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

[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.

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....

You're a good and obedient little talk radio bunny.

You ignorantly think that everyone else has exactly the same priorities as you, because that's what you're told to think.

And of course, talk radio doesn't discuss the massively increased deficit the tax cuts have created, so that doesn't enter your thought processes.

What a simple little world that must be for you. Just think and say what you're told to think and say, and it's all good.

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'?

A mandate would include both houses of congress and the executive branch. What we have is a mandate for gridlock.

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.

If that’s what helps you sleep at night

Didn't Obama have a "mandate"? And didn't he lead the Democrats to lose over 900 seats?

/——/ Obana’s “Man-date” is Manchella.

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

The one where all the bills they send get forgotten on some ones desk. Just like they did the Rep House during the Obama years.

"Progressive Agenda" ?
When the Democratic Party does everything their way they spread poverty, crime, hate, corruption, destroy the middle class and they bankrupt the government.

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

I truly hops so. Not because I agree with any of it but because I believe it will bring about the violent Civil War this nation needs to clean itself up and rid ourselves of Liberals and Progressives, PERMANENTLY.
