We need term limits to purge Washington. We need people in congress and the senate who are fresh and don’t hold grudges and put country over party.

It's going to be a fascinating November.

Almost no chance the GOP loses seats in the senate, only because there are so many more democrats up for re-election. If half the seats up for re-election were GOP seats, different story.

In the house? Most people say if the election were today, the democrats would re-take the house. However, these are the same people who said that Trump was going to get creamed.

Will people vote against Trump because he's such a jerk? Or will they vote in favor of their larger paychecks? I don't think anyone knows. Democrats don't usually vote in bug numbers in mid-terms, that helps the GOP. But in most midterms, the president's party loses seats, which helps the Dems. So many moving pieces.

Term limits for sure. Politics was never intended to be a career, it was intended to be a temporary call of service that wasn't even supposed to be all that pleasant.
