You are clearly not American.

The midterm elections were won on policy. The vast majority of candidates didn't even acknowledge the president.

Republicans ran on pro-Trump campaigns and got their behinds handed to them.

Every bit of the 2020 campaign is turnout. Dems do not turn out for policy wonk/technocrats only. There must be a charisma... an intangible "it" to counter the reality TV host with the unshakable, but static, audience.

I've said it before but my advice is to virtually ignore the POTUS. Inspire the 60% of the voters in the country that either cannot stand him or are indifferent to him to show up at the polls and vote FOR the Dem candidate. We cannot have a repeat of a campaign that focuses on the flaws of the POTUS.

Not suggesting or endorsing here but the campaign of O'Rourke in Texas was instructive (or should be). Ted Cruz is more popular in Texas than Donald Trump. Beto O'Rourke was known by exactly nobody in this state when he announced his candidacy. Absent serious policy proposals but possessing a work ethic unseen in retail politics in this state for decades and an undeniable charm he turned a +12% at minimum red state to an election loss by less than 3%.

It has scared the bejeezus out of Texas Republicans and I have a hard time believing such a candidate as the one I describe would not flip Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Iowa and quite possibly Ohio, Florida and Arizona.

All of this idealism is well and good.

But I gotta be honest. Nothing woke me up more than having this imbecile as our POTUS. I'm certainly in the camp that I couldn't care less who wins the nomination, but it's gotta be vote this clown out of office. And I think there are a lot of people that hate this guy so much we will see turnout.

There’s a reason Trump has taken a bunch of shots at O’Rourke. He’s not really my ideal choice, but he’d have a very good chance to carry Texas, which likely no other Dem candidate would.

And if Trump loses Texas, he’s proper ****ed.
 
Why are the Democrats almost suicidal over hearing the president hasn't worked with the Russians to interfere in elections. Surely they should be partying with the good news. Why would they want this to be a thing that happened? Hmmmm.

Probably due to the millions and millions of dollars they threw at the enquiry. What a gang of losers! ;)

Do you honestly think that's what's going on?

The only 'news' thus far is a partisan summary.

Didn't the House vote 402-0 or something to release the report?

Yep but McConnel isn’t even putting a non binding resolution with no time frame to the floor.

Obviously there would have to be some redactions to protect sources/methods or that cover any ongoing investigations (waves to SDNY) but you’t think we would get to see most of it like we did with Kem Starr’s report.
 
has Trump been a better or worse president than expected ??

lots and lots of mud has been thrown including this Russian interference stuff but nothing has stuck.

the majority of you in here are voiciferously anti-Trump..

has he not done any good whatsoever and how will his reign been seen over the years
