Yeah you guys have the optics moment for now, until the military starts shooting college kids for having a red and black pin on their lapel because Donald Trump declared an IDEA a terrorist organization. Which he has already shown is just a way for him to legally justify murder by blowing up random boats merely suspected of drug trafficking. Shit, they even openly admit it with shit like JD Vance saying “it’s not a good idea to go fishing in that part of the world”
I agree that it’s more nuanced than what I said in this post, I just can’t get into that with just 200 characters. It’s not a solution, it’s just something we have to get right. The Democratic Party needs to show some fight, because not doing so plays into Trump’s hands.
It’s based on the approval raiting for republicans and democrats, it’s also based on the amount of money that’s being funneled into the GOP right now, it’s that favorable senate map republicans have as well, you do know the people who spend more and have more money during mid terms win right.
There is Dan Osborn in Nebraska, an independent who has a chance to shake up the senate map, or potentially Mary Peltola in Alaska. Susan Collins is vulnerable in Maine, and Roy Cooper is very popular in North Carolina. Iowa and Ohio are reaches, but never say die. Texas also has the potential to be a close race. You never know until you see the results on election night.
That inflation was caused directly by Trump, starting to increase during his administration, before peaking in Biden’s and dropping dramatically after his policies went to work. Trump’s tariffs make the prices we pay go up, and he has done NOTHING to improve the job market, while instead giving billionaires and corporations more tax breaks.
The republicans have outspent Dan Osborn by alomost 5 to 1 and have over 1 million dollars cash on hand this election will not be close. In non special elections which these mid terms aren’t Alaska has gone Republican by 10+ points this also won’t be close. Susan Collins might lose her seat and let’s say Roy cooper wins in North Carolina democrats still don’t hold a majority in the senate. Texas won’t be close it moved further to the right than 2020.
It won’t ever flip Texas democrats are leaving the state cause it’s gone to right wing for them. These tech bros coming in from other states aren’t progressive they are conservative asf. Texas Hispanics all have moved to the right as well and there is also a converted effort to move republicans out of red states and move them into Texas l.
If Mary Peltola were to run for Senate, that race will be much closer than that. Alaskan politics are quite a unique enigma, and she found a way to win Alaska’s at-large House Seat twice. With Nebraska, it’s still over a year out. Osborn got it to within 7 points in a year that heavily favored the GOP. In a year that likely is more favorable for Democrats, that margin could absolutely get closer, and I would imagine more money gets poured into his campaign over the next 13 and a half months.
The reason they win the Alaska house seat again was because it was a special election, turn out was a lot lower in Alaska than it is for a regular election. Also no polling shows any favorably to the democrats this year, this isn’t a Democrat leaning year this is quite literally as toss up as it gets. I hope you know 7 point isn’t close nor is it went you are being outspent 5 to 1. Also Osborn isn’t a liberal he is still a conservative that will side with trump on most issues.
“Blame Biden” doesn’t work anymore, the problems we have now are Trump’s responsibility. Besides, Biden did actually get inflation back down into the 2.5-3.5% range before his term ended. Nonetheless, things are still unaffordable, and since April, the inflation rate has continued to rise, and is expected to continue on that trend for this month as well.
I went to motherfuckin Ardrey Kell High School, so believe me when I tell you, them Charlotte suburbanites are racist. You know how many times my school made the local news because some dipshit kid did a racism? Who do you think taught those Ballantyne Country Club shitheads to be like that?
I hope you do know that inflation being that high while interest rates were high asf while Biden also diluted the job numbers to keep the interest rates high is a reason we are in the recession, they cut 1 MILLION jobs off of Bidens total numbers for last year to say that, that isn’t a recession starter idk what is.
