How about a little more specific than a significant number of seats? The media predicts four seats lost in the Senate. I will go with more than that.

Doesn't it bother you at all that every single word coming out of your mouth is a falsehood?

1. The first impeachment was not about Russian collusion. It was about Trump pressuring a foreign president (Ukraine) to dig out dirt on his (Trump's) political opponent.

2. The second impeachment was not about Russian collusion, either. It was about Trump unleashing his rabid stormtroopers on the Nation's Capitol to prevent peaceful transfer of power.

3. Your so called "legitimate" reasons to impeach Biden is a huge laugh. A ridiculous sour-loser threat that will never materialize simply because there is nothing there.

And a vague one, too, as it's always the case with all your ramblings.

What's really astonishing to me is that Trump is yet to be criminally charged with the incitement of rioting. He's thousands times more guilty than any of those 700 lunatics who have been charged already. Impeachment is clearly not enough for the crime of this magnitude.

Posting the truth never bothers me. Biden has done more in 1 year to be impeached than Trump ever did.

Well, that is very encouraging for the Dems. If your midterm election outcome prediction is as far off and in the wrong direction as your apparent prognostications for total stock market gains under Clinton, Obama and now Biden, it is possible the Dems will actually gain a Senate seat or two.

What difference would it make if the Dems lose one or 10 Senate seats, lose the House by 1 or 60 Repub-gerrymandered to disregard all potential Dems districts? The end result will be Biden and the Dems have already locked in more meaningful legislation destined to continue saving the lives of Americans who are not too stupid to accept the free offer, create millions more higher paying jobs and improve America and the lives of Americans more than all the previous Repub administrations and Congresses combined.

Biden's main goal then will be to prevent congressional Repubs from doing something typically astonishingly stupid to fuck it up. Just as Clinton and Obama prevented Repubs from doing that on their watch. In their case, Repubs had to wait until the next Repub slithered into the White House to start doing their astonishingly stupid things to Crash the Economy, the stock market and wipe out millions of jobs.

Again, you're cherry picking individual polls. A "consensus" of the polls is the far more accurate one to use and, yes, RealClearPolitics provides that information even though their consensus results are heavily weighted and influenced by Rasmussen, which oversamples Repubs so egregiously many other polling report sites don't even include or mention them.

You see, the "consensus" of polls is how all polling sites judge the accuracy or not in the polls based on the actual election outcome.

Now, if we were to only cherry pick individual polls, you would find many, many instances of Trump's Job Approval Rating hitting 33-34% Approve and 60% Disapprove, not just one rarity like that one for Biden. See how that works against your side?

In the RCP link you provided the consensus numbers can be found by tapping that little three horizontal line "hamburger button" icon in the upper left corner of the screen.

That is where you find that, even with as much oversampling of Repubs as many of RCP's favorite polls engage in, Biden's Job Approval / Favorability Rating consensus today is higher than Trump's was at this point in his presidency, yes pre Trump's Pandemic, higher than Trump's was at the end of his presidency, higher in Favorability than Trump's is today, higher than for Moscow Mitch, higher than for Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Kevin McCarthy and higher than the entire House and Senate generally.

Yes, higher than Kamala Harris' too!

It shows that Biden is the least disliked and disapproved of person among all current elected federal leadership officials and all living defeated former presidents with the probable exception of Carter.

For anyone citing poll numbers as "proof" of a successful or accomplished presidency, as defeated former presidents go, Carter's exit poll numbers were also better than defeated former so-called president Trump's were. But in Carter's day we really had only a handful of major polls like Gallup to go on, not the dozens to choose from for a "consensus" like we have today.

I wonder what Lincoln's poll numbers individually or in consensus would have been throughout his presidency. I'm guessing any polling service that oversamples the same regional voters who vote Repub today as Rasmussen does had conducted the polling back then, Lincoln's Job Approval Rating would have lingered somewhere around 10% Approve and 90% Disapprove from 1861 until that fateful night at Ford's Theatre. But that is just a guess.

I'm pretty sure most legal experts would agree Harris could and should be impeached as VP for working to post bail for domestic terrorists during the faux campaign of 2020.

Here are a couple of many reasons.

1. Leaving Americans stranded in Afghanistan and arming the Taliban in Afghanistan.

2. Not securing our borders allowing illegals, criminals, drugs and terrorists to pour into our country.

Biden is destroying our country. He has to be stopped.

[Xpartan]

Yes democrats had 2 bogus impeachments with fake Russian collusion but if Republicans get control of the house and senate they have several legitimate reasons to impeach Biden and Harris.

Smart money is on the under with TrumpShit's involvement.

He'll soon be turning many more pubs into losers.

RCP map of the senate shows just seven of the 2022 senate races too close to call, with only four of those seats currently held by Democrats.

Only suckers with no objectivity expect a run of the table by one side.

I would be surprised to see Dr. Oz win in Pennsylvania due to the Shit help he gets.

Um, you're reading and quoting an opinion piece on that site. The various Jobs Approval and Favorability Ratings are found in the drop down menu.

The logical prediction for the midterms is the same pattern for the 1st midterm of a new presidency combined with the same pattern for what happens to Dems in Congress after they pass and enact historic legislation that Repubs and their typically loyal benefactors in Maistream Media effectively demonize and frighten the American people over early on for their purposes but inevitably turn out to be among the most revered and guarded components that Makes America Great; they lose significant numbers of seats.

It happened after every major Dem improvement on American life from FDR to LBJ to Clinton to Obama. Which means it will probably happen with Biden, too.

None of the "gotcha" demonizing of sucker culture war issues matter in the least to that outcome even though pro Repub pundits will try to claim guru status for recognizing and pointing to them.

They are not needed to produce that likely midterm outcome. That is just the pattern and the way Americans can be swayed and influenced whether it is the 1930's, 1960's, 1990's, 2000's or 2020+.

Voters won't need much influence if the next 9 months follow the pattern of historical catastrophe that Biden created in 2021. Obama was bad but Biden makes even him look good. Biden and Harris are so incompetent that they are killing the democrat party. Should be a fun November.

[PVMonger]

I believe you. Right-wingers are so far off the rails that mainstream Republicans are same as Marxists to you.

As I have said many times, the wingers on this board consider anything more liberal than "Slavery and the Holocaust were great ideas" is Marxist, communist or socialist.

[Canada]

First, you "corrected" nothing unilaterally. You "corrected" your 25% comment after you got called out on it several times.

Now, as to the following statements I made: "As in, "Everybody knows" that windmills cause cancer.

Or as in, "Everybody knows" that Chinese thermostats changed votes.

Or as in, "Everybody knows" that injecting bleach cures COVID."

Statement#1 and statement #3 were made by none other than the former guy, your hero, the twice-impeached so-called potus. Statement #2 was made by a DOJ official (Jeffrey Clark) who was appointed by the aforementioned twice-impeached so-called potus.

So it was your guy and his guy who made outlandish statement. If you'd like, I'll post more outlandish statements by the twice-impeached Cheeto McBonespurs. Unfortunately, many supporters of the former guy believe all of his outlandish statements.

Yes democrats had 2 bogus impeachments with fake Russian collusion but if Republicans get control of the house and senate they have several legitimate reasons to impeach Biden and Harris. The 2 impeachments may be a blessing in disguise.

[D Cups]

You are so right! I don't know if any of you got to see Biden speech totally but he is a total disaster. Clueless. Saying the same things over and over with no solutions in sight.

CG, you are correct in all of the points you are making. The dumbocrats are delusional, misinformed, misguided and just plain stupid. And you can't fix stupid! Fuck Joe Biden and all the idiots that voted for him! Life in the USA has gotten so bad I am leaving permanently for greener pastures in the Philippines (actually retiring there) where I will not have to listen the dribbling horseshit that the dumbocrats incessantly spew (while the economy continues to tailspin out of control). Plus the Filipina chicks are super sweet and sexy: total opposite of their American fat-ass counterparts. I say good riddance to the USA and what it has become!

[Xpartan]

I'm not a republican or democrat, I don't hate Joe Biden.

I believe you. Right-wingers are so far off the rails that mainstream Republicans are same as Marxists to you.

[EihTooms]

LOL. Is that what it said?

"At 42%, the model envisions virtually no chance for Democrats to hold the Senate and predicts a loss of four seats as the most likely outcome. At 42%, the Colorado Senate seat could potentially come into play, assuming that Republicans produced a credible candidate (remember that a relatively unheralded candidate held Sen. Michael Bennet to a six-point margin in 2016)."

Eih, you are great at revisionism. Somehow Carter was a better president than Reagan but let us try the future. Tell me what happens in the midterms this year. Make your prediction.
