According to your "theory" Obamnable was being repudiated soundly:

The 2010 midterm election is also the third consecutive midterm election held in a president's first term where Republicans picked up seats across both houses of Congress. It was also the second consecutive midterm election where party control in the House of Representatives changed hands.

The 2014 United States elections were held on Tuesday, November 4, 2014, in the middle of Democratic President Barack Obama's second term. During this midterm election year, all 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives and 36 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate were contested; along with 39 state and territorial governorships, 46 state legislatures (except Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, and Virginia),[1] four territorial legislatures, and numerous state and local races. This midterm election became the most expensive in history, with total spending reaching $3.7 billion (including spending by outside entities[2]), while producing the lowest turnout since 1942 at only 36.4%.[3][4][5]
The elections saw sweeping gains by the Republican Party in the Senate, House, and in numerous gubernatorial, state, and local races. The Republicans gained control of the Senate for the first time since 2006, and increased their majority in the House.[6] The Republicans also gained two seats in governors' races.[7] This election marked the fourth consecutive midterm election in which party control of at least one chamber of Congress changed hands.
Overall, the elections resulted in the largest Republican majority in the entire country in nearly a century, with 54 seats in the Senate, 247 (56.78%) in the House, 31 governorships (62%), and 68 state legislative chambers. Moreover, Republicans gained their largest majority in the House since 1928, the largest majority in Congress overall since 1928, and the largest majority of state legislatures since 1928.[8][9][10]

So you confirm Obaminable was doing a lousy job. I agree.

Of course we'll see.

Then you can blame the Russians, again!

I'm interested in how you define "Red Wave" and "Blue Wave".

I see you conveniently ignored most of my post. From asking you to tell me when you predicted Trump's victory in 2016 to avoiding making a prediction on the 2018 mid-term elections to citing articles that support your position that the mid-term elections are not about Trump's performance as POTUS. Oh well.

Yes, Obama was repudiated soundly in 2010. I voted for Obama primarily for one reason -- my 401k was in the ditch thanks to the recession. Months after Obama took office the DJIA was at 6626. 2 years later, in November 2010, the DJIA was at 11444. That's an increase of 72% in less than 2 years in office!!! Yet even with all the economic success under Obama, he was rejected by voters in 2010, even though YOU believe the mid-term elections are unrelated to the performance of the incumbent POTUS.

Today, Trump admitted that he wasn’t the greatest president ever. Over and over and over again.

He says “nobody has done a better job” than him.

I’ll buy that.

I think the country would be better off with nobody.

Red wave.. 4+ seats being won by republicans
Blue wave, 4+ seats being won by dems.

Twitler is hot on the trail of the “amoninous” author.

He is about to pop.

Are you talking the Senate, the House, or a combination of both?

If the Democrats win only 4 additional seats in the House I would not deem it close to a "Blue Wave".

My opinion for a Blue Wave would be Democrats taking control of both the House AND the Senate. Or the Democrats winning an additional 40+ seats in the House and not losing any seats in the Senate. There are other scenarios that I say would be significant victory for Democrats but not come under the category of a Blue Wave.

How pregnant is pregnant?

A 1-0 win looks the same in the standings as a 10-0 win.

It’s all about achieving the goal of extracting the lunatic Trump and his band of dipshits from our national life.

Last night, David Axelrod suggested that “amonymous” might actually be EVERYBODY in the cabinet, each taking one sentence or paragraph, like the killer in “Murder on the Orient Express.”

I could see how the op-ed might have been a collaborative effort, the work of the Steady State. But I couldn’t see Perry, Carson or DeVos participating. One can’t read, one can’t concentrate and one can’t see.

It's apt and notable that this op-ed be compared to "Murder on the Orient Express". The op-ed and Christie's book are both works of fiction penned by one person for the purpose of incriminating several.

We’ll see after Trump spends the rest of his election cycle interrogating every single member of his administration, won’t we IBH?

I think the author should come forward and identify the rest of the resistance. They don’t get a pass for stopping 10% of the lunacy in the White House. But they have exposed the GOP as the party that now values loyalty to a man over allegiance to country and constitution.

He’s quickly losing control of himself.

Bob Woodward’s book is also fiction, IBH? All of it?

Naw...

Dr Carson is an industrious man and capable enough of concentration to operate on people's brains!!!

P.S. I think Michael Jackson's doctor was too lazy to look up the potential dangers of administering propofol without an O2 monitor.

Naw...

For the past four days, C-SPAN showed the next Supreme Court Justice masterfully dealing with the petty dims in the Senate.

No one at C-SPAN made any mention of Woodward's book or thought it worth mentioning.

C-SPAN is far removed from the echo chamber of the lame-stream media that most lib-retards live in and where they receive their daily dose of pablum prescribing what they, the viewers, should think and do.

Neither Woodward's book nor this op-ed will stop Kavanuagh from being confirmed before the next court convenes in October, and they will both soon be relegated to the dust bin of history where they belong.

Thank you for correcting me on that. Carson is just crazy. But if he was such a brilliant brain surgeon, why isn’t he still doing it? Maybe he was smart enough to get out before people got hurt by his industriousness.

Michael Jackson’s doctor??? What does he have to do with this discussion? Or are you simply blowing dog whistles about ancient racial stereotypes?

Of course that bit of boosterism has nothing to do with the topic of this thread.

I’ve stated that Kavanaugh will get railroaded through the process. And he will.

But the validity of the attributed comments in Woodwards book dovetail with the sentiments expressed in the NYT op-ed. And that’s for all to see,

You may want to believe it’s the work of the “lib-retards” and whatever other institutions for which you jingoistically echo euphemisms. You may even discount it as fiction.

But at least one person knows if it’s true.

And he’s losing his shit all over the White House, ordering the DOJ to find “amonynous” and demanding the NYT “turn over” “amonynous” to protect national security.

Vlad ain’t Glad!

And on a previous occasion in this nation's history an arrogant and self-promoting *statesman*, Secretary of State William Seward, also thought he knew what was best for the country and that Abraham Lincoln was an incompetent country bumpkin. Seward's back channel, mixed-messaged communications with the South led directly to the destruction of this country and ultimately to war.
