Come Tuesday, what’s being touted as the most significant midterm election in US history is set to unfold.

Historically, midterms have come to constitute a referendum on how a president is tracking, with protest votes often registered in a rejection of those in power. 

But it seems the subversive status quo here could be set to change, with the predicted tidal wave of anti-Trump, Democrat support looking unlikely to materialise.

“ What’s happening here right now is becoming very interesting,” says James Morrow, Opinion Editor at The Daily Telegraph.

“Donald Trump has become such a reviled character among the left, the progressives and the so-called mainstream media. They loathe Trump, they’ve tried to set this up as sending Trump a message.”

“But it doesn’t look like there’s going to be a big swing against Trump or the Republicans. This means the whole establishment, the political media class, which hates Trump, could well be cruising for a huge defeat around their claims about how awful Trump is and how much everybody hates Trump.”
