I thought CA Dims were going to flip several Pub House seats, but Pubs leading in all their races to this point. Closest to flipping are a couple of Dim seats to Pub. So good.

What about Vance-Vivek, Tommy?
He would, especially now that he has handled the Florida disasters (covid/hurricanes) w/ excellence. This year wasn't his time, but he is a natural leader. Vance is solid and fits the VP role nicely, as he has proven, but he isn't ready for the top spot. 4 years may prove different, but he would not have the skills on multiple fronts as DeSantis does. It is DeSantis/Newsom at this stage per many insiders, of course, that is a long way away.
I listened to the speech live. He sounded better than he has for a long time. I think he is in fact relieved that its over. And based on Jill's wearing a red pants suit on election day....he is thrilled that the Pelosi, Clooney, Shoooomer anointed one lost. He can say that he would have won, then go out into the sunset with your pockets full of the cash that they used to bribe him to move out of the way.
I hope he has a chance in some capacity to be a major player going forward even if not as President. Let's count ourselves lucky that we finally have a formidable list of young options going forward. Something we lacked before.
I love her fake gestures and voice...but really love how she talks about the price for taxpayers to deport people. They only ever mention price when it's a Republican plan. Which he had mentioned the cost of keeping them rent free with benefits.
Former ICE director and Trump ally Tom Homan: What price do you put on our national security?
60 Minutes: Is there a way to carry out mass deportations without separating families?
Homan: Of course there is. Families can be deported together.

This must be CGI. Everyone knows that cops only beat the hell out of black guys. Deep Fake.
To me, the problem is US paying too much of it.
I thought Selzer was the "gold Standard" of pollsters. Didn't ukcatz tell us that?
Concerning Vance vs. DeSantis, I forgot that at this point, Trump likely is to endorse Vance. It would be all over then. But you can have no idea where his mind will be in 3 years. Conceivable Vance could get the "You're fired." move by then.

I feel this is a mistake. I wouldn’t trust anything with Dems.
I hope one of the agenda items is to take on the likes of Monsanto and their stranglehold on big farmers and their tactics to strongarm smaller farmers.
Vivek would have to move, they both live in Ohio. But they're bagillionaires so i think that could be fixed.
Once Desantis time is up in Florida, I hope Trump puts him in charge of cleaning up FEMA.
You read my mind, since FEMA is under the Department of Homeland Security make Desantis the Secretary of Homeland Security. Very doubtful that would happen but he would do great there.
Ok… been busy since election night. What’s the deal with the House races that are still undecided? Are they all incapable of counting the votes by now? Hell Florida had ALL of its millions of votes counted by 8:00 PM on Election Day.
I think property tax mainly on local voting/issues that will affect property tax. A majority that vote for an issue that will make property taxes go up....but they are mostly renters makes no sense to me. They will eventually be affected by it when the rental owners raise rents to cover their added tax burden...but most renters will never make the connection.
Big assumption…obviously a lot can happen. Could be a cycle where the climate wants nothing to do with the Trump administration, could be the opposite.
But yes, will have to either wait four or eight years for anyone.
The DeSantis campaign and Super PAC (NBD) were notoriously chaotic. I’ll share some stories in person at a tailgate.
He/she/it damn well better be on the chopping block… not day one… hour one.
The law is about appointing a SENATOR replacement. Massie is a REPRESENTATIVE. They are replaced by special elections.
I don’t like going after politicians, either. But, all of the recent, treasonous bs needs to be dealt with, accordingly. You can’t give them a slap on the wrist, or, do nothing at all. A message needs to be sent that this bs won’t be tolerated in this country. And, it has to be strong enough to make any future perpetrators think twice about the consequences. Do nothing or go easy on them & the same thing will happen again, eventually.
Well, yeah. But 223 would be everything ending up going well for the GOP. Could stay the same or be less. Wish these straggling states could count their damn votes more quickly.
Met the Mrs when Clinton was President. While not 'very liberal' she was left of center.
Now....MAGA all for Trump and all his policies.
There is hope.
So I wonder who the Dems will start propping up for 2028. Vance will almost certainly be the Rep candidate unless something out of blue happens over the next 4 years.
It’s interesting…Vivek definitely brings a flair/say whatever attitude that a lot of Trump’s base relates to…but I don’t think he brings over moderates.
For all of Trump’s gumption…he doesn’t come across as snotty as Vivek (I like Vivek…but that has been said)
Also think they REALLY want/need a female in 2028 on the ticket.
He should do a zoom meeting from Mar-A-Lago.
I sure hope the President removes that weaponization everywhere he and his staff can! MUCH better for the country... ROOT OUT the Communists and there are a bunch of them.
And I think NJ could very well be in play in four years. Don’t see NY or CT that soon. Maybe NH flips back with the right candidate…Ayotte, the new Gov has a unique appeal.
You thought Trump had a target on his back.... BPharma doesn't fk around. I expect attempts on his life before the inauguration and going past that if he survives
