I read so many pieces in political media this week (axios, punchbowl, wash post, etc) about how dems were about to be obliterated. Itโs almost like they were all being fed the same narrative.

The GOP is much better at messaging and propaganda. Much, much better than Dems. The press repeats what itโs barraged with and what seems plausible. And what seems plausible to them is what they are barraged with โ a never-ending circle.
The point of all that GOP agitprop was to suppress Dem voter turnout by portraying Republican victory as inevitable. It didnโt work because many Dems were absolutely enraged about Dobbs, as they should be. Sans Dobbs, the Repubs wouldโve captured the Senate and House easily โ wouldโve been a rout.
