I think all hell will break loose between Republicans tomorrow after Trump loses soundly

We keep thinking the insane Trump idiots are going to freak out on the left and the media and I am sure they will but I think they will be shouted down by the more "moderate" forces of the Republican Party. They have been holding their tongues and welling up with rage over the idiot who took over THEIR party and once he loses and looks like a fucking loser idiot they are going to come out in force, loud as shit! There may be some pockets of violence but that will only make things worse. The Romney, Bush, McCain wing of the Party is going to want to take control back and they will be telling the deplorable that they are nothing but fuck ups and should now shut the hell up! They are so dumb it could start more of a civil war between Republicans. Who knows, maybe a complete split? It should be entertaining to watch.

I don't see Trump walking away that easily after getting pounded. It could get ugly.

Anticipate a Hellscape for the next 3 months.

And I hope I'm very wrong.

He said he wants to block any Supreme Court justice appointed by a Democrat forever. That's just as crazy as Trump.

7. That is going to be hard to do! Taking back the House

Among other surprises, I think we are going to take back the House, and here is why.

Battle for the House of Representatives
Current House (232 R,...... 202 D, 1 I): Democrats Need to Pick Up 15 Seats For Control

HOUSE: 222 D, 213 R (D +19) On the Republican side, RCP's Final House ratings list thirteen seats in the Leans Democrat category, fourteen in the Toss Ups column and twenty seats rated Leans Republican. On the Democratic side, 2 seats are rated as Toss Ups with 4 Leaning Democrat. <<<Polls of candidates says otherwise!!

Splitting Toss Ups 50/50, RCP projects Democrats picking up 19 seats in the House of Representatives with an overall range of 14 - 24 seats.

Leans Dem (13) These are sure things.

AZ-8: Open (Kolbe)
CO-7: Open (Beauprez)
OH-18: Open (Ney)
PA-7: Weldon
IN-8: Hostettler
IA-1: Open (Nussle)
NY-24: Open (Boehlert)
NY-20: Sweeney
PA-10: Sherwood
TX-22: Open (DeLay)
NC-11: Taylor
OH-15: Pryce
FL-16: Open (Foley)

Toss Ups (14) The Polls show us taking all but 1.

NH-2: Bass D
IN-2: Chocola D
FL-13: Open (Harris) D
NM-1: Wilson D
OH-1: Chabot D
CT-4: Shays D
IN-9: Sodrel R
IL-6: Open (Hyde) D
PA-6: Gerlach D
AZ-5: Hayworth D
CT-5: Johnson D
CA-11: Pombo D
OH-2: Schmidt D
KY-3: Northup D






Leans GOP (20)

Remain calm, give them sympathy, ask them if they are really mad, let them know it doesn't mean they are personally Losers.


I can't believe the jerk did so well. LMAO! Didn't realize there was so many deplorables in America.
