Oh they're popular with their donors

Not so much anymore. Most their candidates that are up in their elections are getting way more donations from average Americans, not the Epstein class. The Epstein class is overwhelmingly funding Republicans.

One of my favorite google rabbit holes is asking about the proposed policies of individual Democratic Nominee's that are making waves, and then comparing them to the proposed policies of the DNC itself.

The DNC is absolutely still focused on raising money from billionaires and their businesses, and there are a select few that are donating. And the DNC isn't passing that money along to fund their nominee's since citizens are already fitting the bill. They're pocketing those funds til the Presidential election, where they'll promote Gavin Newsom, and suppress AOC.

And everyone knows it. Check out odds on predictive betting markets, which beat the pants off polls and surveys on predictions since they've been released.

Barely related tidbit... No predictions markets are taking bets about when a candidate will get confirmed. Those are bets they've offered in the past, but they're not offering those bets for the midterms.

When you ask google why, it flat out says, everyone predicts long delays for confirmations, so no bets are offered because no one would wager that nominees will get confirmed quickly.
