    GOP losses are only going to make the base more unhinged and Trump, unable to deliver anything legislatively and piqued by Mueller and House investigations, is going to lean even harder into ethnic demagoguery. The line from Fox will be that immigrants stole the election. https://twitter.com/conor64/status/1058480233098096640 …

        I want the Dems to win, but things are going to get even hotter if the Dems capture the House.

        Yet a blue wave on Tuesday is still the best option. This whole Trump experiment was never not going to end badly. A Democratic House would be the first sign we have that it will at least indeed end some day.

        This cannot be overstated: Trump's base is a finite group. They are at capacity. People who are NOT in trump's base, many of whom don't currently vote are NOT a finite group. These are the people for Democrats to talk to. Get them and Trump's base will be powerless. Irrelevant.

        Unfortunately, yes. I don’t think the anger Trump’s core feels should be under-estimated. Right now, he is giving then a focus. When (if?) they start to feel he has “failed” them, they may lose focus and become significantly more dangerous as a result.

        Not entirely unrelated, but has anyone done an comparative analysis of the current American political situation with mid-to-late 19th century Germany? I’m thinking that comparison may be more fruitful than the dominant analogue being pursued re: Weimar Germany/early Third Reich

        Sure, but it’s kinda a damned if the lose, screwed if they win, sorta thing, right? Either they’re validated in success or double down in sunk cost insanity if they fail.
