Stefanic needs to stay in Congress. Deep blue state Republicans should stay in place.
They're counting them so slow. I have no idea. What I saw yesterday was it looked like it was going to be 221.
Nah, it's a money grab, she's shaking down suckers to pay off her debt.
Saw Chip Roy this a.m. He expects Pubs to achieve 222 or 223 House seats.
Ha ha ha ha ha tell that to the media. For that matter, why are you always wrong then?
Probably 4 years of legal battles, gridlock, impeachments. Musk probably wouldn’t have bought X. Probably less inflation, though democrats would have had Congress in big numbers most probably. Maybe no war in Ukraine, so hundreds of thousands less needless deaths. Certainly not a landslide in 2024.
In hindsight, I’m OK with the way it played out given my general sense of optimism for the country at this point in time.
Musk is catching skyscraper sized rockets out of the air, pioneering brain implant technology, has hopes of colonizing mars, had pioneered the EV industry (if that’s something you lefties care about), and you’re whining because he chooses to be an optimist?
Guess it’d be better if Musk was a pessimistic lefty living in his moms basement like you.
This red wave finally broke Dion.
Yep, he’s the stupid one.
This shows just one clip of the real Bill Maher, the one who hates conservatives and equates them with the nazi party. He's trash, and I won't ever tune into anything he produces, no matter how hard he tries to suck up to conservatives again. And he will. Anytime it seems like he or his people need help, he will absolutely pucker up, and NO ONE should fall for it. He hates more than half of America. Some libs, but ALL conservatives, and moderate Dems with reasoning skills.
Anyone that calls people nazis, that simply want to defend the rights of citizens, have secure borders, and a stable economy, needs to be deported. Anyone that is THAT HATEFUL and derogatory to over 50% of this country needs to just pack up and move to a place that isn't the USA. If people would just stop encouraging him and his ilk, this irrational bigotry would stop.
I stopped watching any late night shows back in 2015 or 16 when they all went full r'tard about Trump and started with this "nazi" AND "deplorables" garbage. SNL was already bad, but when they refused to do anything but cater to the left, I turned that off as well. Same for any comedian, sports figure, and actor. Turned the news off back during the "mortgage" crisis for the same reason. It's been BS for a very long time and it doesn't look like that will stop.
WTF are these house seat ballot counters waiting on? They have one guy at 7-11 counting them in between selling lottery tickets and camel's? Unbelievable.
I don't remember much about her. But, I'd prefer her to a Dimocrat. I presume many closeminded here would prefer the Dimocrat based on your post here. Which would you prefer of the two? Not weasel answer please.
You clearly don't know a dam thing about my preferred kind - like many others who throw those names out there around me.
It's such a freakin joke. Has to be a tard bot, engineered to seem so perfectly stupid that no one could actually believe it could be a bot.
If someone put a "do not enter" sign on any active browser window (at the end of its driveway if it is mobile) with "Obama says" above it, its circuits would fry and we'd never hear from it again.
It was 8.9 percent inflation in 1981 and never dropped below 3.8 percent inflation two years into Reagan's term. It was at 3.9 percent 4 years into his term.
That ain't Carter's economy 4 years in fool.
The current inflation rate is 2.4 percent as a reference. Good luck going much lower than that without a recession.
We will see what Trump does with the thriving economy he inherited.

By looking at the inflation rate each year, you can gain insight into how prices changed and how events around the globe impacted the average U.S. consumer.
3.9 inflation 4 years into Reagan's term ain't Carter's fault.
We currently have 2.4 percent inflation.
Good luck going lower than that without a recession. But Trump very well might find a way. Everything he touches turns to sh**.
Hopefully we don't end up with 14 percent unemployment like last time he was in office.

Check out what he named his third kid with Grimes. You probably won’t get the reference at first, but do some googling.
Don’t know about Camilla’s, but I’ve already got my hotel booked for Trump’s!
Sam trying to teach us about the economy.....

Soooooo...what you're saying is that inflation dropped FIVE POINTS in one year under Reagan. But you argued, at the time, that Reagan was President in 1980. So you're an idiot.It was 8.9 percent inflation in 1981 and never dropped below 3.8 percent inflation two years into Reagan's term. It was at 3.9 percent 4 years into his term.

Oh, and the "current inflation rate" is being calculated by EXCLUDING things like groceries. So it's not a real number.
I only watched a few episodes that I thought had some funny moments. Kimmel was like watching sportscenter. Sportscenter would always show a UK highlight or mention UK and then not have a single bit of UK content on the show. Every time. Watching Kimmel or the Man Show was just like that. You got to the end and thought, I just wasted all that time. Gave it another shot 2x, once at a friend's place.
Never again
Exactly. They better have people on the ground there that are documenting the cheat this time
He's lying because he's paid to do so, just like all the rest of his associates and colleagues. Stop assuming they are stupid, have mommy issues, or are just asholes. Arrest the people they work for that are supporting/ ordering them to lie. They may very well have mommy issues like Kristol, but that's not their driving motivation
Yes they smeared poop on the wall. Google is your friend. Agree in some instances like the 70 year old woman that some sentences were heavy handed.

Any point you try to make dies when you reference the 14%. You’re disingenuously pretending Covid didn’t happen and the economy wasn’t thriving at levels never seen before up to that point.
I don’t even know where the arrogance comes from. How could you possibly have such arrogance on how other people feel?
This isn’t sports. You have no idea how your neighbor feels but leftists never know anyone but their echo chamber.
Mitch has never been a man of the people, unless we're talking about the people's republic. He's always about Mitch and money/power.
Yep. Someone better have backed up the data and imaging and stored it already.
Exactly. Many of the same people telling us the GOP should’ve ran someone other than Lake were the same ones hyperventilating over Trump running again this go round.
I do wonder what those people think now. I remember several republican posters telling us we should be running someone else and if we were this race “wouldn’t be close”.
I’m curious if they still think that. And who they think could’ve ran the swing state table, won the popular vote, and delivered the house and senate? Anyone?
Ah, never mind. Time to put my frustration with those folks behind me. It’s a new dawn.

Same, my guy. My dad loved Mitch. He said he was the only politician who raised a finger to help my tiny little county get a new water treatment plant (largest financial project in its history) and a bypass (this was during my dads 8 years as CJ-E).
He HATED Bevin for that. Because you’d think the super conservative governor would wanna help out a super conservative county. Yet, dad had to rely on a US senator - which isn’t exactly in his job description to do so.
Also, Mitch went to the senate floor after my dads death and spoke of my father in a senate speech. He sent me and my brother the transcript of said speech for us to frame.
And now I can’t stand him 😞
Isn't the $1,000,000 fee Kamala paid Oprah a bribe or some sort of violation?
Cannot imagine how many billions of dollars are floating around behind the scenes to keep R senators on board with the establishment and blocking MAGA.
Reprehensible pieces of shit. Every one of them.
Voters sweep with the MAGA agenda, only to have it stopped on the goal line by wolves wearing Rs.
**** their secret vote.
