2020 election: US Senate battle

Democrats need to flip three states to win back the Senate if they also capture the White House. But only two Republicans are up in states President Trump lost in 2016 — Colorado and Maine — meaning Democrats will have to win in red states to control the chamber.

Sorry to repeat myself, but the Democrats won't have control of the Senate until there are 40 or fewer GOP Senators, because of the filibuster. The Democrats cannot impeach Trump or amend the Constitution unless there are 33 or fewer GOP Senators, because the Constitution requires a two-thirds super majority.

Not trying is not the same as trying and failing. It would show Dem voters that Dems not going to sit by and do nothing. Can you say with 100% certainty that no GOP Senators would flip? That not one will start to worry about their re-election chances with them being tied to this lying monkey? And if 1 or 2 flip, that could start something bigger. It's UnAmerican to not try! Misbehave Goramnit!


Plus, it's their job and it's just ethically the Right thing to do. Let's not send a signal that when one party is "in control" the other one is pointless.

Things will only irreversibly change for better when there are 33 or fewer GOP Senators, but getting the GOP down to only 49 Senators will get people overly confident that noticeably change is on the way. I hate to burst your optimistic bubble but it is NOT until the number drops to 33. Think of it as how much cancer is in your blood. The lower the number, the longer you live, and America won't be healthy enough to function until that number is 33 GOP Senators.

I'm not kidding about calling GOP Senators cancer. Have you ever talked to Ted Cruz or John Cornyn, Texas Senators? Those two are leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma all rolled together.

2017 was not a good year in the Senate. It passed a ridiculous tax cut that adds a $1 trillion per year to the National Debt (which should not happen when the economy is good) and the Senate picked a bunch of nitwits to be Federal Judges. In 2017, for the first time, the Senate’s decisions were often made by a coalition of GOP states representing less than half of the country’s population. The median share of senators supporting passed bills, confirmed judges and agency leaders, and other matters dropped to 58% (the lowest since 1930), with those senators representing just 49.5% of the U.S. population (the lowest ever)! Look at graphs to see the previous 200 years. Things are breaking down in the Senate and adding 2 more Democrats won't fix it. It will need at least 67 Democrats in the Senate.

In Harris County, where the biggest city is Houston, all the Republican politicians lost their Harris county offices in November 2018. Every Republican from the justice of the peace all the way up to the top judgeship positions are gone and we don't have listen to their damn stupidity and their irrational fears, at least until the next campaigns start in 2020. That is impossible for the Federal government, which is not designed for a clean sweep to remove all traces of the stupidest, stubbornest, most cowardly jackasses of the GOP. That is because there will always be states that send GOP jackasses to Congress and so long as it is more than one-third of the states, those jackasses in the Senate will be able to wreck anything and everything. What is even worse, the Federal government can't purge itself of GOP judges, with their lifetime appointments, which is completely unlike judges in Harris County, who can be changed at every election.

Does it sound like I dislike Republicans? It goes far beyond disliking the politics of the typical Republican voter who approves of Trump. (There are Republicans that I approve of. Funny how they are not bitter at life, all are successful, and all know Trump is a crook and racist. These are people who are not an ugly skin-cancer on America, unlike your typical Trump-lover.)

There is something seriously wrong in the brains of people who make excuses for Trump, and it shows in other parts of their lives far away from politics. I had that same feeling about the people who made excuses for the stupid tactics used to fight the Vietnam War. Could they be convinced that what they were doing was a guaranteed losing strategy? No. Not even losing could convince them that they were fighting all wrong. Many were Democrats during Vietnam, but today they are Republicans. They switched parties, but they are still using the same brain as in 1970, and have the same problems they still haven't the brains to ever solve, no matter that it is 2019.

Yup - agreed. I saw someone post on this here forum, "What took you so long? I knew 2 years ago (about Trump)..." and I laughed because I knew Trump was a fraud from 32 years ago when Art of the Deal came out. "This f*cking guy..." "Snake oil" etc.

"There is something seriously wrong in the brains of people who make excuses for Trump..." I'm not sure it's "the brain" as much as just a lack of knowledge and experiences. Splitting hairs maybe. Maybe some or all of the above. But whatever - sitting around for 2020 is also a malfunction of the brain imho. You don't know anything until you try it.
Remember Y2K? Remember how we knew the earth would implode? Remember how Hillary DIDN'T WIN???

No worries - you keep hoping the GOP will get a better brain and I'll keep hoping the Dems won't be the same old weak-ass over-thinking hand-wringing do-nothing Dems they seem to have always been. That's the one thing I'll give Trump credit for - he knows most people hate conflict. They avoid it like the plague, especially if public failure might be a consequence. While he embraces it, loves it, and could give a f*ck if he's embarrassed. He'll just lie his way to the next one, bfd.

Somebody ought to investigate Prism Communications, where the money for their $120k in donations came from and all states should pass laws to bar any outside money coming in from other states for these elections in the future.

Many decades ago, when dems still wore a faint Kennedy glow, I remember getting letters from various out-of-state campaigns ... this (name the democrat) is in a tight race in (name the state) and needs your contribution to win.

Except for being computerized, statistics-run, and contracted-out, I'm not sure that Prism is any different from decades ago.

Young Trump Voters Like These Are Key to a 2020 Victory

The article says "could be" key, and that's from Trump's campaign manager, so duh. I think you fell for Newsweek's marketing is all. They quote a few young moonbeams and you're all over it like it's fact. One of them even says, "He means what he says and says what he means. I think that's what a president should do," which is incredibly stupid and funny when it refers to the biggest liar in the history of mankind.

I'd say Newsweek got a lot of money with that issue from GOP and Dem haters - a demographic they rarely appeal to. So good for them!
