My view is we are watching them in their last throes.

Certainly hope you are correct. But what do you propose if you are not?

I ask because by all accounts Hillary won the popular vote in 2016 by more than a couple of million votes. The left has the Church, the Education system and the "MSM".

Arguably, it appears we have a single effective political leader - who the smart money bet against - and we got him by the slimmest of margins. Will we be so lucky the next time?

So it doesn't appear to me the left is in it's last throes; rather that it could be poised for a final assault.

You can call me a defeatist, but can you seriously tell me you do not discern a trend that threatens our nation?

My plan: we better come out at the federal level swinging with everything we still have a chance. The R's better put their petty differences aside and begin to act as a block and support Trump; the procedural handcuffs should be removed so that they can perform their sworn duties.

Subtract LA County ad Cook County. IL and she loses the popular vote.

Subtract 4 of the 5 Boroughs of NYC that went for her and Trump wins by several millions of votes.

Never forget the Electoral College was made part of the Constitution for the express reason to prevent highly populated areas from ruling over everyone else. Would you advocate signing onto a Constitution where NYC ruled over the entirety of the United States? No, you wouldn’t and neither did the Americans at the founding. The EC was written to get agreement so that the whole country would feel they could participate, not just NYC at the time which was the largest in population.

As to other questions, conservatives are winning. But the winning takes work. The rally in MN, all the crowd had to commit, to prepare, to travel, to participate. The news generated in the leftist media complex could not be ignored. It took work but conservatives won the day. A liberal named Duetsch was forced to acknowledge Trump’s support and called for them to be branded as Nazi guards and dealt with as such. That drew attention to the Trump camp. It made the attention turn away from their fabricated outrage to the positive rally in MN. If conservatives dominate the news cycle, they win.

They are already in their final assault leading to their final throes. The final assault is their final throes. They have nothing left and are showing Americans just how dangerous and unhinged they truly are. Their mask is coming off. Americans can see clearly what these people are. That drives Americans away from them. That is winning.

You seem to be concerned they have a loud voice. I would be concerned if that loud voice was focused and reasonable, why? Because the electorate is split in three, 31% democrat, 28% republican, 40% independent. The independents are the group that decides. If the independents see and hear loud but focused and reasonable voices of democrats, they will side with democrats. But what they see are monsters that cannot be tolerated.
