“There are 41 days until Election Day, and Republicans are throwing everything and the kitchen sink at their sinking political fortunes,” Punchbowl News reports.
”Over the past few weeks, the electoral climate for President Donald Trump and Republican leaders has worsened dramatically, according to lawmakers, aides and political advisers who see daily polling.”
”Gas prices are sky-high. Diesel sets a new record almost daily. Trump said at the United Nations Tuesday that the Iran war won’t end until ‘after the midterm elections.’ That’s a frightening prospect for GOP lawmakers who are now publicly calling for an end to the seven-month conflict.”
”Rep. Ashley Hinson, the GOP Senate candidate in Iowa, is demanding the House return to session to enact a ban on diesel exports. This won’t happen, but it shows a suddenly vulnerable Republican desperately scrambling for a message.”
