1) He’s providing the numbers and the data for why the GOP is about to win big in the midterms, and its all right and the numbers part of my brain says its right, but here’s why I believe the Dems are about to suffer an extinction level event on November 6th.
2) Because the Democrats had ONE JOB.

Don’t be crazy.
3) Seriously, that’s it. All they had to do was paint the right as crazy, and then just not be crazy themselves. Nice and simple. “Hey undecided voter. That guy is crazy about guns and talks about race all the time. We’re normal not offensive at all. Vote for us.”
4) Let me tell you a story of 2016, before election day where I wrote in “Fuck This 2016” on the presidential ballot then voted against every incumbent.
5) Boss throws on a Clinton rally on the computer. She was giving a speech, I had just abandoned support for Gary Johnson after he couldn’t name a world leader he respected, so I was back firmly in the undecided voter camp.
6) I’m typing away as we listen, and I say, “You know, I don’t really hear anything from her I find all that inspiring or appealing.”

“Oh, well, her message isn’t really MEANT for you.”
7) Full stop. The fuck does it mean her message isn’t meant for me? This is an election. The point is to sway as many voters into voting for you as possible in as many states as you can muster. It means stealing voters from your opponents, changing peoples minds.
8) At the VERY least it means gathering up as many undecided voters as possible. So what the hell does it mean her message wasn’t meant for me? Am I not an undecided voters potentially susceptible to persuasion?
9) So, fast forward to now. A McGrath rally where she’s gone full leftist because she’s speaking solely to her supporters and there’s NO social media or news presence to speak of, just a stream or two online that are unpromoted. Me again: “So what’s the appeal of her exactly?”
10) “Oh, she’s not trying to appeal to you.”

She’s not? So she’s looking to lose by 20% like the previous no name upstart liberal trying to knock out the incumbent Barr in 2016 did?
11) The left, they forgot how to not be crazy. They forgot how to appeal to anyone.
12) These are weaknesses that they cover with lies. But those lies are cracking. The New York Times’ live polls are literal bricks being thrown through the window of the Blue Wave narrative.
13) The people who were selling the idea of a blue wave from day one are the same people who proclaimed the economy would die under Trump, that we would be at war with North Korea on day one. Ridiculous lies that failed to pan out.
14) All they had to do to avoid that outcome was not be crazy. But they were crazy, so they imagined the most horrible things that could happen under anyone and went batshit insane with those ideas.
15) America, America likes a little bit of crazy. America likes Reality TV crazy, Jersey Housewives crazy. Loud and wild, but you know overall its scripted, there’s a pattern with rhyme and reason.
16) Trump is a little crazy. He’s going to say wild things. America likes someone who says wild things, but won’t cause mass uncertainty about the economy and about war.
17) America on the whole does not like widespread unrelenting crazy. We don’t like deranged homeless people accosting us on the street, the total feral unpredictability of full on crazy.
18) All Democrats had to do was not be the insane San Francisco homeless person shitting on the sidewalk in front of you with used rusty needles falling out of his pocket, exaggerate Trump’s crazy, and not be crazy in turn.
19) Democrats had the MSM working on portraying Trump as crazy, and it worked after a fashion, but they in turn had one job: don’t be crazy. That’s it.
20) They couldn’t help themselves. Batman Gambit after Batman Gambit, baited trap after baited trap, the left went more insane.
21) Why will the GOP win? Because Trump baited the left further into insanity, and now, no one in their right mind will vote Dem.
