November's Red Tsunami

Good read. Let's hope Wayne Allyn Root is correct and the uncivilized leftists lose biggly in November. Root called it in 2016 and he strongly believe the left will lose again. The GOP'ers just might pick up seats.

I mean he just predicts Republicans to win big every year and he doesn’t have any good analysis in that article, so I don’t give much credence to his prediction. And it’s not like he really called it in 2016, he said Trump would win, but he called a ten percent landslide.

Your boy is a CT, and you should stop drinking the kool aid.

"I'm talking about the timing of the caravan coming from Honduras, Guatemala and Mexico to the U.S. border. I suspect this is the work of liberal, socialist and communist activists under the direction of George Soros (and other America-hating, open-borders-loving billionaire donors to the Democrat Party). They wanted to embarrass Trump and cause an international incident. But boy, did they miscalculate."

If you really think the republicans are going to pick up seats, put your money where your mouth is.

It is also likely leftists will not win the House.

Mathematically speaking, Democrats have better chances of taking the House than Republicans have of keeping the Senate. Think about that.

History disagrees. The president's party nearly always loses seats in the midterms.

Also, from the article:

I predicted Trump's victory because 10,000 to 20,000 people were showing up to his events in 2016. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton was attracting hundreds. It was clear Democrats were delusional.

Fast forward to today. Trump attracts 10,000 or more to rallies in small towns such as Elko, Nevada. He attracts 100,000 RSVPs to a Houston rally for Ted Cruz. Yet the potential 2020 Democrat presidential front-runner, Joe Biden, comes to Las Vegas and attracts 500 to a union hall.

This simply isn't a valid comparison. He's comparing differences in turnout between two presidential candidates to differences in turnout between the sitting president and a guy who currently holds no political office and hasn't even announced candidacy for 2020. Of course more people are showing up at Trump's rallies.

Nearly always. Nearly. Yeah, like I said, it is likely GOP'ers will keep the House. It's happened before and can happen again. I'll LMAO if 2016 repeats itself. :)

I certainly hope he is this time. Kicking more of the slimy leftist out of office is always a good thing for the nation.

I’m looking at it as 4 quarters for the time zones, as in your NBA thread, with many states having two zones. If Dems don’t score big in the House in the East, it will be a short night for flipping the House. While PA is the wild-card, a poor showing in so-called ‘flippable’ seats in NJ, NY, NC, VA, and FL will render CA and the central/mountain zones meaningless.

Northeast gop governors are safe. Moving state offices off of potus years was a slick gop move. I’ll call it REDMAP 1990. Another gop blueprint is to Not run a House candidate in mid-term years and then run one in potus years. MA, TX and FL are three good examples this term.

And then there’s the 99 state bodies, those remappers, with variations nationwide in how many bodies are up for voting and what % of each body is up for voting. Ballotpedia is great there, but overwhelming.
