Who knew "eating while conservative" was unconstitutional? ......and had all kinds
of "asterisked" protections nobody ever knew existed until Sara went to Lexington.

Forgive me for being skeptical but I think the proof will be in the pudding come November. We will see if these #walkaway types are actually a force or just a few fringe discontented.

I hope this is true, but I remain skeptical. Only the votes tell the story. Please note, that an open race klan, socialist, tyrant just one a seat in NY. The Cortez bitch won by popular, although a low turnout, vote. This is a message I pay most attention to.

There is tremendous inertia and delay and “flywheel effect” in public opinion and politics. Months worth.

It may be already too late for the fabled (and fantasized) “Giant Blue Wave” to happen now. Trump is simply making too much Plain Common Sense to any non-psychotic political thinkers.

The true nutz will never sway —they’d elect Hillary in a heartbeat, even now, and even after all the Krappe has oozed out and gotten published widely.

Nope. I think the Dems have cooked their own goose with all the insanity.

Let’s hope I’m right.

I agree with the others, we won't really know until the November elections give the "experts" a chance to reveal themselves while trying to cover their tracks. It's one of the more amusing aspects of American politics.

But a lot of us have been commenting on the drastic leftward careen of the Democrats for some time. One of the many erroneous assumptions of identity politics is that once you've built a coalition of the Oppressed you don't really need what is generally described as the moderate middle. This is fine if you're organizing a campus demonstration but it isn't working in national politics, and doubling down on it only makes it worse.

It isn't only Republicans or even conservatives who are angry at the media, at the lies, at the hatred and racism and exclusionary virtue-signaling, because it isn't only the Republicans or conservatives who have been made the victims. The Deplorables turned out to have a very large basket, and it's filling rapidly. Time will tell if that will have an effect in November but I wouldn't bet against it at this point.
