Spell it out for us. I asked Deschutes but he won't answer the question.

What are the Dems in congress going to do to make anyone's lives better?

---

Just a quick look at Adam Hamilton's website provided the following:

• Require competitive bidding for electricity transmission projects
• Ending the Trump Tariffs that are being paid for by Americans
• Standardizing regulations for modular homes to help reduce their costs
• Truth in pricing rules, the price advertised for an item should be the price you pay (refers to "junk fees" tacked on at checkout)
• Strengthening the dept of Labor enforcement ability so they can combat wage theft (unpaid wages, stolen tips, etc.)

Those are all pretty specific things that would make a lot of people's lives better

---

This is meaningless stuff mentioned by someone I've never even heard of.

Hakeem, who will be House Speaker, is saying right now what their focus is going to be: impeaching Trump, investigating Republicans, and restoring the few spending cuts that Trump made.

So, Democrat version of bread and circuses is what we are going to get. Double down on deficit and debt.

I put the over/under on Trump impeachments at 6.

🚨Total Democratic Midterm Panic:

Based on the currently available data, mail-in ballot requests across the country – which generally favor Democrats at a rate of 2:1 – are down by about 25% compared with this point in the 2018 and 2022 midterms, sending Democrats into a total…

The Dems might own the media narrative, but all along I've questioned whether their base would be motivated to show up in a non-Presidential cycle.

You can never assume anything, go vote and leave nothing to chance.

But if the Dems end up shell shocked on election night I won't be the least bit surprised. They are leaderless right now.

And make no mistake, not making significant gains as as the minority party in a mid-term is a MASSIVE failure. It is expected for the incumbent party to lose seats.

If they are fortunate enough to win the House, they are going to waste the next 2 years with TDS and hurt their chances in 2028 by accomplishing nothing and wasting people's time.

Couldn't agree more. It'll just be more of the same that they did in his first administration.

As for hurting their chances, though, unless the economy is humming and Iran has been a memory for a couple of years, even with their chances being hurt, they'll still be in good position to win it all in '28. And if nothing is better and JD is the nominee, they will start measuring the curtains that day he wins the nomination.

Impeachment season is upon us.

Quote:

---

Democratic congressional candidates have made corruption a key theme ahead of the midterms, accusing Trump and his allies of enriching themselves while in office and issuing payments in exchange for pardons.

"These are all things that are going to need to be thoroughly investigated as part of our pledge to hold the crooks accountable beginning on day one," he [Hakeem Jefferies] said, noting that Rep. Jamie Raskin (D., Md.), the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Robert Garcia (D., Calif.), the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, have been leading those efforts.

Raskin and Garcia, Jeffries said, "have been doing a great job to date, and they're just getting started."

This would chair the House Appropriations Committee. Think she'd like to redirect Trump's budget to LGBTQKSOLETSMNVEI+ stuff

This is a longer term issue for sure but that is what voters seem to want.

Survey after survey shows voters hoping the Dems can lockdown the current GOP congress and Admin and stop them from screwing things up even more. That is not a Reagan/FDR types of movement mandate.

They have to figure something beyond "Trump and the GOP Congress are bunch of idiots."

They have already started measuring the curtains because it's what they do every time they're out of power. But if they nominate another Harris or AOC type in 2028, they will make Vance look like the most reasonable moderate that has run in years.

And no one will care. If anything, it will show why Trump ruling strictly through the Executive the is the way to go.

What the Dems think will be a check on Trump will only serve to strengthen him.

But they won't, because they are leaderless and have no ideas other than opposing Trump and sugar-coating socialist ideas.

They might convince enough voters to reject the incumbent right now because of the economy, but they don't have a plan and they aren't all of a sudden going to have an organized plan.

But right now Republicans are running on, "Give us two more years to maybe fix all the **** we broke after having control of all 3 branches of government".

I'm sure they're going to roll out the massive successful plan to make healthcare more affordable very soon. They just wanted to wait 6 years to makes sure it was perfect.

Mamdani out again today doing his best to show the clear path of the Dems forward.

Hatred of Jews and defund the police. Bold strategy Cotton.

Voting D, be it Freako (currently in hiding) or Hamilton in KY, they are marxists, antisemitic Hate Americans at heart.

Call them out and treat them as the traitors they are. Completely un-American. Full of ignorance and hate.

Those other things are the destroy America as we know it and anti-Constitution changes that DSA wants that the mainline Democrats are going to lean into which they are scared to even discuss. In the meantime, Dem leadership is telling us right now that they are focused on what I already shared - impeachments, hearings, and increased spending. Straight from the horses mouth.

And I won't excuse the Republicans either. Controlled opposition cowards for the Democrats is name of the game for them. They are less worse than the Democrats which is the only reason to vote for them in the general election especially now that DSA is trying to skin suit the Democrats.

What a story. And it is just the tip of the DC beltway corruption iceberg. Every state capitol has it too on a smaller dollar scale.

What a cesspool of corrupt grifters and degenerates with greased palm bribes and insider deals. That statement applies to both parties.

Anyone who is still naive enough and clueless enough to believe the Trump family went to DC to clean up the Deep State needs their head examined.

Correct. My post even specifically said both parties do it. Your party's voters were naive enough to think Trump would fix it. Some of them still believe it and post it. Yet all he and his fellow Rs have done is expand the DC corruption, bribery, and grift by tenfold.

Your party's voters were naive enough to believe Obama would bring positive change and Biden would bring a sound mind with honestly and integrity…and still can't understand why people kept electing Trump.

This thread is about the midterms, not Obama. The first two years of Trump's second term have been a dismal record of failure and rampant corruption and destructive economic policies. His numerous failures and his coverup of the Epstein files, which 98% of the GOP Congress supported, are a massive part of the midterm elections.

Trump isn't on the ballot for the mid terms either. We are still feeling the effects of the horrible Biden policies you foolishly voted for so it's all relevant. Safe space denied.

You are blindly ignoring what the justice department has been doing over the last year. It will take years to clean out the swamp, but the dismantling of USAID and now going after all these fraudsters that's a big ****ing step and going after the swamp! good Lord, some people are so ignorant.
