It’s a given that the political party in charge will face voter backlash in the midterm elections. The Republicans had a good chance to break that pattern by simply advancing President Donald Trump’s MAGA agenda after a presidential election in which he won the Electoral College, the popular vote, and swept every swing state. Instead, there’s been infighting and refusal to pass the SAVE Act. It’s no surprise that mad MAGA voters may sit out the upcoming elections and hand Democrats the midterms. However, Republican commentator Scott Jennings says despite the failure to enact Trump's agenda, the party still has a chance to hold on to seats and make some gains.
Here are his three reasons why. (WATCH)

Democrats went full commie. Independents like fully stocked Costcos and police officers keeping us safe.

The spreading communist infection in the Democrat Party may help the struggling GOP. Thanks, commies!
Posters wish Republicans would grow a spine and expose what Democrats fully support.
Scott- this is easy and I don’t know why republicans aren’t doing it. EVERY ad should be splashing examples of illegals let in, criminals protected by Dems that have killed and raped Americans. That’s it. That’s the formula.

Agree. We need more tv ads. Show what’s happening in Spain could happen here if Dems get in. That would put Elon’s money to good use.

It already did happen here on a much greater scale.

A closed border is a slam dunk issue that Republicans should hammer every day until ballots are cast in November.

Commenters say Republicans must get off their butts and campaign door-to-door if they want to hold back a Democrat Party that’s clearly insane.
Not necessarily. The Republicans have to WORK for votes. Grassroots: get out and knock on doors. Keep highlighting what the DSA platform specifically says. Anyone with COMMON SENSE knows it is a platform of chaos.

This is frightening, as the Republicans represent common sense. Their fighting chance should be obvious, but apparently not.

So is that the fault of the crazies or the @GOP
The GOP had a chance to obliterate the Democrat Party while it was down but dropped the ball. That’s on the GOP for not doing what its voters wanted.
Some say GOP failures were intentional.
how sad that with all those advantages they are not cleaning up. The Republican Senate has really screwed up. But they did it on purpose.

And a clueless RNC and do nothing RINOs will waste that opportunity

ONLY Republicans could, and will, F this up

Yep, stealing defeat from the jaws of victory. The GOP could be sailing to easy wins this November if they only supported Trump and respected their voters for a change. Instead, Democrats now have a chance of making it totally impossible for Trump to get anything done his last two years in office. It didn’t have to be this way. Hopefully, Jennings is right.
