After getting the “bad” news about the possibility of a GOP win in two weeks, notice how Colbert tries to “save” the segment by pivoting to “GOP voter suppression.”

But *Republicans* are the ones trying to generate “fear” ?

Ok, got it…

Via The Hill.

“Pod Save America” hosts and ex-Obama aides Jon Lovett, Tommy Vietor and Jon Favreau on Tuesday downplayed the prospect of a Democratic blue wave in the 2018 midterms while making an appearance on Stephen Colbert’s CBS show.

On the prospects of a Democratic takeover of the House, Vietor said the prospects have “always been 50-50” and Lovett warned their party “lost everything two years ago” and “can lose everything again” during an appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

The trio’s caution on Democratic overconfidence comes as polls have tightened in recent weeks leading up to a pivotal election that could see the highest midterms turnout in decades if surges in voter registration and high early voting tallies are accurate indicators.

“I heard a lot of talk about the blue wave. I heard a lot of talk about blue wave,” Colbert said.

“Not from us,” Lovett, a former Obama speechwriter responded….

“How many times are we going to do this?” exclaimed Lovett. “It doesn’t matter what the early votes look like. It doesn’t matter what the polls look like. We can lose everything. We lost everything two years ago! We can lose everything again! Oh, my God!”….

    So I was channel surfing a few days back, late at night, before my standard Perry Mason re-run watch on METV, ok? As soon as I hit the CBS channel, there was Colbert and the first and only word out of his mouth was “Trump”…before I immediately changed the channel.

    So here’s ‘the thing’ for me…it’s not the host(Colbert/Kimmel) or panels(The View) that concern me, it’s the studio audience…and their mass hysteria about Trump.
