Astonishing change in House map. NBC/Cook add 18 more Republican seats to "competitive" list


That is a historical record of vulnerable seats 90 Republican 13 Democrats

More Republican districts may be added.

Alaska and Montana with their single seat Congressional district.

Don't have a link, on MTP.

They listed a single Democratic seat in Minn that looked like it was moving from safe to contested.

They also said that Republicans were pulling all of their ads outside of the Detroit area.

The GOP knows the House is likely going to be in Democratic hands. The Senate is the GOP's impeachment firewall.

Trump could murder a baby on stage at a rally and not be impeached.

Murdering or caging babies, particularly babies of color, will not affect Trump's GOP support.
