Time for yet another crazy anti Trump speech from Dementia Joe.
Worked a treat the first two times.
Sent Dem poll numbers sinking deep into the pits.

It’s good to get the Nigerian angle on our politics.

I wonder how vulnerable AOC’s seat is?

The author is a 100% culturally assimilated naturalized citizen.
Too bad what he assimilated to was a Democratic Party apparatchik.

Depending on how many fresh RINOs come aboard..they might not have to worry to much.

I guess they still have to go through their customary wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Drubbing the Dems is the same as horsewhipping the WaPo.
Rejoice in their tears.

An entire wave of Young Democrat candidates will be wiped out. Democrats will be reduced to the Party of Old Farts.

That would be good.
The old hacks would be reduced to yelling at kids to get off their lawn.
And the young losers would have to get a real job.

One of the Fox prime time shows had AOC's Republican opponent on last week.

It was fascinating to watch. She is a fairly young person who speaks with a thick NYC accent, and is determined and confident of defeating AOC.

Doubtful we see AOC lose, but if that happens, then we are witnessing a massive political sea change in America

If there was no cheating and straight elections, the Dems would end up with about 25% of the seats. But that’s not the way it works...

The Dems will contest their lost elections (because, you know, this time it's (D)ifferent).

They will then, over the next two years, obfuscate, protest, and do anything to slow or stop the GOP from getting anything done.

Dem SOP...

So the donkeys are finally waking up to what’s coming.

We are at the stage where they’re at the beach and all the water has receded for miles. They can hear a low pitched roar in the distance and its just now dawning on them what that is.

We need to do more than “vote them out.”

We need to chase them out of the country entirely.

This would be a good week to spend in a bomb shelter because the Rats are doing everything they can to start a nuclear war.
