The question is, can the country survive another 2 years of this crap ?? Even AOC and Ohmar got re elected. Now watch fuel prices go through the roof and that will be the last nail in the coffin to really tank the economy.
Let's go Brandon

Who would you have? There is one person I would actually prefer to run instead of Trump but I imagine you wouldn't like him either.
DeSantis, with him FL is in the bag and that's a big deal.

yotetrapper my pick has been Desantis for quite awhile. I liked Trump and his policies but he's not electable and he's far to thin skinned when it comes to the media. If he'd have stayed a little quieter he'd have been better off. I don't trust the media either but he took it to the extreme and turned off a lot of people and if you don't think that hurt him you're blind and in denial.

The thing is I LIKED how he gave the media fits. But I also understand that not everyone is as extreme as me about some things, and that he did turn a lot of people off with it. And yes, DeSantis is the ONLY candidate besides Trump that I would be happy to vote for.

Funny you mentioned “thin skin” and then say people didn’t like him because he was abrasive. LMAO

Since you're local to Georgia name a better candidate. With solid conservative credentials and name recognition that is trustworthy and not compromised to the swamp.
Get back to me when you find one. warrior, don't take this personal, only a joke How you gonna call me a yankee when you are living in a blue state?? 
Gotta live up to the nickname...

All DeSantis has to do to beat him in a primary is let Trump speak. He’ll beat himself. I like Trumps policies too, but he’s a total lightning rod and there aren’t enough Trumpsters to get him into the Whitehouse.

@badger23 You speak about an issue that highlights a bigger national problem. Instead of focusing on result driven performance, they only want people who are just like them which is just as bad as party line voting everything. Look at Beto sure he got swept by Abbott, but how can a guy who says he is going to take AR15s away get that many votes with ZERO results. Beto in all his time in the house, only has 1 bill that he sponsored that passed. Just 1.
The only downfall of this election was PA because of the horrible candidates, but Oz should have never even been a legitimate candidate. Had it been the native PA candidate that lost to OZ by less than 1000 votes, likely would have swept Jim from Taxi.
Results are Trump Candidates are 9 wins, 8 losses

Results are Trump Candidates are 9 wins, 8 losses Better candidate?? Like Fetterman? Sorry, better candidate or not, people just don't care who went in. If they cared, they would go vote instead of hide behind excuses like needing a better candidate, not that one wouldn't help, but its nonsense to have people vote in a brain damaged one.....his people voted. Another big reason is, there are just more Democrats than Republicans, and they don't make the excuses....they vote.
There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.

Hobbie have you heard any Trumpsters say they wouldn't support Desantis if he won the primary?

Another big reason is, there are just more Democrats than Republicans, and they don't make the excuses....they vote. Like Dave McCormick? He was a far better candidate than Oz, and obviously Fetterman. Sure I'm not saying I disagree, but that's where I place blame upon whoever is in charge of GOP strategy in PA. Getting out and talking with neighbors and not even asking them to vote a certain way, but just to vote for crying out loud goes a long way.

Traditionally the party in power loses 20-40 house seats and senate seats as well. This year with Biden's very low approval ratings most felt there would be a Red Wave and it turned into a small splash. With all the head winds against the Dems they fared quite well and the main reason is high voter turnout and one of the largest young voter turn outs on record. Young person typically have low turn out and this election they responded to politicians trying to take away their freedoms, choices and voting rights. Now that they have become politically active they will most likely stay active and will want to maintain freedoms that their parents and grand parents were able to enjoy. Their involvement may also start the long term shift to more moderate, centrist and or independent voters which will over time change the political landscape. Governing the middle out makes sense to many and especially the younger voters. Also women voting for their personal rights to choose made a big impact in many races.
Bryce You forgot that MANY young voters were bought off with the student loan forgiveness garbage.

This many blue in congress after the last two years is very unprecedented...I do not think it has happened before.in a midterm. Beyond corrupt. In a week or so we will be told the libs have both houses of congress.
