Dems won 52% of the vote in 2012 and were 30ish seats from the majority.

Dems won 52% of the vote in 2012 and were 30ish seats from the majority. gerrymandering can hilariously backfire during wave years. Spreading out the dem vote works normally, but if they get energized while your base gets depressed then whoooops have fun fighting incumbency

A lot of the seats are gerrymandered GOP, but at just a slight advantage (I think average 5 points). A big enough wave could knock over a crap ton of seats if you have the right message and campaign. Of course the Democrats suck at both of those but with all the work that the Berniecrat wing is putting in (along with the economic populist message slowly but surely growing in the bad dems) its possible.

A lot of people are signing up to run, either because they're outraged over Trump or because they saw that you don't have to have political experience to win political office

The personal lawyer of the president of the United States sent a series of threatening emails, probably while drunk, to an internet troll and that's not even the top news story for the day. I'm sorry I ever thought nothing could top 2016z

At least Trump had the respect to not have his sexual peccadilloes in the white house but instead he did it in a completely different country, one the liberals say we shouldn't have any respect for anyway! So why are they so worried about the stains on sheets in Moscow? please don't give them ideas / source your quotes

They will try and crush it and likely succeed, then point to the impediments they helped create as reasons why centrist moderates should be run and then vigorously support them. gently caress, they may just outright cheat to get their way.
