Democrats Win Clear Mandate By Majority Of America To Pass Progressive Agenda And Stop Trump

[skews13]

And that's exactly what they're going to do.

Just wow. Five Thirty Eight's Nate Silver notes that House Democrats will likely amass close to 60 million votes nationwide when the dust settles on the midterms. That figure will come darn close to reaching the total number of votes cast for the last several GOP presidential nominees, with Donald Trump garnering about 63 million votes, Mitt Romney getting some 61 million in 2012, and John McCain receiving around 60 million votes nationwide.

What that means is the House Democratic majority will have the backing of a number of voters that rivals the number of voters who supported the GOP’s presidential candidate in 2016—and Democrats will have gotten that backing during a frickin' midterm vote. That is simply unprecedented, just like Trump winning the electoral college while losing the popular vote by some 3 million votes was. By comparison, the incoming House GOP majority in 2010 got about 45 million total votes in their wave election.

In other words, House Democrats will head into next year with an unprecedented mandate from an election that sent pundits on a week-long debate over whether it was really a wave. Maybe we should ask the GOP's Orange County contingent what they think after every one of them got washed away.

In fact, the Republican party might want to spend a little more time contemplating California now that they're on track to decisively alienate both America's suburban voters and voters of color. California—where Republicans are now less relevant to major legislative decisions than mosquitoes are to major camping decisions—is where the future national Republican party is heading.

House Democrats' vote totals nationwide near that of Trump's 2016 sum—Can you say 'mandate'?

 

[Oddball]

GOP controls Senate and WH....Good luck with that, chumps.

 

[whitehall]

Republicans control 2/3 of the federal government. What kind of mandate do democrats think they have?

 

[Pilot1]

The small Dem gains in the House, and Republican gains in the Senate were a signal most of the country like the direction in which Trump is taking us.

You need to change your name to rubber band man. You have really stretched on this one.

Bwaaasaaaaahhhhaaaaaahhhaaaaaaa...You do realize that the mandate isnt a mandate unless you take the Senate where you lost more seats. But go ahead, try your bullshit, We the People of the United States are here to put you mother fuckers down..

 

[Mac1958]

Funny how both parties always claim a "mandate".

Then they try to jam their winger agenda down our throats, piss enough of us off, and get their asses thrown out because we're not a winger country.

Funnier yet, they never fucking LEARN.

Silly wingers.

A ray of hope in your otherwise dismal day? Dream on.

They REALLY ARE that stupid folks.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Kinda hard to do without the Senate, POTUS and SCOTUS

skews13

LOL? You won't get shit through.

 

[12icer]

Another waste of bandwidth lying dimshit thread. You didn’t get back half of what you lost with your messiah. AND your gains were because of the rhino Republican blocking TRUMPS agenda and NOT doing what they said they would like REPEALING oshitasscare.

Yes, people always flip 40 seats in the House when they like the agenda

 

[Pilot1]

Yes, people always flip 40 seats in the House when they like the agenda

Compared to OBAMA'S loss of 63 seats in the House, yes it shows they like the agenda.

Yeha, must be a bitch having more money in your pocket from a tax break, or lower gas prices, because of drilling. Damn those evil Republicans for making your life better. What a fucking retard....

If that’s what helps you sleep at night

 

[Pilot1]

If that’s what helps you sleep at night

No what helps me sleep at night is:

A great economy
Very low unemployment
Lower taxes
A tame North Korea
Less needless regulation
A more secure border
A President that likes his own country.

Republicans control 2/3 of the federal government. What kind of mandate do democrats think they have?

/——-/ Ocasio-Cortez is on the case: “.. three chambers of government are the presidency, the Senate, and the House. Her objective is to win control of all three, and they don’t have that now so they’ve gotta work really, really hard. She urged people to join the Justice Democrats. I guess it’s the name of a group. Justice Democrats, #OurTime campaign. It’s a hashtag. To help them identify Democrat House incumbents who are demographically and ideologically out of touch with their districts like Joe Crowley was in his.
