Yeah, well they had 8 years with a Black Man in the WH and he did precious for Black people anywhere in the world.
So the dems can just STFU.

I believe pretty much what Tom said. I will add that after 8 or so months of receiving bigger paychecks and having heard how Democrats felt about the tax cuts a case can be made for increased Republican voters.

So now he's stuck having to pander to the redstate, daily mail, Fox News, Breitbart crowd when he really wants to be a WSJ President.
To anyone willing to look at what he's done objectively vs. what he's said it's very incongruent.

So much fake news is being reported. They don't even try to get it right or correct it when they are wrong. They promote the book of a mentally deranged author,who knowingly writes false information. The Mainstream Media is crazed
that WE won the election.

The Democrats have a big edge in November with the "Average Joe Voter". The Dem candidates for the House and Senate can make the election about Trump, and a lot of GOP candidates have to make the election Not About Trump.
Trump was able to beat Hillary, and was probably the only one that could, because he brought out the Alt-Right vote, who probably would not have bothered turning out for Jeb, Mario, etc. Added to regular GOP voters, they were enough to elect Trump.
They were fired up by Trump's promises to build a wall, deport 12 million illegals, repeal and replace ObamaCare, put yuge punitive tariffs on Chinese imports, etc. None of that happened, and the Alt-Right is conspicuous by their silence. They aren't likely to turn out in big numbers for the mid-terms.

Last I checked, dems are incumbents in something like 25 of the 33 seats up for grabs in the Senate. Several in states won by Trump. I would be surprised if the GOP didn't end up gaining in the senate.

I think you keep making cases for what you wish to happen.
A few questions.Define alt-right? How many alt-right voters are there? Did these mysterious alt-right voters sit out previous elections?
Did you ever hear the phrase "it's the economy, stupid"?

That is why the Democrats are praying this tax bill fails. Not one Democrat is praising these wage hikes or bonuses, that is because they don't want them to happen. The Democrats need the economy to tank by 2020, and they are rooting for it on a daily basis.

Yep.
We have an entire party and public rooting against our country getting wealthier and better.
It is beyond crazy.

Explain what is dumb about a 100% true statement? Even if the group rioting is a bunch of white college students setting trash cans on fire and burning couches in the street celebrating their local sports team winning a championship, who do young white college students typically vote for? Please send me links of Republicans rioting and doing a mass trashing of a town so you can prove how dumb my statement is.
