The Red Wave Is Not Just Inevitable, It’s Also Conservative (read in full)

Apolitical tsunami is coming for Democrats. The resounding victory of Republican newcomer Mayra Flores in the special election for Texas’ 34th congressional district signals what most political pundits and election prognosticators already know: a red tidal wave will soon sweep away a Democrat Party in thrall to far-left radicals and progressive extremists.

However, as impressive as Flores’ seven-point victory was in the nation’s second-most heavily Hispanic congressional district — a district which Joe Biden carried by four points — the real impact will be felt in state legislatures.

What the red tsunami portends is not merely a coming Republican majority in Congress and state capitols, but a realignment that propels conservatives into power. All across the nation in one primary after another, conservative state legislative candidates are defeating milquetoast establishment and moderate candidates.

"This stands in stark contrast to South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, a darling of the Washington elite, who conversely supported eleven moderate candidates. Incredibly, Noem even backed Democrats who recently switched parties against budding South Dakota Freedom Caucus members. Only four of her preferred legislators won their primaries."

Kristi McRomBush continues to demonstrate that she's a total phony!

But, but the pearl clutching trolls here tell me the Republicans are deliberately throwing the midterms.

“Apolitical tsunami is coming for Democrats.”

I sure wish I had Andy Roth’s confidence.

Yup. Not mentioned in the article, who, exactly, will be counting the votes and my prediction is, it ain’t gonna be conservatives.

The Red Wave Is Not Just Inevitable, It’s Also Conservative


Extra Extra read all about it:
Democrat party relinquishes control of US voting system, citing need for fair elections;
Jan 6 committee closes down and apologizes for smearing President Trump;
Jan 6 prisoners released and awarded millions for false imprisonment, Pelosi leads charge.

And when “conservatives are propelled into power”, what will they do with their power?

I’m going to tell you: They will continue their project of weakening the State, believing falsely as they do that state power is their enemy.

But state power is only their enemy when it is wielded by enemies.

The US is in the throes of a bolshevik revolution. The enemy is not the “Dems”, although the revolutionaries swim among the Dems as a fish swims in the sea.

The bolsheviks grow in power when the “Dems” win, and they grow in power when the GOP wins. This is because their claim to legitimacy does not rest on elections. Republicans AND Democrats care about winning elections, bolsheviks care not at all.

If a right wing government does not come to power soon, the bolshevik revolution will culminate in victory. A right wing government will not be, can not be, “conservative”, because what conservatives are about conserving is a moral philosophy and a system of government which enables bolshevism as one species of “freedom” by continual weakening of the state which, in a better time, fought and defeated bolshevism by ALL MEANS, fair and foul, legal and illegal, constitutional and not.

This is the Weimar story all over again. Only this time, the communists are playing unopposed.

This headline is sure to attract many FR trolls and talking parrots who copy and paste their negative screeds everywhere on this site.

"But, but the pearl clutching trolls here tell me the Republicans are deliberately throwing the midterms."

Kemp testifying against Trump in July. The Turtle, along with 14 of Mitch's loyalists vote for gun control package. Cheney and that douchbag from Illinois on the Jan 6 committee doing the left's bidding. Many other GOPe types pushing hard against any form of America First agenda -- including fmr VP Pence, McConnell and McCarthy. The list goes on...

Now, I really don't know if -- or to what extent -- establishment Republicans are looking to throw the '22 mids, but I can certainly understand the suspicions of many on the right.

Define Conservative? MEGA is that a populist or Conservative movement, and has Conservatism become an establishment bouncer against the March of the people into political power?

Too bad for us that Trump’s win in 2020 was hidden, or more succinct, stole
stolen.
And
Let them get by with it so far.

The two big questions are:

  1. How many phony votes and be created without raising suspicions?
  2. Do the Demomarxists even care about how much suspicion they raise anymore?

    Not sure about the answer to #1, but pretty sure the answer to #2 is no.

Yup!

The UNIPARTY is real.

The whole Red/Blue-Rep/Dem metric is a chimera and only enables the bolsheviks to continue the kabuki theater as it slides the nation farther to the left while enriching the cast.

I have no doubts that the lower house will be taken over by Republicans. But, but, but ... will the Senate flip this year as well? This is not certain at all.

The GOP is adept at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, and they are about to do it again with the gun bill that’s cruising through Congress.

We’ll win the House.

Right now the Senate is 50/50 and headed the wrong direction.

McConnell better get his crap together......I won’t hold my breath.
