Thats the general consensus I am getting, reading between the words in liberal articles. It seems like they shifted from We got this, to get out there and vote!!!!!! to not being so optimistic about what they originally projected. Both sides are going to have a record voter turn out.

They will, and their supporters know it. That's why they're already starting the "rigged!" or "interference!" or "suppression!" cries. Y'kno, the same cries that achieved nothing in 2016, yet probably took more effort at the end of the day than actually fixing the issues that make people not want to vote Democrat would.

When they're taking completely neutral laws, acting as if only one particular group is being affected even though the laws are pretty much 100% objective in nature, then assuming that everyone in that group would have voted Democrat in the first place? Yeah, they're pretty unreasonable claims, especially as far as claiming they changed the outcome.

Dems will probably win the House but lose the Senate. They will gain is the power to block legislation (which Republicans are having a tough time passing even with control of both houses) and to start an actual investigation into Trump.

However, Trump's terrible court picks will still go through the Senate and his abuse of executive powers will still go on.

Lmao this

So many Republican ads talking shit about Pelosi for some fucking reason instead of talking about what they're actually running on

Democratic attack ads here will call out the Republican candidates and then explain their stance and why it's supposedly better

Sad thing is the mindless Republican ads are gonna work

I don't believe in "speaking things into existence" or any of that voodoo shit, but I do know that people can take words to heart and lean into them so I haven't spoken about the mid-terms at all.

But I don't trust the Dems with campaigning and I don't trust stupid Americans not to vote against themselves. I'm holding my breath and taking nothing for granted (including some kind of insane last ditch Russian troll supported play from the right).

I think it's probably a good thing democrats aren't just assuming they will win this time around. It's kind of like, maybe they'll actually show up because of it, instead of assuming they have it in their pockets. That in mind though historically speaking dems are not that reliable for turnout in the midterms.

Remember that topic you made asking about the Democrats platform that you abandoned after tons of people responded giving you the answers and sources? That was embarrassing for you.

Anyways, "anti-trump" is a perfectly fine platform even if it was their only one. (It's not, as we proved to you, but you ran away)
