Just think. If the Democrats loose again they might actually leave America as they threatened last election.

I will tell you that if the GOP get's its right-wing fantasy and changes the country into a Christian theocracy then I will definitely retire abroad. Of course Im likely to retire abroad anyway, but I certainly won't spend my golden years in a right-wing populist fatherland.
That said, I'm not going anywhere until my 60th birthday and both civilian and military retirement.

I guess I'm right wing and I have never seen your view as the cause of Republicans. Plus you live in California. No elected Republicans there to worry about. // Hopefully the Democrats can put up a good candidate or do a better job in 2020 of rigging the election. I'd like to see about 30 Conservative Patriot States spring up and play the ole resist movement on the New Democrats.

Without even taking a side on this, it's been said on here and in the news that it's not uncommon to see congress flip in midterms. So I don't get "giddy" when I read it. Trump is probably the least popular President we've had in awhile regardless of party due to himself, not the GOP. This while "blue wave" mess is also being helped by the sheer number of prominent conservative legislators who are leaving for various reasons. I figured Chaffetz and Growdy would stick around no matter what. One left suddenly, the latter is leaving this year. I wonder even if the GOP keeps their hold on congress will Ryan and McConnell still remain in their seats? Neither are looking too good at the moment, and Ryan always seems unable to say or do the right thing.
Now if only Pelosi and Fienstien would join Chaffetz and Growdy....

His approval numbers suggest otherwise, and not just the ones from the liberal sites. Trump is popular to his base no argument. Outside of that core, he is not popular. The last two GOP candidates he's gone and endorsed have both lost in "purely" red states. Soo that in itself would say that his "popularity" is limited to himself, core, and a shrinking list of GOP legislators.
His popularity isn't registering with his own party when they're punching out in droves.

Not likely if history is a guide.
Trump is far more unpopular than any other president at this stage of his presidency than any in the last 50 years.
Midterms almost always go against the president’s party, especially when that president has low approval ratings.
Democrats are far angrier now than Republicans were in 2010.
Even among Republicans, support for Trump is far from universal with college educated, minority and women voters having negative approval ratings for Trump.
PA 18 was a 20 point win for Trump. It is a very good indicator that the GOP is in serious trouble.
And...., I really, REALLY hope the GOP gets seriously shellacked.
