Okay admittedly "The democrats win the mid-terms because the fash are too stupid to keep the piggy bank out of the hands of a well known thief" is not something I had on my bingo card.
Looks like currently Dems are expected to maintain control of the senate and maybe pick up a senate seat or two. Might be an incredible fumble by Republicans given economic conditions and the fact that it's a midterm.
Yeah. I think it's Dems will still lose the house, because the president's party holding steady during midterms is practically unheard of. But let's hope they do well enough that maybe the Republicans walk back some of their culture war BS.
Roe is just a basis for undercutting the incorporation of the bill of rights and granting late 19th century powers back to the confederate and copperhead states. Losing women will mean nothing if that upcoming Supreme Court case ends with us returning to state legislatures rigging stuff.
They know how to play the long game. If they’re actually dedicated to their goals slightly losing one midterm election that you could’ve won is absolutely worth it for the overturn of abortion rights
Quite a few states that have or are expected to have abortion bans via the legislature also have ways of passing amendments via ballot initiative (i.e. direct voting by the people) that would supersede the legislature. You're gonna start seeing the GOP pivot hard over to "direct democracy is bad because reasons" as I bet if you put abortion on the ballot, maybe Mississippi and Alabama ban it but that's gonna be about it.
After the vote in Kansas happened I feasted on the :cope: from evangelicals who are convinced the overwhelming majority of Americans want abortion banned.

Fascists crumbling due to stupid people is a pretty common theme in history.
Turns out being a raging blind lunatic with a thirst for blood is not a stable leadership method
Not is a system that promotes said people to fight for leadership in order to “Reed out the weak”

Gas prices are falling again, as they always do, so that canard is going away as well

I think they will lose the house, but maybe not as much as 2010

It's called the silent majority because it doesn't exist so it can't speak
The way you worded this made me crack up laughing
Chapo's funniest possible outcome theory may be true yet again
They probably don’t care because they’ve got more billionaire backers than the other team.
