Republicans Are Now At Risk Of Losing The Senate As They Get Crushed By Impeachment

[ffr]

It is still likely that Republicans will maintain control of the U.S. Senate after the 2020 elections, but impeachment is giving Democrats a big window of opportunity that could grow as the inquiry rages on.

They’re worried, Chris, and they’re also tired. There’s Trump fatigue all over the country and that includes the House Republican conference and the Senate Republican conference. That’s why you see, in part, some Republicans walking away, choosing not to run for re-election. Some of them think that it’s going to be difficult to get re-elected, others are just tired of having to defend Donald Trump, of having to answer for all of his conduct. - PoliticusUSA

That would be terrible news for Moscow Mitch and Leningrad Lindsey.

4. Each day trump remains in office they'll lose votes, and

Seats in Congress , as more comes out daily showing their corruption , and criminal acts obstructing, and covering up , a a lot more. They are on a spiral downwards as long as trump and Pence are in office.

5. THIS must be our goal - the Senate must turn blue

Even if (gulp!) Chump should win another term, we must take back the Senate next year. With both the Senate and House firmly blue, all this sickness will end quickly.

8. We need the WH as well.

Even if we held both houses, we wouldn't have a veto-proof majority. We need all three.

6. Just makes me nervous that Putin has something up his sleeve

These guys have acted pretty cavalier about what they say and do, as if the lies and obfuscations will not result in a loss of power. I have to remember, we're not up against Republicans, we're up against their handlers. They've already stolen an election and reconstituted our government with Trump/Putin lackies. Are the mechanics of the Constitution sufficient to ward off this kind of subversive intrusion into our government?

7. The terrible news for me is that I expect the reTHUGS to double down on their ratfuckery since

that's the only thing they have working for them these days. If We The People can't at least turn the reTHUGS into a minority party now then we never will. To the barricades! We can do it if we get down to it!
