“I don’t think the response in this district can be, ‘Donald Trump is a terrible president, and you should hate him, and all these people who voted for him are stupid’,” said Rich Wilkins, a Democratic state committee member from the area. “If that’s our response, we will lose. We might have a lot of excited activists. But that’s not gonna win this seat.”

Trump doesn't want people to vote for Strange. He robo called yesterday and never mentioned any name.
Trump seized the opportunity to get on the GOP establishment's rally that he knew would be televised to everyone and shown on CNN.
They wont do that for his rally's the petty small pricks. But he wanted to get on national TV and chastise NFL, the failure to push health care, and to bash Rocket man.
Nothing makes him more happier that everyone is voting for the Pro Trump candidate.

Has anyone notices the further behind in the Polls Strange gets the more GOP establishment critters come out against the Obamacare repeal.

Trump was supposed to have a deal where he was going to put all of this America first shit behind and just play along with the establishment.

He is but we're not. Trump is showing the establishment.

"Look you drumsticks, I'm just one guy, I can play your game. But you'll have to deal with THEM for now on!"

This movement doesn't end with Trump.

The Democrats have a very poor messaging apparatus. They allow right wing propaganda to win time and time again.

People here think Democrats are the party of free trade, the party of Wall St., the party of runaway spending.

The problem isn't lack of ideas--it's lack of an ability to get those ideas across to people.

Enlighten me again on how me paying 6k a year for a fine because I can't afford the $18K a year premium while Illegal Aliens and Refugees get free Cadillac health care and never see one single bill.

Lol. You write for the Rachel Maddow show?

Even a Democrat can be right once in a while.

"all these people"
The friend of my enemy is my enemy.

Exhibit A for propaganda working.

Democrats have officially become the party that publicly hates/opposes/shits on the National Anthem and American Flag.

I can't wait for 2018 and 2020.

It's the party of anyone with an IQ over 100?


Tatupu! What's up baby? You a big NFL fan?

Hopefully. I've been hoping for this since Trump won the election. It's not too late for the DNC to get its head out of its ass and win the midterms, but it's getting close.
11   joeyjojojunior   2017 Sep 25, 10:17am  

Seriously--if the Rep's don't control the Senate after 2018, it will be a failure of monumental proportions.

Why don't you wager on control of the House? That's closer to 50/50

Done. You want to do that bet? $1000?

Trump basically Virtue Signaled on Mitch McConnel's dime and you guys can't appreciate the Irony.
He blew a Dog whistle that only Trump supporters heard, and the GOP establishment is tone deaf to.
He used Luther's rally as an opportunity to promote his agenda not Strange's political objectives.

I'm trying to figure out if the Rams are a good team or not. To be honest I'm more of an NBA fan (Lakers and Warriors for life).

See? This is all I've been saying. Trump is clearly out maneuvering the Democrats despite 100% support from the liberal MSM. It's like Trajan vs the Parthians. Outnumbered, in hostile territory, but he continues to lead them into mistake after mistake due to his opponents willingness to over commit and make stupid movies.

This latest one though is a spectacular miscalculation by the left.

If that were the case, why does Trump's approval rating continued to sink ever since being elected. He's hovering around 40% mostly.

If he was so clearly outmaneuvering the Dems, wouldn't his approval be above 50% at least?

What were his ratings before he won the presidency?

Like what ideas? Trans rights? More immigration (sanctuary states)? More rights for banks?

Right now they can’t win against Trump. That’s how much they suck.

@Herc—

Ideas such as higher taxes on the wealthy, higher taxes on unearned income, healthcare for everyone, tax on pollution, regulation of wall st., campaign finance reform, antitrust laws, inheritance tax.

Shalll I continue?
