I am really sick of people blowing smoke up our ass insulting our intelligence pretending like it was some great night. Just be honest and say it was a disaster. An “off cycle year”???? Is he kidding? Everyone knows how first term incumbent midterms turn out. If you want to see a great night, go look at the tea party wave on Obama’s “off cycle” midterms. 63 house seats and 6 senate seats. Biden gets to walk out and say he stopped the red wave, and he will be right that there was no red wave. There wasn’t even a red trickle. It’s a rounding error. We went from a 5 seat Dem House majority to a roughly 2-5 seat R House majority (still remains to be seen) after being told by both sides for a month of Red October that it was going to be a 40-50 seat tsunami. Just be honest about what this was, otherwise we are no better than CNN and the shit sandwich’s they spin to look like caviar.
The ONLY positive thing I see possibly coming of this is that McCarthy and Mitch are complete failures. This may be the washout we need to get rid of this leadership. They cannot claim any big victory here whereas they would’ve looked like superheroes if they delivered massive wins. If this razor thin win gets rid of Nancy, McCarthy, Schumer, AND McConnell in one fell swoop, then maybe it was worth it and that was the objective.
