correct.
wayne, are you suggesting that video is fake?
first you said i took it out of context. so i ask you for the proper context, and you respond by questioning the source.
Have you even watched the video? probably not, yet you know i took it out of context.
not even CLOSE to a red wave. |

i dunno. if the gop couldn’t triumph with democrats delivering these results, when can we?
it was a terrible night for trump candidates.
in GA, the gop and the stupid libertarians need to make friends. this will be two senate elections in a row the libertarians took away from the gop. i can’t see walker competing in a runoff without Kemp on the ballot to bolster him.
and there’s literally no reason to look at polls anymore. |

Average house seat pick up in the mid term is a big number, add high inflation, high gas and food prices, low approval ratings and we should have seen the big red wave Fox and those drinking their coolaid (go Scott), when does the Republican Party finally divorce itself from Trump and the crazy? Oh yeah, other than Florida, the red Latino wave didn’t happen either.

i’m just asking, not mocking, what’s the data on how hispanics voted?
terrible night for trump-backed weak candidates. Trump serves an unbelievable purpose in 2016, now he has to go. |

“The only seats where the Republicans are making gains right now is when the seats were drawn to give them gains.”
Thank you @SteveKornacki for making it plain.

Use the Google
As far as Latinos, identity trumps policy every single time. Latinos want so badly to identify as white and conservative. Lots of misogyny in Latino culture. So it’s not a surprise that they’re flocking to the GOP.

It’s hard to underscore enough how damaging this election is to the GOP.
There’s no avoiding how obviously big a problem Trump is and they’re stuck with him.
There’s no one to lead them out of it.

i did use google, and didn’t see anything. the question was for GS, why not let him answer. i’m just curious what he saw.
Trump isn’t what’s bringing latinos to the right, and i never even hinted that he was. It’s the lefts insane lurch into gross weirdness on social issues that’s maybe pushing hispanics to the right . mexicans are hugely catholic. you can’t be a good catholic and vote for democrats right now, you just can’t. hispanics don’t like men sharing bathrooms with women, they don’t like men physically competing with women, they don’t like being told that men can get pregnant. If hispanics are moving a little to the right, that’s why. it has absolutely nothing to do with trump. |

the democrat who got elected governor of PA ran a terrific campaign, but he portrayed himself as an actual moderate, so that may be as far as he can go. He was very smart. I wouldn’t mind seeing him go further, but then progressives won’t like him. |

And on newsmax the hoodie winning
The response is as expected
One was I hope he strokes out in office
And If this is another greatest example of a rigged election, I don’t know what it is. And mentally incapacitated candidate, whose wife is a communist and an illegal immigrant is voted in the office. This screams of some thing and it sure isn’t proper voting either by the Pennsylvania citizens who completely lost their minds or there’s voter fraud it’s one or the other or both

The Faux worm has eaten your brain.
You’re triggered by the word trump, I didn’t mention him.
“ As far as Latinos, identity trumps policy every single time.”
Now you’re reading Latinos minds and painting them as a monolithic group, that’s the mistake all politicians make.

i was kidding wayne, obviously.
i posted the video of the democrat saying kids would be killed. the while quote is there. but you can’t admit it. you just questioned the source instead of addressing what’s in the video. this really is a waste. |

Maybe the GOP will realize that Trump getting indicted and going to jail may not be a bad thing.
There are strategic reasons to want this. If he can’t win, he’s a liability to the party, but his trial & conviction (??) would fire up a ton of conservatives to give Dems the boot. It seems like a winning proposition if they can walk the knife edge of looking outraged about it.

no worries!
the whole country is as divided as we are here.
I really really think the GOP will continue to underperform unless they put trump in the rear view mirror. |
