Democrats Aim To Build On Historic 2018 Win, Overcome GOP Skewing | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

The difference is that in the Nixon era republicans in congress took their oath of office seriously once the "smoking gun" was exposed. Now its all about protecting themselves from Cult tRump...and its going to come back to haunt them BIGLY.

[ernestwilson]

The woman in Congress will save our democracy and will make America great again.

[doclewis]

Gerrymandering should be made illegal. There are plenty of apolitical people who can draw districts fairly and evenly and permanently. There's no reason to allow any political party (any party) to draw their own districts. That's one of the crazy things about our republic that's trying to be democratic. Maybe we should become a real democracy. Toss out the antiquated "electoral-college" too.

[DrejaAndi]

Even with a smoking gun, I don't have confidence that today's Republicans will vote to impeach Trump.

[unbotheredmovement]

Excellent reporting! Covering all angles from historic moments to future political strategy.👏💞

[juanderfulm]

Thanks Rachel Maddow for always giving the historical reference to the current, and why both are important to understanding the political context.

[mvvpro]

Democrats should thank Trump for showing them exactly what NOT to be like to appeal to voters with a brain.

[jacobwhite]

Ok but aren’t there 17 smoking guns at this point? What else do we need for Republicans to “get it”

[sayansingha]

[NiijiBorn]

How can anyone think that dump will tell the truth when he's been lying for so long.. it's not hard to see dumpster life is a lie..

[haroldfitzpatrick]

Apropos of nothing and everything: there should be a law that anyone who is a State Secretary of State, (and thus they certify elections) must wait two years after leaving that Job before they can run for another Elected office. That way we wont have the spectre of a state sec. of state certifying their own election anymore.

[isocryd]

Not to mention that the republican senate members are actively shutting down democratic senate members' efforts.

[markbrunette]

I hope someone teaches them everything especially ethics!

[maximilian_]

I'd call it a great video. Pretty nice overview over Midterms and the real clear blue wave.
Thank you all from MSNBC.
Merry Christmas./Happy Holidays.

[DeeDee-yzku]

Shouldn't the blue wave show, trump & gop that the US does not want the wall, or the debt.

[TheHilairetube]

devin nunes is the david dennis our time!

[ericwood]

The holidays won't truly be happy until Trump is behind bars. For life.

[jamesd.wheeler]

"It's like the tide goes out, and suddenly you get to see who's been swimming naked." Perfect.

[samiaint]

It was the nightmare before Christmas and all through the house. Not a creature was stirring not even Deven Nunes bringing investigation documents to the White House. Indictments were hung by the fireplace with care . In hopes that Bob Mueller soon would be there. (add more verses) I'm going to bed.
