There have been a few races in areas where Relublicans dominated for Decades. Those areas produced VERY close races lately. Ohio was the latest example. It's even worse because Republicans dumped 5 million dollars in Ohio campaigning when the Democrats only dumped 1 million dollars.

I know people on this board like to say Trump is guaranteed to win in 2020. These midterms seem to be an indication that this won't happen.

So the Trump endorsed guy wins, and they're somehow in trouble.

Imagine if the Democrat won and the Republican was "very close". Would you be talking how the Dems are in trouble?

Curious.

It's not overconfidence. I'm pointing out a change and people should take notice. Plus, if overconfidence can bite Democrats in the ass then you best believe it can bite Republicans in the ass.

You see, this is where you lose. This aura of acting like the "educated" people are smarter than the "dumb" Trump voters.

This snobbish elitist crap is what made you lose in 2016. Where, if you subscribe to my philosophy, I believe there are educated people on both sides. It's just that certain people hold certain principles higher to them, and hold different philosophies. Different principles are more/less important to some people.

But let's pretend that all voters of X are "dumb!!!"

Let's get back to respecting your common countrymen.

Worse case scenario: Democrats win a bunch of elections, they then go back to acting smug and holier than thou, ramping up their rhetoric about how everyone is racist, insulting gun owners and people from rural areas, etc. and then they lose a bunch of elections to Republicans in the years following.

Lena Dunham telling Bernie voters to "get over it" the day after the DNC/Hillary collusion emails leaked was quite effective.

Trump is far from guaranteed to win, but the midterm doesn't mean he will lose. The Republicans gained 60 seats in the House and 6 in the Senate in 2010 and then Obama beat Romney in 2012.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if a republican challenger shows up.

Yeah, the midterms is always bad news for the party in power.

The Democrats getting the ability to obstruct and destroy the economy over the next two years is also going to be detrimental to Trump who will get the blame.

It would mean that he is in far more danger of being impeached, and then possibly removed from office. Hes on pretty thin ice if Mueller can turn up anything directly linking him to a crime
