Before much more time will have passed as we stand in late June 2018,
there will be midterm elections in votes will be cast
to elect (or to reelect) new or sitting Congresspeople in both Houses.
In
2018, the U.S. Senate currently has 51
Republicans and 49 Democrats (including two independents) with their
necks on the chopping blocks. There are 35
seats up for grabs in that same Senate, of which 26 are currently held
by Democrats. That party will need to gain just 2 seats to take
control. Current thinking is that they may very well be
successful. (The House is more of a toss up, but could also see a
Democratic majority take over). Should that come to pass, only President Trump will likely stand as a wall against; political insanity, ideologues, elitists, Far Right Socialists and wide open borders. But, how is that even happening?
Much of the success that the Democrats
have seen fall into three areas; media control, the spreading of fear
and good old fashioned lying like there's no tomorrow. If a voter
were to actually drill down into the Left's platform, they would find
precious little to grab onto. Much of what they've talked about for
the past year and a half are about; 1) hating Trump, 2)... well, sorry,
that's about it.
On the Conservative side, however, there is a
virtual avalanche of accomplishments! Let's see; a charged up
economy, reduced unemployment across the racial and gender boards,
improved foreign relations, improved border security, the elimination
of ISIS as a credible threat and the leveling of international trade just to name just a
few....
One would think that such a record would stand the Republicans
in good stead for both the coming midterms and the 2020 elections.
That, however, would not be the case as the Nazi-like
propaganda machine of the Far Left, along with most of the media and the
bat shit crazy people like the Three Stooges pictured above preach in
the church of the insane to a very befuddled audience.
