Warnings — or, in some cases, celebrations — that the Democrats are on the verge of a disastrous collapse have been growing more frequent recently. Since the election, Rush Limbaugh has been hammering the point that the campaign has only continued — and extended the trend set in 2010, when Democrats lost the House. Since then, Democrats have lost 1200 national and statewide seats. And earlier this week, Stewart Lawrence, writing in the Daily Caller, and picking up on a study by the centrist “Third Way” think tank, noted that the Democrats are now almost exclusively a coastal party, with a couple of lone interior outposts such as Chicago and Minneapolis. According to the study, while Hillary Clinton beat Trump in California, New York and Massachusetts by 30%, Trump won the rest of the states by 52-48%. Some 32 state legislatures are in Republican hands, but in only five states do Democrats control both houses of the legislature and the governor’s mansion. And, as many (including Lawrence) note, in 2018 the Democrats must defend 10 U.S. Senate seats in states that Trump won. Meanwhile, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, once thought dead in the water, won re-election in 2016, as did John McCain in Arizona, despite the fact that many conservatives, sick of his antics, voted for the Democrat. If the left can’t win these seats — the most low-hanging of fruit — where can they win? The fact is, although we now know the polls were horribly wrong, Trump’s victory was quite small compared to what it might have been.

Probably when the MSM flipped the Republicans to Red and the Democrats to Blue just after Reagan.
And we didn’t even lift a whimper.
I get this and believe it, but the most radical leftists are communists at heart. It didn’t take all that many Nazis or Bolsheviks to overturn governments. That is what I’m worried about. I’m reading Vox Day’s book, SJWs Always Lie and the comparisons between them and Soviet Communists is striking.
Have you read “I Chose Freedom” by Victor Kravchenko? His description of life in USSR is a foreshadowing, I believe, of the U.S. under leftist rule.
It’s a photo shop. She is going to be playing Bannon on SNL. Be sure not to tune in.
“It” looks like Steve Bannon.
> I heard that the political color code was deliberately switched up by the media in the 2000 election.
I can confirm. The first Red/Blue divide map I saw after the 2000 election was Republicans=blue. Very quickly thereafter, the color code was switched and the rest is history.
Leftists (the actual fascists in the USA) are telling liberals how to think. And libs are too dumb not to follow.
The Dems need to be forced by the Trump admin to define their politics. They will fold like a wooden beach chair left in the rain. They can’t say what they really are now. A bunch of cows picking their way down a rocky path to totalitarianism because the cow in front of them is going that way. Led by totalitarian despots who want to control the world using any means possible, but when all you see is the cow’s ass in front of you...
“In short, the fake news media is missing a much larger story: that the Democrats are teetering on the edge of an abyss that could see them utterly wiped out in 2018 and 2020.”
Actually, a fairly likely result for 2018 if the Dems and their anarchist allies keep up with the riots, destruction, fires and physical attacks on people they disagree with. Not to mention, the Dems are on the verge of appointing an avowed anti-white party leadership that will vastly accelerate the Dem white flight.
It’s a photoshopped pic Rosie tweeted trying to get an SNL gig as Steve Bannon
Actually it’s a photoshop of her face laid unto Steve Bannon’s face. 8>)
That’s because t’s a photoshop of her face laid unto Steve Bannon’s face, just is case you were not aware of that. 8>)
All of your list voted for Trump’s nominees that is critical.
Your problem is that it is difficult for conservatives to get elected to state-wide offices.
Those are amazing. Thanks for sharing.
- From the Clinton Archipelago :(
Great maps, thanks for posting.
Rosie has offered to play Steve Bannon on SNL (get her 15 minutes of fame), so this is part of that self-promotion.
I wish I could believe this. However, I remember 8 years ago when we were going to be the permanent minority. It seems that both parties keep taking turns screwing things up.
Although, the Dems do seem to be a lot more unhinged this time.
“They are the ‘Party of Stupid’...and this is going to make our job easier for 2018 when we take the rest of them out...”
While I agree with you about the RATs, the sorry fact of the matter is that the Republcans, for the most part, are also another Party of Stuipid. Plus all of them are trying to figure out how to continue to get “juiced” by their “benefactors” on “K” Street. With President Trump moving at warp speed, these worthless turds, are all getting hernias having to run to keep up with him. We need to use 2018 to “off” the worst of the RINOs running in the Senate for re-election. At least four of five of them should be turned out at the same time we are taking a dozen or more seats from the RAT, because in 2020, the tables will again be turned and the Pubbies will have the majority seeking re-election. 2018 is pivotal!
That happened in Utah
Oh, ok.
Punked!
The Photoshop improved her.
Here is the history of colors identifying the national parties. It’s confused up to the 2000 election and since then they have been pretty much set. I wish it was flipped but that is what we have today.
