    Obama did by causing the democrats to lose more than a 1000 seats in one midterm election which was the greatest loss of any party since the 30's.

    They also rejected his "heir apparent" to the throne, Hillary Clinton. :)

    Nobody destroyed the DNC like those two.

    People don't like what Bonespurs is doing to our country. They are voting against him even where he's not on the ballot.

    2018 was a blue wave. They did pretty well for being "destroyed".

    And if I ran in California on a pro-abortion and open borders platform I could probably win.

    A blue ripple is more like it.

    As bad as you left-wingers have portrayed Trump as being, the Democrats actually didn't do that well.

    Not really.

    If that was the case, then the down ballot seats in Kentucky and Louisiana would have also gone to the Dims, but they didn't.

    No. The "1000 seat loss" was spread across 3 different elections. Trump losing 400 in one election is thus a worse. Especially when you take into account that Obama had to deal with a global recession during his first midterm. Trump had a winning economy to keep his loses from being even worse.

    The being the voter fraud that Trump's commission tried to find and then folded because it was a fraud itself?

    The single largest popular vote margin of victory for those in the House and Senate in a midterm in US history.

    The commission who tried to keep its information secret from its own committee members?

    And yet the GOP is still losing in spite of its efforts to rig the vote.

    Who in the Hell is in favor of having abortions?

    It's called having a choice, and the Republicans try to claim that they want government out of our lives, but want to impose a minority's religious beliefs.

    If you're a Republican, you'd beg Bonespurs to stay the Hell away from your campaign.

    The Democrats lost 63 seats in 2010.

    The Republicans lost 41 seats in 2018.

    You were saying?

    Without any voter fraud, Democrats won ~400 elections in 2018 and two governorships in deep red states over the last two weeks.
