Looks like the Democrat will probably win the special e******n in Pa. by running against his own party. He’s pro gun, pro coal, pro tariff, and anti Pelosi.
Also democrats are fired up. Is this a bell weather of the mid terms? Maybe. Saccone was down by 6 or more percent before Trumps visit. Mid terms traditionally are bad for the party in power. My prediction, Democrats pick up 18 in House and lose 4 in Senate.

Our politics can't get much stupider. Millions poured into a congressional seat that will no longer exist in November. I don't want to hear Republicans or Democrats talk about funding anything when they can squander money over this e******n, basically for bragging rights. The Republicans have been picking boring almost non-electable candidates for special e******ns and the Democrats have been running candidates that look more like old establishment Republicans than Democrats. Of course if the Republican wins (which I doubt) the Democrats will run around screaming to anyone who will listen that Trump is toxic. Which he may be win or not. If the Republicans win they will say they won do to Trump. Possible since the candidate doesn't offer much in the personality department. Either way, doesn't mean a damn thing.

Oh, if he was a republican you would call him a RINO.....

You neglect to note that 45 has been in business for a year. Evidently the results and choices of this administration are not pleasing any longer to those who might have v**ed for 45.
YES, like poor California with ONLY $6 billion in surplus.

According to the polls, Trump's retention of v**ers is around 85%. Not bad for a guy the media has constantly vilified.

Privately and earlier, L'Orange said he didn't like Saccone anyway. But in a district that Trump took by 20 points, and Conor Lamb won, here comes the Blue Tsunami nationwide in the midterms.

The Republicans spent over $10 million on Saccone who most savvy people thought would lose anyway because he was just a mindless Trumpbot.
Trump's "campaign speech" for Saccone was nothing more than a Trump self-congratulatory mess which convinced no one to v**e for Saccone.
The t***h. Saccone was a poor candidate who was down 6 to 10 points to Lamb before Trump showed up. Did Trump's speech move the needle? Don't know. One could certainly argue this. In all honesty I hope Lamb pulls it out. I want to see how this man v**es. He's pro gun, pro life, pro tariff, and anti Pelosi. Conservatives win either way if this man v**es his values as he espouses. He also puts the Democrats, now ruled by the insane left in one hell of a conundrum. If more Democrats sounded and v**ed like Lamb I could v**e for them. However; if he really v**es against the Schumer, Pelosi agenda he'll be nothing but a whipping boy for the Democrats.

Republicans should have chosen a more aggressive or assertive candidate. Someone younger with much potential. GOP asked for money to support Saconne. I sent money, cause I want Republican to win, and now that went down to the drain. Perhaps wrong candidate. It was close e******n. Perhaps the democrats c***ted again as their SOP all the time.

I guess the fact that it is meaningless is why the Pumpkinfuhrer flew in to campaign and the Republicans put ten million into the race. That comes to almost $300 of corporate money per v**er.

Very small difference. The demoncrats c***ted again. That is what they do to win!
