Election 2018: Blue Wave Rising or Falling?



Election 2018: Blue Wave Rising or Falling? Ann Coulter had every right to berate the state of Virginia, then analyze what turned the Old Dominion a deeper shade of blue. Breitbart published an article about the Democratic scheme to turn Virginia blue, which had already happened in California. The biggest reason that these once ruby-red bastions have turned Democratic is illegal immigration. Still, I think Virginia has a chance to come back to the red-state fold. After all, the voters threw out House Majority Leader Eric Cantor in an unparalleled primary vote in 2014. The intense media coverage of all the illegal alien minors swarming along the southern border exposed to everybody that all the talk about amnesty and pathways to citizenship for young illegals was inducing more illegals to come to the border.
Ann Coulter blames immigration solely for the sad election results for Virginia's election. I believe that Barack Obama’s eight years of despotic anti-constitutional statism expanded the federal bureaucracies and further entrenched the power of the deep state. Those bureaucrats have now overwhelmed Northern Virginia, and as goes NoVA so goes the rest of the state. My response to that is that many of the Republican Red State conservative voters throughout the state were not turned on or excited about the Republican nominee, either. Virginia-based activists told me that they were more geared up against Ralph than supporting Ed Gillespie. Does the Virginia blue wave mean that an Election 2018 Democratic wave will stymie President Trump by taking over the House and the US Senate? Well, it depends. The truth is Democrats are giving more Republican voters a reason to turn out in larger numbers, and the Democrats are giving their own base more reasons not to turn out. The Democratic Party is not only losing money through there once reliable funding source in the labor unions, but we can be assured that by the end of the Supreme Court term in June 2018, their coerced dues through forced membership in labor unions is going to be struck down once and for all. So that's going to be more money that labor unions lose, which means less money for Democratic candidates and causes. The key test for this projected outcome will be Missouri, in which enraged labor union activists collected enough signatures for a referendum next year to block the implementation of the right-to-work policy, which passed in February of this year. Other major institutions which have propped up the Left and funded the Democratic Party are facing total collapse. Hollywood had one of its worst years in modern entertainment history. The projected revenue will fall well below box office receipts in 2002. And as more scandals emerge exposing the corrupt perverse behavior of the Hollywood elites, more people are going to be staying away from the movie theaters, and going to YouTube to watch videos from conservative and liberty-minded activists and entertainers. More people are going to be learning about constitutional rule limited government and individual liberty. Not only that but we see also with the press and television, that the Me Too scandals which have engulfed Hollywood producers are also taking down major press agents, cultural Guardians so to speak who continue to promote liberal ideologies at the expense of the American people. They're going out of business, they have no money, and there goes the Democratic Party’s easy money.

Let's talk about the explosive revelations of sexual abuse, assault, and depravity among the “pro-woman” Democrats. These scandals are engulfing the Democratic Party in much larger numbers than the smaller number of perverts and pedophiles that have been exposed among Republicans. FYI, Republicans either admit wrongdoing and step down or they get forced out by their leadership. In contrast, the Democratic Party, which is so out of touch with working day Americans, stand as long as possible with their perverts despite mounting pressure, as they think that the liberal media will protect them and weather out the media storms. Those days are over. US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand denounced former President Bill Clinton, and the growing number of Democratic leaders realize that they have to do something. There are more reasons for conservatives to take heart for Election 2018. Four years ago, Republicans weren't popular, but the Democrats were in such disarray, and their liberal base so disaffected, but with the conservative grassroots there was such energy to change the leadership and the representation in Congress. Election 2014 witnessed another epic sweep of seats in Congress. Democrats face a daunting map in 2018, and Republicans are actually more galvanized to vote since unpopular incumbents have dropped out. Republicans are working on substantial tax reform—and call me naively optimistic, but I think they will achieve this victory. Economic indicators suggest growing prosperity in 2018, which will further assist Republicans heading into mid-terms. Red states are energized not just because of previous victories, but ruling majorities have enacted key reforms. So even if there isn't a national wave, there will be enough support in key states that Republicans will gain in the US Senate and hold seats in the House.

Why does an aura of doom surround the GOP, though, despite the ominous signs for the Democrats? The media is depicting a rupturing Republican Party because of Trump. Notice the inordinate attention on retiring US Senator Jeff flake's hot mic comments. But who cares about the recriminations of the dying press and the exposed political establishment? Despite their pleas, conservatives want the Republican Party to be the party of Trump, Bannon, and Roy Moore. GOP grassroots want men and women in elected office who fight back, who keep their promises, and pay attention to the basic needs of the Working Man on Main Street. Conservatives, take a deep breath. Election 2018 is going to be spectacular. And if there are Republicans who lose their seats in Congress or around the country, it will be because they have frustrated the MAGA agenda, and frankly we don't need those kinds of representatives in Washington anymore.
