I forecast the Jan 6 Inquisition will produce their report sometime around the beginning of that election cycle. The brush will be large in the smear attempt. It will do little but piss more people off.

very little discussions from the reich-wing ever their dogmas can not ever be questioned
lots of rumors and lies as that is their SoP of the Gop
so memes and cartoons also but very very few facts and no data as they hate facts and data

will they ever take personal responsibility for the attempt to overthrow our elected government ?
they say personal responsibility is important but never do it themselves just expect others to do so

BTW wth is THERMIDOR 2022 a wasted lobster in a cheesy mess?
an over priced fancy ice box ?
some frog revolting BS from long ago ?
some thing else ?

New variant just in time for the election, resulting in record mail-in ballots, most of which will be votes for the Democrats, brought to you by Dominion Voting.

The GOP is just a branch of the leftist Dems. Yesterday's Democrat is today's Republican.

Look.at the past month's leaders of the GOP. Today leading GOP figures advance the narrative of a Jan 6th, 2021 violent terror attack on Congress in official statements. They shill for more Afghan migrants, they shill for mRNA injections.

You aren't going to earn any credibility points claiming the left leaning GOP is far right, ray b.
What you're really advocating for is more leftism and government dependence.

The Democrats have a numbers advantage... and that is, this isn't a year where ... at least in the Senate, there are many Democrat seats up for reelection. If the shoe was on the other foot, and a Republican were president, the inherent disadvantage against Republicans would be significant. It's something like 20+ Republican seats versus 13 Democrat seats that are up for election this cycle. This is a saving grace for Democrats, because all that aside, the momentum is NOT in favor of the Democrats.

We can look at a few aspects of this:

1 - COVID: The entire country has significant COVID fatigue. Even my most radically liberal friends in Coconut Grove that have kids who are transgender, they're not wearing masks anymore. They all start off with it when they come visit to see how each other feel about it, and then they all just agree to take it off and no one talks about it any further. No one, and I mean no one really cares about masks at this point, and when they do, it's only to keep up a facade'. The imposition (lockdowns, overreaction, etc.) that continues to happen in the left-leaning states, will have a dramatic impact on the upcoming election. At the absolute minimum, it will depress the left-leaning voters from actually getting out to vote.

2 - ECONOMY: The economy continues to slowly recoil. I'm not sure why, to be honest. I keep seeing the stock market go down, and as a result of the pandemic, everyone is suffering from a form of malaise that psychologists are calling "Languishing," which they blame for the "mass resignation." While that wouldn't seem like a bad thing (I'm certainly guilty of it, literally quit my job of over a decade on November 6th), many are not getting new jobs. It's NOT because they are independently wealthy, they're going into debt. 3rd and 4th quarter debt has sky-rocketed. And then there's the issue of inflation, supply-chain problems, and rising gas prices. These are all things that have *DIRECTLY* impacted the lower income and middle class families. The people who are making the decisions seem to have myopia... they are the SF / Chicago / NYC / Washington D.C. crowd who make at least $100k salaries, walk / ride-share to work, and eat out anyway. Their views are so dramatically skewed from how the rest of their voting constituency lives (middle and lower income). The poor are significantly worse-off under Biden right now, than they were under Trump... and at the very least, this will depress voter turn-out, possibly even convert a few. It's already had a 70% swing for independents.

3 - MALAISE: Suicides and drug abuse is way up... regardless of the how and why, the fact is that it's happening. People are not getting a good feeling for what's going on in the country. You know I love you Ray B, but they say a Democrat is never really happy. Even when they have their way, they're just less angry. Right now, the majority of the country thinks were on the wrong track, whether that's because we're not liberal enough, or Biden didn't pan out how they'd hoped... there is a significant malaise on the Democrat side. You see it all day long at Democratic Underground, and even my most die-hard Democrat friends are basically over it all.

4 - CRIME: Crime and homelessness is up dramatically in the cities, particularly in left-leaning cities. Drive through places like Austin, San Francisco, etc... and every highway underpass has a tent encampment under it. This is not something you see in Miami or cities that are largely conservative. All of this is directly impacting yet again... a majority of the Democrat constituency... which will depress voter turn out for Democrats, and possibly shift a few votes.

5 - ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: Once again, we are providing services, money, and medical care to illegals, in addition to basically not prosecuting them. Yet at the same time, our own homeless and poor do not get any of these benefits. There's so much I can say about this... but I think we know the intent. Get as many people in as possible, make them citizens, promise them gifts, help elect Democrats forever.


I suspect the House gets taken by Republicans by 35-40 seats. I also suspect the Republicans take the Senate by 2 seats.

I think Biden does not run for reelection in 2024

the only way the Gop can ''win'' is voter suppression

and they are doing exactly that where ever they can

truly the trump rump showed the dark side and their long term plans to limit who votes where they vote and when they vote to the MAX

Question wonder and be wierd
are you kind?

The left has the highest number of billionaire activists. They own the media narrative that's driving politics against the right. They own the judiciary.

The GOP knows it and is capitulating as much as needed to remain relevant. They're playing Prevent Defense and any football fan knows the rule of thumb; Prevent Defense prevents you from winning. So you get Mittons Romney, Juan McAmnesty, Ted Vampire Cruz, Marco Foam Party Rubio.

Trump ran on a real right position and won easily. Twice. Even though he abandoned the right.

And right on cue the Demorat propaganda organ, CNN, proves you 100% CORRECT.


https://www.cnn.com/2022/01...january-6/index.html


"House Democrats' campaign arm is leaning into a strategy of linking Republicans to the January 6 insurrection amid the one-year anniversary of the US Capitol riot, even as some in the Democratic Party debate how much to talk about the deadly attack on the campaign trail.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee rolled out a new splash page on its website Thursday featuring a banner declaring that "Republicans incited an insurrection"

"The effort comes at the beginning of what is expected to be a challenging election year for Democrats in both the House and Senate. Many in the party believe it's imperative to continue highlighting the insurrection..."


..

The hard fact is that Demorats can't run on any legislative accomplishments because THEY DON'T HAVE ANY...

...and they can't run on any Brandon accomplishments because HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY...

...and their "BBB" boondoggle as well every other whackadoodle Marxist / socialist legislative plan they have are wildly unpopular with Americans in all polls...

...so, predictably, that leaves them only with the thin, bitter, gruel of trying stoke up their now worn out and tired "insurrection" lie machine.

"Russia Collusion" part deux"
