1) 9 rallies. 8 states. 4 days.

I’ve been saying to everyone who’s been asking me, the states to watch, the close races? The ones Trump will visit in the last week.

2) The Republicans have quadrupled their ground game. They’re outraising the Dems. Individual races may not be getting a lot, but the Republicans aren’t playing the individual races game. The GOP has adopted...

Strategery.

3) Think. How do you beat a party who’s stated goal is to retake the House? How do you counter a strategy which millionaires and billionaires are dumping tens of millions into individual races?

4) Well, think about it. The Dems are focusing on individual races. Individual candidates. Specific segments of the country. A bit like trying to win via the electoral college, fighting state by state.

5) After all, midterms are supposed to be low-turnout affairs for independents, you get out your base, and whoever got the most of their base out wins.

6) Trump spent this season turning the midterms into a national race, one won by the popular vote.

7) That’s right. The Dems spent months focused on the wrong thing.

The DNC floundered and flailed with funding, while races like Beta’s took in record levels of cash and refused to share.

8) The GOP is blasting out national ads daily, and turned it into a jury-rigged presidential race, Trump vs Pelosi.

Record fundraising for the RNC on a midterm year.

Polling and data operations thanks to Trump’s sharing of voter info that let them pinpoint hotspots.

9) By the time the Dems realized that they had just spent months playing the wrong game, McConnell slammed the door shut on them and kept the Senate in session, denying the Dems the opportunity to campaign while Trump held rallies and kept the race going on the national level.

10) The GOP is going to make out like BANDITS in 4 days, thanks to the simplest principle in strategery.

Do not play by your opponent’s batteplan. Make them play by yours.

11) The Democrats had no doubt arranged with their affiliates to send mobs of migrants up north. But the Republicans knew they were coming and already knew how to capitalize on it; why do you think NPCs were blaming the GOP for the caravan?

12) “Jobs not Mobs. Oh, look at that! Thousands-strong mobs are marching right through Mexico!”

13) In a normal midterm year, the caravans would become a wedge issue, and Dems would have talking points ready while the GOP floundered. THAT was the left’s plan.

Trump ripped it away from them and made the Dems a screaming mob while he acted as the sole GOP authority.

14) The domestic terrorists and shooters attack, and the Dems scream as a unified mob, while Trump acts as the law and order President.

Notice who I’m not mentioning.

The actual GOP candidates.

15) AAAAAAAAAND I have been bourboned.

16) We’re gonna fucking win this shit Tuesday, because you know what the GOP has?

Trump. Trump Jr. Lindsey Motherfucking Graham. Barron’s shitposting legions. Motherfuckers have been going nationwide on the offensive.

17) You know what the Dems have?

Obama and Biden barely able to fill a goddamn schoolbus, much less an auditorium.

18) People will sit in the cold for an entire fucking day and night camped out to get inside a Trump rally in a goddamn stadium.

And Obama rally they only pull out about 1/4 to 1/2 the gym bleachers.

And Dems are supposed to MATCH GOP turnout? Get the fuck outta here.

19) Motherfuckers won’t get off the couch to see their failed messiah, who is the one of the ONLY TWO Dems able to credibly campaign nationwide, the other being his groping, participation trophy winning, only slightly less geriatric than Hillary sidekick.

20) Come Tuesday, their asses won’t even show up.

Take THAT to the bank.
