I recently learned what true bill is

Great video on it and how incompetent this admin is

That's why we shouldn't try to shirk jury duty. Yes, it can be an inconvenience, but it is an important civic obligation and a way in which we can give back to society. It's also an important check on overzealous and incompetent prosecutors.
 
You are conflating internal D sentiments about the party’s opposition strategy with a generic ballot that’s showing D+5. Multiple things can be true at the same time. Trump/Rs are bleeding out independent support.
I think you will find 2026 to be even more frustrating than 2024.

I've said all along, you don't need to worry about the GOP messing with midterms. They have a good chance to just straight up win.

I find the idea that Trump has ended thermostatic politics to be...underbaked at best.

Anyway the midterm is going to be a referendum on his policies and how voters feel about the country (particularly the economy) and well they don't seem to be feeling great already.

i guess the SoL runs out on tuesday for the crime they intend to charge him with?

Some more details:


It is unlikely to get past the grand jury but that won't stop dim wit trump from trying. He really should be impeached at this point as being utterly incompetent. Heck is crack staff is so good they can't even operate a teleprompter.
 
There is a floor of support that will be basically impossible for him to decline below. I think that floor is probably in the low 30s. The question for Rs is if his low support and high voter unhappiness results in vote erosion in a midterm where the outparty is already favored to pick up seats. Does it turn a loss from not great (losing some house seats and the majority) into cataclysmic (losing senate seats and that majority too).
By floor of support in low 30s do you mean among Republicans, among likely voters, or among the general population?

No, not the Onion.


More incredible decision making from the shitgibbon.

By golly we need to drill baby drill and if you aren't using oil to drive you better be (i'm sure electric and hybrid cars are next on the chopping block).
 
He gets mad about the weirdest things. Although I guess these ones slightly embarrassed him in public and that's one thing he hates!

Can we just take a minute and think of the poor sods that have to live translate his gibberish into six different languages and try to make it make sense while preserving what was meant. That's an impossible job if ever I've heard of one!

His own staffer accidentally stopped the escalator... It was his staff running the teleprompter that he says over and over again he doesn't need... No introspection of any kind with these people. And the cult will, and already is, eating it right up.

Car dealers are some of the most reliable Republican donors. Dealers fund Republicans => Republicans maintain franchise laws protecting dealership markets from competition => With little competition, dealers maintain high profit margins => Dealers use some of the profits to fund Republicans.

I don’t know if you are familiar with this since you aren’t American but do you remember the keele and peel skit where Obama hand an anger translator? I feel like we need the reverse where someone translates Trump’s incoherent rants into proper presidential speak..
