2018 US Senate Election- if there is a special election in AZ(McCain-R) and MS(Cochran-R).

Republican Victories are going to be limited to
MS(Wicker-R),NE(Fischer-R),UT(Romney-R),and WY(Barrasso-R).
Democrats will hold onto every vulnerable Democratic held US Senate seat up in 2018 and pick up
AZ(Sinema-D)
AZ(Kelly-D)
MS(Presley-D)
NV(Rosen-D)
TN(Bredesen-D)
TX(O'Rourke-D)
55D US Senators in 2019.

January 21, 2018

Chuck Schumer for Majority Leader in 2018 and President in 2020.

Let's give the Republicans their wish!

Too all of those ignorant and arrogant Republican politicians and pundits that are blaming 9 Democratic US Senators for not voting for the Trump budget. 5 Democrats voted to end the filibuster last night.
Jones-AL
Manchin-WV
Donnelly-IN
McCaskill-MO
Heitkamp-ND
All 5 of those Democratic US Senators deserve a Thank You from the Orange Osshole in the White House.
5 Republican US Senators voted against cloture last night.
Flake-AZ
The Turtle-KY
Paul-KY
Graham-SC
Lee-SC.
McCain-AZ was unable to vote.
Had all 5 of those Republicans voted the other way.
The Republicans will need 5 additional Democratic US Senators.
1)They could have offer Menendez(D-NJ) a plea deal. Vote for the Trump Budget deal and Sessions will not retry him.
2)Tester-MT
3)Bennet-CO
4)Nelson-FL
5)King-ME.

Every Democratic members of Congress should boycott every single Trump's State of the Union Address.

Donald Trump and every single of his political advisors and supporters should be treated like crap not with respect.
We need 67 US Senators to remove Trump from office.

Democrats guide to 67 seats is going to be in the 2022 US Senate Election cycle.
2018-Democrats need to hold onto every Democratic held US Senate seat up in 2018 plus pick up AZ(Sinema-D),NV(Rosen-D),TN(Bredesen-D),and TX(O'Rourke-D). 53D 47R
2020-Democrats need to hold onto every Democratic held US Senate seat up in 2020 plus pick up AZ(Kelly-D),CO(Hickenlooper-D),GA(Evans-D),LA(Landrieu-D),MT(Bullock-D),NC(Cooper-D),OK(Henry-D),TX(Castro-D) and WY(Freudenthal-D).62D 38R
2022-Democrats need to hold onto every Democratic held US Senate seat up in 2022 plus pick up FL(Graham-D),GA(Reed-D),LA(Bel Edwards-D),NC(Foxx-D),OH(Ryan-D),PA(Shapiro-D),and WI(Schachtner-D). 69D 31R.


For the Republicans bashing US Senate Democrats for this Government Shutdown.
We Democrats gave you Republicans Jones-AL, Donnelly-IN,McCaskill-MO,Heitkamp-ND, and Manchin-WV.
Republicans could not hang onto the Turtle-KY,Paul-KY,Flake-AZ,McCain-AZ,Graham-SC,and Lee-UT.

2020 US Presidential Election- Democratic Ticket-Kamala Harris/Cory Booker???

Harris-Booker ticket energizes and unites the Democratic party base and forces Trump to double down on his bigotry.
Harris-Booker ticket will win all of the Clinton-Kaine 2016 states plus PA,MI,and WI- 278ev along with FL and NC.
I am listening to the TURTLE of the US Senate speak on the US Senate Floor. Is McConnell, Donald Trump's Waylon Smithers?. Mitch McConnell even looks like and acts like Waylon Smithers.

Which year is the Democrats are likely to win back the White House-2020 or 2024?

2020- The election will be between a Republican incumbent with mediocre/poor approval ratings vs a lackluster Democratic challenger. The 2020 Democratic Presidential Nominee needs to win all of the states the 2016 Democratic Presidential Nominee won plus MI,PA,and WI. 278ev.
2024- OPEN seat election. After 8 years out of office- voters will want change. Ex. 2000,2008,and 2016.
Democratic Presidential Nominee could be either purple/red state Governors-Gwen Graham(D-FL) or purple/red state US Senators from states with Democratic Governor. Kyrsten Sinema(D-AZ),Catherine Cortez Masto(D-NV), or Tammy Baldwin(D-WI).
Gwen Graham would be the ideal Democratic Presidential Nominee- strong progressive from a battleground state FL.

2018 WI-10 State Senate Special Election Victor Patty Schachtner-D.

Schachtner-D won yesterday's special election by a 8 percent margin in a district that went for Trump-R by a 17 percent margin.
Should Schachtner-D run for the US House in 2020 against Duffy-R(WI-7) and then US Senate in 2022 against Johnson-R.
