    Libs of TikTok is the username of various American anti-LGBTQ and far-right social-media accounts operated by Chaya Raichik – Wikipedia

    Just a PSA that it’s a creepy source, so don’t trust it much.

      It does explain the weird way that the question answers itself at the end without its author seemingly realising it. There aren’t the numbers to make it mathematically plausible to shift further right if you’re already at that extreme.

    High because it’s difficult to get more people into the cult when there are already so many of them.

      Actually, his cult has shrunk. By a lot. It’s been some popcorn-munching fun as a cult survivor.

      … well, in a disaster-movie way, and I hate living in the disaster movie. But nodding and going, “Yep. Yep, you found out your life is a lie. Aaaand there’re the tears, the mental breakdown. Just let it all out, honey.”

    My friend said this pattern has happened to every single US president ever except J bush (they lost the midterm elections to the opposing party on their second term). Is there data and facts on it?

        To be fair, most presidents don’t strap oil prices to a rocket and send them into fuckin orbit.

        Not sure if you’re joking? Those elections didn’t work out for the president’s party

            Our friend provided this link: https://history.house.gov/Institution/Majority-Changes/Majority-Changes/

            I think the intro answers it:

            the House has changed majorities in a midterm election a little more than one-third of the time. But of the total 19 House majority changes in that time span, including presidential and midterm election years, more than three-quarters have occurred during a midterm.
