Truman (A president with a spine) would say:<br><br>&quot;The buck stops here&quot;, AKA the fault lies with the guy in charge.

TRUMP<br>Is not just to Blame for the Republicans getting what they Deserved in the MIDTERMS.<br>He is also Responsible for the Death &amp; Destruction + the Economic Chaos throughout the World.<br>He should be Removed at Once from His Position even if it needs a Change in the Law before He does something which CANNOT be Repaired.<br>This So called EU in Brussels/Strasbourg=BERLIN should also be made to find a Solution to that Wasteful War in Europe.<br>Why is there WAR in Europe ?

We must pay tribute to Trump, he is a genius, because he was able to shift aid to Ukraine onto the shoulders of European taxpayers.Bravo!

This recession has its roots in the Biden administration. But Trump went around the country working very hard to take credit for this economy, and he got what he wanted last night. He was gaslighting the country on the so-called booming economy, this in effect signed his name to it. Last night he got credit for this economy, plain and simple. You went around locking up illegals anddeporting them which was good, but the real criminals the ones that employ them walked away. You gave tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy and threw elderly people and disabled people off of SNAP benefits. This is the economy you wanted or so it appears, and you got credit for it. Biden started this recession, and you stupidly went around the country trying to take credit for this economy.

In America, we often throw our politicians out when they&#39;re corrupt or incompetent.<br>Let&#39;s hope the ensuing investigations will bring justice to all the corrupt cronies of Trump.

What I am interested in is that there is also a split in Democrats where there is the pro-AIPAC, and then there is the Anti AIPAC and Anti-establishment. This is kind of like the Republican Party, people such as MTG.

Trump said that the Rs would have won if he had been on the ballot because he is a narcissist and a con man, wrapped up in the delusions of his own self importance.

Trump enabled those that would follow him with crooked, criminal politics. His entourage was a gang of thieves. Trump was the enabler and protector. The loss is 100% due to Trump&#39;s personal activities.

philosophyofscienceandla
President of North Star Opinion Research Whit Ayres (thoroughly Republican lobbyist). Of course, anything Republican is never the fault of the Republicans themselves. Why didn&#39;t Whit just come and say it, that &quot;Trump isn&#39;t Republican enough to get away with breaking laws as if no one should ever recognize that?&quot;
philosophyofscienceandla
The fact that the entire Republican Party are practically on paid vacation pretending Democrat &quot;weaponization&quot; deserves greater news coverage.

Lol I love that this Republican political advisor simply cannot hide his disdain for Donald Trump. The reporter is throwing him softballs and he looks so angry that he can&#39;t just complete tear Trump a new one on camera.

It&#39;s absolutely his fault. But it&#39;s not just his tariff policies or the Iran war, it&#39;s the naked corruption and enrichment of himself and his family at the expense of the American people.

“No. Look, I mean, if I were on the ballot, we would have won. You saw the people that were packed. Thousands and thousands of people at every rally. And if I was on the ballot, we would have won. But they just, you couldn&#39;t transfer that love. There was such love at those rallies. It was incredible. And we weren’t able to transfer the love to those candidates.”<br><br>No, everybody could smell that love you transferred to those candidates from miles away.

Only time will tell. What I find most interesting is the Texas Senate elect candidate James Talarico. Heard him at a rally and a late night comedy type show as a guest, this guy is amazing. He seems like the type of person that has political motivation based on deep spiritual beliefs of God and will use that as a basis for his policies instead of the insatiable appetite for power and money, yet again only time will tell.

He is an addict. Addicted to control, power, and money. And he will externalize blame because he has an underdeveloped ego. He compensates for this with control, power, and money (a false self). He won’t take blame for anything - ever. He can’t handle shame like a well developed person can.

There is a massive world change that has come to a head. 8.32 billion people on planet Earth can no longer afford to fund the 1% of the world&#39;s population who now hold between 37% to 47% of the world&#39;s entire wealth. There is no solution but for a massive overhaul worldwide of wealth distribution. Otherwise, increased inflation and all other negative ills now impacting everyday humans will increase in intensity. Desperate people do desperate things
vanrozay8871
@vanrozay8871Imported5d ago
Many liberal American voters, like me, hoped Trump&#39;s low approval would hurt GOP candidates. We hardly dared hope that would some true so radically. Trump is a thin-skinned child, unable ever to admit weakness or resist attacking all who fail to praise him enough. He is psychologically very far gone into a world of delusion.

@optimvsprinceps1845Imported5d ago
The blame lies on a lot of factors such as the Pandemic, the open border under Biden, the Ukraine war, the lack of oil refineries in the world, yes the Iran war among many other things that build up over time. The American public is just frustrated with the party that’s currently in power, as is the custom.

aenoether
@aenoetherImported5d ago
I think Trump has had 2 major achievements: first, he forced Europe to become an autonomous platform with an independent moral compass. This is critical for the future of the world because it provides a model for the security of medium-sized and small countries from the large behemoths. (e.g. Russia). <br><br>Second, he ended “The Republican Revolution”. Starting in the late 1980s and reaching full force in the 1994 midterms Newt Gingrich executed a deliberate strategy to dismantle the moderate, bipartisan wing of the GOP and replace it with an ideologically uniform, combative national voting bloc.  I think that Trump became the culmination of this strategy and also its destruction.
