Morning Joe: Kavanaugh Hearings 'Disaster for Democratic Party'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/11/2018 5:02:52 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Hey there, Democrat Senators Feinstein, Booker, Harris, Blumenthal, et al. Hope you enjoyed your time in the limelight during the Kavanaugh hearings. But sadly, dear Spartacus & Friends, the time has come to pay the bills—at the polls.

On Morning Joe—notoriously no fan of things Republican—there was consensus today that the Kavanaugh hearings have provided a "huge bump" for the GOP, while amounting to a "disaster" for the Dems. The comments came after polling maven Steve Kornacki reported that Republicans have moved ahead in four key Senate races: Tennessee, Texas, Nevada, and Arizona.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Street violence can become unscripted and spontaneous, particularly by the unpaid regulars who weren’t bussed in and staying in DNC paid hotel rooms.

And our GENIUSES in the Senate leadership (and no, it’s not sarcasm, this time), let them DRAG IT OUT for three 3 weeks, moving all of this that much closer to Election Day!!!

Morning Joe probably didn’t enjoy the video of 20,000 overflow citizens watching Trump on a screen in a parking lot. Tough to chew when you hit the office at 3:00am.

“Well, glad to see a blind pig find a truffle from time to time.”

I think Joe and Mika know what will happen if the Republicans hold both houses. They know Trump and from that I can assume they know his vindictiveness when being attacked. They attacked Trump for two years, saying he was mentally unstable and not fit for office.

Trump doesn’t forget and I have a strange feeling that if Republicans hold both houses and gain seats, that something big is going to happen with the media.

Lesson of the day: It's OK to go "Spartacus".

But never go "Full Spartacus". Spartacus was destroyed in the end.

The democrats went "Full Spartacus".

And I've got popcorn!!!!!

That line should be printed in bold letters in every GOP party and candidate’s HQ.

If it is the resounding ass kicking I think is coming, when they do the President needs to call a Pressy and state very clearly.

‘To my Fellow Americans, after the 16 Election there were a very vocal minority that wanted everyone to believe they had a greivence and were in fact the majority. We saw looting, mayhem and many voices on the left claiming somehow they were not being heard.

During the SC Nomination just a Month ago we clearly saw a attempt to incite insurrection and again mayhem, mob activities going so far as Doxxing Members of Congress, threats to Public Officials, things being sent to Congressional and Military targets. We will not tolerate this kind of behavior.

Anyone attempting to incite riots, insurrection, bliocking traffic, harassing people simply because they are driving down a street or any other types of Mayham will be arrested and charged accordingly. This includes those on the far left that consider themselves free to say what ever they think at the time including former Officials and those previous Political Nominees. YOU WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. Free speech is one thing, yelling fire in an Theatre is another. So is suggesting you kick, get in their faces, harass or stalk those you disagree with.

To those office holders that have failed to uphold your oath of office, you need to get with the program! I have directed the AG and DAG to look into holding you responsible when there is evidence that these activities are taking place within your area of responsibility and you fail to take the minimum action needed to stop such activities.”

This is what Trump has wrought.
He fights back.

You can rely on the Democrats always overplaying their hand.

I expect Trump to keep baiting them for the next six years.

The last few people who thought there were still sane Democrats out there learned differently.

Any NeverTrumper who isn’t a complete dead-ender learned that you either hang with the man, warts and all, or be overrun by the barbarian hordes.

Well glad to see a blind pig find a truffle from time to time

Or maybe it's blindfolded pigs having the blindfold torn off. What the Kavanaugh accusations did was put the spotlight on HS and undergraduate lifestyles of the DC inner circle. I wonder how many people are squirming because they were in the same party environment in HS and college. The other thing this exposed is just how inbred the DC elite are.

I'd like to have a SC judge who lives in Nebraska, commuted to college and law school, and had to get up early to milk the cows, or whatever.

Over the months that first year I watched Ben shapiro make the turn toward trump, but he sort of did it the way I did (but slower). I think we both see him as a bit of a social bafoon, and you really can’t trust what he says in public, but you have to watch what he does as well as his motivations for his actions. And based on that he is an amazing president.

I’m thinking that the argument over which makes a better president, a senator or a Governor. The answer is, a businessman who has never been in politics. :)

The Kavanaugh thing has started waking up the old Joe...

The dirty tricks - the cruelty against a good man - were so bad even Joe couldn't pretend they were acceptable. It won't hold but it was nice to see there was still a person inside that shell...
