When you strike at the king, you had better kill him.
They failed. Payback is going to be a real b!tch.

Senate Democrats are privately acknowledging that President Trump will be very tough to beat in November if the economy stays strong and he draws on the substantial advantages of running as an incumbent.
Publicly, Democratic lawmakers are putting on a brave face, but behind closed doors anxiety is mounting over the unraveling of former Vice President Joe Biden’s White House bid and the failure of impeachment to put a dent in Trump’s approval ratings.
One of the chief concerns is that Trump, who has a virtually uncontested path to the Republican nomination, will have a big head start to prepare for the general election.
His reelection campaign is already spending heavily to reach out to voters on Facebook, and the Republican Party is solidly unified behind him.
Meanwhile, Sen. Bernie Sanders’s (I-Vt.) victory in Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary has made clear to some Senate Democrats that the party’s primary is likely to drag on for months.
In particular, they worry the party will remain divided until the summer convention and fear a reprise of 2016, when lingering resentment among Sanders’s supporters over the Democratic National Committee’s favoritism toward eventual nominee Hillary Clinton dampened voter turnout in the fall.
“I hear comments all the time that after what’s happened in the first two primaries we only have a 50-50 chance. It’s not looking good,” said a Democratic senator who requested anonymity to talk about the private concerns of colleagues.
One of the biggest surprises to lawmakers is the poor performance of Biden, who has performed well against Trump in hypothetical match-ups.
Though Biden led his Democratic rivals in national polls over the past several months, he finished in fourth place in the Iowa caucuses, with 15 percent of the vote, and dropped to fifth place in the New Hampshire primary, with a paltry 8 percent.
Other red flags are Trump’s resilient approval rating, despite months of an impeachment inquiry followed by a weeks-long trial, and the amount of money his campaign is raising and spending.
He certainly transformed the office... WHILE returning to decorum and accountability.
Those are ugly words that Liberals hate.
It is the economy stupid .....the virus could be a big problem if it gets out of control.....or will the stock market tank if Bernie is the nominee.

As we move ever closer to the day when the leaders of one side end up in camps or helicopters you and everybody else is going to have to rethink your statement. I vote their side gets the helicopter rides.
“...Trump, who has a virtually uncontested path to the Republican nomination,...”
No not “virtual”, literal since there is no one conceivable of presenting a challenge to him.
A coup fails when the traitors are hung or imprisoned. Not before. It is far too premature to claim “the coup failed”. When our president can’t even call his own AG to invite him for a beer without spies reporting to Pelosi can you really say the coup failed?
“Though Biden led his Democratic rivals in national polls over the past several months, he finished in fourth place in the Iowa caucuses, with 15 percent of the vote, and dropped to fifth place in the New Hampshire primary, with a paltry 8 percent.”
Thereby attesting to the efficacy of polling in this day and age and most certainly when done by Democrat lapdog pollsters.
So the Democrat media trots out King Barack I to falsely claim that he should get credit for Pres. Trump’s robust economy! Only the stupid Democrats believe that lie.
“Payback is going to be a real bitch”
You know it really can be devastating if done in a thoughtful way.
The phrase, “Revenge is a dish best served cold” (Francis Bacon)comes to mind. Job one is to get re elected. Then turn loose of the Hounds.

Sorry for the double post

For sure Soros will have a hand in any hic-up in the campaigning and election...like he did previously
Watch how the DemoRATS will try to bring down the economy now!!
ANYTHING to take down Trump!
Love this President!!
I've said it for the past 3+ years: If the economy had been good under Obama (and race relations hadn't stunk), Hillary would've been elected President. The simple truth is Obama failed miserably, and Hillary paid the price. On the bright side, Obama's failure brought us President Trump.
The democrat party, through its media branch, will dial up the attacks on Trump to a level we have never seen before. It will be relentless and mean. They will search around to find a bimbo who’s willing to say, for money, that Trump did something, and that she’s only coming forward now because she was afraid etc etc.
Good call.
Because an enlightened leader holds plenary powers does not imply atrocities. Humans are such an unruly species . Yet there have been times in human history where vast numbers if populations United under such enlightened leadership and things worked out quite well. For a long time. An example would be a ruler/king in ancient India , known as Asok. Whether this could ever work again in the modern era ,I have no idea but (for me) it’s fun to consider. These days , people have become so disrespectful , or disloyal, in their arrogance ; we deprive ourselves fro excellent and dynamic leadership because of our own grasping, contrarian, egos. I will probably take an ET alien invasion to cause the human race to ever truly unite under any such individual enlightened leadership again. And then it will likely be too late.
Soros... one man ....1000 yrds....end of problem
I have a suggestion for the Democrat Party’s theme song. Bob Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone”. It is the PERFECT anthem for these vagabonds who now can sing along “when you have nothing left, you’ve got bothing to lose. You’re invisible now, you’ve got no secrets to conceal.”
It’s there for all to see. The deceit, greed, elitist, hateful, conniving, wicked party that once laughed at everyone “below” them now finds themselves looking UP to make eye contact.
“HOW DOES IT FEEL? TO BE OUT ON YOUR OWN. NO DIRECTION HOME. A COMPLETE UNKNOWN. LIKE A ROLLING STONE”
