The Dems Will Lose the House in 2020
American Spectator ^ | March 11, 2019 | David Catron

If you find it difficult to grasp how a handful of leftwing extremists managed to win last week’s battle with the nominal leadership of the Democratic Party over a House resolution originally written to condemn anti-Semitism, Margaret Thatcher explained the phenomenon four decades ago: “The one thing about leftwing politicians is that they are always fanatical. They never let go. It’s their religion.” She was describing how the Labour Party had been destroyed from within by a small minority of radicals. Thatcher eventually exploited this process, led the Conservative Party to victory over Labour, and became Prime Minister for eleven years.

The Republicans will deliver a similarly humiliating defeat to House Democrats in 2020 if its alleged leaders fail to rein in their own cadre of fanatical leftists, the core of which consists of recently elected social justice warriors Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, Rohit Khanna, Raul Grijalva, and Pramila Jayapal. But the internecine fight that preceded the cowardly revision of the anti-Semitism resolution into a denunciation of generic bigotry suggests that Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer may not hold enough sway over their own caucus to prevent it from self-destructing.

The Democrats are going to lose big in 2020.

The only things that will save them are Republicans deliberately losing and massive voter fraud.

If those happen, the Democrats will have a good chance to win.

Let’s hope some smart minds are already in back rooms talking about how to exploit these leftist wackos.

All the Republicans have to do is keep their mouths shut. Since AOC hit the scene, I've been telling me fellow conservatives to soft-pedal the criticism of her. Most right-wingers are so much sharper than she is that anyone who takes her on directly risks turning her into a sympathetic figure.

Just let these wackos talk...and talk...and talk.

Don’t forget voter harvesting and states passing bill to give their electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote.

That’s going to depend largely on the ability of the GOP to get a clue and to nationalize House races.

Yep. They see the “death to America” and the “death to Jews” Muslim voting block growing. They only care about power, not what’s best for the country or humanity.

They’ll cheat and no one will stop them. Nothing is really being done now just as nothing was done in the last election and so goes the country and our future. Oh well.

But don’t ask me what I think of you

Democrat vote fraud has become very refined. As long as it is ignored then the republicans won’t Gain squat in a major election.

In my opinion the spark that ignites hot civil war will be these proliferating Red Flag laws.

Thank you, Lindsey Graham.

With Democrat ballot harvesting and Trump adopting John Bolton’s foreign policy, I wouldn’t be so sure about that.

I found it interesting that the number of seats gained by the Rats correlated almost exactly to the number of RINOs who “retired” prior to the 2018 election cycle..
