Yes, we already gave you some he-can’t-be-serious Chris Hayes hot takes today, but he keeps talking, so we have to fill you in. It’s what we do!
Chris is super concerned all you ignorant common folks out there just don’t understand the chaos that will result from a GOP victory in the upcoming midterm elections.
You know, inflation could skyrocket, prices could soar, we could leave Americans stranded in Afghanistan, they might try to take people’s jobs away over personal medical decisions, Russia could invade Ukraine, there could be threats of nuclear war, and they might spend morning, noon, and night comparing American citizens to people who murdered 6 million Jews.
Yeah, that would be bad.
I think it's very hard to communicate to the median voter convincingly the chaos that a GOP victory is likely to unleash, and I think a lot of professionals vastly underestimate the tail risk.

Of all the bubble dwellers on the Left, Chris Hayes’s bubble is particularly opaque.
‘Tail Risk’ sounds like a Secret Service code name during the Clinton administration. Anyhoo …
You all know Twitter had something to say about Chris’s histrionics.

Chris is an overachiever.
Ah yes the sky is falling routine again.
Chris, people see the sky falling all around them with this current administration. It’s a disaster.

I think it's very hard to communicate to bourgeois, out of touch "professionals" just how savvy "median voters" actually are, and I think those "professionals" vastly underestimate how much they are loathed

Clifton gets it.
Americans might even go back to being able to afford basic necessities.

The horror! Oh no! Please, not that!
"Chaos" in this case meaning "extremely traditional gridlock."
Come on dude.
— Ben Domenech (@bdomenech) October 21, 2022
Sweet, sweet gridlock. Now that’s something we could get on board with.
Almost as chaotic as Russia attacking the Ukraine, N Korea launching 30 missiles after a 4 year break, China seeing Russia get away with starting war & threatening Taiwan, a fentanyl trafficking & crime wave, 9% inflation & a stock market crash all in 18 months.

Oh, it could get much, much worse if the GOP wins. They could … gulp … bring back mean tweets!!!
I think it is very hard to communicate to the median media elite convincingly the chaos that one-party Dem controlled cities unleashED on our lives and on our children, and I think a lot of you underestimate our memories.

Hear! Hear!
Lots of voters tend to focus on the chaos they see now, and they judge that by things impacting their daily life, rather than whats on the news. Like food and gas prices & a general sense that stuff is not normal.
— Chris Arnade 🐢🐱🚌 (@Chris_arnade) October 21, 2022
In other words, normal people are concerned about real life.
You mean Democrats are going to start burning cities again?

For democracy and stuff.
That’s because the median voter is not a shrill drama queen https://t.co/6VFXHSRiNZ

We think it’s very hard to communicate to the median voter how hilarious it will be watching Chris Hayes when Democrats lose.
