> bad news for the GOP.

Ryan and McTurtle DO NOT WANT TO LEAD. Rs in congress do not want to be conservatives. They wanted Hillary so they would have an excuse to do nothing.

They have Trump for 4 years, so their best hope is to lose the house and/or senate in 2018 and they can go back to doing nothing and blaming the democrats. Every R victory increases expectations of Rs acting conservative and Ryan/McTurtle showing some leadership so this is bad news.

Let me see:

1. Trump under assault 24/7 by MSM for 120+ Days
2. Republicans under similar assault
3. Trump under attack by Deep State
4. Trump losing in leftist courts
5. Montana has elected 2 Democrats to Statewide offices
6. Conservative candidate “body slams” a urinalist
7. Conservative candidate wins by 7 points
8. Democrats Are the real winners

You can’t define DELUSIONAL any better. Keep “winning” please.

Agreed. They can argue all day that this was expected since Montana is a red state, but as noted in this thread the state has a Democrat governor and a Democrat US Senator. Spin till you’re blue in the face MSM. We know you and your Democrat wingmen are pissed as hell this morning over this loss.

Someone should photoshop that photo of Trump with his granddaughter on his lap reading “winners aren’t losers” with a photoshop head of that Montana rat candidate on the head of the granddaughter!

Oddly enough, all election results are great news for Democrats, no matter who wins or by how much.

A landslide is generally 10% or more, but this is a solid win in a special election. They are quirkier than a general election and the Dems, as the opposition, should have had their biggest turnout percentage compared to the total turnout.

They were clearly beaten, this is not good for them, the conventional wisdom is that the wind is at their backs. I don’t see it.

With the libertarian getting 6% that no-way would ever go for the ‘Rat, the good guys won by 7% + 6% or 13%.

13% is a landslide any way you look at it.

The inevitability of Democrats winning should be a worn-out message by now. It only works when low-energy Rinos believe it.

Yeah, sure. No doubt about it.

In the same way, Trump’s election was a big win for Democrats. Which is why they’ve been trying like heck to get rid of him.
