Notice how Biden's approval ratings somehow never recovered to pre-Afghanistan withdrawal levels? Biden's approval was in the mid 50's before this, tanked into the lower 40s/upper 30s and never recovered. But the withdrawal didn't impact most people's everyday lives. If so many polls had certain Republican candidates ahead in midterm races (Lake being the biggest example), it calls into question just how incorrect Biden's approval polls truly were and continue to be.

Its going to be 220-215 or so which is a terrible showing for the party out of power in midterms. Only a fool would think the GOP had a good showing even with barely taking the House.

Charlie Crist might be a bad candidate, but Whitmer and Shapiro's opponents ran well behind the general Republican votes in their states. I'd also pump the breaks a bit on DeSantis hype myself because I think success with Florida demographics doesn't necessarily carry over nationally. To be fair you never know how a local or state wide politician will do until they run a national campaign. Running for president is where dreams and ambition go to die and very few come out the other side. Out of the current bunch of Dems, I think Whitmer has the best shot if her message resonates with voters. luvyablue256, and BigTT 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more shitty legislation. Gridlock is always best for the country. Your lack of self-awareness is disturbing -- coping by promoting paralyzing dysfunction, ffs. Like many current repubs the idea of compromising and forging net positive legislation is not what you think government is supposed to do for the American people. Everything now for many repubs is some sort of binary , win/loss existential threats to some idealized America. Most Americans want their government to work, not fight all day in fake battles of ideology and fearmongering. But you keep cope alive, and let's see how gridlock is rewarded in 2024.

Nope, and the rest of the GOP will fall in line once he wins the primary. They know he'd run as an independent if he loses the primary. I give these sumbitches til Thanksgiving before they start coalescing back around him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is independents and even a lot of Republicans will never vote for Trump again.
