With any other nominee, and any other President, the Democrats would have worn down the Republicans, and either the nominee, or the President, would have given up and withdrawn. Donald J. Trump is not just any President, and it is apparent that Kavanaugh is not just another nominee. Both the President, and Judge Kavanaugh, have spines that the Democrats did not expect. As the process proceeded, they kept telling themselves, "just a little bit more, just a little bit longer, and they'll give in."
Trump and Kavanaugh never gave in. Senator Susan Collins, Republican from Maine, and Senator Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, have indicated they will vote for Kavanaugh during tomorrow's confirmation vote. That likely ensures Kavanaugh's confirmation.
The hateful liberal left Democrats have lost this battle, and they will get worse. Their rage seeks destruction, and they will not stop until they can stop Trump's dismantling of the progressive machine's century-long work to fundamentally change America into something the Framers of the Constitution never intended.
The madness being portrayed by the liberal left Democrats, the liberal media, and all of the left's allies in leftwing groups and protest marches has not only fallen short in stopping the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh as the next addition to the United States Supreme Court, they may have also cost themselves the midterm election.
Midterm elections are normally about energy. In fact, all elections are about energy. Folks like myself who votes in every election is not the norm. Most people need a reason to interrupt their busy day to go out and vote. They need to be energized. Convinced. Compelled to get out there and vote when they could be at a soccer practice, or watching their favorite show, or going out to dinner.
In 2008 and 2012 Democrats were motivated by history. They wanted to vote for the first black president. Especially black voters. The percentage of black voters for Obama reached above 95%.
After eight years of Barack Obama, and the potential nightmare being proposed by Hillary Clinton, coupled with the fact that Donald J. Trump came across as a breath of fresh air, conservatives were energized, and they got out to vote. Democrats, not so much. For them, Hillary was not a good candidate.
How can anyone get excited about a candidate when their essential campaign message is, "It's my turn to be president, especially because I have lady-parts"?
Historically, after a new President takes the White House, the opposing party bodes better in the midterm election that follows. The excitement over the new president is normally spent. There's nothing left. But, the opposition is energized because they lost the previous election, and they feel like they need to do well in the midterm election to mitigate the damage to their cause being created by the new President.
Had the Democrats been more accepting of Trump, and not running around in circles with blood squirting out of their eyes, they would have probably achieved the blue wave in November of 2018 that they have been expecting. However, they have energized the Trump voters. They have gone so out of their minds with their #resist movement, especially when it came to Kavanaugh, they have literally lit fires under the butts of Republican voters, and now it is all but set in stone that the Democrats will lose seats in the Senate, and they may even lose some ground in the House of Representatives.
Nobody believes the polls. Nobody trusts the Democrats. GOP voters are definitely not going to allow the Democrats to be close enough in votes to go through the Kavanaugh thing all over again should another Supreme Court seat open up. Republicans are going to be voting in droves, and former Democrats like those associated with the #walkaway movement will be out there in force, as well.
In short, this is all going to backfire on the Democrats. It's going to get worse for them. And their response, thank goodness, will be to go even further into the realm of insanity. The more insane they are, the more votes they give the GOP.
People complain that the Republicans are not great when it comes to messaging.
With crazy people in the other party like we are seeing now, we don't have to have great messaging. As long as we stick to our values and principles, and the Democrats continue to act like screaming banshees, we'll remain in good shape.
