What kind of changes could you expect from a Red Wave?
Election Day rout would force big changes on Democrats
Democrats will call for big changes in their party if they lose control of Congress next month, which looks increasingly likely as polls show voters are worried about the economy and trust Republicans more than Democrats to handle inflation.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is expected to retire if Democrats lose control of the House, which political handicappers say is very likely.
If Democrats lose big, it will ramp up pressure on House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) to step down as well, say Democratic lawmakers and aides.
Many rank-and-file House Democrats view the top three leaders as “a package deal,” in the words of one Democratic lawmaker who requested anonymity.
Would that happen? Possibly. But, what would getting rid of the old guard mean after getting blown out?
If Republicans pick up 30 or more House seats and win control of the Senate by a comfortable margin, it will also fuel Democratic calls for President Biden not to run for reelection, according to political analysts and activists.
How about reconsidering their destructive left wing agenda?
“You may see a replica of what occurred in the Republican Party after the 2012 election with the so-called inquest. That would be kind of a deep dive into the reasons why the party suffered so badly and probably a cause for generational change, which will certainly redound to the detriment of President Biden running again,” Baker said.
What conclusions would an inquest draw? That they should moderate, or go even further towards the AOC/Tlaib/super leftist side?
Some Democratic strategists say the party needs to better address the hot-button issues of crime and illegal immigration, which Republican candidates have used to bludgeon their Democratic opponents this year.
“It’s more than the economy,” said Jim Kessler, executive vice president for policy at Third Way, a centrist Democratic think tank, and a former adviser to Schumer.
“I do think if we have a bad Election Day, we need to look at [how] voters view us on crime and immigration, first and foremost,” he added. “This is a place where Democrats had self-inflicted wounds. Defund the police, abolish ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement], that is a minority view among Democrats, but it was allowed to stay out there and fester.”
I think we all know how this will turn out: the more moderate, non-wackadoodle strategist, like a James Carville, will be blown off the hardcore wackjobs will take over and start pushing things even further out, wanting even more big government, more spending, more soft on crime, more transgender insanity, more screwing with the children, etc and so on. They’d triple down. It’s who they are.
HAHAHA. No. Only that they should change their narrative and lie about their agenda better. Too many people get way too wealthy from the way things are to think they can change.
They are done for and I can’t wait!
