(3,900 posts)Last night it was something about how Democrats were about to get "crushed" in the midterms under a "mountain of inflation."
Literally minutes ago, I saw a story about how Democrats are preparing to lose as many as 30 seats in the House and lose control of the Senate as well.
Story after story after story. I'm sick of it. And I know why they do it (wishful thinking, along with some hope that they can influence the outcome they want), but it still pisses me off, especially when you look at the actual data and see the exact opposite.
What I hope is that this constant drumbeat of "OMGZZZZ!!! Democrats are going to get SLAUGHTERED in the midterms!!!" will cause Republican voters to fall asleep at the wheel, assume this is a done deal, and just stay home.
