He’s not going to get anything more through Congress anyway... except SC justices confirmed by a Republican Senate. And she and her mob of crazy socialists will be the FACE of the Democrat party.
If Dems win the House they will be irrelevant for 2 years and will have zero chance of winning White House in 2020. If they do not win the House they can continue their whining and moaning to their commie base.
main goal of making Orange a one term president. Not that they are smart.
the state by 1500.
Republican enthusiam has surged since Kav. per Marist.
Dems might not even take the House when everyone thinks they should do so easily.
I'll tell you right now, not winning the House is one way to get a new minority Speaker.

saying by you in PA?
Since the redistricting was by the D laden State Supreme Court, the conventional wisdom was that in and of itself was worth several seats to the D’s but everything seems real close throughout the state.
If you want the bell weather HR race here, watch the Charlie Dent seat in the Lehigh Valley. If the D, Susan Wild wins, it could be a wave in the state. If the R’s hold, that will be a huge help. She’s a colleague of mine and I like her but she’s way to lib.
Another interesting race is my rep, Scott Perry, conservative vet, great guy. I don’t even hold his Orange alliegance against him. He had a very safe district, but is in a dog fight due to the redistricting. He could go down if Trump is the issue. Hope not.
On the Senate, Casey is a dolt, I won’t vote for him. Can’t stand Barletta’s sycophancy to Orange, but can’t stand Casey either. Will be a game time call if I pull the lever for Lou or not. Conventional wisdom is that Casey will win easily, but I’m not so sure. The guy is just such a nonentity.
So, there is my honest take on things here.
I didn't follow the whole issue. However, PA should still be interesting given (1) a possible (I said possible) increase in black support for Trump, and (2) the steel tariffs and coal production coming back. Will blacks come out for Repubs? Will union members vote for them? Who knows.
As far as my prediction for the House, Dems +20. Senate, Reps + 4 (making Murkowski's future votes much less important).

All. Every refusal will justify an additional investigation.
Of course, that may backfire in 2020.
Faithfully discharging the duties of one's office is seemingly an ancient oath.
Conflicts of interest and Russian meddling in our democracy simply were not deemed worthy of oversight by the GOP. [Power is everything]
I do agree that the passage of time has hurt the political viability of a Democrat led investigation (assuming the Democrats take the House, which is not a given). Most Americans seemingly do not care, and would prefer that Congress address issues impacting day-to-day concerns that Americans encounter. Congress can juggle more than one ball, but politically, the nation looking towards 2020 more and more.
Matters of principle or moral integrity, take a back seat to our portfolios, our taxes, and comforts. We have stopped asking ourselves the more difficult questions.
I remember when old governor Casey, the father of the current boob that is our senator took on the Clintons and the NOW cows back in 1992, the first “year of the woman”. The governor was an old school D, economically liberal, but socially conservative, especially on the abortion issue. He was a man of the people. His own father was a lawyer who represented coal miners with black lung.
They tried to stop the governor of one of the key D states in the nation from speaking at the D convention because of his views on abortion. Of course, the gov told them to go fuck themselves. In the end I think they let him talk at like 1 in the afternoon where he got booed. That took real balls to stick to yer guns and give the party clowns the middle finger.
Wish some of my own party had those kind of balls when dealing with the current abomination in the WH.

Rod Rosenstein via the Senate Judiciary Committee, while Democrats run amok in the House led by Nancy and Crazy Maxine.
The Dems always overplay their hand - every time. They will open a million investigations, and the public will respond in 2020 with a big Trump win and red wave. The Left simply cannot keep their veil up very long. The reason they always “overplay” their hand is because that is who they really are. They are far too radical for the American public so they hide it for elections, but their actions always betray them in the long run.
strongly). 39% Hispanics approve (21% strongly).
Iowa 2 District - R's up 7% in early voting compared to 2016, D's down 2.6%, 5,000 vote difference
Florida - R's lead by 7% in returned ballots
More Republicans requested early ballots in AZ, FL, OH, and IA (bellweather states) than they did in 2016 during a Presidential election.
These are hard numbers, not polls. These are votes/points on the board already.
I don't see a Blue wave.
