House Republicans are already feeling confident of taking back the majority in 2022, and some key Democrats are focused on the warning signs.
Both centrist and liberal Democrats are concerned that if Speaker Nancy Pelosi drags the party too far left, it will be doomed to defeat.
“You know, 2022 is already looking like a pretty formidable challenge for reelection,” said California Rep. Scott Peters, the vice chairman for policy for the New Democrat Coalition.
In a discussion about party politics with Simon Rosenberg of the liberal think tank NDN, Peters echoed other top Democrats who said that the GOP had their number in the 2020 election when they should have

They should be very afraid. They have let dotty Nancy and nasty Chuck and the likes of Jamie Raskin and Eric Swalwell to drive them into a ditch. A very ridiculous ditch at that. This unpeachment farce is already costing them. House managers have been shown to have manipulated and even fabricated their “evidence”. They’d be thrown out of any court in our country. Yet here they are. All beause of hatred for and fear of Donald John Trump.

Let me explain "getting caught with our pants down"
In 2020, the stage was set for a Bide win through widespread ballot stuffing, i.e main in ballots, relaxed id and signature requirements thanks to liberal judges, a complicit media determined to bury negative stories and run up Trump's negatives, non-stop polling showing double didget leads to suppress republican voters and the democrat destruction of the economy over covid, which they then pinned on Trump.
They were convinced that they would win it outright. Then Republicans turned out enmass on election day and in a handful of jurisdictions, counting had to stop in order to "find" enough votes for Biden.
They were caught with their pants down because they hadn't cheated enough. Now they had to do it out in the open and silence anyone who questions it.

First, they know that President Trump has 75 million ACTUAL votes.
Second, if the Republicans decide to point out these lies and manipulations directly to the voters in many House districts, in particular, it would be helpful.
Third, their "boogie-man" won't be on the ballot, and the party in power usually loses seats in the House and Senate.
Fourth, they've already pushed so far left that they won't be able to tact back in the hopes of fooling voters that they're really "moderates".

They are well down the tyranny road and they will continue down that road unless stopped by the citizens.

The flaw in this logic is an expectation that many of those 75,000,000 voters who voted for Trump will vote for Republicans. Many of us won’t. We’ll either write in our votes, or vote for MAGA or non-Republican (or Democrat) candidates.

One final try in 2022. If they steal that one with their crooked voting machines - then it's either permanent tyranny or time to take things back by other means.

Rep. Peters (D-CA) is right about one thing: "the vacuum of Republican political theory that's existing right now." Thanks, RINOs! Just when we need a principled and fierce opposition, these clowns are falling all over themselves to take down the man who did the best job of implementing true conservative principles. Thankfully, 2022 has a primary season too.

The Republicans may take back the majority? So? Those wusses could win all 435 seats and blow it. As usual, they will allow the criminal Rats to run the show and cower before the lying, so-called media every time one of them actually shows a sign of a backbone. Yeah, I'm disgusted with the entire lot of them.

An overriding gun control effort by the Democrats alone will most likely do the trick for the Republicans in the 2022 election, just as it did after the last big Democrat gun control push.

Don't get too confident. I cannot simply be counted on to show up and sweep Boehner/Kasich/Romney/Ryan types back into office. I will NOT be showing up to vote for guys like that anymore.

I’m looking forward to the next Republican phone call asking for money. Assuming they stay on the phone they are going to get an earful!

I wouldn't worry if I were a democrat. The republican party is busy committing suicide.
