Predict the results of the 2022 election?

Personally I think this will be a massive gain for the GOP making Biden a lame duck president for the rest of his term (if he isn't already). People disapprove of the way the country is going and don't have Trump to vote against.

 

I predict if Trump stays out of it, repubs gain seats

if Trump becomes a big part of it, dems pick up seats

the party in power normally loses seats in the midterms, but Trump could change that

 

You really think if a Liz Cheney or similar took over the GOP it would go anywhere? Ha! Trump is the reason Americans still have hope that there is a chance to have a difference!

 

I think Trump gets the dem vote out

 

Too early to gauge, if this feckless "administration" and equally feckless Democratic Congress continues on it's current course it'll be a historic rout....KEEP IT UP, BOYS AND GIRLS!!!

 

Polls are showing a moderate gain in the Senate for Republicans — House metrics are not available due to redistricting but likely a small gain there also.

Just like pretty much every mid-term election previously.

It is almost like no one in government represents the average American…

 

Who is anticipating gains for the Democrats, and why? Or are these just trolls so voting?

 

Too soon to call IMO because there are too many potential variables to consider.

The virus is probably going to make another resurgence between now and this time next year and how that is handled will have an impact on the midterms.

The rise in inflation versus the refusal to accept a pittance in wages by Millennials will have an impact on the economy and therefore an impact on the midterms.

The insane TX abortion law could be ruled either way by the SCrOTUS and that ruling will have an impact on voter turnout for the midterms.

Then there are the unknowns like serious weather events, catastrophic infrastructure failures or terrorist attacks each of which could impact the midterms.

And let us not forget the potential for foreign meddling on social media spreading disinformation that might have an impact.

Overall we are currently on track for a regular midterm where the party in power is blamed for whatever annoys the the most voters so they either do not vote for the party in power or vote against the party in power.

But given all of the variables mentioned above I suspect that one or more of them could sway the outcome either way depending upon how they are handled.
