2. Trump and the Republicans

By their own actions , under funding going directly to the American people with direct payments , refusing mass testing, forcing people prematurely back to work, and all their lying and policies giving more money to the wealthy will have severe consequences this Nov. for them. This is their political Titanic , and they are going down. A trump depression could soon be a reality. Projections showing huge numbers being driven into poverty soon from Trump and the GOP, and that''s why the lying, the truth will expose what they're doing now, which is failing us all.

I have no doubt that Trump will be defeated in the presidential election, but that isn't enough in today's America. After all, he was defeated in the last election too. He took office anyway.

Mark over McSilly in AZ--I am very confident there.
Gideon over Collins in Maine--I am quite confident there, too
Hockenlooper over Gardner in Colorado--SHOULD be no problem
The others--I see these as very winnable, though so far uphill, fights. The wind is at our back, for sure.

An ex-president certainly CAN get "protection" in jail, but not from the Secret Service, and if he does not pay THOSE bills on time, no lawyer will save him from the consequences while in the joint. Jesús, Leroy, Giuseppe and Billy-Bob do not accept payment on the installment plan, and do not take bad checks, either.

Garland. We have 7 months where we continue to pretend we're a democracy, until republicans maintain the white house and senate in a disputed election.

Trump is toast

McConnell will likely survive, don't draw conclusions from their governor's race. Bevin screwed up massively and repeatedly, and we benefited from it being an off year election and surprise.

Graham is absolutely safe, SC isn't going blue.

Collins is toast

McSally is probably going down

Gardner is toast

Loeffler will probably squeak it out, still a fairly red state and turnout will be strong across the board

Tillis is probably going down

I am pretty sure they will get Secret Service protection in jail.

Let's just hope that the October Surprise is not TP finally being manufactured again and returning to shelves. The wishy washy, whiny, undecided voters will vote for them if they make that happen. We will be stuck with them four more years, maybe forever.

Maybe the Democratic Party should find out a way to beat them to it.
