Democrats score big wins in Florida and Georgia, as the GOP’s election woes continue
The more Donald Trump and his party pretend they don’t have an electoral problem, the more Republicans lose winnable elections.www.ms.now
Your author there, Steve Benen said...
"...the conventional wisdom was that Republicans had entered an era of electoral dominance."
I'm in the club; I never heard that. Am I the only one that read the source? Steve is making up that We Republicans thought We had it in the bag forever and ever, Amen. Then the loss is most crushing. This is bush league red herring stuff.
And Astrostar made a whole thread about it.

You have completely missed the point, which is that voters no longer trust the gaslighting fake numbers coming out of Trump's corrupt government.
The bogus, bullshit economic data now being shoveled upon us by this White House doesn't match the reality people are dealing with out in the real world.
This is why Republicans can't win elections anymore.
The White House has tried to shift the narrative surrounding affordability concerns since Republicans were handed bruising losses during last month’s off-year elections that were the primary issue at the ballot box. Polling has consistently found Trump is underwater on dealing with inflation and his handling of the economy that had reliably been his top issue and helped propel him back to the Oval Office.
Trump tries to convince a skeptical public his policies are lowering prices
President Donald Trump is hitting the road to lay out his administration’s case that it his economic agenda is delivering on lowering prices for Americans.

But those changes aren’t likely to affect car prices any time soon, according to industry experts. Meanwhile, the cost for everything from groceries to utility bills remains stubbornly high, and Democrats have been buoyed by a set of election wins in New Jersey, Virginia and recently Tennessee, where affordability concerns took center stage.
Both Republicans’ and independents’ ratings of Trump have worsened significantly since last month. Republicans’ approval has fallen seven points to 84%, while independents’ has slipped eight points to 25%. Republicans’ rating is the lowest of Trump’s second term, while independents’ is the worst in either term. Trump’s prior low point among independents, 29%, was last recorded in July and, prior to that, was only seen once before, in August 2017.
Trump's Approval Rating Drops to 36%, New Second-Term Low
President Donald Trump's job approval rating has slipped to a new second-term low point and is approaching his all-time low of 34%.

You will notice Trump doesn’t address the many rising costs his worried supporter cited, other than asserting lower energy costs are more important than all of them. And more importantly, he’s a billionaire lecturing struggling families to buck up and realize how great things are. His advisors have to be cringing.
At the moment, it’s hard to find a Republican political operative, pollster, or elected official outside the White House who doesn’t recognize that voter concerns over “affordability” (a term covering both cost-of-living indicators and efforts to increase the supply of desirable goods and services like housing, health care, and child care) are an immediate crisis for the party that runs the federal government. It has palpably fed major offyear Democrats gains in 2025. It’s very high on every list of public concerns. And a sizable percentage of Trump’s own 2024 voters — the voters his party needs in order to hang onto control of Congress next year — don’t think he’s doing a good job on these issues, as a new large-sample Politico poll dramatized:

Glad to see that hororary English degree from Trump University wasn't wasted on you fool.
Keep up the good work.
Apt, Liable, Likely
Posted by amastyleinsiderAlthough these words are sometimes used interchangeably, particularly in infinitive constructions (apt to fall, liable to fall, likely to fall),1,2 using them interchangeably obscures subtle yet important distinctions between them.
Of the three, it seems that apt is the one most often used in its proper sense—perhaps because, unlike liable and likely, which both stress a potential consequence and thus are often confused, apt simply stresses inherent tendency (eg, “Elmer is apt to be a bit unsteady on his feet”).3 Also, whereas liable and likely refer to consequences and thus most commonly to conditions that will become manifest in the future, apt usually refers to conditions manifest in the past or present.1 In addition, some authorities hold that apt is perhaps most commonly used when referring to persons, although it can refer to nonhuman or inanimate subjects as well.1

You can think that if it makes you feel like less of an idiot, but the senate looks safely Republican.
You are probably right that Republicans can never seem to figure out how to govern effectively.
Democrats will obviously end the filibuster the first chance they get, we know that because only Manchin and Sinema saved it.
At the end of January there may be another shutdown and SNAP won't get democrats to end the shutdown because it is fully funded, so there could be another record shutdown unless Thune gets his head out of his ass.
Don't count your chickens, Republicans always outperform the polls.

Thank you. Now for a brand new question...
So when your guy was in the US Bureau of Labor Statistics was The Word of God but now that it's my guy they are full of $h!t?
Or...
Or...
Wasn't that lady Baby Jesus fired off by hundreds of percent? That would be like your boss asking how many anal plugs you sold yesterday and you told him "three" when the real number you sold was one. One was shop lifted and we're not sure where the other one is.

King Troll, to you. Sir!
When someone goes outta their way to not answer a simple question until I get an answer trolling passes the time but then at this point you answering yes or no yields more questions that you won't answer so yea, exactly like herding cats.

Trump will be looking under rocks all over this Country to replace those three cretins.Democrats score big wins in Florida and Georgia, as the GOP’s election woes continue
The more Donald Trump and his party pretend they don’t have an electoral problem, the more Republicans lose winnable elections.
The Democrats embarrassed Trump yesterday by stealing three elections in the sorry States of Florida and Georgia. And, another butt kicking for the dictator is on the horizon coming in November. Between now and then, Trump will most likely be compiling his list of scapegoats for those epic defeats. At least Hegseth, Patel and the dog assassin Noem won't have to worry; they will be long gone as Trump tries to cut his losses.
Bigly!!!
