Arizona Senate race called for Dem. Now 51-47, Mississippi and Florida left to go. Another defeat for Mango.

Dems have now gained 31 seats in the House with 10 still to be called.

How in dear god could a person that no bank would trust with a car loan, get that many votes.

The head of the democratic party here was a family member for over 25 years. I just xant get my head around it 

Like Mango? No US Bank would touch him so he went abroad to Russia to get money....

There is just no way to get away from the never ending hatred for President Trump. When I go out for a meal it is to eat, if I want to talk politics I will do it with the others eating at my table. I don't need the little snide unwelcome remarks that come from servers that automatically assume I am anti Trump just because I happen to be sitting at one of their tables. 

 

Today for example an amber alert went out across the mobile phone networks and my server automatically went into anti Trump mode with his comment " that's not another one of those stupid messages from Trump is it" The amber alerts have been frequent over the past few days in NC since the young kid went missing in Lumberton but this numbskull figured he could turn it in an excuse to make a comment about the President. You would think in an industry that has low pay and the servers rely on the tips that they would just serve the food and be cordial and not risk anything that would offend, well sorry I am offended and your tip will be reduced accordingly.

 

   

Maybe if our President actually grew up, stopped acting like a man child and a jackass more people would like him. His behavior is red meat to his base but he's alienating the majority of the country.

I'd have left a penny and a note on the receipt saying that I support Trump, not idiots that cannot see the good he's doing for America. 

Doing good :lol: Had the best Economy in YEARS and still lost the House! He lost Independents and Surburban voters. His approval rating is STILL underwater.

Democrats are experts at gerrymandering. The Republicans could learn a lot from them.

Lol one state! Republicans have been mastering it for years in Pennsylvania, North Carolina etc etc.

  Yes but 20 lefties were guilty of criminal mischief at Tucker Carson's house, which apparently proves there is no blue wave, and according to the logic of some Republican talking heads, millions of Democrats are now guilty by some sort of association. 

Poor Tucker, he has it so difficult. Meanwhile the largest ever assassination attempt in US History took place with pipe bombs against many top Dems.

Rather than parlay a word you heard, explain how gerrymandering affected the Senate races, did those big bad Republicans redraw state lines unbeknownst to everyone? 

 

Replace some of your vitriol with common sense it will improve people's perception....

 

Maybe you are an Aerosmith fan, Dream On ... You need to up your game of twist...

Ermm I was talking about the House...then my reply talked about the Senate.

The democrats put everything they had into this election and could only take the House by a handful of seats and LOST Senate seats. All this during a mid term under a new president where historically the party of the president should lose both houses. Pretty pathetic on the part of the left if you ask me. By the way the republicans lost the least amount of seats in a mid term with a new president like this in over 100 years. That's a decent accomplishment on their part.

Only because of Gerrymandering, they would've lost a lot more. In the Senate it is looking like the GOP will gain at least 1 at most 3. Not really significant, awful in fact when you consider the Senate map heavily favoured the GOP going into the election.

Montana, Mississippi, Arizona, Texas, Tennessee, Missouri, Red States that all went heavily for Trump in 2016.

Dems made their biggest gain in House, Governor seats etc etc for 40 years. It was a blue wave. Outstanding considering the state of the Economy. Republicans had a disasterous night, they should've gained many seats with the state of the Economy. Thanks Mango!

The solution is obvious. Increase the number of Supreme Court Justices. We could end up with a Supreme Court that is not a fair reflection/representation of the entire country. Laws will be passed in the future by majorities in Congress and very favorable with the public that'll be knocked down because of the very conservative beliefs with some on the court.

I agree it's totally unfair. 

 

So the only fair solution is to allow only 600,000 Californians to vote. 

So 39,400,000 people are ignored? Won't have the right to vote? Bananas.

and allow the left and right coasts to decide what is best for most of the states?  I don't think so.........the founding fathers were much smarter than some posters around here...

They wouldn't, they be voting what is best for their States because voila there are more people there!

One senator in California represents 20 million people.

One Senator in Texas represents 14 million people.

One Senator in Wyoming represents 250,000

One Senator in Vermont represents 300,000.

It is absolutely ludicrous that the Senators from Vermont/Wyoming have just as much power as the Senator from Texas/California. It's a false Democracy.

That's why the electoral college is so important.  Glad you finally see it

That needs to go to, it's archaic. One person, one vote. Candidate with the most votes across the whole country wins. Again a vote in North Dakota should not have more power than a vote in New York.

Nice to see some face around that appeared to have fallen off the map come back into the light. 

 

Sorry if the intracies of the government appear to upset you. Maxine alone should stifle your unbridled joy, but I doubt it

It's outdated, plain and simple, land doesn't vote, people do. People in more rural States shouldn't have more power in their vote than people who live in populated areas like the city and Suburbs.

What happened to the Caravan? Fox News are reporting about it like it never happened.

It might not be enough. They have an increased Senate majority, and thanks to only having two senators per state, big or small, they will have a huge advantage in 2020 for keeping the Senate.

Say hello to permanent Republican party minority rule. 😓

I'm looking at the short term right now. Mueller is writing his final report and depending what comes out in it we could be seeing Mango being dragged out of the White House in a straight jacket.

About the Senate, it's heavily undemocratic. It needs to be revamped because it's wrong to have 30% of the country controlling/deciding what happens to other 70%.

Heavy defeat for Republicans, worst since Nixon. They've now lost over 300 statewide elections in just two years. Thanks Mango!

He is also losing the plot. He attacked members of his own party for not backing him and he's screaming at the press. 

O'Rourke did very well. To get within three points of the Republican candidate is impressive.

Dems confirm they're going to subpoena Mango's Tax Returns Lets see what he's been hiding for the past three years.

When did he ever say that at all? Now your just blowing smoke. 

Shows how much Trump supporters live in an alternative reality.....he has said on many occasions he would pay the legal fees of anyone who committed violence against his political opponents.

Question is will Donnie pay for this guy's legal fees? He said he would.

Just now, Randyandyuni said:

Lol now you are assuming my reactions too, good to see you.havent changed, missed the laughs

Nice deflection, keep on defending this President and his despicable behavior, history has shown that people like Trump and his followers are always on the wrong side.

You forgot Bobby deniro butt hurt actor

Yes because that is how we should respond after several people have had bombs sent to them. Even after Trump called for unity today, his supporters were still screaming Fake News and CNN sucks.

You forgot to include "in my opinion" or provide a reference for your statistical analysis or his.motivation, please stick to some attempt at facts

Wow, I'm sure you be singing a different tune if Barack Obama said only 5% of the crass stuff Trump has said at his rallies. It is so obvious why all of this is going on right now, Trump's behavior has been despicable. If he doesn't want the mainstream media criticizing him then he needs to grow up and start acting like an adult. All the media is doing is calling him out on his behavior, a grown man acting like a man-child. Of course that doesn't even include the LIES, lie after lie after lie, what is he on now? 5000+?

So far we've had bombs sent to:

Barack/Michelle Obama (Former President/First Lady)

Bill/Hillary Clinton (Former President/First Lady/Secretary of State)

Joe Biden (Former Vice President)

George Soros (Millionaire Democratic Donor)

Maxine Waters (Congress woman)

Corey Booker (Senator)

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (Former head of DNC)

Eric Holder (Former Attorney General)

CNN (Media organization)

John Brennan (Former CIA Director)

Tom Steyer (Millionaire Democratic Donor)

Kamala Harris (Senator)

James Clapper (Former Director of National Intelligence)

Can you imagine the carnage if just a fraction of these bombs went off on their intended targets? This will probably go down as one of the biggest domestic terrorism cases in US history and the FBI is saying there are possibly still more bombs out there? I think James Comey and Robert Mueller need to check their mail carefully.
