And a knowledge of how important geography is in our electoral system

Sorry I can't be more hopeful. It comes from many irl conversations and overhears

We'll know more after primaries are over and polling is more focused.

I'm sticking with a possible 2-4 majority in the US House.

Should Dems win the House, the federal government will be paralyzed and the "do something" gang will be outraged. More petulant boycotting of the Democratic Party

Special elections are not indicative of a midterm that will take place after Trump moderates and goes on tour.

The special election results were low turnout, only moderate winning margins at best. MAGA is too stupid to show up for off schedule events. And they didn't.

3 seat majority.

No evidence for that.

Trump still commands roughly 40% approval.

That's sobering.

Of course, the @nytimes.com had to play to the trendy Texas delusional Blue voter and ruin the entire piece

Trump won Texas by 1.5 million votes, not "double digits."

"There are also signs that Republicans could be in danger in two more states where Mr. Trump won by double digits: Iowa and Texas."

He's also got some new, actual scientists in the CDC to deal with.

RFK has a lot of bending forward in his future.

And this is all before Trump enters a moderation campaign this summer, accompanied by a four month long rally tour.

The "special military operation" in Iran will be over in about a month.

The Stock Market, (AKA The Economy) will be soaring.

Without relocation, all Dems have is turnout. Not enough

Why a Democratic Senate, Once Unthinkable, Is a Real Possibility

Kamala Harris was ahead at election time.

The Democrats have a chance at a thin majority in the US House. The Senate is near impossible.

The Senate will always be heavily favored MAGA because of the geography of the US Electorate.

Should be really interesting to see if any of the sources back up the magazine.

I prefer to call it "neofeudalism"

A digital landscape of manor houses and castles with teams of serfs trying not to get deemed "worthless."

Iran will eventually come around to Trump's messaging objective for the Midterms, grant some kind of secret kickback from petroleum sales, (maybe through Kushner,) then rejoin the International Crime Syndicate headed by Vladimir Putin stronger than ever.

They'll have a secret nuke in 5 years.

The Murderous Iranian Regime, (which really did slaughter thousands of their people for protesting,) will eventually come to an agreement and rejoin the World Crime Syndicate, but only after they agree to not contest Trump's messaging. Also, some form of petroleum kickbacks.

They'll get their nuke.

This is how the "special military operation" will go:

Trump will continue to poke the Regime ever few days in order to gain support for the war, (he is, especially among the MAGA voters,) and refine the messaging for another month.

Not "trader?"

Everyone in the image is a psychopath.

"But after suffering a significant Supreme Court defeat, Mr. Trump is about to pay the money back."

LOL

Trump never used his own money for anything in his life.

And the most important thing is his currently low approval ratings do NOT translate into votes for the Democratic Party.

It just means that they "disapprove" or "approve."

Any level of approval is amazingly, legitimately terrifying.

MAGA likes things just the way they are.

To change things, the party that is open to changing things needs sustained power.

I share with voters that are interested, how to do that.
