[h=1]‘The Republicans Are In Deep Trouble’ in 2018, Says GOP Pollster[/h] Max Kutner,Newsweek 10 hours ago



The Republicans are in danger of losing their control of Congress in the 2018 midterm elections, according to a leading Republican pollster.
Speaking on Fox News on Sunday, Frank Luntz said, “I think the Republicans are in deep trouble in the House, and the Senate as well. If the election were held today, frankly, I think Republicans would lose both.”


He at least partly blamed President Donald Trump for this: “If Donald Trump wants to keep the Republican Congress, he has to differentiate when he’s attacking Congress in general versus the Republicans in Congress.”
Luntz also said that Trump’s social media use is a distraction, especially by redirecting news away from positive stories about the economy. “It’s his own tweets that are causing so much of the trouble,” Luntz said, adding that Trump should “remove about a third of them.” He continued, “He should be focused on the economy and on taxes.”

Another Republican figure, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, made similar comments last week about the position the GOP is in, tweeting, “We can’t let a #BlueWave take us backward!”
In the Senate, 35 seats are up in the 2018 elections. Democrats need to defend their existing 26 of those seats and win two additional ones in order to take control of the chamber. In the House, 435 seats are up for election in November. The Republicans in that chamber currently hold 238 seats and the Democrats have 192 and are expected to gain more.

Pauper's threads smell worse than dog farts.

Do they smell as bad as your incredibly stupid claim that pedophile Moore had prosecuted KKK murderers as a teenager? How about squawking "Fake News!" like the brainless parrot that you are when you learned about what Steve Bannon said about Twittler?

Like clockwork:


Luntz: Pelosi Is So Unpopular, GOP Could Keep House Majority in Midterms



When asked about the generic congressional vote numbers tightening in favor of Republicans, Luntz said, “I have been tracking this on a weekly basis going back now for a year and a half, and these are the best numbers the GOP had in the last year. One of the reasons is that women, working women, women with children, have begun to leave the Democratic party. It’s not they are pro-Republican, but what they see among the Democrats is the negativity that turned them off in previous elections. Second is that Nancy Pelosi is simply the least popular credible figure in the Democratic party right now. She is more unpopular than Hillary and Chuck Schumer.”

He continued, “If Republicans could find some way to engineer a vote over who would be Speaker of the House in January of 2019, if they could engineer that vote, I would be prepared to say right now that the Republicans would keep the majority, because there are so many people out there—swing voters—who do not want Pelosi as Speaker that one action would make a difference.”
