Looks like it’s the midterm slogan for the GOP:



Good tactic or bad tactic? Fear sells (I’ve been in security sales, nothing gets the checkbook open like fear).

I think it will resonate with the base but that’s not what the Rs need.

Doesn’t matter, it’s the only tactic they have left.  

What else are they going to run on?  Ideas?  Lol

They can no longer sell immigration reform, tax cuts, fiscal responsibility, free trade, family values, or anything resembling traditional conservatism.  Even pro-life and pro-gun positions aren’t winning anymore.

All that remains is pure nihilism.  “We must destroy the other side before they destroy us.”

It’s sick and why it’s going to get much worse before it gets better.

Sad!

The politics of it matter. This is the show. The main event is weeks away!

I assume they will push the economy, unemployment, tax cuts, the treatment of Kavanaugh and the angry socialist mob. That’s probably their strongest hand between now and November 6th, although there is still time to for something else to take over the news cycle.

What will the democrats platform be ?  They've given healthcare away, they hate lower taxes, blanket citizenship for illegals ?  The economy is strong so they can't really attack that (they will anyway making it a class issue). They can sell SCOTUS seats, and not having Trump as president running the show if they can regain Congress. 

One of the battlefields is immigration.  One side is allegedly racist because they want to know who's in the country, and are people getting in legally. The other side is looking for a bigger voting base.

I didn't say it was realistic.

Closer to sci fi would be a more accurate description.  Too much money involved for it to be anything more than petty, my side is great your side sucks, who's gonna hire me to help them  pillage the system after I get out.

Until actual campaign finance tales place it'll just be a slow slide further down the hole.

Please direct us to a Democrat who has called for blanket citizenship for illegals. Also, it's hard to get a bigger voting base of immigrants if you don't know they're here, so Democrats really do want to know who's in the country. Because duh. Votes.

As far as the economy is concerned, it was strong in 2016 and Donald Trump ran on it anyway by, wait for it . . . making it a class issue.

In the era of estrogen riddled, reactionary males who can't control any situation long enough to get laid with full compliance, these kinds of antics will allow you to let someone die of dehydration in your jail and get a pardon.  You also get to become a celebrity to weak minds who long for autocratic leadership and heavy-handed bullshit -- probably a prominent federal appointment, too.  A Fox News personality at the worst.  The trick is to be as shitty as possible because there's always someone out there capable of stealing the attention by being shittier than you.  When you go the shitty route you have to fully commit and optimize your shittiness.

The black sheep side of my family had ties to Union county, AR. This is not surprising.

The mental gymnastics in here. Good god. 

Woman dresses to go riot. Woman gets punched in riot. Blame the man. 

So, what you're saying is, if she's dressed slutty, she wants it? 

Should we blame the man if he raped her?

 

The point is, and bear with me, because I know this might seem strange, but the person doing the punching is responsible for his actions. 

But, you know, she was totally dressed for it.
