GOP could gain as many as 70 House seats in 2022

 DailyWire:

With the economy continuing to worsen, inflation at a record high, and gas prices soaring, Democrats are facing tough odds come the midterm elections — and even left-leaning CNN is acknowledging this.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a Republican, has predicted that Democrats could lose up to 70 seats in the House, along with another four in the Senate, swinging control of both chambers of Congress to the Republicans, The Washington Examiner reported.

“I think we’ll pick up between 25 and 70 seats in the House. We’ll probably pick up about four seats in the Senate,” Gingrich told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo last month.

The prediction is bold. It would be the largest seat-switch since 1948, and surpass the shellacking Democrats took in the 2010 midterm elections, with Democratic President Barack Obama at the helm and the Tea Party movement thriving.

CNN came out with a bleak analysis of Democrat odds, too.

“New data from Gallup suggests that the national political environment is arguably worse for Democrats than it was in 2010 — raising at least the possibility that the party suffers even larger losses than currently predicted,” CNN’s Editor-at-large Chris Cillizza wrote. “A glance at the Gallup data — which looks at presidential approval, congressional approval, satisfaction with the direction of the country and overall judgment of economic conditions — reveals that the environment that was measured in May looks a lot like it did at the end of the 2010 cycle.”

It is actually worse for Democrats than it was in the 2010 race where Obama got his shellacking.  It is not just Biden that is the problem.  The Democrat Congress really screwed up by thinking they had a mandate for a radical agenda.
