Democrats have been very disappointed with the results of the last 4 "special elections". The last one in Georgia left a bitter taste. But Republicans should not be too quick to celebrate.
Donald Trump has been President for 5 months and a few days and the Republican Party lost ground in each of the four special elections. Although they won all four races, they were much closer than in their previous four elections? What does that mean?
Trump and his Republican Party have a solid base near 40%. However, judging from the numbers in the last 4 races, many Republicans did not turn out to vote? Each candidate received a smaller percentage of votes than in previous races of the last twenty years or more.
If that is a trend, Trump and his Republican Party stand to lose even more Republican voters from their cause. They have been sell-outs to the insurance companies and big banks. They have done nothing to help the common man.
Nothing.
Zilch...

This is my hope.

I think we should be mobilizing our people. There are more of us than them. It's a waste of time to spend time, money or mental energy on people caught up in a cult/tribal frenzy.

I hope there won't be some damn "event" before the midterms that right-wing, fear-mongering propagandists can use to make liberals look bad.
