The left-of-center FiveThirtyEight political blog reveals the probable cause for Trump-bashing hysteria…the 2018 election outlook for Democrats is a disaster in the making.

Pull quote: “Even if Democrats were to win every single 2018 House and Senate race for seats representing places that Hillary Clinton won or that Trump won by less than 3 percentage points — a pretty good midterm by historical standards — they could still fall short of the House majority and lose five Senate seats.” (bold emphasis added)

Not only does that stark reality explain the hysterical ‘no facts needed’ outcry to push every attack in the effort to get Trump de-legitimized, it reveals another sad reality…

…even if Democrats finally hound him out of office, attacks against Republicans will (of necessity) continue, because to regain ground they must de-legitimize the entire Party.

Even more compelling, this reality should sink into self-serving brains of what passes for GOP political leadership in Congress – because there’s only one way to handle it.

They need to step up, shoulder to shoulder with President Trump.

Message to Republicans: It’s not just about him, you clowns: the President is merely the first brick in the GOP wall Democrats must demolish in order to regain their majority.

Hard Reality? Strap in, they’re not gonna let up anytime soon.
