They are going to pass a few hundred bills that Trump will veto, so they can say they got things done. They may average a bill a day
They will have dozens of bills pushed through committee and have them on the floor in a few weeks. They have been working on bills for 2 years that weren’t sent to committee or bills that made it through committee that Johnson wouldn’t put on the floor.
Because of all the more moderate Democrats elected AOC and the far left won’t jave as much influence on what gets passed.

Miller might be playing the long game. The right can’t get anything done if they don’t control Congress, Senate, or the Presidency. Giving amnesty might give Republicans back enough of the Latino vote to get Texas back and keep Florida. It will probably help in places like Arizona and Nevada too.
re: California passes new law where only have to put down 3% for new home instead of 20 %

In 5 years they can refinance into 1 loan. They don’t have to pay anything down when they refinance. Their home will be worth more than what they owe, so when they refinance for a new 30 year mortgage it will bring down their monthly payment.
Where I live it cost a lot more to rent a nice home or apartment than a mortgage payment for a starter home. It’s probably the same in California. It seems like a good thing to do for new home owners. Just have to make it the 1st 5 years.

re: Mississippi Senate Race

Obama did ads to get out the vote in Mississippi. Bill Clinton attended and spoke at rallies. Democrats knew they had shot. Sending Washington elites would have been a mistake
Obama and Clinton got at least an extra 30,000 people out to vote and probably a lot more. There are still southern white people that like Clinton.
The protein ad got voters out. One of the best political ads ever
Colom ran a great campaign

That is a good idea as long as you don’t recruit or support terrible candidates. If you keep putting bad inept people in office nothing will get done

This isnt a Trump Issue. This is a national issue that our voters do not understand.
I think a lot more voters understand than you think. Trump had 2 years of the majority in Congress his 1st term and 2 years in his 2nd term. They don’t see him or his party making a big difference, making their lives better, bringing down the debt, or a lot of other things that were promised in 2016 and 2024.
Enough of the center and right of the Democrat party were elected the far left like squad don’t have as much influence on the speaker. Jeffries should be able to get things done without the far left. The amount of Democrats being elected to the house is bad for the far left in Congress. AOC has less influence in Congress than she did before the election.
It’s the perfect time to start a new party. There are a lot of moderate voters. Even if the candidates aren’t moderate the voters think they are. Democrats on the right, independents, and Rino’s need to make a 3rd party.
In the Senate Montana, Alaska, and Nebraska should have went purple. Democrats screwed up running in Montana. The Independent candidate would have won. Instead the Democrat and independent split the vote..The Independent got 37.5% of the vote and the Democrat got 12.05% of the vote.
This would be really bad for the Democrat party

One of the problems is younger Gen X and Millennials didn’t raise their own kids. Their grandparents or other family members did. That is all races.
Most of the younger Millennials and Gen Z don’t want to be like their parents. They want to have relationships with their kid/kids.
I wish I would have started earlier and could have more than 2. I didn’t think I could afford to have kids at the time. I now realize it doesn’t matter how much money you have you are still going to spend about the same percentage of your income on each child.

In Kansas Sen Roger Marshall is as bad a candidate as Paxton. Democrats are running a former registered Republican pastor from a mega church. His church has over 20,000 members. Marshall has pissed off a lot of Republican statewide elected officials. (I’m not sure why)
Marshall didn’t really start campaigning until September. He has terrible commercials on TV. Hamilton has had ads on streaming services since June. Hamilton ads are good and effective.
Marshall
1. He is a retired doctor that has lives in Florida
2. His practice sued patients and had some arrested for not paying bills. Some of bills were for less than $100, a few didn’t know they had a bill, a few had new phones, and a few had moved and were not getting notices. One woman that was arrested was 8 months pregnant and with her 2 year old
3. Kansas farmers depend on diesel and gas for farming. He said something controversial about it that really upset farmers, I don’t know what it was.
4. Tariffs have hurt a lot of farmers
5. Campaign ads that were easily proven false
6. The Epstein files are a big deal in Kansas.
7. Because of Wichita, Lawrence, and the KC metro. Kansas is a moderate Republican state not ruby red. They have a governor that is a Democrat.
8. Former statewide Republican elected officials disagree with Marshall on a lot of his voting record and they probably want to run as a moderate Republican in the future

Paxton 51% of the vote
I don’t think either will get 50% of the vote. In 2018 Ted Cruz only got 50.33% and in 2020 with Trump on the ballot John Cornyn got 53.5%. Cruz and Cornyn would both probably struggle to get 51% of the vote without Trump on the ticket.
Talarico will get almost all of the Beto voting block that voted in a midterm and Paxton will probably lose some of the Cornyn and Cruz voters.
In January 2022 gas was $3.30 a gallon. After Russia invaded the Ukraine in February 2022 there was an overreaction by the market and gas peaked in June at $5.01 and diesel had a high of $5.82. By December the national average was back down to $3.21.
Gas prices went down in 2022 in 6 months because of an overreaction. This could be different because I don’t think people or the market knew how valuable or vulnerable the Straight of Hormuz is.
It may take a while to fix this even after we leave Iran.

I don't understand why Democrats let the polls get their hopes up every single time. Do you never learn anything?
It mostly worked for them in 2018 and 2020
Hopes are back because Trump is in office
Even with terrible candidates Texas and Kansas Republicans will come home and vote for candidates they don’t like. Both will squeak by with narrow wins. In Kansas the Hamilton(D) campaign has did a great job in advertising and raised a lot money. His campaign made it close to a 50-50 race before he started getting outside money..
Maine, NC, Alaska, and Ohio will probably flip to the Democrats
Best hope for the GOP to keep the Senate is to flip Michigan. Michigan is probably 50-50
GOP will probably lose 2 or 3 seats in 2028, so they need to keep as many seats as possible

Was at a Halloween thing for my daughter tonight and nurse was trying to explain free healthcare plan to everyone. I don’t know if she got through to anyone.
1st she talked about how all the people on Medicade and Medicare and other type of government assistance is being paid for by our taxes and business dollars.
1. Half the cost of your medical insurance wouldn’t come out of your check each pay period.
2. Half the cost of your medical insurance wouldn’t be paid by your employer. This would save small businesses a lot of money
3. Hospitals have to write-off billions of dollars each year. This would save them money and bring down losses
4. Not going through insurance companies would save billions of dollars
She said that is why free healthcare is better and cheaper than what we are doing now

Internal polling must show a direction on how this Tuesday is going to go. If it’s good news he’s not needed on the campaign trail. If it’s going to be negative he doesn’t want to be campaigning with a loser.

Republicans would win with a better candidate, easily.
2018 Senate election
Cruz 4,260,000 50.89%
Beto 4,045,000 48.33%
2024 Cruz won reelection with Trump on the ticket. Trump got 500,000 more votes than Cruz. When Trump is on the ticket it brings out Republican voters like very few candidates have ever done. When he’s not on the ticket it will probably be close to how 2018 Senate election was and how this years election will be.

What could POTUS Trump offer the State of Alaska that the citizens would fall over backwards for but she would hate?

They got him saying stupid shite right before the midterms
It doesn’t matter if it was his arse or schlong. It was stupid to talk about. I’m sure the evangelical’s loved it
Maybe.
Maybe not. If the Democrats keep districts close, but still lose by small margins it will be good for the Democrats
Trump is out in 2 years, so Republicans that win by a small percentage are not always going to vote down party lines. Trump is not going to be on the ticket in 2028, so some of his supporters that don’t always vote will stay at home. Congressman that won by a small percentage will want to look like moderates if they want to be reelected
