Will The Left Run Up The White Flag

Moderate Right said:
if they don't win the House? I mean how demoralizing would that be? Just when they don't think they could lose any more. What if they did? Another two years of Republican control. We know Trump isn't going anywhere. We know that the Senate isn't going anywhere. Then we could even have yet another opening on the Supreme Court, almost for sure if Trump wins in 2020. Oops, that means maybe the left still haven't hit rock bottom yet.

For the Left political ideology is religion and they are sociopathic zealot about.

Such people don't surrender, they must be totally defeated and kept away from power to limit any future damage they may cause.
 
I get gloating in the immediate aftermath of an election. I really do. In fact, here's me doing it the day after Doug Jones won the election against Roy Moore:

But gloating every single day for two years is really something.
 
Not for anything, but no one will be waving any flags. Our two party system forces the electorate to be ruled by tweedle dee or tweedle dum. Voters have short term memory and are notoriously fickle. Each party know that every two years is a new opportunity.

Their ideology is a religion, kind of funny when you think that they spend much of their religious time railing against - religion. They also spend much of their time defending Muslims for their religious beliefs while attacking Christianity.

Ain't that the truth. Yep, both parties seem to have absolutely no clue that their control will be short lived. They both always arrogantly believe they will be in power forever, kind of culminated by the fact the senate has now gone nuclear twice, once with Harry Reid and again with the Supreme Court confirmation process. Voters get pissed off at how Democrats run the country and vote in Republicans. Then Voters get pissed off at how Republicans run the country and vote in Democrats, each time with the party gaining the new power thinking that it will last forever. Then we keep flip flopping in a never ending teeter tauter, with neither side ever having a clue that voters don't really like the way either party runs the country. And yet, both parties have the system rigged so that only one of the two of them can win. Maybe something happened to the planet (like a comet) and we're all actually in a never ending hell and don't even realize it and then we blame it on global warming when it is actually hell itself.

Ummm...yeah, but the problem is that there's nobody actually living in those **** hole states. You pass idiotic laws that have people fleeing your state for better blue liberal states, and you think that makes you smart.

OMG, if they don’t win the house in the midterms ( I expect they will) their won’t be enough therapists to console them and we will be awash in a river of lunatic liberal tears. But once won it will guarantee the Trump re-election with all the stupidness they have planned.

LOL. So, now you are calling 2/3 of the country's states ****hole states. And you wonder how you lose elections.

no what you are really going to see is when they become unhinged when mueller releases this report and it has nothing bad about trump in it.
that will be the final push over the edge for them.

actually there are people that live there and the fact that you think like this is why your party has lost.
PS SC will probably stay a red state.

You've gone to dozens of these events?
Which ones?

I’m a bit curious about how much worse things will get if they don’t have a winning Blue Wave in November. Could it escalate from the Lefts current efforts to harrass, disrupt and attack political opposition to outright deadly violence?

And that is very possible. I find it kind of telling that Rosenstein, who is the ultimate head hancho of the Mueller investigation, was summoned to Trump's office recently (for something not related to the Mueller investigation) with Rosenstein's head hanging in the balance, and emerging unscathed with Trump not firing him and acting like they were good buddies. Is it because Rosenstein told Trump not to worry about the Mueller investigation and promised Trump that it really didn't contain anything damaging on Trump himself?

If that happens, I won't be angry at Democratic politicians, I'll be livid and disgusted with Democratic voters.

I assume you mean being disgusted not with D voters but with R voters and with D voters that did NOT vote...

And should not you already be disgusted with them? In 2016, the choice it was very clear. VERY clear. There is NO new information today vs 2016 IMO. If anything, things have gone better than one could have feared in 2016:

- he did not have a (publicly known) freak out one fine morning and press the RED BUTTON yet
- there is actually an investigation (by Mueller) that has not been shut down yet by some miracle
- D's were able to successfully resist SOME nonsense despite not having the majority
- rather than real damage to things like NAFTA, we only got it renamed (others of course really did get a real damage like TPP)
- ACA, while undermined and damaged, is still holding on by a thread

Finally, even if Ds win by thin margins, so what? Whether 49% or 51% vote D/R, you still have a ton of the country that is choosing an unobstructed Trump! Your disgust should not be based on that 2% margin...

Not sure. could have been the case. but that would kind of be a violation. that would like a clinton tarmac incident.
i don't think rosenstein would put himself into that position.

I figure that the report will be similar to what we have seen in the past.
that while there could be something that there is no evidence to support that anything happened.

What i expect and i will go no record is if mueller did find something that would be illegal i expect that the law will be
carried out as expected.

I also expect that if he finds nothing that these slim dogs will start howling to no end.
they will howl and whine and gnash their teeth over it like nothing before.

if what rosenstein said was true he could face sedition charges.

Well, there are wild animals on both sides. Back the wild animals into a corner, giving them no hope, and anything can happen.

The blue wave hit a rock wall and turned it into a blue nothing. the Democrats screwed up royally when it came to kavanaugh.
if they had just played nice then they would have the house and probably the senate.

after that debacle they ruined it. where they were going to take it now it has become a fully fledged tie and the republican base is energized again.
now it looks like they are going to lose seats in the senate.

it is possible they don't gain the house either.
