2023 election recap: Virginia Democrats block GOP trifecta and takeaways from Hampton Roads
Virginia Democrats who campaigned on protecting abortion rights swept Tuesday’s legislative elections, retaking full control of the General Assembly after two years of divided power.
The outcome is a sharp loss for Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who exerted a great deal of energy, money and political capital on an effort to secure a GOP trifecta.

There is no bigger issue on the plate than Trump’s plans. He has totalitarian designs for mass political trials. The press and his political opponents, including Joe Biden, should escalate their criticism of him pronto to make it the leading political issue. Biden can’t pretend to be an advocate of constitutional self-governance unless he presses Trump hard here.
Trump, ever the master of evasion, can’t be allowed to fudge who he intends to prosecute nor should we allow him to make such threats without describing in detail what crimes he thinks have been committed and what evidence exists. The same questions should be directed at Trump supporters and his donors. Trump, after all, has put them on notice, too, with his plans. They are as complicit in the plot to throttle our civil liberties as Trump is.
Trump claims that his current promises of prosecution are a matter of payback. Prosecutors in Georgia and New York and in the federal government prosecuted him for what he considers political reasons, so he thinks that frees him to return the favor to his foes. But the Trump equation doesn’t balance. Remember, it was his style to call for the jailing of his foes long before any indictment landed on his doorstep. Also, Trump’s alleged crimes have been named, delineated with supporting evidence, and accepted for trial by an independent judiciary. Any counter-claim by Trump, such as the recent one where he insisted he’s an American Nelson Mandela is a complete fantasy.
Again, we’ve been warned. Trump doesn’t just want to be president. He wants to be prosecutor, judge, jury and jailer, too. Why doesn’t he just come clean and announce his campaign for dictator?

'Nothing's going to get fixed': Right-winger despairs as Trump crushes GOP election hopes
Conservative Erick Erickson found himself in a seeming state of despair on Wednesday after watching the Republican Party suffer a new round of stinging defeats in off-year elections, which are coming despite the fact that President Joe Biden suffers from continuously dismal approval ratings.
Writing on Twitter, Erickson pinned the party's biggest problem as its total reliance on Trump as its political champion despite the fact that the GOP lost the 2018 midterm elections and the 2020 presidential election, while also suffering from a massively disappointing 2022 midterm election that saw Republicans retake the House of Representatives by a very slim margin.

They were meaningless, Ted. The only people surprised at how yesterday turned out are idiots on either side.

I don't want to hear a single word out of you about the off-year elections tomorrow. They are not indicative at all of next November's election when everybody goes out and votes, and Dems are probably going to win most of them because Republicans are staying home because most of them don't give a shit about abortion either way and the college "educated" abortion-loving cat lady Libtards are out ballot harvesting as we speak.
I knew that's exactly how yesterday's elections were going to turn out.
Because I'm not an idiot.
Once again I was right. Imagine that, huh?

To Defeat Anti-Abortion “Moderation”, Mobilize Fear
Republicans won’t stop at a 15-week ban.
By Judith Levine | November 9, 2023, 3:55 p.m.
https://theintercept.com/2023/11/09/anti-abortion-republicans-15-weeks/
Since the Supreme Court demolished the right to abortion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization last June, the GOP has been trying to douse the fury of reproductive justice defenders and dam the torrent of their victories at the polls.
They’ve been failing.
At first, they banked their hopes on changing the subject, from the pesky question of women’s existential equality to the rising prices of gas and groceries. That hopey-changey stuff did not work out for them in the 2022 midterms. After that, Republicans turned to election interference, trying to subvert reproductive freedom initiatives by making it harder to amend state constitutions. In both Ohio and Arkansas, that tactic lost big.
Where they couldn’t stand in the way of steamrolling support for a pro-abortion measure, they returned to a time-honored tactic: lying — replacing the texts of proposed constitutional amendments on the ballots with their own, baldly inaccurate summaries. The ruse didn’t stop Ohio voters from enshrining abortion rights in their constitution by healthy margins this week. Missouri’s attorney general is trying the same trick in anticipation of a 2024 initiative. But advocates are fighting back, and he looks weak.
So, after 18 months of watching its take-no-prisoners politics repudiated at the polls, the anti-abortion movement has adopted a new look: “moderation.” The centerpiece of this strategy is a “limit” on terminations after 15 weeks’ gestation, which proponents describe as “reasonable” and “commonsense.”
The first test of anti-abortion neo-moderation was in Virginia this week. Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin campaigned hard for his party members, leading his pitch with a “15-week bill.” His star candidate — and perhaps the most persuasive propagandist of this approach, after presidential contender Nikki Haley — was three-term state Sen. Siobhan Dunnavant. “Abortion should remain legal up to 15 weeks. After 15 weeks there should be reasonable exceptions, for rape, incest, life of the mother, and severe fetal anomalies,” said the OB-GYN and mom in a campaign ad. Claiming (falsely) that her state “allows for abortion up to the moment of birth,” she called current policy “unnecessary, extreme, and heartbreaking.” The Washington Post characterized Dunnavant’s approach as “a nuanced stance on a polarizing topic.” But, it turned out, not a convincing one.
Youngkin’s goal was to flip the Democrat-controlled Senate and, with an all-red statehouse, pass a conservative agenda that would set him up as Donald Trump’s 2028 heir apparent. Instead, the lower house flipped blue, and the Dems held the Senate — thanks, in part, to Dunnavant’s loss. In a term-limited seat, Youngkin is a lame duck. And neo-moderation took a hit.
Despite the setback in Virginia, the GOP is unlikely to ditch this strategy. National-level candidates are adopting it, following the lead of the influential Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, whose president, Marjorie Dannenfelser, has vowed that SBA will “oppose any presidential candidate who refuses to embrace at a minimum a 15-week national standard to stop painful late-term abortions while allowing states to enact further protections.”
In the second Republican presidential primary debate, in September, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis endorsed the 15-week federal limit. In the third, on November 8, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott did too. Haley has said she’d sign one but has also hedged, citing the unlikelihood of such a bill getting through Congress. In the debate she espoused, as usual, “consensus.” The next day, one New York Times commentator called her “sensible and realistic on abortion.” Another thought Haley’s stance would “connect with both primary and swing voters.”
Of course, not everyone in the movement is on board. Abortion abolitionists such as Students f

Yeah, Trump.
Outright say that you personally will enshrine the rights of sluts to murder babies into law.
The country is going down the shit tubes. There's no reason to risk 4 more years of what we've collectively been going through to appease some bible bouncer idiots.
Let's cut this one off immediately before it gains any more traction. It's the ONLY issue in 2023 that the Democratic Party has going for it.

President Biden Takes Questions From Reporters: I Don't Believe I'm Behind Trump In Polls

Really Joe*?
That's not surprising. You also believe that the economy is doing great, that crime isn't a problem in this country and that the border is secure.
The reality is, you are behind Trump in the polls.
All of them.

Whether you approve or not of Biden when asked in a phone call is not the same as whether you will vote for nutty Trump. And Trump is nuts:
The Time Trump Told Boy Scouts About Sexy Yacht Parties
President Trump’s remarks at the 2017 National Scout Jamboree will be etched in my memory for all eternity a) because I spent hours transcribing them for this publication and b) because they were weird as hell. Now this seems a bit quaint, but at the time few suspected that a presidential address to the roughly 40,000 people gathered in West Virginia to spend “10 days hiking, biking, camping and giving back to local communities” might go awry. After all, eight former presidents had addressed the event without incident. Thus, when President Trump regaled the youngsters with a 35-minute tirade about the “dishonest people” who doubted he could win in 2016, his tax repatriation plan, and why our nation’s capital is a “cesspool,” I found myself furiously typing throughout the night, rewinding the CSPAN footage again and again, so I could capture the most inappropriate moments.

But if you are as crazy as Trump is, you won't find anything he says, does, or even plans to do as sufficiently crazy to disqualify him to be President.
To learn Trump's plans after being reelected, please google 'Does Trump plan to be a dictator?' You will be pleased to know that Trump will never leave office ever again.

I read a lot of Lefty shit. I refuse to read apologists at 538. No thanks.
Fact is your braindead idiot actually believes that he's not behind in the polls.
Whether it is because his memory is gone or he doesn't know how to read is anyone's guess at this point.
