Blue Wave Alert: GOP Loses 10th Straight Legislative Flip

[SaxonJackson]

the parties?...yet you only ***** about 1 of them...you aint fooling anyone mac....

You're absolutely correct!! There is only One Party. Two sides of the same coin. Good cop vs. Bad cop. Both cops (or cop outs).

So the gop hands the dems a win with a fookin' March special election.....All elections need to be held in November.

We fought the most powerful country in the world in 1776 for the right to have representation. I think we can take 1srelluc. People should be able to have their representatives in Washington. Helps the GOP as much as the Dems when the GOP isnt sucking wind like now.

Because they never actually do what they promise.

A little simplistic.

Democrats have flipped a total of 10 state legislative seats in special elections during Donald Trump's second term, while Republicans have flipped…..zero. I don’t make predictions but that doesn’t seem to be a good sign for the GOP.

Last night Bobbi Boudman (D) defeats Dale Fincher (R) in NH Carroll District 7 special election

OH..MGTs dark red district placed more votes for a Democrat than any Republican to replace her. They will now have a runoff.

SPECIAL LEGISLATIVE FLIPS (overperformances)

Texas SD-09 (D+32)
Iowa SD-35 (D+25)
Iowa SD-01 (D+22)
Arkansas HD-70 (D+20)
Mississippi SD-45 (D+19)
Mississippi SD-02 (D+22)
Pennsylvania SD-35 (D+16)
Georgia HD-121 (D+14)
New Hampshire House Carroll 7 (D+13)
Mississippi HD-22 (D+8)

We've said for a long time that if the democrats do NOT make big gains in the midterms, they are not worth voting for.

I’ve always said I expect Texas to turn blue at some point in the near future. It’s coming. You can’t have all the major cities deep blue and the rural areas red, and have people moving from blue states to Texas, to not expect it to turn blue. It’s only a matter time.

Wow!

You'd be celebrating . . . if only you were a Democrat.

You mean that Democrats will move to Texas to get away from their Blue hellholes and then vote for the exact same kind of politicians that turned them into hellholes?

Please tell me Democrats are not really that dumb!

sorry thats not the way mac looks at it...not anymore anyway....

And the Republicrats have nobody to blame but themselves. Things would have been A LOT different had Trump simply kept his campaign promises. America is in a downward spiral and voting has become meaningless.

Trump was never going to keep those promises. Americans were told that, but refused to listen. Instead, white racism had people talking about a woman's laugh or a past relationship before she thought about going into politics.

Voting has not become meaningless. That thinking is why Trump is president.

 

[pknopp]

A little simplistic.

Not at all.

 

[MarcATL]

AIPAC is in full control, not what Trump voters voted for at all... another "forever war" of choice with ZERO US National Interest, solely to please #4 Bibi....

Dragging that bastard Trump around by the nose.

When he comes back to slap him around in the Oval Office, Trump will, no doubt, pull the chair out for him to sit, again.

We're so phucked!

 

[Dorian Mode]

Both sides have failed to keep their promises to the American people. But both sides have been faithful to keep their promises to Israel. Hooray for MIGA!

It's a one party system. But Trump, specifically, prompted me to take "the black pill."

You never give up, do you? You think politicians are honest, never lie, keep their campaign promises at all costs, full of integrity, wake up every morning and can't wait to get to work and tell the lobbyists to **** off so they can do something great for the working class. I think quite a lot of people here really need to stop listening to politicians and just watch what they do. Moreover, what's your beef with Trump? You didn't vote for him. Didn't you just say yesterday concerning Trump:

"One would have to be triple retarded to vote for promises that they know won't be kept. Only a triple retarded person would willingly vote for a con artist."

So, either you are triple retarded for voting for the con man Trump, or you didn't and you will just have to wait another 3 years until he is out of office.

ILMAO.............It's because he did Democracks are cracked. Trump could cure cancer and leftists would cry for cancer.

First, Trump cannot govern on polls, his team needs to do a better job of marketing. If this were the calm speaking Trump of the 1980s, when he was a debonair and intellectual presenter, Americans would realize how much good he has done on the economic side with the $1000 to newborns, this is HUGE for families and it is grossly undersold, I would be telling parents "your kids could have $100k+ by the time they are 21, his executive action to deny corporate purchasing of matrimonial homes etc.

Trump in the 1980s would have calmly presented this with confidence and citizens would internalize it as they did the Trump brand which he was so good at promoting.

As it were, these losses will force Trump to get a big win in USMCA negotiations which occur in June. This means he will probably negotiate with Mexico and secure a separate deal, Canada will have to capitulate market access as ANY free market nation would and perhaps for once Canadian consumers will win.

Market access is important to Trumps wins to ensure U.S companies can produce in America and export to Canada and elsewhere, It is worth trillions over decades of access. His team will be pushing dairy, banking (The "Big Four" in Canada are all worth the most for a reason, this is a huge opportunity for the U.S if they gain access, literally hundreds of billions in PROFITS a year), telecom etc.

It should be a win/win but Canadian consumers continue to be screwed over just as we do in regards to our human rights here. These losses for Trump could end up being a consumer boon for Canadians if all goes well.

Trump was a terrible president the first time and had no business being re-elected. Trump cannot govern; he was handed a winning economy each time he took office and has squandered it. Trump would not have been elected in the 1980s because he was bankrupting his businesses at that time, and it would have been a real concern and a campaign issue. He had not fooled everyone by being a star in a reality TV show at that time.

Lower the deficit
control the border
no voluntary wars
release the Epstein files
lower costs for Americans
He's achieved #2 only. The rest have been betrayals as he has done the opposite.

Actually he lowered the deficit from Biden's $2T a year to $240b a year according to the CBO. Remember, Trump's first budget is just getting appropriated.

also, some costs are lower for Americans. Gas, eggs, many prescriptions, mortgages, Federal taxes, etc.

Their fallacy is thinking that democrats would leave democrat hell holes. TX & FL will get redder not bluer.
