Despite these concerns I still see the Democrats getting at least 150% of the vote.

Not if the election reform laws stop it.

We're going to have to make some serious changes to voting laws. And we're going to have to be super duper conscious of what's going on. The Democrats have cheated their way into the White House and a Senate majority. They'll cheat again, they can't help themselves.

I didn't realize that watching the United States disintegrate would be so entertaining. We all laugh and postulate over the mid-terms but has anyone thought about how truly desperate the situation might have become by then? It isn't just Biden. The entire administration is focused on nothing less than self enrichment. There is no one at the helm. If this finishes badly we will have gotten off easily.

Yes, the DNC is the biggest money-laundering scam on the planet. Wait until we see who got side checks from the US money that went to Wuhan. That scam went so sideways not event the Wolf could have cleaned that up.

Biden is to blame for the economy. Nobody fully controls the economy but every administration takes decision that can improve the situation or make it worse. Joe Biden made things worse: he extended the lock down without any reason, supported the Teacher Unions to keep the schools closed, wasted tax payer money that backfired economically, issued regulation that shuts down business. All these measures are destructive to the economy and the Biden Administration is to blame for it.

Dems are going to loose their ass. Republicans gained 14% new membership in December and Democrats lost 6%. It's not even about the parties, both hate the working people. The Republicans are at least getting realigned with Populism faster then the Dems. Return of America! Fuck the neo-liberals, and fuck the neo-cons.

Hi Tarl,

Nice analysis again.

The inflation is caused by almost 50 years of US trade deficits.

This is as much a democrat issue as it is republican. The problem is that the economy has been a political argument in the US.

"It's the economy stupid" has been a mantra in US politics for many years, as if it is the presidents job to handle the economy. Unfortunately it really meant that it was the economy of the voters that was in focus. So the politics that was implemented didn't take into account the overall economy of the country.

As long as you live beyond your means you are destined to live beneath it. This is what has happened in the US for a long time. The trade deficit is a reflection of this. Americans has consumed more than they produced and now the consequences are here.

I'd bet if Dems lose House/Senate in midterms Biden will resign not long after handing things off to Harris. This way media can run back-to-back stories about glass ceilings and first female president of color instead of talking about their political losses.

I can't imagine a headline that's positive upon the first female president only occurring because the dude that beat her (in the primaries of course) ends up stepping down halfway through his term because of severe dementia. That's not a good look women as a whole.

Oh well, what the Hell do I know. The combination of lots of stupid people existing and a ministry of truth - whoops, I meant media - willing to bend over backwards and kiss their own asses (somehow believed as trustworthy by said stupid people) can result in just about any falsity gaining traction.

I don't think the media or Democrats care. They are desperate to go down in the history books that the first female POTUS was a Democrat. Normal people will know Harris was appointed not elected but that won't stop the media from going overboard lauding it as a historic achievement. If you think the media slobbers all over Biden now, just wait until Harris takes over! Holy cow the pravda will be transparent & aggressive. They sure don't care about telling the truth now. Since the 2020 election they have even less reason to tell voters truth. But, I'm just guessing, I have no idea what'll happen.

Passing the 19th Amendment was the biggest fucking mistake this country ever made.

Ehh, I don't know. I'm a woman and if you think about it women didn't vote for extremism until third wave feminism & the introduction of white guilt. Now everything has just gone downhill and it's not looking like it will get better. Women seem to be spearheading critical race theory and men who hope to get laid become "allies". I don't think up until around 2000 did the 19th become a problem. At some point they would have amended the Constitution to add it. There was no way it could be the year 2021 and women wouldn't have the right to vote.

"Kim" Campbell is a Canadian served as the 19th prime minister of Canada from June 25 to November 4, 1993. Campbell is the first and only woman to hold the position

The UK had Margaret Thatcher before that and there’s been Theresa May since but we’re talking about the POTUS.

Anyway, Turdeau’s less manly than a lot of women, that beard fools nobody.

Biden would probably resign earlier due to health problems but if not the media would probably want Biden to resign before the midterms so they can go all out on the first female president virtue signaling before the midterms in hopes that their losses won't be too severe

I suspect Biden will step down before midterms, so the Dems/Media can campaign on the First woman prez, will need allies in Congress.

It’s not “early stage” dementia, he’s progressed rapidly past that. I predict that by August he’ll be screaming out disembodied obscenities and throwing random punches at passing strangers.
