The REAL Reason That The GOP Is Boned In November

You know, when not only former RNC Chair Michael Steele, but also James Carville, David Plouffe, and former FL GOP House member David Jolly all say that Traitor Tot is running, by far the worst presidential campaign in modern American history, you kind of have to just nod and say OK.

By now I’ve already covered the subjects of both coattails, as well as reverse coattails, so you’re all up to date. But since as I wrote earlier, the 2024 down ballot Democrats had no trouble separating themselves from an unpopular President Biden, then earnest GOP incumbents should be able to separate themselves as well.

Bull. And it was the former GOP FL representative David Jolly that brought it all into clear focus on MSNBC tonight. Jolly said that the last time he was on a ballot as an incumbent, it was in 2016 when Trump ran for President. And he was hamstrung by the fact that Traitor Tot left him nothing of substance to talk to his constituents about. He went down.

That was back in 2016, when Trumpism was in its infancy. There were still issues to discuss, but His Lowness overshadowed all of that. And still Jolly got Wookie stomped. But that was then, and this is now.

And in the now of 2024, the vast majority of the country is sick of the same old political bullsh*t. They want to talk about issues, and aspiration, and solutions, and not Thunderdome. And the Democrats are ready and loaded for bear with issues and solutions.

But the situation is even worse for the down ballot GOP, including state legislative races than it was for Jolly in 2016. After all,when Jolly lost his bid, Trumpism was in its infancy. And now it’s gone full blown MAGA.

For the last eight years now, the official GOP mantra to every question or issue has been, Yeah, whatever he says. Remember, at the 2020 GOP National Convention, the official platform of the GOP was Whatever Trump says. 

And that’s why the GOP is in deep sh*t today. Not just the GOP House and Senate, but the down ballot state legislatures as well. Because for the last eight years, like the sycophants in the movie The Mummy, these brainless twits have just shambled around intoning Imhotep. Imhotep. Imhotep. And now it’s about to come around and bite them on the ass.

Remember the Blue Tsunami of 2018? I sure do. When ranks of everyday Americans gave up their day jobs to run for the House and make a difference Remember how they only took small money donations, and went into grocery stores, banks and Starbucks to actually talk to their constituents? And all the fat, happy, big money donor GOP incumbents could find to say was, Imhotep. Imhotep. Imhotep. It was a blowout.

And that’s the hidden figures to watch for this November on election night. The US House results are one thing, but look deeper. This is the second cycle since the SCOTUS overturned Roe v Wade, and a potentially whopping 13 states have pro choice initiatives on the ballot. And for many of these state voters, this will be the first opportunity they’ll have for payback for the *ssholes that saddled them with these dracnian laws in the first place,

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. These mental midgets have cruised along for eight years now without having to have a thought in their empty heads. But like the GOP slugs in 2017, who hadn’t had an actual opponent in years, they forgot how to campaign. Not only is that true in the state legislative races, but even more so in the US House races, where for the first time in years, swing state representatives will be facing pointed questions from actual voters, and not just opponents. Whatever you do, don’t touch that dial.

I thank you for the privilege of your time.
