MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough was in a tizzy Monday because it just dawned on old Joe that Democrats are doomed in the House. The host and his guest really start to panic when they realize it will not take much for Republicans to flip the Senate as well.
“The House, if you look at history, if you look at the latest inflation report, at this point I’d be very surprised if Republicans didn’t have a good night in the house,” Scarborough said. “It would have to be historic, historic occurrence, a lot of Democrats still hoping the overturning of Roe would cause some hidden trend lines [that] we’re not seeing in the polls.”
Inflation increased at 0.4% in September from August while “core” inflation, which measures the price of goods excluding food and energy, hit a 40-year high.
Scarborough argued the Senate still seems “up for grabs” and mentioned Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Ohio and Georgia’s senate races.
“The House looks like Republicans ought to be doing well, the Senate? My gosh, it looks like we can go anywhere from Republicans three up, to Democrats two,” he said.
MSNBC’s Jonathan Lemire then said Republicans may pick up a few seats in the House but Democrats may still have the upper hand. Lemire said he expects Nevada’s Senate race to favor Republicans while Pennsylvania’s seat may very well go to Democratic candidate and Lt. Gov. John Fetterman.
Lemire also said he’s unsure about Ohio’s Senate seat but that ultimately “this is going to come down to one state, and that state is Georgia.”
“Boy, it’s gonna be close.”
Watch
Scarborough has a good reason to be scared. He’s played propagandist for the left and failed. Voters are more concerned with their personal decreased quality of life under Biden. Certainly, more than the media expected.
