Republicans Are Freaking Out As Democrats Look Like They’ll Retake The House In November
Показать описание
The Democrats aren’t just poised to retain control of The White House at this point, they are now looking like they could also flip the House of Representatives back into their control. And in case you needed to be told, this is causing a bit of panic among Republicans. Not only are their grand electoral plans slipping away from them, but they could end up losing the little bit of power that they currently hold in D.C. if things continue the way that they are. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

It's not just the White House that Republicans are in danger of possibly losing this year. According to new reports. And based on the fears of sitting Republican lawmakers, Republicans are now afraid that they're also gonna lose the House. Now, the House of Representatives, as we all know, is the only body that Republicans control nationally, other than of course, the Supreme Court. But in terms of elected bodies, all they've got is the house. And they already have a very razor thin margin in that house that over the last year and a half has actually even gotten smaller for them. So things are looking bad for Republicans in the house just based on what was already happening even before every poll shifted in the Democrat's favor. So Republicans are starting to panic, but Democrats obviously having the exact opposite reaction. Rep, uh, democratic representative, excuse me, Dan Kde of Michigan said this, uh, he said that they've seen a huge uptick with volunteers and small dollar donors.
No question about it. It elevates a lot of our races. It may broaden the map. Look, we've still got finish it, but just looking at volunteers and small dollar donors, these are two variables that matter. We know they are so pretty remarkable. And yes, other reports have confirmed that volunteers for Democratic campaigns, including house campaigns across the country, have skyrocketed in recent weeks. People are energized now that Harris is at the top of the ticket. They want to be involved. Whereas when Biden was the nominee, you may not want to hear it, but it's the truth. People stopped caring. They were not energetic, they were not enthusiastic about it. But that has shifted. Polls have shown that the enthusiasm has shifted dramatically in favor of the Democratic Party right now. It's not just Kilti outgoing, uh, representative Ann Kuster said this, the path we were on was unsustainable To be earnest, I thought we were going to lose 20 plus seats and lose the Senate and lose the White House.
But I'm seeing polling all over the country every day and we're flipping, flipping five plus points in all these districts. She said. So she admits it too, like, yeah, a month and a half ago we were gonna lose everything. We were definitely not gonna regain control of the house. We were gonna lose control of the Senate and we were gonna lose control of the White House. Right now, it's not necessarily looking that way. Now, I don't wanna give people any kind of false sense of optimism or make you think that everything is hunky dory and you've got nothing to worry about. This is a fight, and it will continue to be a fight until the polls close on election day,
We could still lose everything. We could lose the House, the Senate, and the White House this year. That is a possibility. There's a good chance that it happens too. Not a great chance, thank God, but a good chance. Nevertheless, we know for a fact we're already losing one Senate seat. Joe Manchin ain't gonna win this year, and as much as he's not even really a Democrat, he, he still won't be there. Republicans are gonna have that seat. It will go to somebody worse if you can imagine that. But we could pick up somewhere else. You know, we know that Carrie Lake is probably not gonna win her election. So we keep that seat, but we have to focus in other areas as well. The Senate is gonna be the tougher fight, the presidency right now, Harris is enjoying this massive surge that is still going on, which of course is why I say that I don't buy into the whole Harris honeymo
