dems got hammered there. and those apathy/turnout woes followed into the prez election.

2018/2019 has been a nightmare for trump/gop and getting worse (especially the acceleration in the suburbs).

election results (on a macro level) dont come out of nowhere. theyre results of stable shifts/trends.

any other candidate in trumps shoes...with the election results and polling numbers during his term...would be getting their last rites read to them by the political press.

im actually happy that the media (and a lot of dems frankly) think trump has a great shot at winning in 2020 instead of viewing him as the weakest incumbent since carter. complacency kills while fear/anger motivate.
