This is one reason why Pelosi protects incumbents even if they don't align with the bulk of the caucus. Seven term D incumbent Kurt Schrader (whole lost in the primary) may have had better luck holding the seat, which may be the seat that costs Ds the House — PolitiTweet.org

That's didn't take long. DeSantis overtakes Trump in new 2024 Poll Republican poll If Republicans clear the field for DeSantis, then he may defeat in the primary the unique threat to our democracy that is Donald Trump. https://t.co/UYIn96wBQw — PolitiTweet.org

Influence of campaign donations on lack of crypto regulation may be biggest example of politicians getting bought off by donors yet It's an area desperately needing oversight, yet there is none. They got away w/ it because it is confusing This deserves investigative reporting — PolitiTweet.org

Technically this would be very easy to do. 5 Rs + all Ds and it's done. — PolitiTweet.org

The surprisingly bad inflation data last month & the surprisingly good inflation data this week reminds us that NOBODY has any idea where inflation is going in the short term. That won't stop the "experts" from rambling on w/ predictions but take it all with a grain of salt — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

If the Rs win the House (which is NOT certain) it will be by a small margin. If so, it would be amazing if a moderate group of Rs would put forth a candidate for Speaker that all Ds agree to support provided there was an agreement in place about how the House was to be managed — PolitiTweet.org

Based on the results this week, @RepSeanMaloney @spmaloney is a hero. — PolitiTweet.org

@BenBernatz My comment had nothing to do with polls. Most first term presidents have low approval ratings at midterm. Clinton and Obama each did. Besides, I said his "policies" are popular. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Last night proved that President Biden's policies are a lot more popular than people thought! — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Doesn't seems like much of a contagion risk - it feels like it has zero impact to the economy at any level. This underscores a point, the only thing that really matters in finance of the Fed, the dollar and the large US Banks. I would not bet on that changing in our lifetime. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Last night was obviously a big win for @JoeBiden, @SpeakerPelosi, @dccc, etc, etc.... BUT is was also a big win for Biden's most trusted advisor @RonaldKlain @WHCOS — PolitiTweet.org

@matsigh @jaredpolis Well, the CO senate race was considered competitive and the FL one wasn't. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Btw, @jaredpolis 20 point win in purple CO is as significant as DeSantis' 20 point win in Florida. — PolitiTweet.org

There is strong evidence that the Democratic operative class - young, college educated, urban, focused on progressive media - consistently crafts a message that is out of touch with voters. Could be the core problem for the party. https://t.co/nxVkMtgCZg — PolitiTweet.org

@jonneiderbach @0zgurlukcu Climate risk is existential but it has to be addressed in way that ensures a smart energy transition without disruption in energy markets, energy independence or consumer expenses skyrocketing. There is no support for climate policy that increases consumers energy cost. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

People should pay attention to @jaredpolis - he handled covid better than any governor in America and he is far outpacing other Dems in Colorado. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

I would agree with @amyklobuchar as she is one of a handful of Democratic leaders that every candidate wants to campaign with this midterm cycle. You can send her to blue states or red states and she helps the candidates. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

People love to make election predictions based on polls & random data points they deem important Just ignore them Polls have gotten worse each election cycle - we are largely running blind - and most of the data points people cite are truly meaningless All you can do is vote — PolitiTweet.org

@Nico_aliaga Um, did you read my tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

@jonneiderbach We just spent a historic amount on infrastructure, climate, reshoring etc. I wouldn't expect big new spending programs for a while - the bigger risk to struggling Americans in inflation and a recession. not a lack of more spending programs — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Let's be honest about why we have inflation: Reason 1: we ran the economy too hot with Trump's unpaid for tax cuts + too much unpaid for covid stimulus + Fed kept rates too low & QE on for too long Reason 2: lingering supply chain issues from shutting down economy That's it! — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

@jonneiderbach Right now it's probably better to raise taxes on the rich and use the money to reduce the deficit. Tax increases used for deficit reduction will be de-inflationary and lead to lower rates. High rates and inflation crush low income Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

One number that is growing rapidly with rate increases is the U.S. government's interest payments on its debt. This will put pressure on the deficit and limit the government's flexibility. Clearly, this is no time for more unpaid for tax cuts or spending programs. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

In the last several election cycles democratic donors have funded ~$1 billion into candidates that while appealing, actually never had a chance. This $ could have made a big difference at the state level flipping legislative seats that would have impacted redistricting this cycle — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

He's right - and congressional Ds haven't leaned into the economic story enough. Yes, inflation is bad BUT only the Fed can fix that & they will. Jobs & wages very strong AND the country is set for a great decade with new infrastructure and massive reshoring of entire industries — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

Harsh critique as to why Dems are losing Hispanic voters "Democrats are insufficiently patriotic; they are elitist in their cultural sensibilities & they are oblivious to the struggles and priorities of working people" Dems can't dismiss these criticisms https://t.co/yBJTAG8Nvg — PolitiTweet.org

The reversing of easy monetary policy will likely have a greater negative impact on the world than the benefits of the easy monetary policy did in the first place. A painful reminder that you always need an economic plan. — PolitiTweet.org

John Delaney 🇺🇸 @JohnDelaney

The takeaway from today's announcement plus Powell's comments: - they are clearly committed and believe their resolve will be good long term (seems right), and - likelihood of a hard landing went up in not a small way. — PolitiTweet.org
