As things worsen for Trump I think we are going to see Dem candidate gains across the board.

Trump is the face of the Republican party. Few R candidates have distanced themselves from him and in fact just the opposite. Those candidates will have a very hard time removing the Trump albatross from their necks by Nov. Even those who are not Trump loyalists will be also be affected just by being a Republican. This could be the "October Surprise" that preserves our control of both the Senate and the House.

We may actually be "thanking" Trump come election day!

1. That + if gas prices get below $3 good news for us.

Everybody sees that number everyday. It’s not a barometer, it drives public opinion.

3. Gas is 3.09 here at a nearby station.

That's good enough for most folks.

2. I just hope so, even if I can't imagine thanking him for anything.

4. I hope you're right - several toss-up states could go our way

Wouldn't that be nice for a change?

5. I don't see how it could not affect Republican turn out?

It surely will not help them.

[honest.abe]

6. Yes, at the very least it should affect R turnout.

I think it could also flip some independents/moderates.

7. Watched a CNN report about TFGs high negatives

Rather then the Repubs being able to make this election a referendum on Biden, TFG's insistence on being the face of the party is making the upcoming election a referendum on the very unpopular ex.

8. I really wish we could take out Greg Abbott!

Come on Texas, you deserve better than a Fox and religious right controlled puppet!

[honest.abe]

9. Texas is a challenge for Dems but who knows.

It would be amazing to have TX Gov Beto!

[Initech]

10. We definitely got to flip that state.

The religious right there is drunk with power and totally out of control. They're steering Texas down a very dark path. And it's way past time they were finally kicked to the curb.
