Big goings on in Maryland. My nice lives within walking distance of this big event.

And John McCain is being buried within 15 minutes of where I used to live.

Granddaughter, who has a pair of marine boots size 4,btw, says life is a mess up there.

That is pure BS and a rationalization/denial of what is really happening in this country.

Well screw you, too DUDE.

You can keep yourself in pure terror about the might of the democrats and the crafty Mueller machine.

I don't.

And I NEVER call your statements, words or essays BS. NEVER.

Who peed in your cornflakes today?

I will say this. I think Trump is a gift from above to get our country squared away. I have this thing called Faith. Whether you do or not is your concern. But I will not wallow around in fear, worry or depression.

God is watching us.

"Popular vote"? There isn't such a thing.

Ignore it at your peril. The electoral vote will follow. How many blue states have turned purple and then solid red? Trump won states like MI, WI, and PA that normal Reps could never win and he did so barely.

Trump won WI by 23K with 47% of the vote. This was the first time a Rep has won the state since 1984.

Trump won MI by 11,000 votes with 47% of the vote. This was the first time a Rep has won the state since 1988.

Trump won PA by 44,000 votes with 47% of the vote. This was the first time a Rep has won the state since 1988.

VA, NV, and CO are now solid Dem states in Presidential elections. They used to be solid red states or at least toss ups.

You’re forgetting the changes NOW going about.

Yes, surburbanites are going Left-wing, especially government employees, and Californians are leaving their states in droves. Califirnians have turned many states blue, such as CO and NV. Govt types in Virginia.

However, the Leftist have made a decision to support a league of various minorities and special groups and kick the working class whites to the curb.

Trump is the first to gather these voters up. More and more Republicans are seeing this.

Because of this, the red may grow in the Midwest AND Northeast as much as VA, NV, CO, WA, etc., have gone blue.

And that not my opinion, but others have said so:

Denial just ain't a river in Egypt. I have had these conversations many times with Reps who fail to understand what is happening and why. Mass immigration will make the Dems the permanent majority party. Unless LEGAL immigration is reduced significantly, the Dems will be the permanent majority party within a decade. Faith won't change the reality.

I had one hour, one on one briefings with Eric Cantor, George Allen, Ed Gillespie, and a number of other Rep candidates complete with charts and briefing books explaining what was happening in VA re the impact of mass immigration. They refused to listen. Only Dave Brat understood.

I was active with the Fairfax County Republican Committee who couldn't understand why the Reps were losing elections starting in 2004 despite increased voter outreach. Now one third of the residents of Fairfax County (the largest and richest county in VA) are foreign-born. In 2012 for the first time in VA, Fairfax County started using ballots in Spanish.

I have been working on this issue for over ten years. I have worked with people like Kris Kobach, Steve King, Roy Beck, Mark Krikorian, Jeff Sessions, Ed Royce, and others on this issue. I wrote this article five years ago that coincidentally presaged Trump's election strategy on immigration and the impact on the American worker. It is why I supported Trump from the very day he descended down that escalator.

Ann Coulter finally saw the light on this issue. So have Tucker and Laura. Rush, Levin, and Hannity, not so much. Europe is seized with the issue, which resulted in Brexit and the rise of the right throughout the continent. The upcoming elections in Sweden will be just another example of how immigration must be discussed as a public policy issue and not something imposed upon us by the political and corporate elites.

In 2008 a number of my colleagues and I drove over 4,000 miles following the McCain primary campaign thru Florida and South Carolina demonstrating against his amnesty and candidacy. I can take some satisfaction in McCain never seeing the attainment of his objective, i.e., blanket amnesty. I have not "wallowed around in fear, worry or depression." I have been sounding the alarm for a long time and been fighting on the front lines subjecting myself to both verbal and physical abuse.

Trump is our first President since probably Eisenhower who understands what is happening and taking actions to reverse it. He is our last, best hope, but it will take more than one term and one man. The forces arrayed against him span the political spectrum from libertarians to communists. There are trillions of dollars at stake along with naked power whether it be religious and union leaders or corporate interests or political power. Western civilization is under attack in a life and death struggle. You should read David Murray's The Strange Death of Europe

God is watching us.

God helps those who help themselves. There will be no deus ex machina to rescue us. We must put pressure on our political elites who are controlled by their corporate paymasters. If you are offended, so be it. Illegal aliens are not the reason the Dems have won the popular vote in six out of the last seven elections.

Evidently this tourney was held a few weeks ago below are the results top winner took home tow and half million bucks for an 83 lb. white marlin.not a bad payday at all.!!
.........
https://whitemarlinopen.com/

2.58 MILLION DOLLAR WINNER TOPS IMPRESSIVE 2018 EVENT
In a close finish, Pascual Jimenez from Puerto Aventuras, Mexico edged out all competitors to win a world record $2,584,260* in the 45th White Marlin Open. Fishing on the Weldor’s Ark out of Morehead City, NC, Jimenez weighed an 83-pound white marlin on the final day of the 5-day event held in Ocean City, MD to take the top individual prize in the 382-boat field. Gregory Giron and the Under Dog from VA Beach took 2nd place money for their 83-pound white worth $129,784 with the Lights Out from Ocean Reef, FL taking 3rd and $85,804 for the 75-pound white marlin caught by Bill Haugland of Coconut Grove, FL on Day 2.

Two world records were set during the 2018 event. The $2.58 million-dollar payout was the most ever awarded for the catch of a billfish, and the $5.45 million-dollar purse was the most ever paid in any fishing tournament.

The Blue Marlin Category and the $924,936 purse was safely held all week by Joe Rahman from Wanaque, NJ. His 881-pound monster caught Monday aboard the Auspicious out of Palm Beach, FL was never challenged as it was the only qualifying blue marlin weighed the week.

The Tuna Division edged closer to anointing the first million-dollar tuna as Gary Sansburry from Hobe Sound, FL won $904,851 while fishing off the Buckshot out of Ocean City, MD. The 75.5-pound tuna was the biggest of a close group that split up the rest of the tuna purse of $1,300,000. The Blinky IV out of Freeport, MA was second with a 73.5-pound tuna weighed by angler C...

Here are the 50 largest counties in America. There is a direct correlation to the vote and percentage of immigrants. The government types were always significant in VA. It was mass immigration and the domestic migration of people from the Northeast that changed VA blue.

The US will have the demographics of CA today in 2050. Does anyone believe CA will go red any time soon?

Because of this, the red may grow in the Midwest AND Northeast as much as VA, NV, CO, WA, etc., have gone blue.

What states specifically in the Midwest and Northeast? "May" is the operative word. And for what reason(s)? Unless the GOP adopts Trump's policies on immigration, trade, and placing American workers first, the GOP will go down the drain after Trump.

From your first link looking good for Nov.better all the time.

...........................

In 2016, that person arrived in the unlikely form of a New York real estate mogul who was far more comfortable with the hardhats on his construction sites than he was with the bankers and foremen. The “blue-collar billionaire” spoke like a guy from Queens because he was, in fact, a guy from Queens. That raw authenticity was valued by blue-collar folks, who considered him to be “one of them.”

They, in turn, rewarded him on election day. White working-class voters comprised one-third of the 2016 electorate; Trump won them by about 39 percentage points, far outpacing Mitt Romney‘s 2012 margin. They made up the basis for his wins in the critical swing states, particularly in the industrial rust belt, from Pennsylvania to Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin.

Today, they continue to support Trump and his policies. This is particularly true of his economic agenda as they benefit from the bounce-back in manufacturing, energy-sector and construction jobs, wage growth and the successful renegotiation of trade deals — like this week’s new NAFTA deal with Mexico — that disproportionately slammed them.

A new Harris poll of blue-collar workers, conducted on behalf of Express Employment Professionals and released today, bears this out.

According to the survey, blue-collar laborers are among the most optimistic groups in the country: A whopping “85 percent of [them] see their lives heading ‘in the right direction’ and 51 percent say the same about the country. That is 12 percentage points higher than among all Americans who say the country is heading in the right direction (39 percent), according to the July edition of the Harvard-Harris Poll polling average.”

That optimism carries over into other areas. Fifty-five percent say they are better off now than they were five years ago. And they believe this positive momentum will carry forward in the years ahead: A stunning 88 percent of blue-collar parents agree with the statement, “My kids will have a better future than I will.”

Indeed, the poll reports that 80 percent of blue-collar workers are optimistic about the future, and more than one-third (34 percent) say they are “very optimistic.” Eighty percent also agree that “the harder you work, the more successful you will be,” and 70 percent believe that the “American dream is alive for people like me.”

The poll found something else that should strike fear in Democrats. Blue-collar workers are slightly more likely to identify with the Democratic Party, 35 percent vs. 31 percent for Republicans — which makes the fact that they think Republicans do a better job than Democrats of helping blue-collar Americans, 39 percent vs. 36 percent, even more astonishing.

For everything we’ve been hearing about economic anxiety, the Harris poll suggests otherwise.

Brilliant stats from your piece,its just a shame that the average American is too dumb to get it!
....................
Over the past 40 years, a period in which U.S. GDP per capita more than doubled after adjusting for inflation, the annual earnings of the median prime-aged male has actually fallen by 28 percent. Indeed, males at the middle of the wage distribution now earn about the same as their counterparts in the 1950s! This decline reflects both stagnant wages for men on the job, and the fact that, compared with 1969, three times as many men of working age don't work at all.

So, what is your point in all this? Seriously.

I read a lot of things you have done.

I appreciate the things you have done, but what is the point?

That we’re doomed?

Honestly, I do not get the point.

One can see that Marina from my niece’s deck.

Been talk of town for weeks, as always.

She asks me to come visit anywhere in Akugust through Labor day, she’s nuts.

In younger x days, one could walk the piers between the boats, see the catch, chat. Too old for that any more.
