Sorry to hear that you failed statistics.The number of people turning 18 exceeds the number of people who have died by about a 2-1 margin. Moreover, these young people have been indoctrinated by government schools into thinking dependency on government is a good thing. In addition, in 2022 the President was a Democrat and there are swing votes who tend to like Congress and the President being of different parties. The Democrats also did well finding candidates who can win in Republican areas while also facing weak Republicans. Texas, Mississippi, and South Carolina should all have gone Republican for the Senate had they fielded a different candidate. It would have been close, but Senator Cornyn would have beat “Low T.” In South Carolina, Darline Graham proved particularly clueless about the job she was seeking which is why she lost to someone who has taken positions that are not in the mainstream of where South Carolinians are. It did not help that the person she beat in the primary was really popular in an area of the state that even if he performed half as well as Trump did in 2024 he is winning decisively. In Mississippi, the find another protein gaffe doomed her candidacy. This then impacted down ballot races because Republicans became synonymous with the bad candidates in these states rather than down ballot candidates running that the Republican Party is more than Trump even as Trump is consistently saying “vote as if I am on the ticket.” It is not all sunshine and roses for the Democrats. If they spend two years as a vendetta against Trump or go full on DSA, even though all of the DSA endorsed Senate candidates underperformed what the trend was nationally, there will be a backlash in 2028. |
