      The midterms will be the litmus test. If there’s a strong rebuke of republican rule, look for them to move toward ditching tRump. That’s my prediction.

        How? He’s been their whole brand for a freaking decade. And before him the best they could do was Mitt Romney types that made half of their voting base gag.

        Assuming we have untampered elections, yes. And no I don’t just mean technological tampering, but ICE at polls, denying people last minute, bomb threats, and the like.

        Already, they have redistricted so much I wonder if a Democratic win is even possible.
