The US Senate has 51
Republicans, 47 Democrats and 2 Independents. Republicans need to pick up 2 or
more seats to retain better control of the Senate. 35 Senate seats are up for
election in November 2018 and 26 of these Senators are Democrats. 10 of these Democrat
Senators are in Trump States. The Five states
where Democratic incumbents are considered most vulnerable are Indiana,
Missouri, Montana, North Dakota and West Virginia.
The US House has 238
Republicans and 197 Democrats. Republicans need to hold on to their seats to
retain control of the House.
In the 2016 election,
Trump won 304 electoral votes and Hillary won 227 electoral votes. Trump won 30
States and Hillary won 20 States. In the popular vote, Trump got 63 million
votes and Hillary got 66 million votes. But Trump won 3084 of 3141 counties and
Hillary won 57 counties.
Trump is campaigning
for Republican Senate and House candidates and this is working. All Trump
voters know they need to show up and vote in November 2018.
Trump made serious inroads
winning blue collar, cradle-Democrats and minority voters and I suspect that
this migration from Democrat to Republican has advanced since 2016, because
Trump is accomplishing all of his campaign promises and the US economy is being
restored.
Voters will decide if
Republicans retain control of the House and Senate and this depends on who
shows up to vote. If Republicans come out in force and retain control of
Congress, the Trump Agenda will continue to be implemented.
Democrats have no
realistic platform to address voter demands to restore the middle class and
Trump’s Agenda does. But Democrats have
infiltrated government and have influence with schools, churches, most of the
media and corporate globalists.
There are 22 million
government employees in the US and 2.2 million are federal government employees
and 1.6 million college professors who are mostly Democrats. 3.8m
Other government
employees include 1.1 million police, 1.2 million fire fighters, 2.1 million US
military, 3.6 million teachers that total 5.9 million. That leaves 12.3 million
other government employees who run the courts, keep property records and do a
myriad of activities. Trump seems to get support from police, fire fighters and
the US military.
In 2016, there were
157.6 million registered voters in the US and voter turnout was 137.5 million
or 62%.
In 2018, 40% are
registered as Democrats. 30% are registered as Republican. 30% are registered
as Independent. In 2016, Trump voters included the Republicans, a lot of
Independents and even some Democrats.
US students have been
exposed to Liberal ideology propaganda since the 1980s. Most of these have
recovered from their brainwashing, even millennials who voted for Obama in
2008. We graduate 2 million high school grads per year, but only 30% go to
college to become our 2.4 million “snowflakes”.
Hard-core Socialists
are in a panic over the reversal of their narrative and their policies. This
group is limited to about 10 million. Their followers made up the difference in
the 2016 election, but their numbers are dwindling.
US voters are divided
between those whose first priority is the restoration of the US economy and
those whose first priority is being politically correct. These bewildered souls
live in the “world according to Thumper”, who said “If you can’t say anything nice,
don’t say anything at all”. They would rather have a “milk-toast” than a
“leader”, who understands the economy.
Voters who are
anti-Trump need to focus on Trump’s results and forgive what they regard as his
belligerence. Trump is on a quest to save your country. If he is successful,
your children and grandchildren will prosper in a safer, more stable country.
If he is not successful, your families will suffer in a bankrupt, poverty
infested Socialist Republic. All of our current problems can be traced directly
back to reckless Democrat policies.
