Yeah, i know you won't watch.

He even ignored most of what I posted that proved him wrong in post #36.

Ah, You Tube. So it must be true.

I enjoy You Tube. For entertainment. Anything political, I go and check it elsewhere. You should too. It could save you a lot of embarrassment.

I just showed you why Trump's large losses in the midterms are unexpected. Normally, when the economy is doing well, the president's party does well. Normally, when the economy is bad, the president's party does poorly. Hence, as the J.P. Morgan analysis shows, Obama's losses were expected, but Trumps losses were much worse than expected.

We're presently in the 8th year of an economic expansion. If that falters, the next election... well, you know.

And yet, the article title that you posted says, Trump suffered the worst midterm loss in a century. It didn't say "more than expected". Maybe it's meant to be a catchy title, even though it's totally misleading and untrue.

Yeah, it's..
I mean, obviously both sides are overly polarized... but..
Well, strange times.
Things unfold slowly.
Wish i could speed up time..

It's not odd that large population centers still have ballots to count.

After all they haven't finished altering enough of them yet. Takes time to be sure you've gotten enough to change the results.

And I wish you would address what I said.

I did.

 

[Aldebaran]

I did.

You dodged it, but I guess I can take your non-answer as your answer which is that Obama's and Clinton's losses were clearly much bigger than Trump's in this midterm election.

 

[Hieronymus]

...i didn't address it, i reacted on it.
"Yeah it's..."
It's crazy, pathetic, a shame, unfortunate, sad, fill in the blank.

O wait, i think you're mixing me up with someone else.

You're right! I apologize.
Ever since post #44, I thought I was talking to someone else.

Yep. He took the worst loss, because it was a 40 seat house defeat in good economic times. Worst ever.

Economy isn't everything. Media propoganda can have an effect to the point of convincing people that they are worse off than ever even when things are going better than ever.

Apparently not this time. For Trump, it was too little, too late.

to the point of convincing people that they are worse off than ever even when things are going better than ever.

Almost all the media were saying that we were 8 years into an economic expansion. That's sounds pretty good to me.

Too little of what?

Even Trump's people admit that it's a fact. No point in denying what's public record.

All the propaganda put out by pro-Trump media, wasn't enough.
