spacemang_spliff posted:yeah I think poo poo is so broken in the US it's really hard to make any kind of prediction that is going to have any accuracy at all. The democrats seemed like they were preparing to get owned hard. The republicans seemed like they were preparing to win a poo poo load. I don't think anyone was predicting "Democrats do the best in the midterms for the in-power party since the elections after 9/11" just like very few people seriously thought Trump was going to win in 2016. The dems got lucky enough that any of the smouldering fires that would have consumed them if they had erupted before the midterms were vaguely slowed, is all.

HashtagGirlboss posted:This is imo correct and imo it’s the lesson the democrats will learn and imo it will keep working until conditions degrade to the point that it no longer works, and I don’t know when that will be. I mean, they've won a massive booby prize with this polycrisis still on and still being in charge. So quite possibly within 24 months or so.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:The election is going to result in a hilariously weird outcome where the Republicans have a narrow 4-seat majority in the House that was made possible entirely by districts from New York City that flipped over crime, and in the same election, they lost almost every southern Texas district and every lean Republican district in Ohio. it's a dying nation, poo poo is going to get real weird as things fold.

The repub game plan was always 'tilt the board with the supreme'; an electoral win would have allowed them to move much faster this year, but it only delays things rather then stops them, if certain cases go the way they may. And the dems are going to be handed multiple hot potatoes over the next two quarters as well.

cenotaph posted:"hard-left democratic socialism" is a hell of a phrase. If someone with that many  gets in charge, it's going to be a UKLabour style implosion with no Year of X PMs to save their rear end.If so... cspam was right in the end

Sydin posted:Nancy loving hates the left too, she's just less outwardly animated about it. Hell even then we still got all the "Green New Dream" stuff and her publicly strongarming AOC into changing her vote on Iron Dome funding for no other reason than to humiliate her. Even if the guy is some unparalleled anti-leftist crusader it doesn't matter anyway, what passes for "the left" in elected American politics - particularly at the federal level - is utterly toothless: easily cowed into voting with the majority all the time, every time. They will eagerly line up to lick the new boot stomping on them. Dunno, this is putting the faction that lost new yahk in charge. that kind of  could genuinely put the party in a position for Desantis or turrp to clown on in 2 years.
