The Surprise Winner of Election 2018? Trump!
Townhall.com ^ | November 11, 2018 | Wayne Allyn Root

Posted on 11/11/2018 8:05:16 AM PST by Kaslin

I always tell the raw truth. I don't back down. I just say what's on my mind and let the chips fall where they may. Here's the raw truth about Tuesday's election, the winners and the losers.

Winner No. 1: President Donald Trump

Trump pulled off a miracle. He became only the fifth incumbent president to add Senate seats in the past 105 years. He picked up new seats in Florida, Missouri, Indiana and North Dakota. Blue wave? There was no blue wave. Senate victories look more like a red wave ... but not for the GOP. Specifically for Trump.

Where Trump campaigned, GOP Senate candidates won 9 of 11 races. Trump's energy pulls the GOP train. The GOP lost the House only because Trump couldn't be in 435 places at once.

Winner No. 2: Trump's 2020 Re-Election Campaign

Now, he gets to play hero and protect America from radical nut cases suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, such as Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Maxine Waters and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. This is a dream situation for Trump. Compared to these hysterical extremists and Marxists, he'll look like the adult in the room. Democrats will destroy themselves with their anger, hate and vitriol, setting up Trump for a win in 2020 and creating a chance for the GOP to retake the House with Trump's star power at the top of the ticket.

Winner No. 3: Wayne Allyn Root -- and Every Other Conservative Talker in America

We just hit the jackpot. Impeachment. Investigations. Bitter accusations. Controversy, chaos and fighting between Trump, Pelosi and Waters will be the best thing that ever happened to my shows. There will never be a dull moment. People on all sides will tune in to hear the latest drama in the most exciting soap opera in America political history, "As the Trump Turns."

Winner No. 4: The Stock Market

History proves Wall Street and stock investors love gridlock. Nothing will pass for the next two years -- except billions in infrastructure spending. Wall Street loves that, too.

Winner No. 5: Trump Again

He won't pass any bills. But with an expanded GOP Senate on his side, Trump will get new conservative federal judges confirmed at the fastest rate in history. Dems are excited because they just won the House. But that's meaningless. Trump will now "fundamentally change America" via the federal judiciary and executive orders.

Losers: Paul Ryan and most every RINO -- Republican in Name Only -- in the House who blew their careers by fighting Trump every step of the way and blowing the opportunity to pass the president's conservative agenda. They committed political suicide by not siding with Trump.

The Biggest Loser: Nevada. My state will soon become California East -- an open-borders sanctuary state with massive tax, spending and welfare increases on the way. Say goodbye to a booming state economy and population growth. The exodus of business owners and productive citizens will soon begin.

Now to the real raw honesty. In coming columns, I'll explain exactly how and why the Nevada GOP blew it. You're going to want to hear this.

[The Biggest Loser: Nevada]

The Dem/Com model. A rich elite and a serf class with a decimated middle class.

Blue states went even bluer also. NYS now has a 4 vote Dem majority in the state senate. This should finish off the state completely. Same for CT with the election of the lunatic Lamont as governor.

He didn’t win in North Dakota. Tester won.

Losers were red state Democratic senators, celebrity endorsements, and republican house retirements. And the biggest loser was McCain for screwing the republicans out of a health care victory and instead had to fight democratic lies.

I don’t believe for one minute that suburban women are defecting from the GOP - this narrative was designed to create a perception that the public is growing weary of Trump (not true!) and to cover up for the unlikely numbers that are resulting in suspiciously close elections brought about by massive fraud. Our ex-Prez has spent two years working on perfecting the art of stealing elections and they are most likely advising Dems in close races to refuse to concede, giving cheating Dems time to create Dem votes and change election outcomes.

Trump and the Senate have to get out ahead of the next election with laws for voter I.D. and election watchers or they will go down as the Dem machine becomes bolder and better at stealing elections.

Not if the Dems are managing via fraud to put the balance of the Senate at the whim of Romney, Collins and Murkowski.

Please forgive my ignorance but is voter fraud a federal offense? If so, does President Trump have any means to deal with what is happening in FL & AZ. I know not him personally but any agencies?

I think the biggest loser is Maine. Anyway here’s hoping the lame duck republican house releases the names of congressmen associated with the sex fund. If the dems are going to go after the President on his taxes, we the people need to know who are the sexual harassers in the house.

"Dems are excited because they just won the House."

All that Dems understand is the instant gratification of winning an election by telling low-information voters what they want to hear, knowing that after election they can continue to party on citizens' money that they steal with unconstitutional federal taxes.

"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.


Otherwise, Dems have no real vision for the future. This is evidenced by the fact that Dems win 17th Amendent-related votes on the promise of unconstitutional abortion funding, unthinkingly murdering future generations of unborn Democratic voters.

***Nevada. My state will soon become California East***

Too late. Colorado has already been Californicated. Now they are moving on New Mexico and Nevada. Oregon and Washington are gone.

It wasn’t suburban women...it was a D +9 turnout that caused the problems and narrowed races that shouldn’t have been so close. And what is Root smoking? This was not a good election for Republicans. The House doesn’t matter? Not passing ANY legislation doesn’t matter? A 53-47 Senate majority that includes Murkowski, Collins, Romney and Burr? Red AZ elects a Senator even more vile than McCain and a socialist to boot. And Trump was a winner? The reason they gained in the Senate was because of the many bad seats the Democrats had to defend, and is wasn’t like they blew out the Democrats in the Senate.

No legislation means even more debt, no budget, no wall, no immigration fix, no tax cut 2.0, no health care fixes - unless the Republicans decide to accept single payer. So Root is getting some good weed somewhere as he whistles his way to the abattoir.

And no, no one is going to do s#*t about the Democrat fraud in the next two years.

“***Nevada. My state will soon become California East***”

We are already there. Deep blue. The population in the south is rapidly becoming majority recent immigrants (legal and a massive number of illegals too). Taxes are going up in a hurry with a corrupto-crat governor and majority socialist legislature. Single payer (State) is coming. Property taxes, which are now low, are going to scream up at the speed of light. Real estate market is about to collapse...and energy prices are heading right to California levels. No one is going to be able to afford a/c in the Mojave. The environmental whackos now control the state.

Yeah right losing the house was a great win for Trump
2 years of the democrat mental cases chairing the committees is a winning situation

Trump is not a Republican, nor a Democrat. He is a pragmatic populist whose only ideology is to win for himself and America. The question is will his term in office transcend our two political parties or can they wait him out to return to the status quo of the Uniparty.

The former will meld demographics, the latter will simply return to the division of identity politics.

huh??....Trump added to the Senate..you know how rare that is??...house races are local nutcases, plus 40 gop retirements didnt help...as for judges, he doesnt have to beg morons like Romney..Murkowski and Collins anymore...Trump personally retired McCaskill ..Nelson....Donnelly...Heidkamp...and barely missed Tester...not too shabby. Even money that Ruth Bader Ginsburg is out within 6 months...then watch em really crack up.

The Senate wins aren’t a Trump miracle. They are the result of the cycle favoring Republican Senate candidates. Very few seats up, and the ones that were up were winnable from the get-go.

The rest of the points are good.
