Donald Trump's Worst Nightmare May Come In The Form Of Rep. Elijah Cummings
If Democrats retake the majority in November, Cummings will no longer have to rely on Trey Gowdy to call hearings, summon witnesses and subpoena documents. He will have the authority to pursue answers to all of his questions. To call hearings on any topic he sees fit. To depose any administration official he wants to question. There’s no question in my mind that White House chief of staff John Kelly will be the focal point of a hearing about White House security clearance procedures. White House senior adviser Jared Kushner will be asked to explain the questionable intersection of his government job and his business enterprises. Veterans Affairs chief Robert Wilkie will be called to testify about the relationship between officials at the department and members of Trump’s private Mar-a-Lago club.
The Trump administration will be put on trial and the full scope of its corruption will be exposed. Congressional hearings will be covered wall-to-wall on cable news, dominating news cycle after news cycle. Trump, more than any president in history, evaluates his success based on how the media covers the day. A barrage of hearings and subpoenas will have a deteriorating effect on Trump and completely stall the White House’s agenda.

“Right now I think this election looks like a toss-up,” Salvanto said. “We see a Democrat pickup in the House of Representatives in the 20-odd seat range, but Republicans could certainly hold on to the House.” The GOP holds a slim 43-seat House majority, with six vacancies.
“Even though Republicans have not fared well in special elections so far this cycle, it does look like they will be turning out for the midterms,” Salvanto said. “So far we do not see a large number of Republicans saying they will flip and vote for a Democrat.”
GOP voters in the past have been much more likely than Democrats to turn up and cast ballots in midterm elections, regardless of each party’s enthusiasm level ahead of Election Day.
So Democrats are literally betting the House on their ability to capture large numbers of voters who don’t normally vote in midterm elections. “They have to bring new voters in,” Salvanto said.

>3 month long special elections indicate blue wave How about the fact that democrats spent millions of dollars ginning up turnout in 3 month long special elections and still got beat when GOP turnout was way down White boomers vote in midterms, Mexican welfare moms don’t even know what they are You’re going to get your ass caved in by mediocre white turnout

No way the GOP doesn't gain at least two Senate seats. Are they going to lose ALL the states Trump won by 10+ in 2016? Nah.

Even my libshit friends at PI are saying GOP +2 in the Senate (+3 with Arizona)
>They won't. Republicans will turn out. >Dems will close the gap on the house Nope. >and the Senate will stay even. Have you retard seen the Senate map? 55+ Republican seats are pretty likely. >Midterms always shift voter amounts. It isn't a constant. Republicans have a solid midterm voter base. The economy isn't bad. 40 million+ Republican voters is definitely doable.

At this point 55 seats are likelier than 50.
Xavier Wright
ah right voting is tomorrow isn't it i've been a terrible citizen and haven't been paying attention to local florida because i hate this state, so i have no idea about any of it
Gabriel Kelly
Precisely. Why do people here just fucking lie to me. I was told not too long ago that we were building the wall and I got very excited low and behold to see the 'wall' in construction is the same piece of shit that didn't even work before. Its not even one of the walls from the contest either so I guess that was pointless since were 'already building the wall'?
Gavin Wright
Pennsylvania is a longshot, I'd leave it out
Dylan Hughes
You're looking at the wrong numbers. This isn't Trump vs Hillary. It is Republicans vs Dems + anti Trump. Plenty of people voted for their party in 2016 and left the Presidential pick blank, that was mostly for Clinton. That alone might have won Trump the election. Combine that with a midterm shift and I see Dems losing 3 Senate seats and may pick up 3 as well. At worst it is 48-52. What map are you looking at? I've seen Senate staying the same and Dems taking the house.
