About time! Only took you guys 10 years. Sheesh.

Among the likely candidates, who is the Republican that you would like to win in 2028?

The Democrat congress can pass all the garbage they want and it’s going nowhere.

That said, republicans clearly need some sort of motivation to get off their a$$es and get out to vote.

The democrats will get in there and go full retard. They ALWAYS do.

Go ahead and impeach Trump again. Pass a bunch tranny legislation. You be you.

Then after two years idiocy personified and no more orange man to hate… the republicans will get off the couch and the dumbocrats will be back to having to win an election solely on the merits of their candidate.

Republicans will never show up to vote again.

It's over.

The party is dead.

Relax.

We survived that sub80 Kenyan.

Two years of vetoes and we take it all back.

Gridlock is a good thing.

Meanwhile the Exec and Scotus are ours

Tennessee Florida and Bama held the line.

Its all good.

GRIDLOCK. The best times America has had is when gridlock is in place, and the POTUS always gets the credit. The economy is on fire and will get even better going forward. The Trump policies are the sole reason. Gas prices will be decreased considerably when the new Congress takes office in January and Trump will speak about how it had nothing to do with Congress. Trump will speak every day how no new laws have been passed and the economy is on fire.

I guess for Dems, an extra high note is that now dogs can vote in Virginia.

It is a most slender "silver lining" when Florida of all places becomes the most sane of our 50 states.

Had Dems spent literally ANY money in FL and MS we would be seeing a blue nuclear bomb. I wouldn't sane wash FL. Floridaman is always there to remind.

It was also a good night for Iran and the IRGC.

"Dems" spent $18.76million on Colom. Republicans spent $8.04million on Hyde-Smith. It was 70%-30%. They also spent $50.24million in Florida to Moody getting $28.26million. 64%-36%. "Dems" outspent Republicans in both of those races by a considerable margin.

Maybe in the long run, but not for the next 55 or so days.

Until January 2, Trump still holds the stick - the odds of him using it just jumped.

There's no need to anymore. Iran got what it wanted. Sympathy from their enemy. Iran is broken.

Tennessee elects republican governor again (1st ever female)

My silver lining is that slimy dick pic sending Brent Taylor will be a lame duck from the second he walks into congress. He deserves it after the gerrymandering of Memphis and his utter incompetence.

Sadly TN continues to vote against their best interests. Jerri Green was a fabulous candidate and ran a super-close race, but now we have a home economics genius for governor who will sell TN to the highest bidder and continue to drag us down in every metric.

This campaign has shown that the door is open for a democrat to be back in the governor's mansion, however. Another silver lining.

I do not think Vance is the guy. I would much rather Rubio. Unfortunately, Trump is going to meddle in the primary and election and will probably ruin it for republicans. He and his damn ego.

Yep and the prog filth will frick it up. They always do. They are the reason we got the Magnificent Orange Bastard. The Rinos and the retards like Collins cost this election.

Lindsay Grahams sister FFS. What the hell were they thinking.

Reminder to Texas. Y'all just need to stfu


Trump is gonna veto all their retard shite and save the country. The do nothing Rinos will do what they always do. Nothing

The prog filth won't do one damn thing they promised. They never do.

I don't think Vance has ANY shot. He's not likeable, at all. And he will be saddled with all the trump baggage unless he manages to distance himself which won't be easy. If he tries, trump will bury him out of spite.

Rubio is much more likeable...but he'll also have to shed his pathetic sell-out to trump.

Trump picked Paxson in TX, Collins in GA, Graham in SC and backed Ramaswamy in OH. Trump screwed it up with bad candidates and not enough action to deal with inflationary food and gas prices and all the overblown bluster about Iran while the war and blockades continued. High fuel prices cost Republicans big in the corn & wheat belts from Ohio to Kansas. This loss is ALL on Trump. A lot of Republicans didn't see a reason to go out and vote. A lot of Democrats did. The blue counties in Georgia had about a 50% higher turnout than the red counties. If turnout was the same, it might have been 55-45 for Republicans instead of 55-45 for Democrats.

Vance has already started distancing himself from Trump, and two years is a long time for whatever to happen. I do think the Repubs may need to trot out someone that hasn't been under Trump's umbrella, but again, two years is a long time away and who knows what may happen between now and then.
