This is sooo funny!

If you don’t know the original, here it is.

Get your friends and relatives to vote. Don’t be gaslighted.

It’s hard not to feel that in the run up to every national election the mainstream media and ‘progressive’ cultural infrastructure gaslight us into believing Democrats are destined to win.

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, making them question their own memory, perception, and sanity. Using persistent denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying, it attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim’s belief.

The prognosticators about the 2018 midterms are in almost precisely the same place — almost to the percentage point — that they were the day before the 2016 election.

If you needed a reminder, this is what they think of you:

DNC Chair Tries To Explain His Ridiculous Claim That Economy Was Better Under Obama… Fails Miserably

Perez: Democrats Have ‘Never Hesitated’ to Take Action Against Those Accused of Sexual Misconduct

Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez said on Sunday that the Democratic party has “never hesitated” to take action against fellow Democrats who have been accused of sexual misconduct.

CNN’s “State of the Union” anchor Jake Tapper asked Perez about the allegations against the DNC vice chairman, Rep. Keith Ellison (D., Minn.).

Minority leader on letting Hoyer be House speaker for a week: ‘That can’t be a serious question’

I have for a long time tried to have a path for other people to take over,” she said. “They have to go out there to get a following. They have to show their legislative chops. There are any number of people who could do that.”

By indicating that it is time for a generational change, Pelosi effectively disqualified her top two colleagues in House Democratic leadership—Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (Md.) and Assistant Democratic Leader Jim Clyburn (S.C.), both of whom are in their late 70s—from becoming speaker.

Politics today is a bloodsport, and sometimes that’s literal – ask Steve Scalise. This garbage about both sides and “Trump encouraging hate” is the same kind of lies we’ve been hearing from our opponents for decades, and it’s just as dishonest. The conflict comes from the left. The hate comes from the left. The violence comes from the left.
Sometimes the truth is unpleasant, that our leftist opponents despise us. They do not believe that we have a right to participate in our own governance. Given the chance they will govern us accordingly.

To them we’re bad people, morally unfit to have a say and obligated by their bizarre secular theology to submit to the indignities, disrespect, and abuse they heap upon us. That’s what they think. And that’s how they will govern if they win today.

They would rather burn this country down than allow it to prosper without them in charge. Why? Because the only thing that matters to them is their power. The only thing that matters to them is their position. That, and crushing you under their heels. They enjoy that.

So what if they reverse our great economy? The military rebuild? The regulatory roll-back? American’s interests are merely collateral damage in their fight for the greater good, which is defined as their greater power. They just want to make sure they get 50% plus one. The rest of us can rot.

Dear Lord, Please bless our election day with peace. Bind all negative spirits, powers, and forces that would bring violence, intimidation, and shame to our nation. Elevate godly men and women to positions of authority and retire those who seek to thwart your will. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Although the President’s party usually loses congressional, statewide and local seats in midterm elections, the 2010 midterm election season featured some of the biggest losses since the Great Depression.

Now consider this in light of Trump’s and Obama’s approval ratings via Rasmussen:

• Nov. 5, 2010: Obama Approval 45% v. Disapproval 54%.
• Nov 5, 2018: Trump Approval 50% v. Disapproval 49%.

The difference is even more striking when you factor in the media coverage for the two election seasons.

In 2010, the meme was that the Tea Party was an “angry mob” that didn’t appreciate the greatness of Obama, whose only failure was to not explain his policies well enough for the unwashed masses to understand how fantastic they were. Yet, Obama still had a -9 approval rating and his party lost bigly.

This election season, the meme has been that Trump and all his supporters are racist, homophobic, gun-toting pussy-grabbers who need to be silenced by their Democrat betters. Yet somehow Trump has a +1 approval rating.

One other statistic is intriguing me today and that is the attitudes of black voters.

At this time in Obama’s first midterm cycle, his approvals among blacks was between 88% and 91%.

Yet Rasmussen has Trump’s approval among blacks is an astonishing 40%. FORTY! Republicans haven’t seen support like this among blacks since the Great Depression!

Victor Davis Hanson is such a gifted writer, I’m green with envy. This is his latest piece. Well worth your time to read.

CNN’s Existential War With Trump

After just 100 days in office, before his own agendas could even be enacted, the liberal Shorenstein Center at Harvard reported that 93 percent of CNN’s coverage of the Trump Administration was already negative. Just one in every 13 CNN stories proved positive. That radically asymmetrical pattern (shared by NBC/MSNBC) had never been seen before in the history of comparable media analytics. No one at CNN sought to explain the imbalance, leaving the impression that the news organization had more or less joined the progressive opposition.

The best way to stop the chronic Trump attacks on the veracity of CNN is not to unleash a rude and boisterous Acosta to argue endlessly with Sarah Huckabee Sanders, but simply to ensure that CNN news reports are fact-checked and not in need of retractions or firings, that CNN hosts, contributors, and anchors do not stoop to profanity, scatology, racism, and a historical comparisons to Stalin and Hitler, and that CNN’s staff and hosts do not joke about the president being killed through plane crashes and decapitation.

CNN’s Existential War With Trump

This was Trump’s agenda yesterday:

Trump Schedule || Monday, November 5, 2018
12:40 pm || Departs White House
2:15 pm || Arrives Cleveland, Ohio
2:45 pm || Delivers remarks at a Make America Great Again Rally; I-X Center, Cleveland
4:15 pm || Departs Cleveland
5:15 pm || Arrives Fort Wayne, Indiana
6:05 pm || Delivers remarks at a Make America Great Again Rally; Allen County War Memorial Coliseum; Fort Wayne, Indiana
7:55 pm || Departs Fort Wayne, Indiana
8:10 pm CT || Arrives at Cape Girardeau, Missouri
9:00 pm CT || Delivers remarks at a Make America Great Again rally; The Show Me Center, Cape Girardeau, Missouri
10:40 pm CT || Departs Cape Girardeau, Missouri
1:40 am || Arrives White House

Without exception, he’s worked hard and the people have responded with turn away crowds full of joy and enthusiasm. In the reply section to this thread, I’ll post some highlights from these rallies. They could be separate threads on another day, but there’s just too much else going on.

Hometown hero, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity shared the stage with the president in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Lee Greenwood sang “God Bless The USA.” You’ll never hear that anywhere the democrats gather …. Never.

Here’s the video. Talk about enthusiasm.

Win or lose, if you think the brutality of the left would be in any way diminished, you’re not paying attention. Some pollsters show the races tightening as they always do. They’re just trying to cover their backsides in case the “blue wave” fails to materialize.

The left will commit rampant fraud, as they always do. Hillary got 5 million illegal votes, and that was when the left knew the election was “in the bag.”

There’s no telling how much they’ll get away with this time. It’s a tried and true formula, since they never pay any price.

The democrats have the media, all the glitterati, the entire educational system and almost limitless funds from socialist billionaires yearning for a One World Order.

We have us.

The legacy of those who came before and the future of our children to follow is at stake. Don’t think for a second your vote doesn’t count. It’s a right men and women have paid dearly to preserve. Make your voice heard today.

Why the Midterms Matter

•Blowing up political correctness, because an American turnaround cannot happen if we are unable recover the meaning of words and talk forthrightly about what is really going on.

•Delegitimizing the false narratives of the mainstream media, because a turnaround cannot be sustained if basic communication channels remain corrupted.

•Taking down the administrative state, because a turnaround will fail if unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats continue to override the sovereignty of the American people by controlling our society.

Turnarounds Begin Only When Enough People Accept Something Is Wrong

Like many turnaround efforts, the past months confirmed a deep cultural and political crisis, with numerous irreconcilable differences.
