Well it's a start. Since this is before leaker of the free world and CBO score I expect to see this grow in the short term. I don't think I'll be happy until the generic hit +20.
Yup. He sees an L in the future and is dodging it. (That's some excellent bullshittery for his excuse tho.)

Interesting to hear.
If Hillary won Tiberi would have ran 100%.

McMaster doubling down

D+20 and we'd have 56-58 Senate seats.
That range is conducive to winning the Tennessee and Texas (should Corbyn take the FBI Director job) special elections.

Everyone who works for Trump gets broken down. It's like he's indoctrinating them.

2018 would have been a disaster. A possible veto proof majority would have been on the table. Then we'd have GOP craziness with no way for Hillary to stop it, but she'd get all the blame for the problems it would cause.
Another Trump dignity wraith, although it's more sad than pathetic in his case because he's a soldier and feels obligated to show loyalty to his Commander in Chief, that his duty to country precludes him from saying "fuck this guy."
Why would he do this when trump literally admitted what he did this morning??

Wouldn't the first bit of "whew maybe this really is overblown" news be that it's a conspiracy theory with no actual evidence behind it?

I think if Democrats take everything back by 2020 the first thing we should do is push a stimulus bill that explicitly targets rural communities.
Job training programs, stronger health benefits, installation of broadband internet, school and road modernization.
And then for the next four years when Democrats are accused of being elitist liberals ignoring the plight of the working class we have one bill to point to, that we've done more for rural communities than the past fifty years of Republican presidents.
And then we pass single-payer and free college.

#BREAKING Trump to give speech on Islam in Saudi Arabia: White House
This gonna be interesting
High scholar Donald is probably the most competent person to speak about Islam

The worst of it would have another wipeout at the state level, with heavily Republican state legislatures and governorships in place to lock in another decade of R-friendly gerrymandering in 2021.
Here's the problem- this is pallatative care for the community. Pumping money to subsidize a lifestyle that's fundamentally unsustainable because there's no business to drive the local economy is a bad long term idea.
I'm not that we shouldn't be assisting them, but that the real long-term solution is to do things to help people move.

This actually used to be a pretty solid strategy the Democrats would employ.
of course it uh hit a roadblock with the whole Civil Rights Act thing
Or Trump doesn't give a shit and doesn't take in all the details.

More likely Trump just can't be bothered to care about the minutiae. They try to brief him and share details but he just says, I'm a smart guy, I don't need you to tell me these things, I'll figure it out, where is the golf course?
Sheeeeit. If he goes off-script, all hell will break loose.
Well yeah, after I saw the Snopes article especially. But when things are first breaking it's not always totally clear what to believe. Hindsight is a blessing.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
My man Biden on top. Interesting how Franken only gets 46% and Rock gets 42. Perhaps this is putting a real damper on chances for anyone with a Hollywood connection.

I firmly believe that.I bet they can't wait to hear about his historic electoral college victory.

I think that may be because he doesn't have the same recognition as the others.

Expect the Republicans to have a very difficult time recruiting for this cycle (and quite possibly the next).

Was there ever a plurality favoring Clinton's impeachment? My recollection was that it was never above the anti-impeachment number. Could this be the first time the public favors impeachment in the modern era (other than Nixon)?
To be fair, judging by his Twitter, he's like the Dalia Lama compared to Trump or any Republican.

What could go wrong
This cycle i think there'll be enough suckers who think they can do it. "Conventional Wisdom" will continue to hold that Brown, Baldwin, and Casey are vulnerable (even though by now they're very much not), that you'll get someone with decent chops to run against them in all three states.
They'll fail, terribly (go outside spit, Trump is President, etc), but the GOP narrative is still that the Dems are in disarray and on the verge of being wiped out outside of New England and California, and there'll be enough people getting high on their own supply to believe that.

Booker, Franken and The Rock poll lower because less people know their politics. 50% in that poll don't have an opinion either way about The Rock, but he gets the same share of Trump voters' support (15%) that Sanders does. I imagine there's a lot of Democrats on the fence in that match-up. Booker and Franken were also far-less known quantities than Biden, Sanders or Warren when PPP looked at the primary field earlier this year.
Not much to glean there other than Biden and Sanders having near-universal recognition.

I have zero confidence in Warren getting through 6 months of a campaign with 24 hour news and not losing the lead.
Wow, I wonder how often will Trump say "Radical Muslim Terrorists" or "travel ban"
I dunno, I read that more as most known politically to least known.

I don't think Hillary would have gotten a Supreme Court pick, either, honestly. McConnell would likely have permanently blocked it and faced no real consequences, especially in the context of a 2018 GOP wave.
I'm pretty sure Warren would agree w you.
Bernie, Warren are too old and are already targets. You have to go new.
