This could have been done 4 years ago if @AnnCoulter’s and @RyanGirdusky’s Chicken Friend @jeffsessions didn’t recuse at all and/or of he had reversed it once it became clearer that there was no collusion. “Career” hacks told Sessions to back off and he did.
Um, if the GOP were to pick up “only” 50 seats, they will have more seats than they ever had in raw numbers and the largest portion of House seats dating back to pre-1900s.
So… Dunno about 70 seats.
If the GOP picks up 35 seats they will beat their post-Great Depression high water mark of 247 seats in the 2014 elections. Point is the GOP is going into the midterms with a large number of seats (213) and therefore less available for pick ups.
Dems went into 2018 elections with 194 seats. Picked up 41 to end at 235.
GOP went in to 2010 with 179 seats; gained 63 to land at 242.
Dems went into 2006 with 201 seats; added 31 to land in the 230s.
GOP went into 1994 with 176 seats and picked up 54 seats to end at 230.
See results of NJ and NYC. Much closer than what anyone paid attention to and the results are this way despite CRT not being a hot button issue in NJ/NYC.
The problem in NJ for the GOPer is that no one gave him a chance, so plenty GOPers didn’t even bother to vote. The narrative of a win can create the win such as in VA. I have no numbers on the ground from NJ. Just observing how things are now.
Mark, we know that vaccine immunity crashes to 40-50 percent 6-8 months after taking it which is why boosters are needed. We don’t know that natural immunity drops this low even after 12 months. The latest CDC study includes people infected a half year ago and NI is still 89.6%.
Mark is a waste of time on this: I show him that in Oklahoma
A) vaccine immunity went from being 9 times better than natural immunity to only 2 times better, and
B) Natural Immunity in Oklahoma is in the high 90% range.
Yet he answers “operative word being better.”
The above data showing the vaccine working in the high 90% includes recently-vaccinated people because we know from other studies that after 6-8 months immunity crashes. Mark is a vaccine fanatic who refuses to accept the data of natural immunity’s relavance and durability.
I read the latest study by the CDC of the difference between natural immunity (NI) vs immunity through a vaccine. (ITV).
For starters, most news about this are blatant lies to just misleading. But I am not going to debunk it all. Ill present a few points. cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7…
First, the time frame of the study is 90 to 179 days after vaccination which is month 4 through 6 which is flawed because boosters are needed only at various points after this time frame, so what’s the news that the vaccines work at day 90-179? Show us numbers of post day 180.
Secondly, the numbers yelling how much better immunity through vaccine (ITV) is versus natural immunity (NI) are mostly marginal. For example, before Delta, 8.4% previously infected people tested positive again for Coronavirus versus only 1.6% among vaccinated people.
“We found that vaccinated people can contract and pass on infection within households, including to vaccinated household members," Dr Anika Singanayagam, co-lead author of the study, said.
“The study, which had 621 participants, found that of the 205 household contacts of people with Delta Covid-19 infection, 38% of household contacts who were unvaccinated went on to test positive, compared with 25% of vaccinated contacts.”
25% vs 38%
Study from Imperial College: VACCINATED people who were infected with COVID—19, infected 25% vaccinated household members and 38% unvaccinated members.
Basically: Vaccinated people can be infected; can spread it and the spread to unvaccinated isn’t much worse than to vaccinated.
