75 Senators, 75% of the House, and 75% state Republican trifectas

That'd really get "The Resistance" quaking in their boots for "democracy"

What tbhe fuck did Trump do today tho

Everyone worried about WW3 now

"Get ready"

is this peace?

lol if you proved that the Democratic Party is full of child molesters, we could win by that amount, yeah

the man moves at a mile a minute

@FLanon the inconsistency is breathtaking

I can bear inconsistency when it comes to foreign affairs for strategic purposes

Not domestic policy though

If Trump's intention is to put everyone on edge over Syria, well, he's doing a damn good job of it. If it's to legitimately invade Syria, maybe this whole "madman" thing isn't just a ploy and he's actually crazy.

@FLanon its ogre

also,

this is neat

@FLanon a projection for November

what is

Oh

NOT SO FAST

That's better than a loss of congress, but we'll need at least 230 to enact the agenda.

YOU FORGOT TO PUT THE REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE STATE OF JEFFERSON

@FLanon

That doesn't seem accurate

In any case, we should work to it

This projection is assuming,

The GOP and Trump are in a low point at the moment, so if they still retain the house in these conditions, that's damn good.

Dems win the popular vote by 5 points

so if Dems win by a 5-6 margin, they won't take the house

anything more, than Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi

@FLanon Where do you live again? FL-15?

16

This could be a problem

Trump won FL-15 by 10 points

almost every special election has seen a D shift of at *least* 10 points @FLanon

This is the Dem trying to take Paul Ryan’s seat https://mobile.twitter.com/IronStache

Here's a midterm strategy map: win the states in red and use their influence on surrounding states to win the supermajority.

Yes, as it stands, the situation in the special elections are pretty bad

That enthusiasm gap is a bitch atm

Speaker stepping down

Baaad

Odds of keeping majority went from bad to worse >.>

60% chance Dems take the House @zakattack04

lmao @🎃Boo-ton🎃 @FLanon Alan Grayson was my House Rep back when I was 13 years old, still living in Orlando

Alan Grayson's daughter later went to my friends' and cousins' high school

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 I'm feeling 80%

I think this is her

Just because of how history

half Filipino, half Ashkenazi Jewish

The average swing for the 1st midterm is 32 seats for the Minority Party

With healthcare being the top priority of independents

Victory is near impossible

I think Trump will pull enthusiasm through the roof when it's time

but he'll do so using a government shutdown

so it'll be risky as hell

@Nuke Trump has mentioned that winning the 2018 midterms is important for him

and he's smart enough to know that invading Syria et al would fuck that up

which is why I'm not as worried as so many of the people in this Discord are

obviousyl, we all have our doubts and questions. The thing is, Trump knows certain facts as President that we don't. That's why while I still have my doubts/concerns, I think we'll pull through

http://i.4cdn.org/pol/1523471045221.jpg

also, Trump watches FOX News, and Tucker Carlson himself is talking about this

Yep.

I doubt using a government shutdown will boost only Republican enthusiasm lol

It's going to boost Democrats too

And since Healthcare is the #1 priority... That's the biggest problem

The independents decide elections and they want that free healthcare!

what makes you think independents want free healthcare instead of Obamacare being repealed

Alan Grayson was a good guy

Dem, but one of the only good ones

I liked seeing him roast Bernanke

@Deleted User some like only 20% of all voters want it repealed, the massive majority just wants it changed

(Which means Democrats won again)

But still

I don't think it leans to "free healthcare" specifically

They most likely want more public run healthcare

They want lower costs

That's it.

Which they think is single payer

Because the media has lied to them as always

Look at how popular single payer is. It's actually terrifying

Well, the Rs are going to need to advocate for ways to increase efficiency in the system and explain the costs of this system in the US and why it wouldn't work unlike in Europe.

It doesn't even work in Europe lol

it does in homogenous nations

Not really

Denmark is homogenous

And it's going through the roof their

Like 6 months of wait if you're diagnosed with cancer

In America it's a few days

Still, we'd have to explain costs and all

This is something the Rs have to fight on

Even if we do it doesn't matter because were drowned out by the constant media battage

Barrage

They control the narrative

Then take the narrative back

You can't without having a say in the media lol

There's other types of media
