“In a rational world, this wouldn’t be the cause for Democratic panic, quite the contrary. Democrats beat the odd. Ronald Reagan is the last president who pulled this off, the last time a president managed to lose only one of those governorships in the first year that he was in office, it was the great communicator himself, Ronald Reagan.”
—Rachel Maddow, 3 November 2021
Tuesday, Rachel Maddow made a very valid point.
Apparently, since the ’80s, every sitting president has lost New Jersey and Virginia governorship to the opposite party. Clinton lost to Republicans Bush lost the Democrats Obama lost the Republicans Trump lost the Democrats. Both New Jersey and Virginia.
The interesting thing is that Biden only lost one state to a Republican governorship, So why y’all freaking out???
