Soothing Vapors posted:if anyone needs a pick me up because you're bummed that your unrealistic expectations for last night didn't come true, Laura Loomer is losing her loving mind because she feels that Daddy Trump and Fox News both let her down by not broadcasting her insanity 24/7 and she's super depressed Yeah, losing the senate is bad but that was expected and right now I consider a stalemate a victory. The dems are saying all the right things now about investigations despite this thread freaking out and the chuds are losing their minds.

Paradoxish posted:The Senate results really are bad. I know a lot of people here have been papering this over by saying we never really had a shot (which is true to some degree), but that doesn't change the fact that a +2R result is just not good news. I'm also thinking that 2018 is pretty drat near peak anti-Trump and I'm not sure that we're going to do better in 2020. Combine that with the fact that it may be difficult to defend some of these house pick-ups and I'm concerned. Agreed, but 2020 will be about trump himself, I think we might get an even bigger turnout to try to push his rear end out. He has 2 more years to enrage people against him and a probable economic downturn coming.

eke out posted:for anyone curious about subpoena power issues, here's a great read about how House Republicans successfully won cases allowing them to subpoena a ton of political documents then spent this year furiously trying to get the judge to take back her holding once they realized they'd be losing power well thats good news. Unzip and Attack posted:Someone up thread asked if GOP Senators would block all Dem SCOTUS nominees in 2020. McCain and others promised they would do so if Clinton won in '16. they would have anyway. at best last night we would have broke even with them.

Chard posted:I want so badly to unclench, let my guard down... i would to an extent. the senate loss sucks but it shows we have the raw numbers out there when 2020 rolls around for trump so it might be even bigger turn outs. we have the house and they will do investigations. we had a ton of wins for the left and minorities of all stripes. some red states got redder. but blue dogs lost badly so the partisan divide is fortifying.

Lightning Knight posted:I mean this would be a clever plan if Donald Trump wasn't so publicly lovely and electoral poison to Democratic voters. Trump thinks he's god's gift to the nation and everyone loves him so he doesn't comprehend that associating with him is the quickest way to lose your seat as a D lawmaker. If he were say, Mitt Romney, I'd be afraid this would work. yeah, basically the only thing uniting the DNC is hating trump. so yeah, that kinda backfires on him.
