Trump administration 2024-2028

Hmmm…nope!

He just shit-canned the one moderating but useless influence in the Oval Office and replaced her with Santa Monica Goebbels. That tells me he’s going balls to the wall.

This is non-negotionable, if that's all you have then you have nothing, and need to post in another forum.

I'm pretty sure you don't hold an appointment here to decide what people are permitted to discuss.

2002: R+2, R+8, D+3

2024: R+4, D+2, 0
2026: D+7, D+42, D+5 (so far)

How about that 2010 election. So very, very, long ago. Makes 2026 "historic".


With most commentators depending on polls, I'd be surprised if anyone came close to predicting what happened if the polls were unable to measure it.

I think Ytz is saying this is historic numbers for Democrat's.

He keeps going by national numbers. Notice how he ignored the state houses flipped. Or how he ignored the example of Texas waking up to news they'll be California in January. Or the fact that the 2010 midterms, ass whooping that they were, still saw the Democrats hold the Senate. This was almost like a good chunk of America had an anaphylactic reaction to the GOP.

Like I keep saying, if California or New York changed every state wide position to Republican in a single election, I would call that historic too. We have Republicans who get this. But somehow, randos in Canada don't.

In every picture, Miller actually looks like a cartoonishly bad villain, but he's a straight up sociopath.

Only thing missing is him holding a white Persian cat.

This cracked me up so bad!

I worry that this is the take the Democrats will have, and decide to squander their good will on fringe far left silliness.

The electorate reacted to MAGA, that doesn't make them full-blown Democrats. It means they punished the worst excesses of the MAGA crowd, but doesn't signify a hard shift to the left.

I hope they learn what the LPC seem to have learned, being in the centre beats fighting on the margins.

Yes; it's necessary to properly situate the estimate for it to be "historic". At least that's marginally better than "in-con-ceivable!".

No need to worry. The far left silliness was right out declared in the open well prior to the election.
