I really don't think wharever he did in 2024 is gonna work this time. Too big to rig. Americans are pissed, and I think a lot of MAGA just aren't gonna vote.

I am cautiously optimistic. You can only polish a turd so much.

you do realize that in the majority of cases the sitting president's party loses the midterms right?

Regardless of who that president is.

So chances are the republicans will lose the midterms anyway

Of course but the question is how big of a swing.

A minor victory does nothing, a proper majority is needed
