@FLanon BM predicted that.
As far as BM reported, we had a 2.5 point swing
He said the cubans would swing Republican because Trump wasn't on the ballet.
And how is that not just an excuse on another coin?
@Deleted User True, it doesn't guarantee a Democratic victory
@FLanon it's not an excuse.
it's an explanation for why the swing happened.
Yeah and I explained on why the swing happened in Arizona
And it's not something we can really parade as a victory because in that case, that was a one off.
And it's legitimate
Nah, it was still in line with the national average so far.
17 points.
2 points?
Arizona
You said Arizona
The scandal effect.
The GOP did better than Trump in the 6th district
Anyways, this korea situation is something to keep an eye on, I'm telling you, that's the way to the moderates, the only way.
Look my point is maybe we should consider compromising on some issues until we can make them more popular.
The GOP has "compromised" for the last 60 fucking years, no more.
And affluent suburban districts like the 6th are the ones that the Democrats are trying to flip in the midterms
You can't keep control of congress supporting unpopular positions
Compromise only alienates the core.
The core isn't why you win
It's the swing voters
This geopolitical situation is only a plus.
Yes it is!
The Independents
The core will still vote Republican most of the time.
We could win 2018 easily if we got enough of the core vote
it's the independents that change sides
It's turnout
idaho is probably looking to expand Medicaid so the GOP is sorta going to left on Healthcare in some places
Well our turnout is going to be lower in the current situation.
If we cuck and cuck and cuck, they won't turnout!
Just because of history
@Walter Johnson Yeah, maybe we need to.
"muh history"
fuck off
That isn't why Trump won
@FLanon 2002 is literally the only election in which the party in power gained seats during the midterms bud./
