I will laugh so hard, if Trump is a one termer that lost Congress, the Senate, and the Presidency. Not super huge in US politics history, but when was the last time this happened?

One could argue that the collapse after passing the ACA was pretty significant.. maybe not as drastic because Obama won a 2nd term but Dems did lose the Senate and the House and a LOT of state governments went red.. and while Trump was a 1 term wonder and the Senate flipped back, the Senate will (hopefully) be 50/50, and they lost seats in the House, and almost none of the recovery started in 2018 in state level governments continued, and many lost ground.

One can of course argue about the impact of gerrymandering and suppression of voting and such.

And throw in losing the Supreme Court for a generation...

It's nice that Trump is gone but really Dems are still pretty far behind.

Textbook Stockholm syndrome. They worship, praise, and support people who egregiously abuse and take advantage of them. So sad to see.

I'd say Warnock is basically a lock now, Ossoff gonna be tight.

Omg I've spotted 12 fraud already, just by sitting here in front of my computer. Amazing. How do I donate to Trump's upcoming investigation into this??

It probably wouldn't hurt. The Republican brand is poison and he is one of the few that can distance himself from them and not be completely hypocritical.

It would have been nice if he was harder on Trump, but he was never a supporter at least.

Leads have shrunk dramatically. 2 points for Warnock and 1.2 points for Ossoff.

Fraud! How can someone be leading by a lot, and suddenly more votes come in, and the lead shrinks!? Do they think we are stupid!?

The leads have shrunk but due to where the votes are coming from the probabilities have actually moved more in the democrats favour.
