President Trump will be re-elected in 2020 and this is why...

The Trump Doctrine Humiliates Both Foreign Enemies and Democrats

This has been a really difficult time the "Neville Chamberlains" of the modern Democratic Party after witnessing the sudden demise of Qassem Soleimani whose Iranian offensive had started with such promise. When his people surrounded the U.S. embassy in Baghdad, America's liberals were practically salivating at the thought of fellow Americans being murdered and the opportunity to blame Donald Trump. This was going to be "Trump’s Benghazi," they chortled on social media.

Yeah, except that Trump actually passed his test.

The Iranians had killed an American contractor with a rocket attack on a U.S. base - they killed him because he was an American. Trump responded by ordering hard hits at five Shi'ite militia weapon sites, and not with any warnings either. They got one of ours, and so we got about two dozen of theirs. The Iranians, whose Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is the ultimate source of most of the Shi'ite terror in the world, decided to respond in what they thought was a clever way: send a few thousand of their camo-clad dummies to attack our embassy and hope and pray that a bunch of them would get mowed down on camera. In addition, wave a lot of banners, burn some stuff, and pound on the reinforced glass for the media’s benefit.

But apparently, they went home with the embassy unseized. Trump decided that there would be no "Benghazi II" on his watch, responding with some Apache gunships flying over the crowd of unwashed morons, kicking off some flares, and generally sending the unequivocal message that if those SOBs had a problem, the AH-64s had a 30mm solution. Then he sent in an additional 100 Marines - whatever the opposite of “stand down” is, Trump ordered that. But there was more.

He then dusted Iran's General Qassem Soleimani, who thought he could just cruise through Baghdad to conspire with his militia pals to kill more Americans. This guy had already maimed or murdered hundreds of our soldiers. But he thought he was safe.

Soleimani thought that Donald Trump was another punk like Barack Obama.

Like Hellfire he is. No one wants a war with Iran – but the fact is, we have been at war with Iran since 1979. It’s just that now we’re shooting back. When an Iranian kills an American, an Iranian needs to die. And one did. The Iranians did not expect it. And this rocket-powered justice from above will focus their minds wonderfully. This could escalate, sure. Maybe a show of force will be met by terrorist violence. But if we roll over like wimps, our weakness will absolutely draw a response. And we aren't EVER going to get every American out of the Middle East. We’ll always have embassies, business contacts, and Americans who just damn well feel like going there who can be targeted.

The Washington Times did a GREAT JOB of comparing President Trump's vision of America, speaking for 85-minute speech at an ebullient rally at the University of Wisconsin’s Panther Arena, overlapped with the Democratic Party's dour and relentlessly negative two-hours-plus debate at Drake University in neighboring Iowa.

Aside from occurring about the same time, the two events had NOTHING in common. It was as though the president and his opponents were viewing the state of our nation through opposite ends of a telescope. While Trump was exulting about a booming economy with wages & stocks rising, while joblessness & poverty are falling, his Democratic foes were despairing about how, in Senator Elizabeth Warren’s words: “So much is broken in this country.”

According to Liz: “children are living in poverty and seeing their life chances shrink,” while “people are being crushed by student-loan debt” and “farmers are barely holding on... we have an America right now that’s working great for those at the top,” she said. “It’s just not working for anyone else.”

Not to be outdone, Bernie Sanders lamented that “half of our people are living paycheck to paycheck” and “half-a-million people are sleeping out on the streets tonight.”

Joe Biden contended that “the American public is getting clobbered,” adding: “The wealthy are the only ones doing well, period.”

The other three Democratic presidential wannabes were only slightly less down on the country and the economy. For Democrats, the glass is not only not half-full, it’s not even half-empty. Ans as such, their seventh debate was indistinguishable from the previous six — except in one respect. To the angst and alarm of the identity-politics left, all six of the candidates who qualified to participate based on polling and fundraising were monochromatically WHITE. The only person of color taking part in the debate was Abby Phillips of CNN, one of the three moderators. In order to winnow the field to keep out candidates with no real chance of winning the party’s presidential nomination — much less the general election — the rules were set in advance so everyone knew them, were applied evenhandedly and were colorblind.

It’s not the DNC’s fault that rank-and-file Democrats (even among minority voters) haven’t expressed support for candidates of color in sufficient numbers for them to qualify for the debate stage. It would be “the soft bigotry of low expectations” to allow minority candidates to debate despite failing to garner sufficient support to justify it, merely for the sake of “diversity.” For what it’s worth, a pair of white candidates at least nominally still in the running — Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado and Rep. John Delaney of Maryland — were also kept off the stage for failing to meet those same polling and fundraising thresholds.

The contrast between the exuberance of Mr. Trump’s Milwaukee rally and the pessimism that pervaded the Democrats’ Des Moines debate was stark to anyone who watched both. And that doesn’t bode well for Democrats in November, regardless of who they ultimately nominate. Liberal Van Jones, one of CNN’s post-debate commentators, described the debate as unappetizing as “cold oatmeal.”

“Democrats got to do better than what we saw tonight,” Jones said. “There was nothing I saw tonight that would be able to take Donald Trump out, and I want to see a Democrat in the White House as soon as possible.”

It’s looking increasingly likely that that won’t be until January 2025 at the earliest.

 

[Dumpington]

We can already conclude with certainty that Democrats have LOST the impeachment fight against President Trump.

The only question now is how much of a political disaster this will be for that party, and who will pay for their failure? So far in the proceedings we’ve learned nothing new, nor are any new revelations likely. Adam Schiff's case in the House didn't convince a single Republican, nor will it likely earn a single Republican vote in the U.S. Senate, where it would require twenty G.O.P. votes along with unanimous Democrat support to remove Trump from office.

Adam Schiff and Jerrold Nadler, who both come across as McCarthyite bullies when chairing House hearings, look weak & ineffective when addressing the U.S. Senate. Democrats are clearly nervous. Schiff has thus far attempted to steer attention away from the Biden family being corrupt, or that the Ukraine illegally interfered in the 2016 election. Schiff called both claims “debunked” - completely ignoring Hunter Biden's lucrative involvement in an oil & gas company that paid him handsomely for doing nothing. Then-Vice President Joe Biden openly bragged that he got aid to Ukraine halted until a prosecutor investigating the Ukrainian company was fired. Ukrainian officials colluded with Democratic operatives to smear Trump campaign staffers and aid Hillary Clinton. If Russia has rightly been made to pay for its unacceptable intervention in the 2016 election, why not Ukraine?

But any future consequences for Kiev may pale in comparison to what the House Democrats face. Ordinarily, House Democrats should be sitting pretty. Even in elections when a president of the opposing party is re-elected overwhelmingly (as Trump will be), the House seldom switches hands. When Richard Nixon won 49 states in his 1972 re-election, Republicans only picked up twelve House seats. When Ronald Reagan was re-elected in 1984 with a similar 49-state victory, the pickup for Republicans was sixteen seats. Neither election came close to flipping the House.

What about this November, when Republicans need a net gain of at least eighteen seats to take back the House? The Democrat-controlled Congress has accomplished virtually NOTHING, aside from defining impeachment as an impotent form of censure that can be levied whenever the House doesn’t like voters’ decisions in presidential elections. The voters dislike failure, especially EXPENSIVE failures, which is all that the Democratic Party has had to offer!

Can’t wait for Bolton’s tell all

Hopefully Bolton will publish all he knows of the “drug deal” before Nov.

Trump had better pucker up and get his nose in deep!

Oh and those javelins? 39 million for 150 missiles and 11 launchers ?
(Buy Raytheon and Lockheed!) I’m assuming 50 million for the 210 they already have? Not one has been fired on a Russian tank! Great weapons we sell with rules about their use against our “enemy”. Odd this isn’t part of the news !

Weren’t there warnings about the military industrial complex? https://www.npr.org/2011/01/17/132942244/ikes-warning-of-military-expansion-50-years-later. Ah bah! Wtf Woolf Eisenhower know about war??

Dems “do nothing” ??!! Fuck! 400 bills that Moscow Mitch has blocked!! Fuck your talking point!!

Yes, and perhaps John Bolton will even hit the campaign trail alongside Bernie Sanders & Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez!

The United States is NOT at war with Russia. We sell weapons to the Ukraine to defend themselves from Russian attacks. They can then use those weapons or NOT use them! What's your point?

"Weren’t there warnings about the military industrial complex?"

Are you now wanting Adam Schiff to grill President Eisenhower on what exactly he was talking about?

"Dems “do nothing” ??!! Fuck! 400 bills that Moscow Mitch has blocked!! Fuck your talking point!"

The Democratic Party spent over $30-million on the two-&-a-half-year long Mueller investigation that they were hoping would end the Trump presidency, but it FAILED to accomplish that goal. Now the Dems are wasting even MORE time & money trying to impeach him.

If the U.S. Senate CONVICTS Trump of wrongdoing, the Democratic Party WINS and he's gone forever - but if the U.S. Senate votes to ACQUIT this president, then he WINS and is re-elected in November! It's just that simple!

Brad Parscale writes in TOWNHALL why President Trump is heading for a re-election victory this fall.

If you want to get a better understanding of Trump's supporters, try attending one of his rallies.

Contrary to the media’s straw-man portrayal of the stereotypical Trump voter, Keep America Great rallies attract voters of all demographic descriptions from across the political spectrum who have been uplifted by his policies. These patriotic Americans love their country and everything it stands for. Trump supporters are not embarrassed by our founding, our history, or by our U.S. Constitution. All they want is to live in a great America, and Donald Trump is the only leader who unabashedly shares that goal.

After attending dozens of Trump rallies throughout the country, I can definitively say that there is no politician in America capable of uniting voters like this president — and the data we’ve gathered from these events proves it. Out of more than 20,000 identified voters who came to a recent Trump rally in Milwaukee, 57.9 percent were not even Republicans. Remarkably, 4,413 attendees didn’t even vote in the last election — a clear indication that President Trump is energizing Americans who were previously not engaged in politics.

The Milwaukee rally wasn’t exceptional in that respect. It was just like other rallies the president has held all over the country.

Nearly 22 percent of identified supporters at President Trump’s rally in Toledo, Ohio, were Democrats!

Another 21 percent were independents - with an astounding 15 percent of thoseattending a Trump rally in Battle Creek, Michigan, consisting of people who hadn't voted in any of the last four elections. In Hershey, Pennsylvania, just over 20 percent of identified voters at the rally were Democrats, with 18 percent being non-white.

These numbers are nothing short of remarkable, especially considering the polarized political environment that the “#Resist” movement has fostered over the past three years. Trump supporters have to brave hostility, and even outright violence, just for wearing MAGA gear in public. Yet, they turn out by the thousands to Keep America Great rallies because they’re so enthusiastic about this president’s record of promises kept.

When President Trump holds a rally, people wait in line for hours — and in some cases, days — just to see him on stage and applaud his accomplishments. Unlike the political elites in Washington, these voters understand that American greatness is at stake in the upcoming election and that the only candidate in the race who has what it takes to keep America great is the one who has spent the past three years restoring it to greatness.

President Trump’s coalition defies stereotypes because he delivers results that offer something for everyone. Anyone attending a Keep America Great rally can see that for themselves.

 

[BotanyBoy]

Dems “do nothing” ??!! Fuck! 400 bills that Moscow Mitch has blocked!! Fuck your talking point!!

Name one bill that would have even taken a swing at the military industrial complex......

LOL...not a fucking one of them, they are all virtue signal bills from a party that fucking HATES the USA.

Your talking points are weak.

 

[Dumpington]

President Trump is holding his next rally NOT in the conservative American heartland (where Democrats have completely given up), but in Cape May County on the southern tip of New Jersey, which clearly demonstrates the inroads that this president is making into blue-state America!

Trump is holding the Tuesday rally along the beach in Wildwood in support of New Jersey Representative Jeff Van Drew, the congressman who flipped to the Republican party last month after opposing the House Democratic majority’s impeachment of the president.

The event is a chance to reward Van Drew with the presidential seal of approval, but it will also resonate beyond the Jersey Shore, drawing in suburban Philadelphia voters at a moment when Pennsylvania is a must-win for the president in 2020, according to Seth Grossman, an attorney who ran against Van Drew in 2018 as a pro-Trump Republican.

“He’s sending a message that it’s OK for Democrats to embrace Trump and Republicans, as opposed to feeling obligated to stay in the Democratic Party,” Grossman said.

The rally is in stark contrast with Trump’s 2018 campaign stops that tended to be further inland in counties that were generally whiter, poorer and less educated than the United States as a whole. That strategy helped Republicans to expand their Senate majority by two seats even as they lost their House majority to Democrats.

It's likely no coincidence that Americans' heightened satisfaction with their personal life comes as confidence in the U.S. economy and their personal finances are also at long-term or record highs.​

J. McCarthy, New High of 90% of Americans Satisfied With Personal Life, Gallup (Feb. 6, 2020) (citing R.J. Reinhart, Record-High Optimism on Personal Finances in U.S., Gallup (Feb. 5, 2020); J. McCarthy, U.S. Economic Confidence at Highest Point Since 2000, Gallup (Jan. 23, 2020)).

All three of those polls are very bad news for Democrats. (Doesn't it say something about a party that needs bad economic news to prosper?) And, remember, Gallup tends to poll (or is that "pull"?) to the left!

 

[bunnieee99]

He probably will get reelected. I remember watching Michael Moore (yeah, I know, it's ironic and weird) talk about how and why Trump would win, mainly focusing on blue collar workers that historically voted for the democrats but in 2016 voted for Trump because the democrats ignored them for immigrants and people of color instead. Nothing against those groups of people, either, it's just that Hillary's campaign was so sure that the white, historically blue states would vote for her, that she barely paid them any attention.

Kinda sad he'll probably never build the wall, though.

Catholics Are Traditionally Democrats

In the new poll, 54 percent of Catholic voters said they are open to voting for President Donald Trump in November, which includes 34 percent who declare that they will definitely back the incumbent. Trump’s biggest support among Catholics comes from the devout: 67 percent say they are sure to vote for him or are open to it. That also describes the position of 52 percent of devout Hispanic Catholics.

In that devout subgroup, 58 percent contend that the country is better off financially than four years ago. Also, 77 percent of devout Hispanic Catholics claim they are personally better off financially than four years ago.​

Dawn, do you actually understand what a Poll is?

A Poll is a mathematical determination from a verbal question. Each poll has embedded statistical formulas based upon the specific question. Since these generic questions have been answered by hundreds of million of people over the history of polls, the Poll Statisticians are very adept at calculations. Nowhere in that article did find the background information, no statistical analysis of how the raw data was determined, nothing. Where in paragraph 6, ( or any other is the statistical data) So I use the graphs as produced. Since the poll doesn't look to have that information embedded in the "story". So no deductions for those who give false answers, generic make up of the respondents, ages, locations, nothing...

just this: Note on methodology: From January 28 to February 4, RealClear Opinion Research conducted a poll of registered Catholics in the United States. Respondents were contacted online, and the survey was offered in both English and Spanish. The sample size was N=1,521 with a credibility interval of +/-2.77 at the 95% confidence level.


Like where in the US? Alabama? Georgia....give me a break, if they don't list a state by state, demographic make up, it is all just bullshit, or cherry picking...

I only quoted out of the article the information. I did not embellish it did I?

So the fact that the data I listed did not add up to your view, has no relationship on if I read the article or just looked at the "graphs" now does it?

As for the verbiage in the paragraph 6, even your answer based upon that paragraph is rudimentary bullshit.


Nice try, better luck next time...
