1) If the conflict with Iran is negotiated before the end of May and President Trump can turn his attention back to the economy and fraud-targets, that's enough time for the economy to recover and Republicans hold / gain.
2) IF the conflict is still going by the end of May, Dems take back the House (although the LA SC case may change this now and depending on what happens in the VA case)
3) There is likely to be no or very little shift in the Senate numbers, unless #2 is extended for another two months. (july)
I would've given "plausible" before yesterday's ruling...

everything spewing from herr goebells' msm is nothing but noise and fear tactical nonsense ... I choose to treat it as such in return...
sure, with 75% registered communists/Democrats he doesn't have much chance, but look what a reasonable, sane candidate for the people looks like compared to two insane, corrupt commie women who rely on the stupidity and illegality of their 'voters' along with ballot-stuffing for their continued power and wealth while their people suffer:

If the people there arent pissed off enough about their houses burning due to complete incompetence, and arent mad about practically nothing being done since then, then they deserve what they get and I wont feel sorry for them.

And here, among all the many illegal and disordered machinations by the Left to manipulate elections for their favor, I'll make the following sad observations:
The basic Democrat Party platform of today appears to be viciously against anything that could legally help them win. All the Democrats have to do is end their mindless, evil support for aborting the millions of their future voters they have murdered over the past 60 or so years and they'd be shoo-ins to win, legally most every time. Simple. And they'll never agree to let go of their primary sick grail of their own destruction. Stupid and evil is as stupid and evil does. No matter how much they scream like the spoiled brats they are.
However, coupled with the Democrat Dogma of abhorring marriage, celebrating single parent families, particularly, but not exclusively, those headed solely by women (whatever that is, right?), promoting disordered (and by definition inherently selfish) relationships that make raising stable, growing families more difficult, and with far less successful outcomes than stable, traditional marriages, and the blind promotion of government and other third parties doing the lion's share of child-rearing instead of having a stay-at-home parent or at least equally shared parenting where a stable family can be supported by a one-income provider (gotta keep raising that daygum minimum wage to unsustainable levels, after all), No wonder that Democrat Party feels like it has to support any number of illegal avenues for voter base expansion like importing hoards of incompatible ideologies and folks who have no interest in the American Dream that built this country for 200 years from a backwoods colonial society into a World powerhouse that set the example until it lost the narrative over the past 50 years. Democrats have devolved into spoiled, entitled children screaming at the cashier counter for other people to pay for what they want in any given moment and acting out in grotesque, collective tantrum until they get their way.
Most of America used to by and large ostracize the weirdo behaviors and disordered crap that today's Democrat Party vehemently insists is 'normal' and just as good as what most rational people have in this country considered normal for a good part of its history. Instead of agreeing to disagree, Democrats seek to forcibly foist their destructive, spoiled and idiotic ideology down regular folks' throats whether they want it or not until they scream enough to get their way, negative consequences to their own voter base and stable society in general be damned. Most people are tired of the disordered, spoiled brat tantrums from the weirdos. Geeks and freaks can go back to the shadows and live their miserable lives however they wish, but leave the rest of us who want good lives and love our great country, flaws and all, the heck alone.

There was a Democrat problem.
There are other examples, but these make the point very effectively. When people start viewing all of this as elements of the attack against America that they represent, maybe sensible people will exercise aggressive common-sense measures to stop it.
At this point I'd almost be fine with the FBI and the DOJ doing deep-dive investigations of every single one of the 535 people who govern this nation, with special focus on democrats since they almost certainly represent the majority of the abusers and violators of the sacred trust that we placed in them to represent us beneficially.
Can you imagine a world where all the women looked like those AI generated females? The people would get tired of seeing so much beauty and would try finding the ugly ones just to change things around...like that episode on the Twilight Zone where the medical staff are aghast at the pretty girl after her plastic surgery and then the camera pans to the medics and they all look like Rosie ODonnell with snouts.

Democrats have gerrymandered house districts in Blue states to the point that there are no competitive elections.
Democrats were counting on picking up seats in Red states because of the poorly drawn districts.
Now Republicans can simply redistrict Democrats out of seats they already have.
Add in Texas winning its redistrict case, Florida adding 4 Republican seats, and the Virginia Supreme Court possibly throwing out the recent election results, Democrats will remain in the minority in the House.
Remember Democrats didn’t have a problem with gerrymandering until Republicans started fighting back.
Sooner or later Democrats are going to have to tell us what they will do to make things better. They never do that. Impeaching Trump 14 times doesn't help anybody. The economy will be fixed as soon as ships start moving through the Strait of Hormuz. It's that simple. There is no economic problems here in America.
You explained exactly why Democrats are going to have a difficult time in November. They have no platform. They have no plan beyond obstructing the Trump agenda.
That might be enough if Democrats had a plan but they don’t. Top it off with Democrats being about as popular as a colonoscopy or a root canal and the usual out of power party power grab we usually see at Midterms may not materialize.
If you set out with the express goal to be as offensive as humanly possible to women, I’m not sure you could do a better job than James Talarico. What a fruitjob.

I'm thinking hard about flying over to Tampa to watch them open for Tesla and the Crue in Aug. Only problem it's at a shed. Gonna be hot as ballz.
that would be epic ... I'm not too old; just too immobilized for that type of event these days ... I hate this banged up old body with a passion!!!
last show I witnessed was Primus in '14 at the Hard Rock in your neighborhood ... had young bucks and does patting me on the back after the show at da bahhh in the casino - #energizedBunny #drippinSweat
saw the Crue in JXN with li'l bubba in '06 - what a night that was - details cannot be divulged (post divorce - he's still married) ...
saw Tesla in '87 at Lakefront when they opened for Def Leppard on the Hysteria tour ... still listen to Tesla's five man acoustical jam to this day ... what a great album!
can't tell you how many times I wore this groove out back in the day with 4 subs, two Rockford Fosgate 300w amps, and all kinds of other ear shattering mids and trebs in the 'stang ...

if you can, you just gotta go, bro!!!
Wife and I went to the final Crue show in Vegas in October at the Dolby theater. Awesome place to watch a show. They were good. John 5 stole the show and Vince sounding good for less than 12 months post stroke. Nikki doesn't even play. Great show. Last time I saw Tesla was at the Saenger in downtown Pensacola on Valentines Day 2020. Just before the Buffoons began to shut everything down. And no, I didn't get Covid. Very long show. Two openers for them. Some heavy band from Vegas and Bad Marriage, which is an Aerosmith clone from Boston. Was there 3.5 hours. There is a band out of New Orleans called Rock Show Nola. Those guys are good. Saw them at the Hard Rock two weekends ago doing a Foreigner set and then a Journey set. They are excellent. Had the saxophone on the stage for the first set and the double guitars.
Quote:7 Latin American elections since USAID was defunded:
Chile: "far-right" Kast won
Bolivia: "far-right" Paz won
Peru: "far-right" Fujimori won
Ecuador: "far-right" Noboa won
Honduras: "far-right" Asfura won
Colombia: "far-right" Espriella won
Costa Rica: "far-right" Fernandez won
funny how that works....less money for fraud eekels....
