Of course, i don't think trump is doing a very good job!
Democrats 225. Only a thin margin I think because Rs outperform polls.
Dems 239 reps 196
Dems and others 54 reps 46

There are lies, damned lies and polls schmolls. They're the fastest route to the poorhouse, buck them!
thank you lapsy, ronald, yhtl.
tim my clueless guess isnt based on polls, rather the belief that the disastrous war and blatant corruption of the trump regime will get the republicans a good kicking.
these prediction threads are just a bit of harmless fun, feel free to post your prediction.

It's really hard to call, there's been some redistricting(gerrymandering) that potentially could really backfire on the GOP as the latino vote alliegence might not be so loyal to GOP after ICE and the internment (without trial) camps.

sorry ronald, i felt the need to explain my reasoning to tim.
it is house of representatives only for the purposes of the thread but people are free to add their senate predictions if they want.
thank you escapee and blank.
it is always noticeable when i do one of these threads that the people with the strongest views dont take part, it is as if their egos are extremely fragile and they couldnt cope with not doing very well. it is just a bit of harmless fun, hopefully we will get a few more entrants.

The Democrat sweep has only knocked $5 Trillion off the stock market. Not too bad, I thought it would be a lot more than that.
$Billionaires with huge $vested interests in the result don't get the best result for themselves, stock market goes down.
Cry me a river.

I wonder what Kamala would have done if she was president? Save the midterms or save the world from nuclear armageddon? I think we all know which she would have chosen.
