    Today we heard that California representative Paul Cook becomes the 18th GOP House Rep. to announce he will not be seeking reelection,compared to only 4 Dems thus far.We also have learned that Four Senators will not seek reelection,3 Republicans and 1 Democrat thus far.Seems to be following a very similar pattern that which led up to the last election.

    By all means let the Neocons abandon ship. If one refuses to be part of the solution one can at least opt to not be part of the problem.

    Yikes, THIS is the best barometer for success you could find for the Democrat Party?

    Based on the enthusiasm, money raised, events had and individual issue polls .... it looks like 2020 could be a statement election.

    We will see, but what looks like is going to happen is the Progressive/Communists that are trying to take over the party are going to end up making 2020 their time to shine. They already are doing so, having many Progressive/Communist candidates going HEAVILY against Democrats in their current seats.

    This is already creating a disconnect and it is going to take a huge toll with the voters. Worst of all, without the Clinton Machine, it is going to be fascinating to see what happens with the black vote. I bet they support Trump at around 15-18% which will be a massive increase.

    Either way, Progressive/Communist media is dying all over the place. MSNBC and CNN have ratings lower than ever, NYT is losing people and called out as liars weekly, ThinkProgress and many other media sites are broke out of business....

    Then on the other hand, Conservative media is at record high and growing at a record pace.

    We are going to see the "two media's" try and berate the public with their narrative and the only thing that matters is the 2020 vote.

    Last but not least, Leftists last and greatest hope is to purposefully trash the economy, but unfortunately for them America is one of the only "safe places" for investors and we are seeing almost all sectors continue to show strong numbers.

    Politics aside, this is an AWESOME moment in history! It is going to be really interesting to see the data come out and be able to compare that with the media stories going on now.

    Not surprised to see aging GOP members retiring or leaving to enter the private sector. The GOP welcomes fresh and new ideas in Govt, they don’t hold on to old rich white people who won’t give up power...ie Nancy, Joe, Sanders et al

    Here, let me put it in simpleton terms for ya!

    The left has: ABC-NBC-CBS-CNN-MSNBC-PBS-NPR-NYT-LAT-Newsweek-Time-Twitter-FaceBook-Google-Hollywood

    The right has: Fox News and AM radio

    The vast majority of the media and ALL of Hollywood is controlled by extreme left-wingers.

    Do you understand now?

    I’ll make it simple for you: National Amusements, Comcast, Disney, and AT&T.

    What confuses me is right wingers playing the victim to right wing policy. You totally support deregulation, vertical integration, consolidation, or precisely the current media environment.

    The reality is your simpleton explanation is completely bogus. It’s proffered by charlatans( Limbaugh, Hannity, et al.) on the “right” to keep the naive in line: rile you up to combat the “other” and convince you to vote against your self interest.

    It’s fascinating and obviously they’re good at it.

    What does this have to do with anything that I said?
    Deregulation? Yes, I support that. I never said I wanted more government regulation.
    Vertical integration? Consolidation? I never said I supported such policies.
    I'm 55 years old. I've seen the left-wing bias in the media way back when I was just a teen when there was no cable/internet and only ABC-CBS-NBC-NPR-PBS and newsprint and radio.

    Many of the GOP who have left the congress are now admitting they did it because they cannot stand Dirty Donald and his self serving government.

    Which is it? "Many" or "Some"?

    Like I said, your original statement is fake news.

    Yup, the GOP reps who are not running again blame a lot of it on the way Donald is running government and they don't want any part of it.

    But Trump has already won an election. You know, the 2016 election that all you left-wingers said no way he would win.
