BWAHAHA! House Republicans' goal for Midterms officially downgraded to "minimizing their losses."

[Miles Archer]

The White House is lowering expectations that Republicans will maintain control of the House in the midterm elections — while positioning President Donald Trump to claim credit for any seats his party gains in the Senate.

White House political director Bill Stepien wrote a three-page memo this week in which he outlined the political landscape confronting the GOP and bluntly warned that the party’s prospects for the House are “challenging.”

“House Republicans’ goal this year is to minimize their losses,” he wrote in the memo, which was distributed to senior administration officials. A copy was obtained by POLITICO.

The warning comes as Republicans try to preserve a 23-seat majority, with dozens of GOP-held seats at risk in the Nov. 6 election. Many Republican officials concede their path to retaining their grip on the speaker’s gavel is narrow and believe they will suffer their greatest losses in suburban areas, where the president has proven to be a drag on GOP candidates.

1. Before we get all giddy...

...remember that, at this time two years ago, Republican leadership was advising GOP candidates to cut their ties with Trump, since he was certain to lose in a landslide, and concentrate on trying to save their congressional majorities. VOTE!!!

4. Seppuku and Harakiri is always considered a noble gesture.

Warning these are actual instructions intended to help Republicans to assist us in cleansing the political landscape.
