Why do Democrats act like the midterms mean Trump will loose when Obama lost his midterms worse than Trump did?

In 2018 the Republicans lost 42 House seats to the Democrats. That might seem bad but in 2010 the Democrats lost 64 seats to the Republicans! So why are people, even Republicans, acting like the midterms mean Trump can't win in 2020?

    Could be because Democrats are running against Chump, the guy who lost the popular vote to the Benghazi Butcher even with the never Hillary crowd and butthurt Bernie supporters staying home or voting for anyone else.

    And Mueller delayed his report to benefit dems. He knew he had nothing except fat aas Nadler begging Cohen for some of his KFC chicken.

    People who never cared about politics began to take notice by about 2010 or so.

    We don't like special treatment of ANY subgroup of person.

    And we know, ZERO nations ignore their borders.

    The 2018 midterms had the largest turn out in history especially with young, women, and minority voters. That is bad news for Trump.

    They only know what they are told to think. We are not trying to reason with rational people when bringing up these issues. They are more akin to a low-brow sport fan; intellectual honesty and civil behavior is not in their mindset. They are not told how to act in any other way than polarized and severely critical, unfairly critical of Trump.

    But I agree with you, it looks good for the Republicans if their exodus from office doesn't become too harmful. It sounds like some of them are wanting out because it got difficult for them. This means to me that there are Republicans who don't have a heart for the country. They could try to make things right, resist the evil that has become the Democratic Party.

    Midterms have a very different dynamic than Presidential election years.

    Trump was actually way below average. Usually the party with the President loses midterms. They aren't pissed and don't turn out to vote.
