Jobs Not Mobs
Political Optics ^ | 10.19.2018

As President Trump addressed another enthusiastic gathering of supporters leading up to the midterms, he drove a nail into the coffin that was the democrats dreams of a resurgence this cycle.

To be fair, the Democrats pretty much engaged in a collective Budd Dwyer moment with their behavior in the Kavanaugh affair, when it came to the midterms, ending any chance at retaking the house.

Trump however, with a few simple words, just ensured that, not only would the the GOP hold the house, but they almost certainly will gain seats. With a few simple words, Trump not only argued for the nationalization of the mid term elections, but also provided the reasoning to support him in that nationalization.

I think honestly Trumps 6 words just ensured the GOP house gains...

It is a great tagline, and credit goes to Scott Adams (”Dilbert”) who came up with it a week ago and shortly after he speculated on his podcast why no one was using it on the day of the Montana rally Trump did, for the first time.

He’s a winner of few words.

But it would be a very good time for groups like Proud Boys to stand down. Any fracas they get into will be portrayed as 1) their doing and 2) the result of Trump’s and the GOP’sracist dog whistles.

Man, don't feed the gator and don't push your friend into the gator pit, hopin' he will eat you last. F'em.

The Proud Boys do not cause the problems, and your snowflake approach is so "SAD".

Stand and salute,{or should we kneel and appease?}.

Think of it a just good strategy. Low profile *for 3 weeks* leaves the attention on the MOBS and their behavior.

It’s not backing down, it’s setting *them* up.

I'm all for banging them from behind, but this feels like surrender.

Since I'm not a member of the 'Proud Boys' we'll have to see what they do, I will continue to carry and if my 'life is threatened' well, PA is a 'Castle' state.

Democrats don’t have jobs, they have entitlements. Used to be called welfare. Before that charity. Before that begging. Before that parasitism. :-)

It is not important how we view them. The media will portray them as if they were the SA and Trump as Hitler. No matter the Antifa reality. It’s called situational awareness.

Sounds like a winning strategy to me. We can worry about looking like we aren't surrendering later.
