and as the old immunity the democrats did have is gone we can hope they go for the jugular

They just have to be smart about it.

Democratic Senate seats up in 2018: 26

GOP Senate seats up in 2018: 6

I feel like this fact should be brought up during any analysis of how the Senate played out because it's kind of important
I mean, this is relevant to so many hot takes. "BUT THE DEMOCRATS WON THE POPULAR VOTE HOW DID THEY LOSE SENATE SEATS"

Winning more votes in the Senate but losing seats is exactly what you'd expect when defending 4 times more seats than your opponent
I guess technically the GOP was 9 seats because of retirements, but that still means the Democrats were defending 3 times as many seats as the Republicans. It was an extremely rough Senate map and I don't think messaging caused the losses

the "won the popular vote" line they are touting is utter tard

the number they are harping on is the total numer of voted the dems got NATIONALY

while the senate elections were all state elections

no shit the dems had higher combined number nationaly when california voted dem

yeah, national popular vote means jack shit, because the vast majority of that vote wouldn't have voted for any specific senator.

and that whole one place, probs Cali(??) had 2 Dems fighting it out no one else

they, of course, only voted for their senatorial race.

So whoever the fuck is trying to use that as a reason is actually fucking retarded.

why the fuck do people think trump is fascist

real answers pls

because they are functionally retarded.

They’re politically illiterate

you should really ask them

They couldn’t define fascism if they wanted to

I try not to poke that beehive

in "public" internet places

how is he NOT a fascist?

he was democratically elected

that's one example

So were real fascists

he doesn't want a white ethnostate

The reason he’s not fascist is because he wants to loosen state control

hitler inherited the seat of power

yeah but he's racist, and he wants to kill minorities and lgbt people

It’s literally the republican manifesto iirc to delegate power to the people

after mysterious circumstances killed the previous ruler

Or states in this case

A fascist would centralize all power around himself and establish totalitarian rule

also, do you guys think there's some big conspiracy going on from the people who are really in charge to push everyone to the right

Aka no things such as states rights

because everything the left is doing weakens them

@Angus no, they’re just out of touch

It’s what elitism does

they are using the tactic of lying over and over until it sticks
