    The bloodbath of flipped House seats will set a record.

      It's bipartisanship. The GOP is trying hard to win by any means possible. And the dems are imploding to help them.

      Seriously though - I'd love to hear a DC dem pol explain how killing the child tax credit and not cancelling students loans in a goddamned election year is good actually.

        I haven’t listened to the PodJons in a couple of years, but I’d love to hear their neoliberal Sorkin-verse take.

          If the dems were a political thriller movie - it would do about $500 of box office. Their level of idiocy doesn't even make sense in fifth-rate storytelling.

          I'm no lawyer but I assume the only actual viable voting rights reform would have to happen long before the elections or it'll be challenged in court and the dems will lose big on the law and lose everywhere. It would be pretty funny if they passed legislation around May anyway, the GOP gleefully stole elections everywhere and got away with a lot of it. Then some of the malfeasance went to the courts.

          The MSNBC legal experts would first say "The courts should rule that..." And then lower expectations "The courts could .." And then "It's possible the courts might .." And then "It's possible that some courts might .." And then after the rulings come out which are nearly all wins for the GOP - the experts say "Some of these rulings are surprising and - quite frankly - shocking..."

          Sure, surprising and shocking. Who could have predicted that?
