He's just practicing for 2020 to see if his base will swallow it... of course they will.
He's actually not the problem here. Right wing media is spreading the fud far and wide.

Yeah, I don't think that has sunk in to him yet, FL will probably be purple or blue the next election. That's a bigly amount of new voters going on the roles, and maybe he has realized and he wants repub control to find a new way to "balance" it out before 2020.I'm pretty sure that Florida's constitution amendment restoring voting rights to ex-offenders will help Dems, a lot.
That would require a Republican controlled Senate to do something.
The only reason McConnell and Ryan haven't ratfucked Trump out of office is that they're smart enough to see that Trump's base is the most reliable base of GOP voters they have left. If Trump starts to lose evangelicals (unlikely as long as Pence is by his side), older/affluent whites (starting to lose suburbans in midterms), non-college whites (nope) and flyover state whites (nope) then they wouldn't for one second hesitate to "shiv" his presidency in the House and Senate.We'll see. It depends on the Special Counsel investigation. If the evidence against Trump is overwhelming (I suspect it will be) then failure to act would badly damage GOP chances in 2020. McConnell will do his damnedest to hold the Senate, bet on that.
Oklahoma and Kansas are sending a democratic Rep to Congress. Obviously he doesn't have the extreme pull people think he does.The only reason McConnell and Ryan haven't ratfucked Trump out of office is that they're smart enough to see that Trump's base is the most reliable base of GOP voters they have left.

Trump was all smiles after the GOP got doused by the Blue Wave because he knows he still wins with his base--therefore he'll still have GOP machine support.

Kendra Horn in Oklahoma ran on mostly healthcare, BTW. I think Dems can finally run on that after people realized how full of shit the GOP has been about healthcare.

Donald Trump Calls For End To Florida Recounts
@realDonaldTrump
The Florida Election should be called in favor of Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis in that large numbers of new ballots showed up out of nowhere, and many ballots are missing or forged. An honest vote count is no longer possible-ballots massively infected. Must go with Election Night!
We should find a list of all the BS they're spouting.
Even more appalling when you consider she used her Congressional healthcare to pay for what is probably the most expensive baby ever born.I was disappointed to see Beutler win in SW Washington after voting dozens of times against pre-existing condition protections, and then flat out lying about how she supported them.
Found your voter fraud!
Gov. Rick Scott on Monday dropped his motion to impound voting machines in Broward County, after a judge said he could find no evidence for the improper activities that would justify such a step.

Not really fraud, it’s people being duped into thinking they voted when they didn’t.
You can’t vote by email or fax.
Some voters in a North Florida county hit hard by Hurricane Michael submitted their ballots by fax and email -- a practice that runs afoul of guidance issued by Florida election officials in October.
Bay County Supervisor of Elections Mark Andersen told CNN that he and his staff had worked with 158 voters displaced by Michael to allow them to cast ballots by email and fax, despite the Florida Department of State saying that voting by fax or email "is not an option."
You should research this matter a little more. The number was small but it was a direct violation of voting law in Florida.
