6. Not so much a troll as something of a senate fetishist

They can’t go a day without posting a senate prediction. At this point in the cycle it’s usually just a list of the current races, but at other times they want to start picking 2026 candidates for presumed retirements. It’s like the baseball fan who actually knows/cares that the player has the best batting average for seventh inning pinch hit at bats against lefty relievers in afternoon double-header games that replaced earlier rainouts.

They often speculate on odd race combinations that are pretty far-fetched. I’m sure they didn’t realize that they just predicted an apparently healthy stroke victim’s impending death.
