Someone needs to talk to Trump about handling women (and not in the way he is used to - because that hasn't been working).
French Prez Macron held Trump's tiny hands. Imbecile Trump tried bigly-squeezing to prove his 'power'. Did work out as old-man Trump planned.

Perhaps they should do a wife swap. Macron still gets an older woman and Trump still gets one younger than him.

I've tried to help liberals understand reality, but they refuse. They simply believe whatever soothes their wounded egos. They are beta. They are cucks. I suppose it's really just that simple. And sad.
As I've said repeatedly, this isn't going to end well for Trumpers:

(In fairness to Montana half of the votes were already in before the criminal assault but Montana still loses)
It was that close and the mail-in votes were so significant in number that the Dem would have likely won. GOP can celebrate this one but they might not be so lucky the next few times.

Think of it this way. They married for superficial reasons, that is not disputable since she was a model and he is a blowhard ogre with a lot of money. So, for this whole time they never had to really interact, do you think they even speak regularly? No reason to. She does her thing he does his, period. So now comes this situation... they are being forced to spend time together. She can't take his egomania and he doesn't want to bother with courtesy, etc.. this is why you will keep seeing what you are seeing. They are not a couple, they are just unified on paper, period.

The Dems/Libs better come up with something soon or their toast. Perez's public swearing was a good start. Now they need to do a couple of drive by shooting or maybe get 3 or 4 Senators to jump Mitch McConnell, record it, and post it on Facebook live. That should get them some votes!

I admit this actually made me laugh. Do you think America has reached the point where voters will start electing officials based on their ability to beat up other elected officials? Schwarzenegger and Ventura were a good test run.
And people laugh when I say we are already living the Idiocracy script

So losing another seat doesn't feel good, Dems, but coming this close to a win in a rural red state is actually good news.
I'm reading that if this trend continues - of the Dems running so much better than they ran in November, the House flipping is a sure thing, and with some margin.
The big one is Ossoff on June 20 - if the Dems can't win that one, the story starts to reverse itself.
Dems have the passion right now - not based on any one candidate or platform, but over a sense of outrage at what Trump is doing to this nation.
Remember trump encouraged people to hate reporters - his minions are just taking up that command.
Ossof is going to be the official turning point in the recent political trend. The GOP grabbed hold of power, but due to Trump's antics it is going out like a flame.

Perhaps it would change the story, but I wouldn't see it that way. I think an Ossoff victory is quite a long shot. Republicans still vote for Republicans, and we are talking about a heavily Republican district.
More polling might change my mind, but I just don't see Ossoff pulling it off.
People rarely change sides, BUT they either show up to the polls or they don't depending on how happy they are with their candidates and current leadership. It is the south and he's running against a female republican. Lots of female republicans will not vote for her bc of sexism. A lot of republicans in general may not show up because they aren't happy with the party right now. It will be a test. Democrats will definitely show up in bigger numbers, this election has caught a lot of attention.

Did you see the Macron Trump dis? Macron came out walking toward Trump and when close did a pivot to Merkel, and proceeded to greet everyone else and Trump one of the last.

Typically that's within the margin of error on the poll. I'd call it a dead heat.
It's not a good idea to take one race as a keystone event. I've posted before that the Democratic party is still a long way off from being relevant. They better get on the Bernie train, quick.

How many days has he gone without golfing? Is he getting his daily consumption of fake news? Has he had any more deep thoughts about economics or history?
The man is so impulsive he can't possibly keep up the facade. Loser.

Could you imagine how fried he is after spending his whole life golfing and resting at will? He will be extra needy and moody when he returns to the WH, admin team needs to get ready for the return of the ultimate man child.

Not at the rate they've been going. The party has to pivot from right-of-center to swing the swing votes in a general election. Local politics is it's own thing. If the National organization is working the locals, it's not going to end well.
The new National guy is more of the same that lost so badly in 2016.
The Idiocracy comment is true. In many ways, it's not a good movie. In other ways, it is brilliant. We are living the broader themes. You might add Brazil, the Terry Gilliam movie to the short list.

Agree the party hasn't pivoted yet and it needs to, but I think Trump has single-handedly soured things enough for Republicans to not show up to the polls. We shall see.
Trumpettes are NOT Americans!

ossoff is up by 7 points, and betting odds have him as the favorite now.
I hear you - it's a republican district. But one that was essentially a tie in November. If the Dems can't pull out just a few more points now than they had in November, it would be a very bad sign.
It wasn't a tie in November. You are looking at Trump's performance there. But it's not really a Trump-friendly district. It's quite wealthy and well-educated. Lots of tech jobs. These are Bush/Regan Republicans.
The race to look at from November is the house race. The Republican, Tom Price, won 62 to 38. So they aren't trying to overcome a 1-point difference. It's really a 24 point difference.
I'll need to see some more polling before I believe that Ossoff is really a 7 point favorite.
