In this post from nearly two years ago, I predicted President Trump would have two terms and appoint "three young Scalias" to the Supreme Court.

Two have been appointed so far.

It was not a landslide, but much of the prediction is holding up well.

With six years left, I think he might appoint three additional folks (Breyer, Thomas, RBG).

So we have already almost 2 years of the 8

Expect as much WIN in each of the following sets of 3 for 2 years each as in the first 2 years.

Sets the launching pad for 46.

Dims and DS demolished.

I hope this scenario or something like plays out. However, I have a more pessimistic view. The GOP will hold the Senate in 2018, but narrowly lose the House. This will bring an unending series of “investigations” and constant threats of impeachment. Ruth Bader Ginsberg will die or become incapacitated in 2019 unleashing violent protests against Trump’s nominee. These protests will be violent riots in major cities with looting and burning worse than in 1968. I expect groups like Antifa will carry out acts of terrorism and even political assassinations. Trump will respond forcefully even to the point of bringing up US troops to restore order. Obama will use the unrest to create a shadow government, claiming Trump was never legitimately elected and call for UN peacekeepers to restore order and restore him to the White House. The threat of foreign troops under a UN flag will unleash a huge negative reaction and the protestors and rioters will be cut down in the streets and thousands rounded up and tried for sedition including prominent politicians and media. It will be our second civil war., but our Constitution will be restored and by 2056 the US will again be at peace.

“At eleven days before the election, the patriot agents and officers decided the time was right. FBI director Comey was forced to announce the investigations of the Clintons had been re-opened. The establishment media could not ignore the FBI director. They had lionized him scant months before, so the attacks on his character rang hollow.

Huma Abedin, Hillary’s right hand woman, her most trusted confidant, aide, and constant companion for over 20 years, was implicated. She and Hillary were separated. The Hillary campaign began to falter. A few Democrats called for Hillary Clinton to step down. The Hillary Campaign staffers did not know who to trust, who might be turning states evidence, or who was cutting a deal. The Clintons’ most loyal media operatives had been exposed in the Wikileaks data. The campaign could not control the narrative.”


This did make a difference. It certainly wasn’t everything - Trump didn’t change who he was or how he campaigned because of it, nor did the majority of those who KNEW that Hillary and the entire Clinton machine was corrupt suddenly come to that revelation when the news about Huma’s laptop became public...but it blunted any momentum that Hillary might have had and moved it to Trump’s corner.

That Weingarten called this a miracle is, IMHO, completely accurate. Trump was an outsider, kept saying things that “you just can’t say” in politics, had a bunch of big movers and shakers in his own party against him, had the entire media against him, etc. - and still won through hard work, sheer guts and a few miracles here and there that may not ever be able to be pinpointed by us mere humans. Trump is very clearly, again IMHO, a tool being used by God to restore the greatest force for good in human history to a place of strength and prestige, in order to further His mission for us. Though he is imperfect in many ways (just like the rest of us), for this particular job he is just about as perfect as they come. We NEEDED someone to be a bull in a china shop, to come in and destroy all of the corruption and drive out the kleptocrats.

It will be interesting to see how this all works out - and a month from now will be every bit as critical as 2 years ago was. Either the Republicans wipe the floor with the Dems (particularly in the Senate - just keeping the House will be fine), or everything will stop dead in its tracks for at least 2 more years. I personally think that the timing of Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings, and the vileness displayed by the Dems in opposing him was also pushed along with some help from above - so as to wake up the fence-sitters of the American electorate regarding the stakes in this upcoming election. As it looks now, the R’s will likely win 5 or so seats in the Senate, and maybe lose 5-10 in the House. Such would be a great victory, paving the way for an even bigger one in 2020.

Of course, like ALL miracles, we humans are required to do all that we can humanly do for ourselves before He decides whether or not we are deserving of a miracle - so not only should we all get out there and vote, we should also get others to come along who would otherwise have stayed home.
