I will be posting details on certain races later. The break-up is 33 open seats. The Republicans only have 8 seats up for re-election. The Democrats have 25, with 10 of them in states where President Trump won. If you look at the odds, it would appear that Republicans will easily keep the majority, because the Democrats will have to retain all 25 plus add 3 more (or replace all lost seats with new ones from the Republican 8). Not very likely to happen. In fact, the odds are decent that Republicans will gain at least 8 seats to take 60 in the Senate.

The DNC better do some major fund raising. They only have $4 million on hand. The RNC has $45 million.

DNC has 50 million dollars worth of Social Media Activists and another 50 million dollars worth of offline Voter Registration volunteers.

And a million migrant Puerto Ricans itching to extract revenge on the GOP.

Dems will be just fine. GOP has 4.5 billion dollars for sure from Koch Brothers but they can use all the cash in the Universe, defeat is still guaranteed. Just wait for Bannon to show his true colors, picking Pedophile Roy Moore to allow a Doug Jones victory was just the trailer. The movie is yet to start. One by one Bannon will destroy every existing Republican Senator and Congressman till he reshapes the GOP in the Image the Koch Brothers want.

Obviously you're not well read enough to have learned the KKK was and is a democrat institution and always has been.

But, ignorance is bliss for the leftist loon set.

The Democrats are deep rooted in the KKK:

Are the Democrats in Cahoots with KKK in 2017 or was it their dark past from which they have liberated themselves?
I think ensuring a Black man became President rids them of the bad karma of the past.

Now, why did the opponents of KKK, the Republicans, ally with thew new Avatar of KKK: ALT-RIGHT ?
Or maybe they are not allied and only the Trump Base is allied?

Seriously, when GOP condemns Alt-Right [KKK in New Bottle] and disavows their support, then GOP will be practically unbeatable.

Meanwhile, Latest "information" from Lord of the Alt-Right, Mr Steve Bannon:

1. Trump is like a 11 year old child.

2. Ivanka is a fount of bad advice.

3. Trump has only 30% chance of making it till 2020.

4. Ivanka is the Queen of Leaks.

5. Jared was colluding with Russians.

6. Firing Comey was the DUMBEST Political Decision ever.

7. "What about the allegations about her dad and that 13-year-old?". Bannon to Ivanka.


In coming months, I expect Alt-Right to aggressively destabilize Trump. Pence is circling like a Vulture.

GOP is practically broken into 2. Pro-Bannon and Anti-Bannon.

The Trump base has shifted. It's not just the GOP that is supporting his goals anymore. Grouping them all together as racists and hate groups is incorrect.

Actually, it seems like his base has just got smaller. I don't know anyone who has decided they like him after all.

I've just heard that he said to people at mar a lago, after the tax bill went through, that they'd just got a lot richer, he's gross.

Dear StubbornVirgo,
Randall is one of the most non-Racist Human Beings in the USA right now, so it is obvious that not all Trumpsters are from hate groups.
Randall supports the Economic Agenda outlined by Trump plus has consistently been against the corruption of the Clinton Cabal. Lets just say if Tim Scott and Donald Trump stood for the exact same Economic Agenda, then Randall and many non-Democrat Party voters like him would choose Tim than "Grab em by the Pu**y" Trump, as of today. Though during the Primaries, we all saw a different side of Trump. Had he attacked the FBI like how he is doing right now back then, he would never have succeeded.

Today, there is a clear Constitutional Crisis in America. The most Patriotic Agency is being ripped up, as if by personal surgeons of the KGB. Mueller, Comey et al are Republicans but the White Supremacists are trying to destroy all Institutions that can defend against the Russian Takeover in progress.

White Supremacists [Alt-Right] are loyal to Putin because Putin and Russians are Pure White and are now Christians than Communists.

Plus, once the USA is destabilized from Global Outreach, Putin can rule Asia, Asia Pacific and Europe. Already, both Saudi and Iran are trusting Putin, Erdogan has signed up too. China silently obeys Putin.

Only USA stood firm but Putin, like a top Case Officer has played his American Assets well. Imagine, the GOP is anti-FBI right now. Unthinkable in the Post WW2 America and even Reagan Era.

The CIA is maintaining a very eerie silence as of now, and I can predict many GOP Assassinations if Mueller is prevented in any way from exposing the Russian Money Laundering/bribes to both GOP and Democrats.
Earlier, GOP thought only Podesta and cronies took Russian help but Mueller has seen all the Transition emails. Kushner got a 285 million dollar "bribe" before elections for instance. Nunes is dirty, Ryan is dirty. All have sold to Roubles but this was not known before. Now that it is known, the GOP has gone ballistic.

CIA Black Ops may be wicked but they are wicked due to a warped sense of pro-American Globalist Patriotism. They will never sell out for White Racism and will never bow to Putin.

2018 is "Game of Thrones" Reloaded Year for US Politics, with Global Consequences. Putin is the most Dangerous Man in the World. Only the Compromised proto-Fascists will support him.

The Republicans are only defending one seat where Hillary win. The Dems are defending 10 seats in deep red states, 5 of which went for President Trump in double digits. Trump won in those states on an economic message, and he has delivered. No, the Dems will definitely not take the Senate. In fact, the Republicans will likely pick up several more Senate seats. I'm much less confident about the House. If not for tax reform, I would expect the Dems to take the majority in the House, but once the bill's popularity picks up, I think it will lead to a narrow majority retained by the Republicans in the House.

Especially when people see the results of tax reform. In 1982, Reagan was expected to have a tough time. In 1984, Reagan won by an electoral landslide, winning every single state but MN, which he lost by only 3,000 votes or so. "It's all about the economy, stupid!"

Economy was doing better than Reagan's when Doug Jones flipped the deepest red State ever.

Trump has ****** off every non-White group and the Tax Cut benefits to bulk of the voters are minimal, only the billionaires have gained plenty and they are not investing back into capacity expansion. 1000s of stable jobs have been cut already and it will take a while before Apple and others hoarding cash abroad repatriate and recreate jobs. Possibly 2019-2020. And Trump's personality will not help the under-performing GOP Senators and Congressmen. You should see the Town Hall videos where the GOP elected leader is turning his back to a Black woman voter and insulting her with Arrogance when she is politely wishing to speak to him. This gets serious punishment during voting days.

If Republicans propose Candidates who are pro LGBTQ community, they just might edge out the Dems in the final senate tally.
The so called GOP as "Family Values" Party tag evaporated with the Stormy Daniels scandal, and the Jessica Drake threesome attempt by Trump. And now there is talk of him doing Hope Hicks as well.
Latest nickname for Trump in twitter is Porn Tsar...

Democrats have won a shock victory in Missouri.


Read on please:

=============================================
Democrats win shock victory in Missouri district Trump carried by 28 points
By Matthew Chapman |
FEBRUARY 6, 2018

Mike Revis is the latest Democrat to flip a red seat to blue deep in Trump territory.

Democrats have been walloping Republicans across the country in recent special elections. And if the GOP thought new polls indicated Democrats were losing their competitive streak heading into 2018, they were dead wrong.

On Tuesday night, Missouri held four special elections for state house districts, and Democrats snagged a win few analysts expected them to have a shot at: House District 97.

This seat, in the southwestern suburbs of St. Louis, was vacated by GOP state Rep. John McCaherty, who resigned to run for Jefferson County Executive.

It was never thought to be competitive because Trump carried the district 61 to 33 in 2016. And yet Democrat Mike Revis proved that wrong.

What made the win even more amazing is that Revis ran on an unabashedly progressive platform.

He called on the state to stop “robbing our public schools of public tax dollars to give money to private for-profit” schools and called the state’s anti-union “right-to-work” proposal “a 60-year-old bad idea, pushed by big corporations to lower wages.”

His Republican opponent, David Linton, ran mainly on a right-wing platform opposing abortion and gun laws.

This 31-point Democratic swing is a huge testament to the continued strength and enthusiasm of the resistance.

Missouri voters sent Trump and the GOP a message: The GOP’s hateful agenda has created a whole new electoral map.

===============================================

2018 is the year of the Blue Tsunami.
Hate Politics always fails, even during an economic boom. The only message this year from GOP is "Christian Fundamentalism" and Right to own deadliest of weapons. Epic Fail.
Even Trump is at least trying for a DACA solution, rest of GOP is so ineffective, they are totally lost. Trump may as well contest as an Independent in 2020.

Juni, you should join Twitter for the excellent ground level coverage from Democrats.
And we can all make a difference in 2018.
We can defeat the Russian Bots as a networked team if we keep maximizing the trends of genuine Democrat Success. How do you think Doug Jones won?
Using Twitter, we were able to ensure all Black Voters who were denied access to polling booths were given lifts, area by area.

Every Vote counts from now for the next couple of decades. The nefarious plans of Koch Brothers are just scary beyond belief, they will turn America into one large Prison under Christian Evangelical Prison Wardens if Dems do not win big from 2018. I used to think Rothschilds were the biggest evil but Koch Brothers have taken the lead now.

Blue Wave hits Kentucky now!!!!
Read this:

Linda Belcher won a Kentucky house seat, the 37th seat flipped from red to blue in the last 12 months as compared to 4 seats flipped by GOP.
She won it by 68.45% in the 49th district that Donnie carried by 73% in 2016. Can you believe this record Swing? 40% Swing in a year. 40%.
Its a Tex Avery Cartoon style TNT thrashing of GOP by Dems, in a Scarlet Red District.
GOP = Wile E Coyote from now on. Losing Losing and Losing all the way to 2020 and beyond at this rate of Swing Vote Percentage.

The seat was vacant because of a Republican who committed suicide after being accused of molesting a 17 yr old in 2012. He had also been indicted for attempted arson, and had claimed to have raised a man from the dead. Sounds like a total #QAnon fan who did not have enough Russian bots supporting him....

Doug Jones initiated the Divine 12:12 Blessing for Democrats. And since then it is one major flip after another. Blue Tsunami on the Rise.
As Mueller Indicts the Criminals, Democrats gain in confidence. And Donnie keeps blaming Obama....Obama did this Obama did that. Obama made Putin shudder, that is what Obama did.
The Black Man Attitude Stare with Gangsta Rap Music in the background, that is what gave Putin nightmares until Donnie and Kushner strutted along with their begging bowl for Rubles. Today Putin calls the shots with no sanctions from Trump to hold him back.
Looks like the American Public has had enough of Russian Love from Trump.

Just moments ago, Democrats Phil Spagnuolo and Phil Young were declared the WINNERS in two special elections for Republican-held legislative seats!

Phil Spagnuolo's victory in New Hampshire flips yet another dark-red seat into the Democratic column, this time in a state House district Donald Trump carried by a 12-point, blowout margin in 2016.

In Connecticut, Democrat Phil Young just won his own special election, flipping a state House seat that Republicans have held continuously for more than 40 years.

My take:

The Blue Tsunami is shaping up to be a Real Force, and it is hitting America in November 2018. Never again should USA lose the Inner Humanitarian Light to Violent Fundamentalist Evangelist Hypocrites who heartlessly wreck the Environment, enrich the Billionaires, loot the poor and create Bigotry/Xenophobia. Nazis in any form can never be allowed legitimate political space.

Free Speech is not permitted for those wishing to cut off the tongues of the meek.

Yes, Liberals make glaring errors and economic blunders but their Heart is in the right place.

Hope a Liberal GOP dumps the Religious Right and rises from the ashes to challenge a corruption free Democratic Party based on economic policy than social division. This is best for growth of USA as Leader of the Free World post 2018.

They do. They like moderately high taxes on upper middle class and high taxes on the Rich. This excess is used for Government Funding to stimulate the economy. Other policies are funding of High tech [Internet Boom under Clinton, Social Media Boom under Obama] for Tech Exports, dramatic Tourism Revenue, Cheap Labor from Foreign Immigrants and pushing Americans ahead by focus on Higher Education, creating Global Jobs, cheap imports, cheaper Health Care, Revenue from Environmental Protection than deregulated poisoning etc.

It is not perfect but it has created huge wealth for Americans since 1998. Bill Clinton left behind a Surplus for Dubya. Obama rescued USA from Bankruptcy of Dubya.

Trump is killing Government Revenues, a Democrat will be needed for rescue post 2020.
