I said from the very beginning, when a Red Wave was first predicted and polls showed that it could be an epic Red Wave; "never underestimate the R party ability to blow an absolute layup of an election."

And, damn, it hurts to be right.

The party of Kevin McCarthy is the direct descendant of a whole line of vanilla suited dullards, from John Boehner to Paul Ryan to our current cast of go-along-to-get-along Corporatists Boot Lickers.

It's called election fraud. No one wants McCarthy or Ryan except the mega donors who want to control the candidate. Trump could not be controlled.

I’ve received at least a half dozen calls from GOP donors who have told me the contents of their conversations AND sitting members of Congress have confirmed it. Kevin McCarthy and Paul Ryan have hatched a plan to defeat MAGA in 2024 and Ron DeSantis is the stool.

I wonder if all the rosy predictions had the effect of decreasing people's urgency to go out and vote. (Not that this was the intention, only an effect.)
