HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2018
- Every two years Americans use the U.S. midterm elections as a report card for the president. History shows ballot results reflect the president's popularity and polling numbers. But why is the semi-annual democratic process necessary? Global News Washington Bureau Chief Jackson Proskow explains the procedure's checks and balances.

4:20 Democrats lost "both the House?"
Who came here after the midterms
This was such a great explanation of the upcoming election!
It's really only one party - The capitalist corporate stooges party - and the rest of us that haven't had any transformative legislation pass since Social Security. This is all a game of good cop bad cop.
RED WAVE
😂
Should have been more clear for non Americans understanding.
Hell with the period blood wave..
Accurate, non biased forensic analysis of what's to come.
Those forecasting a blue wave were wrong in 2016 and they are wrong now. Why would anyone vote for higher taxes and less jobs ?
oh so bookmarking this comment for nov 7, cheers till then
Yes but talking about a "blue wave" spell false sense of security. I'm worried people will stay home thinking it's already in the bag
A little biased

Depend America vote Red !
한국어 해석좀
Birds of a feather. Nothing matters.
Can you vote for the opposite party of your affiliation in the midterms?
Yes. I recommend republican
Yeah its a free country
Let the sheep be sheep ........Allah will always exist no matter what
dems held the senate 2010
No, they lost the House in 2010, but they didn't lose the Senate until 2014.

Why Am I watching it? I live in Mexico lmao
Same, but democrats acaban de ganar en la casa y creo que eso nos beneficia como mexicanos

Learning important things about other countries will always be beneficial, maybe not now but sometime in the future.
Luis why nos beneficia?
This is a Canadian news channel lol pretty much everyone here doesn’t live in the US

BLUE WAVE
@Aphobias PolemosThe REPUBLICANS are IN the TOILET that you SHAT OUT
Ya, no. Do your research because you haven’t been paying attention with Kavanaugh and it’s backfiring on dems
With all these violence and ignorant protests ? Give me a break !
With raising for everybody ? You must be joking.
#VOTERED!
vote red
Fake news
The more the democrats talk up how easy it is for them to get the seats the greater the tearful videos when it doesn't happen. Let them #bluewave tags flow!!
Chris -0 well the election came and went, so any more political predictions to make?
Do not get complacent. Get everybody you know to register and vote Democratic. Vote blue.
Please tell me what the Democrats ever do for the American people,they lie,cheat and steal oh yes and worry about the illegals not the American people and this country Trump2020
Can't spell hatred without red hat. -Anonymous
Yes, The Red Wave!!
#MollyTibbtts
Look at all the #Redwave NPCs!
A BIG RED TSUNAMI
Red wave
Colleen Deaton, dream on...
One can dream. Lol
That is delusional as midterms favour the opposition party to the one controlling the White House.
Alabama had a Dem senator in 2017, and strong GOP strongholds are becoming competitive.
Say goodbye to the House, while Senate will probably stay as 51-49 or 50-50, with Repub control (which is good since Dems got a massive disadvantage).
where?
I hope not. The country is run by a racist bigot who should have never been elected and is now hated by everyone by his most rabid fans. God I hope it flips
red wave b****
I don't care if the wave is blue or red, either way, we drown!
3 days, 45 likes? Blue wave?
A BIG RED TSUNAMI
kdur 😂 nooooope!
Lar M yeh I really don't think many people will vote red. Trumps approval rating is rock bottom, and his party is pretty hated atm
Ruben 😂😂
😂😂😂🎉MAGA🎉🤗🤗🇺🇸
kdur if you're honestly thinking you're making America great, then keep going. If you're right, I'm happy because people have a good life. If I'm right, America is about to slide down quite abit from being the #1 country in the world
pls USA, don't give us a blue wave....
Its terrifying we have a red wave right now.
Please DONT give a blue wave? The world leaders are openly laughing at the American president. Major climate control legislation is being pulled out of. People are most certainly not happy. There will definitely be a blue wave
.......2016 all over again....!!! MAGA....2018...!!
Yeah nice unbiased forecast... #REDWAVE

Yes, the approval rating for Mr Trump is just under 50% and now people are calling the midterms the blue ripple

U.S. politics is very flawed
Democrats don't forget to vote on Nov 7. Make sure to show up and support.
you got trumped the day after the election? You mean you want to win just because the people who weren't for you didn't have their voice heard? Classy
There’s no such thing as a red wave. Go to the beach and look at the waves. They’re blue
VOTE REPUBLICAN IN THE UPCOMING MIDTERMS!
And in this midterm too!
I'm not old enough to vote but I would vote blue 😀
When you're old enough you will have a lot more sense!
I'm 17 but I will vote Red when I'm 18 :)
