We need to take advantage. A one minute youtube with all the worst of the DNC crap on it ending with - “This is the DNC of today.” Crowd fund TV commercial play in close election locations. Thanks to RINOs, many won’t donate to GOP but they might donate against Democrats.

trying to take itself, and with it the whole party, off an electoral cliff?

The cliff has moved. The Democrat party base has gotten increasingly shrill, statist, and violent. They're totally irrational. You cannot reason with them. You cannot bargain with them. There is no middle ground between someone who wants to take all your rights and your plunder your life's savings to bribe the masses to keep themselves in power and someone who wants freedom to live and work as they see fit.

You can only destroy them or be destroyed by them. This is why they're so insistent on disarming us. They want no condign resistance to the tyranny they plan to impose. They have this view of them passing gun control and the 150,000,000 or so American who own firearms meekly lining up to turn them over to the left's beloved police. Not going to happen. probably 90% will do just that, but the remaining 15 million more or less aren't going to go peacefully.

Plus it isn't going to be the gun owners and police who get all the casualties. This will be an asymmetric conflict with Democrat donors, politicians and bureaucrats and their families ambushed and killed. And it won't be poor hapless gun owners making a last stand against overwhelming numbers of swat thugs. Think IEDs and EFPs with improvised claymores raking police parking lots at shift change. The cold dead hands will include as many prominent leftists in the media as can be found and dispatched by stealthy means. And there will probably be in the 15 million or so a number of skilled chemists who will do things like make and dispatch horrors like VX in neighborhoods that went exclusively for Hillary. It will be REALLY UGLY. Think Kosovo and you have to wonder if anyone in their right mind wants that for the USA. The hatred the left has for us average citizens is equal to anything you can find in the Balkans

But we can't stop it. We aren't the ones trying to take away the leftists' rights and money. We're content to leave them alone and let them stew in their own failures like Detroit. The only ones who can end this mess are the leftists and they apparently want to push on to open warfare.

Swing districts and competitive Senate races must be pounded with the message that the Democrats are in favor of open borders. Voters must understand that if they come to power, it will end the American nation and its culture.

. . . it will end the American nation and its culture, and jobs for real Americans, and money for schools and social services for real Americans.

When they get headlong to the edge, do we let them go off, or do we do the same age-old RINO thingy and snatch their defeat from the jaws of victory?
IMHO, we should push over any that refuse to go over on their own....LOL

Their third weakness is their constant harping on Trump voters being racist, homophobes, haters, deplorables, etc. The newest was unveiled last week after the Duluth rally when Rolling Stone declared that all the people [hardworking miners from NE Minnesota, etc. and NW Wisconsin voters], were lightweight Yahoos.

The use of such specific epithets towards voters ought to be repeated over and over again. Never let the people forget the contempt that Democrats, aka Socialists, aka Atheists, etc. have for them.

Evil, post-17th Amendment ratification uniparty Democrats and Democratic operative RINOs are modern day pirates imo, fighting each other for control of state powers and uniquely associated state revenues that the feds have been stealing from the states for decades, state revenues stolen by means of unconstitutional federal taxes.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.


The big problem that Democrats are now facing is this imo. After decades of unthinkingly winning instant gratification votes from low-information voters by promising such voters unconstitutional federal funding for abortion, along with having to preserve the politically correct, constitutionally unenumerated “right” to have an abortion by mainting a pro-abortion activist justice Supreme Court majority, career Democrats have discovered that they have stupidly wiped out their voting pool to the extent that even Hillary can't wire the ballot boxes enough to win an election.

In other words, all that Democratic open borders are imo is a “kitchen sink” attempt by Democrats to increase the size of their voting pool in order to remain in power so that they can continue stealing state revenues and citizens wallets with unconstitutional federal taxes.

The remedy …

Patriots need to finish the job that they started when they elected Trump president.

More specifically, patriots now need to be making sure that there are plenty of Trump-supporting candidates on the 2018 primary ballots, candidates who will be willing to support Pres. Trump in politically "forcing" Congress to surrender state powers that it has stolen from the states back to the states.

Patriots then need to pink-slip career lawmakers by sending patriot candidate lawmakers to DC on election day and give the care of the people back to the states.

”... the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Federal Constitution, is in the States, and not in the Federal Government [emphases added].” —Rep. John Bingham, Congressional Globe, 1866. (See about middle of 3rd column.)


Patriots also need to support Trump in leading the states to repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendment (17A) to make Congress's surrendering of state powers back to the states permanent.

And until the states wise up and repeal the 17A, as evidenced by concerns about the integrity of the outcome of Alabama's and Pennsylvania's special elections, patriot candidates need to win elections by a large enough margin to compensate for the following concerns.

In my mother’s later days, she began to write terrible letters to people she had known for years. She was in her mid 80’s and probably was victim of a kind of senility that manifests in the form of vindictive attack.

We didn’t know she was writing so many long abusive letters until my sister’s friend revealed the terrible attack on mother’s denist. We tnen learned of all sorts of similar letters.

I have a friend in her 80’s that is similar but much worse. She turns in verbal attack mode and destroys someone coming into her presence.

I suspect Maxine is literally off her rocker.

“I have a friend in her 80’s that is similar but much worse. She turns in verbal attack mode and destroys someone coming into her presence.”

I am in my 80s,many of my friends are in their 80s-——we do NOT verbally attack people or write nasty letters.

I yelled more when I had 5 teenagers living with me.:-)

Maxine has been nasty for years—it has nothing to do with age.

There is one other VERY significant political party that wasn’t one 50 years ago but is very much one today, and holds extraordinary power.

That party is the Media. It long ago gave up its fairness and objectivity to simply tell a story that happened to one that writes a narrative to explain what happened from single Leftist political perspective. In reality, there are many others perspectives, many much more valid to explain things, than the one of their own belief.

That party needs to be defeated.

I understand and did not claim it was universally present among octogenerians.

The problem is apparently a mental condition and type of senility.

Maxine has become permanently wacko
