[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how many REAL Republicans in Congress (not MAGA - they are NOT Republicans) are secretly relived that the country is rejecting Don the Con so vigorously.[/quote]

Were the candidates who lost big MAGA? [/quote]

Some of them were, for sure. And it is a bigger problem for the GOP for the ones who weren't and still lost bigly.[/quote]

A couple of blue states elected Democrats. Not seeing the news here.[/quote]

Your challenge is that you are not reading/watching the news. Dem judges were retained in PA and 2 Dems won statewide in GA for the public service commission - the party hasn't had candidates win that race in ~25 years. Then the Dems picked up 2 state senate races in MS, breaking the GOP supermajority.

You may lack the ability to discern what happened last night, but pretty certain there are more ketchup stains at the White House and GOP campaign folks are digging into the precinct level results from last night. [/quote]

We saw this transition from red to blue during Trump's 1st term and then Biden fumbled all Dem momentum away. We need a leader who can retain this momentum to emerge by 2028.[/quote]
+1. I"m old. I've been reading DCUM for quite some time. I feel like I've been reading some sort of "GOP/Republicans are done after this. They won't be able to come back" since Obama's first term and yet here we are with another Trump term.

Is everyone just a younger poster and wasn't around for GWB's second term when the sentiment of Dems will now have the majority for the foreseeable future was posted about? Do you not realize this country goes back and forth with elections? Do you not realize that Dems can still f&ck up 26 and 28? Do you really think it will be different this time? [/quote]

It will be difficult for the Dems to eff up 26 and 28 with Trump still in office but if another Biden is nominated in 28, the shift back to red will happen quickly.[/quote]

I'm pretty confident Democrats can F up anything.

But everything is shaping up for a big Blue Wave election next November. And obviously by 2028, Trump's approval ratings will be in the gutter. We are less than one year into Trump's term and he's already down into the 30s. And we have three more years of Trump. His approval rating will likely be in the single digits by then. Democrats could nominate Elmo and he'd win against any Republican.

But knowing Democrats, they'll likely nominate yet another geriatric 80 year old. And with Grandpa Dementia in the Oval Office, the progressives will run amuck with their deeply unpopular social and crime policies. Which will breathe new life into the GOP, and then we get Trump redux, but with someone with more than two brain cells.

Democrats have been gifted a political situation that can really change things  - like a FDR in the Great Depression. But I have zero faith in Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries and the DNC and all the stupid Democratic city councils and school boards that are wrecking the Democratic brand. There all sorts of ways Democrats could mess this up.[/quote]
