Republicans Set to Gain Seats in 2018

[Faun]

Trump's problem is his so called wins keep being overshadow by his losses. Too bad for Trump Corporate America can't vote

Politics are always give and take...shall we bring up all of Obama's losses?
One day you libs will recognize that people work for corporations and hold 401Ks with them...Have you checked yours lately?

Prior to Democrat losses while Obama was president were big gains for Democrats while Bush was president. Now it appears that the pendulum might be swinging back to the left again.

Means nothing??? It means Democrats are within 1 vote of controlling the Senate.

dems are within 3......don't forget Pence

Democrats need 2 more seats to take over the Senate.

Funny how you have to go to an article written before Democrats had big wins in the last two elections (Virginia and Alabama). Those seats are not as likely to go Republican as they may have appeared over last summer.

Democrats will lose millions of white voters by the time the 2018 elections come around.

I don't think swinging to the left means GOP control of the courts and the first tax reform bill in 30 years...wait till the people see their new one page return...the reason the dems had gains under Bush is because the men in the Bush family are hinged at the waist...total push overs and swamp dwellers...but you can dream...

The GOP only controls the courts until the next Democrat president is sworn in and replaces them. The only court that doesn't apply to is the U.S. Supreme Court. And if Democrats gain 2 more seats in the Senate in the next election, they can prevent Trump from replacing any justices on that bench, should they choose to do so.

If Democrats hadn’t lost millions of white voters already there literally wouldn’t be a Republican Party today.

The “greatest generation”(the last normal group) is dead and buried, the baby boomers are the idiots who started the hippy movement, the gen Xers are largely irrelevant and libertarian leaning and the millennials are largely anti-white fascists, but yet Trump still won the election somehow because most of the baby boom Democrats switched parties.

Moore loss means nothing.
7 Senate seats most likely to flip in 2018

The exit polls from that race mean a lot and they should scare the shit out of the GOP.

• Moore won only older voters. Among those 18-44, he got walloped by 23 points.
• Women with children made up one in every five voters in Alabama on Tuesday. And man, did they revolt against Moore by a 2 to 1 margin.
• Moderates voted for Jones.
• In 2016, President Donald Trump carried Alabama by almost 28 points. In 2017, voters in Alabama rejected Trump twice -- first by beating appointed Sen. Luther Strange in a Republican runoff and then by choosing Jones over Moore on Tuesday night. And you can see why. Trump's approval rating in the exit poll was only 48%.
• Jones won the election on values, a key issue for the GOP for decades.
• The Democrat party was more popular than the Republican party in a state that hasn't elected a Democratic Senator in 25 years.
• Republicans are an increasingly a rural party only. Democratic votes in the growing city centers overwhelmed the smaller, less populated areas that continued to perform for Republicans.
• Black voters are incredibly energized, much more so than in 2016.

Yesterdays election meant nothing......if Trump would run for re-election today he would win big in Alabama

College Towns
Turnout in college towns was especially high in the Senate race, as was the antipathy toward Mr. Moore. Mr. Trump won Lee County, home to Auburn University, with 58 percent of the vote; Mr. Moore won just 41 percent.

College students “dislike Trump intensely, disagree dramatically with the G.O.P. on most or all social issues, and regard Republicans as being from a moon of Jupiter,” said Larry J. Sabato, the director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia. “Over time, this will be deadly to the G.O.P.”

There won’t be a another Democrat President that actually has any time to do anything.

Federal judges need to retire to be replaced and there have been a record number of retirements this year...the SCOTUS will be conservative for years to come...there will be another retire or death before Trump's first term is over...

Fucking retard.... when Jones takes his seat in the Senate, Republicans will hold a slim lead, 51-49 (2 of whom are Independents who caucus with Dems).

As I said, and you prove too ignorant to comprehend ... if Democrats gain just 2 more seats, they will lead 51-49 and the VP no longer matters -- Democrats take charge of the Senate, the Legislative Calendar, and all of the committees in the Senate.

Anti-white racism will completely flip millennials and generation z to the alt-right.

Republicans are just useless idiots who don’t understand that “identity politics” is just politics in a multicultural and multiracial country that revolves around a globalized world.

 

[g5000]

Yeah and as the economy gets stronger the GOP will continue to benefit...No one that I know wants Obama's growth rate and sluggish job growth back again...not even the liberals that I know...

Man, you are one dumb shit. Trump hasn't even matched Obama's WORST job growth rate.


The Jobs Report Misled You, Job & Wage Growth Are Actually Decelerating

This give us a 3-month average monthly job gain of 170k, a 6-month average of 178k, and a year-to-date average of 174k. These numbers compare with average job growth of 187k in 2016, 226k in 2015, and 250k in 2014.

Imbecile.... politics is a pendulum, usually swinging away from the party of the president. It swung to the right while Obama was president and now it's begun swinging back to the left. Does that mean it will swing more to the left? No, no one knows. But so far since Trump's been president, it has been swinging that way. And yesterday, in one of the reddest states in the nation, Alabama elected a pro-choice, pro-gun control, Liberal Democrat. The only Republicans who aren't rattled by that are the ones who aren't paying attention.

Yeah. You go ahead and deny the facts. It's what you do.

There's a reason I called you one dumb shit.
