Democrat Strategist: Party is ‘F***ed in Midterms if We Don’t Get S*** Done Soon’
Wendell Husebø 24 Jun 2021
A Democrat fundraising strategist admitted Thursday to Politico the Democrat Party is “f***ed in the midterms if we don’t get s*** done soon.”
The vulgarity and panic come as Democrats are struggling to resolve inflation, unemployment, the border crisis, and the coronavirus origin scandal amid congressional gridlock that has the left concerned about losing the 2022 midterms to Republicans.
“It’s just frustration,” former Democratic fundraiser and founder of the National Democratic Training Committee Kelly Dietrich also told Politico.
The establishment media excused the frustration as “suffering from a hangover after sweeping Trump from office and emerging from the worst of the coronavirus pandemic.”
The frustration is now turning inward. Just on Wednesday, Rep. Mondaire Jones (D-NY) told President Joe Biden he needs to be more involved in pushing radical-left measures, like federalizing elections, to which Biden apparently “just sort of stared” at Jones, not knowing what to say.
On the immigration front, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) tweeted that Vice President Kamala Harris’ comments in the Northern Triangle were “disappointing.”
“Seeking asylum at any US border is a 100% legal method of arrival,” Ocasio-Cortez countered the Vice President’s words.
Ocasio-Cortez has also unloaded on Biden for negotiating with Republicans on infrastructure, saying the time spent negotiating is “setting the planet on fire” and “dismantling voting rights.”

Democrat Strategist: Party is ‘F***ed in Midterms if We Don’t Get S*** Done Soon
They are talking about destroying America as we know it, and then re-inventing America into a third world shiite hole. They are well on their way to succeeding too.

A little Historical perspective.
Why the President's Party Loses Seats in Midterm Elections
The President's Party Almost Always Loses Seats in Congress
By Tom Murse
Updated February 04, 2020
Midterm elections are not friendly to the president's political party. Modern midterm elections have resulted in an average loss of 30 seats in the House of Representatives and Senate by the political party whose president occupies the White House.
Midterms, held in even years in the second year of a president's four-year term, are typically thought of as a barometer of the majority party's popularity among the electorate. And with few exceptions, they're pretty ugly.
Competing Theories
There are competing theories for why the president's party suffers in midterm elections. One is the belief that a president who is elected in a landslide, or because of a "coattails effect," will suffer deep losses in the midterms.
The "coattail effect" is a reference to the effect a very popular candidate president has on voters and candidates for office who are also on the ballot in presidential election years. Candidates of a popular presidential candidate's party are swept into office on their coattails.
But what happens two years later in the midterm elections? Apathy.
The University of Houston's Robert S. Erikson, writing in the Journal of Politics, explains it this way:
"The stronger the presidential victory margin or the more seats won in the presidential year and therefore 'at risk,' the greater will be the subsequent midterm seat loss."
Another reason: the so-called "presidential penalty," or the tendency of more voters to go the polls only when they are angry. If more angry voters vote than do satisfied voters, the president's party loses.
In the United States, voters typically express dissatisfaction with the president's party and remove some of his senators and members of the House of Representatives. Midterm elections provide a check on the president's power and give power to the electorate.
Worst Midterm Election Losses
During the midterm election, one-third of the Senate and all 435 seats in the House of Representatives are at stake.
In the 21 midterm elections held since 1934, only twice has the president's party gained seats in both the Senate and the House: Franklin Delano Roosevelt's first midterm election and George W. Bush's first midterm election.
On four other occasions, the president's party gained Senate seats and once it was a draw. On one occasion, the president's party gained House seats. The worst midterm losses tend to occur in a president's first term.
Modern midterm election results include:

After massive lies,deceptions, and false promises, the great mystery of why the voters later are mad enough to make the ruling party pay for their substantial indiscretions. Its like grade school math being a great mystery, eh? 1+1=2

Lets not be to quick to believe Pubs will win big in 2022.
Have the Pubs been able to fix the election systems in the States with the greatest vote fraud.
Have the Dominion vote machines been replaced?

Indeed.
The truth before us is stark, and it's a tough roe to hoe.
Unless the democrat-communist "underground election apparti" in these states is broken up or otherwise prevented from functioning in 2022 and 2024, we'll be in no better position then then we were on November 3, 2020.
Outside of Georgia, I see no meaningful attempts to do so in any of the states that will again be critical for a Republican presidential victory in 2024.
You can't win if you won't fight.
And the Pubbies in those states ain't fightin' ...

Agreed. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Ronna McDaniels, needs to go, otherwise the GOP is looking at Romney as the nominee and he'll lose before he even gets started.
Nothing has been done by the RNC/GOP to put systems into place,nor bills into action to ensure ballot integrity and a fair election.
Some states are trying, but it is going to take ALL GOP states to move and DO something!
IF the GOP thinks that Biden and Kamel are going to screw things up so badly that people will vote for anyone with an R by their name, which is their usual out of touch logic, they are very sadly mistaken and in for a huge surprise.
As of now, the GOP offers absolutely nothing and has done absolutely nothing. Notta. And those that think that Trump is going to swoop in and save the day are sadly mistaken --- there's not a chance in Hades that they leftist/marxist/globalist are going to let that happen, especially with Romeny and McConnell still in place. Secondly, they will keep him and his money tied up in legal battles.

Trump didn't swoop in and save the day. Under his tenure we lost control of Congress. I'm not impressed.

Yeah with the deep state infiltrated into all areas of government, betraying and attempting a coup on the President of the United States, and still viciously going after him. We should all kneel down before Biden and the deep state and become professional Lewinskys. Regardless of mountainous betrayal of deep stater that have infiltrated into Americas fabric like a vicious spreading aggressive cancer. How could Trump have failed us like he did? How DARE HE ?
