Paul not so much, I think they agree on alot

2018-08-22 00:36:49 UTC  

I've seen comparisons of Trump and Clinton. Both had a really messy start. Both are actually kinda moderate when you get to the issues. Both were heavily demonized by the other side.

Clinton also led to the Republicans gaining control of Congress for the first time in a very, very long time. (The Republican Revolution as it was called)

2018-08-22 00:37:02 UTC  

Most Republican officials are absolute scum. I'd piss on them if they were on fire, then light them on fire again.

2018-08-22 00:37:26 UTC  

Yeah well. Army you got. You've only got two choices for the most part.

2018-08-22 00:37:30 UTC  

hmm oceans 8 is already out on 1080 web-dl ... I didnt even know it was out

2018-08-22 00:37:42 UTC  

not even going to waste the bw

2018-08-22 00:38:01 UTC

2018-08-22 00:38:12 UTC  

I think this came out way to early for Midterms

2018-08-22 00:38:34 UTC  

if anything it'll energize Trumps base

2018-08-22 00:38:42 UTC  

as a continued witch hunt

2018-08-22 00:39:02 UTC  

No doubt the democrats have plans laid. They probably have a schedule of manufactured scandals from now until November.

2018-08-22 00:40:13 UTC  

They're all scum. Republicans are stupid weakling scum, and democrats are conniving manipulating scum.

2018-08-22 00:41:00 UTC  

There might be five national politicians that aren't complete human garbage. Maybe.

2018-08-22 00:41:09 UTC  

Correct, they want to do as little as possible to keep their jobs

2018-08-22 00:41:20 UTC  

@LotheronPrime

I don't think so. The momentum in basically all elections to this point has been heavily Democrat favored and reinforced the margins each one is suggesting. Energy is very much on the Democrats side and the Republican base seems angry with the mainline Republicans.

Add to this that Trump is kinda offensive to the suburban voters that tend to drive midterm results (the working class voters Trump brought in usually stay home during the midterms).

The Blue wave is looking very likely.

2018-08-22 00:41:22 UTC  

because they are egomaniacs w

2018-08-22 00:41:45 UTC  

I woudln't count on a Blue Wave

2018-08-22 00:41:57 UTC  

There are hardly any ex trump supporters

2018-08-22 00:41:59 UTC  

I would. I'll actually make you a bet if you want.

2018-08-22 00:42:06 UTC  

there are walk-away campaigns

2018-08-22 00:42:20 UTC  

think about that

2018-08-22 00:42:21 UTC  

Didn't matter the second the Republican press picked up on it.

2018-08-22 00:42:32 UTC  

And I haven't heard it driving people towards the Republicans.

2018-08-22 00:42:49 UTC  

It doesn't need to

2018-08-22 00:42:53 UTC  

Trump's black approval rating is a pretty big deal.

2018-08-22 00:43:01 UTC  

and hispanic

2018-08-22 00:43:05 UTC  

And the midterms are decided in the suburbs. Middle class women have been driving the resistance.

2018-08-22 00:43:06 UTC  

It's in the 30s now isn't it?

2018-08-22 00:43:14 UTC  

Yeah. It's histroically high.

2018-08-22 00:43:15 UTC  

People not voting for dems or voting third party against a solid repub bloc has the same result

2018-08-22 00:43:27 UTC  

Really what is happening is that the political divide is becoming a male/female divide.

2018-08-22 00:43:37 UTC  

nah

2018-08-22 00:43:49 UTC  

With millennial women being the tightest block. As tight as blacks now.

2018-08-22 00:43:49 UTC  

authoritarian and libertarian

2018-08-22 00:44:03 UTC  

>Middle class women have been driving the resistance.
Really makes you ponder women's suffrage

2018-08-22 00:44:23 UTC  

I'd argue it was #MeToo.

2018-08-22 00:44:40 UTC  

They've basically re-written alot of the Democratic party at this point.

2018-08-22 00:44:53 UTC  

Didn't the political divide map closest to guns?

2018-08-22 00:45:01 UTC  

Issue-wise, yes.

2018-08-22 00:45:14 UTC  

It's also heavily decided by population density.

2018-08-22 00:45:17 UTC  

that would be authoritarian vs libertarian
