I do think it still is possible for Republicans to win state politics in years with a Dem president. Cuccinelli might’ve won in 2013 if not for the Libertarian candidate. Presidential and senate races are just off the table though.

Many of the older folks I see in Virginia still react with shock and confusion when va votes blue, but for the younger generation va has been nothing but a reliable D pickup for our lifetimes. Youngkin was an anomaly produced by unique nationwide factors plus D gaffs

@TruueDiscipline I’m pretty sure most presidents have a post-honey moon drop

Jensen Huang’s resignation has left many Danish Americans feeling unsettled by the haunting notion that they’ve denied all their lives:

That no matter how successful, a Danish name will be picked apart under harsher scrutiny and never stay in leadership for very long.

I like there are a lot of Republican politicans who are just crypto democrats. Not a lot of Democrats that are crypto Republicans. Maybe Republicans should think about investing in sociopaths who can cross party lines easily.

If turnout favors Democrats in 2028, they could get pretty close to 60 seats in the senate. I am very jealous, honestly. In 2016, we only had 241 house seats and 52 Senate seats. So much R infighting, especially over immigration. Democrats seem much more ideologically aligned.

[Olly Bosque @BasqueOli]

They wouldn't even have to nuke the filibuster in such a scenario. Disastrous Republican leadership could make sure of that. These next few decades will be something...

Republicans have a *very* narrow path to retake the Senate in 2028, as mapped out below.

However, such a path doesn't exist without also winning the White House.

[Olly Bosque @BasqueOli]

Wisconsin, NC, and SC could be flips for the Dems. Republicans only barely won the Senate race in Florida. Kansas could also be an option. It all depends on how bad these next two years are.

“Private equity son or Indian CEO daughter?”

[NE-Techworkers @CTechworkers]

Appointing an Indian as CEO is becoming an instant indicator of the decline of a company... Kind of like when Jim Cramer comes out in favor of a stock ... You have to immedicately short the company

Not only this, but the Qing continued Shamanic practices until the end of their dynasty and the ban on intermarriage between the Han and Manchus wasn't overturned until 1902. It seems that they were less assimilated than is assumed.

If the vice presidency still went to the runner up I wonder if that would discourage parties from running really old people

Democrat voters are more likely to use SNAP. That said, these crackdowns may have dissuaded some Independents and Republicans from voting R in the midterms.

There's an unlimited supply of 18-22 year old men who want to become Congressional staffers and try to trick clueless Boomer Congressmen who worship Israel and black people into unknowingly enacting their neo-Nazi agenda but none of them are willing to do the hard work of going to law school, marrying a bitch wife they hate, being a trial lawyer for 30 years, then become a Congressman themselves at age 55

Patrick Clancy made a good amount of money. They even hired a nanny to take a lot of the edge off on raising kids. Made a good amount of money and he supported his spouse. He was a good catch and still ended up with an ugly wife.

A very wise man once said: Democracy is like a streetcar. Once you reach your destination, you step off.

Remember to step off next time around.

2/ the biggest factor is the switch to winter gasoline. after Sept 15, stations can sell winter blend, which is cheaper to make. summer gas has to meet tighter evaporation rules, and that costs refiners more.

@ChristianHeiens After the 2016 elections, Republicans only got 241 seats. Couldn't even pass Securing America's Future Act of 2018 because of R infighting. Dems are more ideologically aligned AND they have more seats...
