I don’t trust polls but most have Paxton behind, which is concerning.

In your words:

So you had to take the word of reporters and wait for thepaper......those same reporters/networks that lied to us about the things you ignored on my previous post..

Could be 100% true or 100% false.......

But you post it as fact.......   

Trump said no new wars right?

 

Before you start with the but, but.  The Hill said a lot about Trump too. Nice cherry picking.

Just sad how you down play CNN, the Hill, MSNBC and everything not fox as opinion but when it fits your narrative it is displayed as facts.  No one is trying to one you. Go back and read your responses to articles you don't like that report on your dear 👑 from said Media.

Trump has a 17% approval. Can't use but, but.

If Democrats win congressional majorities in the midterm elections, their plan centers on aggressive legislative roadblocks, sweeping congressional oversight, and potential impeachment inquiries targeting President Donald Trump and his administration. 

 

🔎 Legislative Pushback & Affordability

• Reverse GOP Cuts: Attempt to overturn upcoming Medicaid and SNAP cuts scheduled from the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act".

• Protect Healthcare: Try to extend expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits.

• Force Votes: Use high-visibility floor votes on cost-of-living issues to put Republicans on the defensive, knowing they face presidential veto walls. 

 

📊 Aggressive Oversight & Subpoenas

• Investigate Corruption: Launch committee probes into Trump family business dealings, crypto ventures, and cabinet operations.

• Use Subpoena Power: Utilize majority committee budgets and subpoena authority to demand documents and testimony.

• Targeted Scrutiny: Focus inquiries on immigration enforcement, foreign policy execution, and federal contract awards. 

 

• Cabinet and Officials: Keep impeachment on the table as an option for specific administration or cabinet officials. 

• Presidential Scrutiny: Consider formal impeachment inquiries against President Trump if severe abuses of power are uncovered, though conviction via the Senate remains unlikely. 

• Fiscal Leverage: Use must-pass bills like debt limit increases or defense funding to extract policy concessions, risking high-stakes showdowns.

You now know the plan.

Yes, I pretty much knew all of that. Typical democrat congress. Impeach all republicans and bottleneck everything else. Man, that’s something to look forward to. I like the use of the words focus and utilize…..very vague. Impeach Trump “if” abuse of power is uncovered. What happened to just making stuff up? It cost the taxpayers $millions and accomplished absolutely nothing. That’s good government? Lmao.

Well….November the 3rd everyone gets to write their letter to Santa Claus by voting to make our country Gooder!

You call this good government?

$5000.00 for DOGE dividend

$2000.00 for Tariff dividend

Trump will pay a BIG $90.00 check to some seniors to help with medicare to assist with a portion of a month bill 😭

If MAGA win the midterm he will pay you $5000.00 if you plege your loyalty to his 👑

But it never happened.  No DOGE or Tariff dividends.  It was all alternative truth. What is not a lie is 2027 FEHB Premiums enrollees will pay 10.9% more on average to go along with high gas prices, groceries and electricity. 🌊🌊🌊🌊

We were talking about dem politics and you brought up Trump…..but but. Now you see why comparisons are key. The article you posted is about impeachment and bottleneck. What else is new?

Don’t cherry pick what I say to try and make a point. I was specifically talking about unnamed sources…. 
 

but a recent headline by CNN called the terrorist attack a “violent altercation”……

I responded with what the democratic plan was.  Its ok to disagree.  

Democrats win congressional majorities in the midterm elections, their plan centers on aggressive legislative roadblocks, sweeping congressional oversight, and potential impeachment inquiries targeting President Donald Trump and his administration. 

One thing for certain November 3, is 31 days away.

Some  yes - Build the wall, No tax on tips or SS....... I don't recall anyone else mentioning those. He got the tax on tips from a citizen at one of his rallies I do believe....

BUT THANK YOU for confirming what DCT could not - that Trump is the Republican party and his policies represent that. 

You’re welcome. I’ve recognized it for some time and do believe I have predicted that sooner or later he and his policies will lead the lemmings off the cliff with him. 
 

Thank you, as well, for confirming what the polls and prediction markets are saying. People are sick of empty promises. Sick of lies. Sick of institutional chaos. It’s all tied to Trump and Trump has the party tied to him. The dream is over.

Nahhhh - History has the minority will pick up seats at mid-terms when both houses are controlled by the majority.......

The question will be how many seats they gain, or not gain, and will that help or hurt the Vance's Presidential run in 2028. 

If Dems get a small majority, and spend time trying to impeach Trump again, I think that will helps Vance's odds of pulling off 2028.

Vance ain’t got the chops.

Who ?

The only contenders on the Democratic side are Kamala, Newsom and AOC. 

Republican party would be Vance, Rubio or DeSantis MAYBE.....

Who would you vote for?

John Ossoff and  Andy Beshear will run ahead of Newsom, AOC, and Harris. Dem ticket will demolish any Republican ticket imaginable. There’s not a Republican running with the guts to say Trump was wrong. And if they do, they show themselves as liars because they’ve all said he’s right for too long.

[mat]

The next GOP presidential candidate will be the one that can tap dance the best between Trumps term record and a new path. Trumps endorsement may carry some weight as well.

The dem options look very weak
