wow
The Democrats are really getting whatever they want.
Nothing like 2009 and 2010.
this increases the annual rate of immigrants from this program to 66,000 a year!!!
the House better shield against this, or this will be another GOP betrayal to immigration hawks
๐คข
there's literally no upside with this bill
that $1.6 Billion for the "wall"?
That's 33 miles of existing **fencing**!
Call your representatives!!!
VOICE YOUR OPPOSITION
These people are a bunch of chumps
A bunch of dickless faggots
We've given the left their cake plenty of times, when will we have ours?
Sure, we got virtually nothing for the wall,
Sure, we just doubled guest worker immigration,
Sure, we just doubled planned parenthood funding,
but hey! we got more MILITARY SPENDING!
That'll please the base!
Who the fuck comes up with this shit
Fox news fucking thinking they have ownership of what trump does and what made him win
No one voted for Trump for raising the defense budget, no one. If the people of the rust belt wanted that, they would have voted for Romney.
Thank fuck this bill won't pass
Nonetheless! Don't be complicit and flood the phonelines, everybody!
Everyone opposes it.
Does anyone have a quote of a Democrat saying something really retarded about Racial discrimination?
Want it to title my slide
for this presentation
Literally all of them
but uh
@FLanon @๐Boo-ton๐ I doubt Trump will sign it
Anyway
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I hope the Democrats make him their mascot for the midterms
Democrat Conor Lamb says he has won the district that @realDonaldTrump won by almost 20 percentage points just 16 months ago https://t.co/3F7wiKJ7qY
@trump20202024 it's dumb that they aren't doing a recount
Traitors.
They aren't? The margin of defeat was at like .04 last I checked
Like 700 pple out of 223000
Is it me or does it feel like theres a conspiracy so that the Dems get an advantage when it comes to things like this
Theres some sort of corruption going on
Definitely. If the Republican won you better bet your bottom dollar there would be a recount right now.
Show this around
This is the future Democrats want
@Kevin it's definitely not just you
also, added that to the meme folder
Im Asian
I know Democrats are going to go after Asian Americans next
@Kevin yeah, that's so true. Arguably they already have gone after them

<@&399683356218097667> <@&401065606306201600> by the way, have any of you actually listened to that PA-18 Nancy Had A Little Lamb ad ?
it's even worse than I pictured
@Den you mentioned that this was the most common ad right??
@๐Boo-ton๐ just wrote this op-ed
read it
I wrote it in a hurry, so if there's any errors, let me know
Yes this add was played all the time
@Den it's grating on the ears
holy shit
do you think Saccone would have won were it not for this ad
@๐Boo-ton๐ good job on that article btw
hopefully we reach a large nationwide audience and get a bully pulpit
so that politicians (possibly even Trump) hears our advice
Probably should have different author names for each article instead of simply "by redstorm2018" for each article
When I return home I'll try to figure out how to configure that
Gen Z!
Even if 95%+ of White Gen Z Americans vote Republican, it'll still be competitive
Gen Z is 53% Non-Hispanic White
Not necessarily
The white vote still is extremely significant, currently remaining at 70% of the vote share even as the white population declines. We'll need to fix the white population as a whole, of course, but if we have them vote in a bloc as the minorities do, that will put us over, easily.
>most accepting of diversity
>last majority white generation
They're right about GenZ being very conservative but uh
I doubt that white kids are that tolerant.
At least in the South
Anywhere really
Whites are watching everything they've built being driven through with a wrecking ball with those doing it taunting us
If they are "conservative", there's not a chance in hell it's the fuddy duddy ben shapiro conservatism
Also I dunno if the younger people remember this but Obama (and McCain) accidentally radicalized a lot of us against "wealth redistribution".
When I was like 12
School lunches affected the youth, too.
1930 all over again
lol at the disclaimer
they should warn on NYtimes videos that it's owned by a Mexican citizen
Data from Morning Consult shows that Trump endorsements energize Democrats and depress Independents
But as seen with Rick Saccone, his campaigning provides a boost among the Republican base.
He's got to bring his approval up
It's ticking up.
Parkland really hurt us.
But as that fades from the public's consience, the positive trends that we saw in early 2018 will come back.
The march on Washington is this Saturday.
The one by the parkland kids?
Are they doing that?
They're trying to squeeze every last political point.
But the great public attention span will keep them away from this.
@FLanon @Pielover19 if a shooting occurs within a month of the midterm, we're losing
Maryland was nearly that but the resource officer got him so they cannot touch it as much.
Any massive school shooting right before the midterms will be suspicious.
Nah, nobody will question it
Theyโll just go along with everything even if itโs some sort of Illuminati deep state plant
@๐Boo-ton๐ Reuters/Ipsos has it at Democrats+3
!
Whatโs up?
Holy shit this is good news! Also his approval is at 44% when you just look at registers voters
Very nice, weโll have them yet.
Parkland canโt shill us now.
can't wait to see /r/BlueMidterm2018's reaction
in response to the +6 poll, one of them was like "I'd feel bad about this were it not for the fact that we won in PA-18 and Alabama"
We would win the election if it was held tomorrow.
So much for being on the wrong side of history.
Like they so often claim.
7 point RCP average?
Hmmnmm
Just 0.1 points less and Dems have less than 50% chance of taking the House
Pretty whitepilling
thing is, things can swing back up for the Dems
like....it's still too early
who knows how many shootings and bombings will happen before November for them to capitalize on
Nothing matters til October
But this shows how elastic the American electorate really is
>yfw it's +20 Republican on November 5
But yeah,
We'd win if the election was held today
@Den I think you should write an op-ed about the fact that you're friend tried to get Saccone to properly campaign, only to be dismissed, later leading to Saccone's loss
(voter fraud or not)
(and this is for the redstorm blog)
My ruling on the spending bill:
Veto worthy
OR
Trump should at least use signing statements to gut the bill to the extent it is necessary.
Yeah, it's too big to fix
Yeah, the funding for the Wall is insufficient due to its being bundled with overall border security funds.
If it were just $1.6B for a wall outright it would be OK
But it's $1.6B for everything
Hmm
I don't know much about the PA Gov race.
Ask him the Rep Steve King question
Re-upping. The big Ryanesque spending bill isn't as bad as I thought last night. It's worse. Forbids hiring more ICE agents. Limits detention beds, making "catch & release" more likely. Call 202 456-1111 if you want to urge Trump to veto
Make sure to advise the candidate on how to campaign, how Saccone lost, etc
Perhaps ask if he intends to rally potential Amish voters
Saccone was a lazy candidate that was anti union in Pennsylvania. I dont know why the party put up such a bad candidate
@Den yeah, emphasize the fact that Saccone ignored our advice and LOST
that's the most important thing...oh, and TELL HIM TO TELL EVERY OTHER R POLITICIAN HE KNOWS THAT THEY SHOULD NOT CAMPAIGN LIKE SACCONE
The issue is the Rs don't flood the fields where they should
They should've had a good electable candidate over in IL-3, we got a neo-nazi.
@๐Boo-ton๐ Even worse, it actually influences America's foreign policy in a negative direction with regard to Russia; not a single Nay from the Democrats!
so basically
1. Talk about how Saccone ignored our advice and lost, then emphasize that he shouldn't do it that way, and that he should tell all the other GOP politicians he knows to NOT campaign that way
2. The 'Steve King' question (not sure what this is
3. Rallying Amish voters
4. the importance of Immigration as an issue to GOP voters
These people are so stupid
This will not get them reelected
Target abortion actually
The Steve King question is "Can you restore your civilization with someone else's babies?" Their answer to that lets you know if they actually want to put America First.
They should run on a balanced budget amendment to be honest
This is what got a lot of the current members of congress elected on the anti-obama wave in 2010, balancing the budget, stopping the national debt.
IMO other than job creation and to a lesser extent budgetary balance, Republicans should stay silent on the state level.
Social issues take a higher precedent, especially when they can integrate with economic issues.
For instance, "Balance the budget by cutting abortion funding!" is actually going to be effective.
Abortion shouldn't be overemphasized, but really, to me, immigration isn't really a state issue, even though it can be effective as John Bel Edwards proved in Louisiana.
Yeah, but these omnibus bills where they capitulate on everything don't help them
If you can incorporate it, do that. But you usually can't.
For "conservatives" they sure are making a ton of concessions.
Yeah, the budget bill is just bull.
It's basically "Let's fund abortion to increase the deficit!"
If you want to compromise on economic policy, do it by encouraging families and children.
Call your reps
This thread by the randlet sums it up pretty well:
https://twitter.com/randpaul/status/976909053870911488?s=21
Yeah, this bill is awful.
Why the fuck are we spending money to destroy weapons
Yeah yeah "muh human rights" but the fuck
We're taking away our own arms stockpile at the cost of the taxpayer
We should've cut military spending, really
The thing with chemical weapons is that you have to spend money to maintain or destroy them.
Otherwise you can accidentally use them on the public
That's fair, but in that case why develop them at all
Some benign diseases, most notably Lyme disease, are actually believed to be the result of US chemical weapons making it out of labs.
And the Arms Race during the Cold War involved building enormous amounts of them just in case we needed a way to destroy, say, a billion people without nukes.
They were actually used until George H.W. Bush, basically.
Lyme disease was basically developed to serve as a nuisance to make enemy troops unable to fight so we could capture them and torture them.
In all likelihood
I have no clue why Trump is putting so much money into the military, the only justifiable reason I could think of is if he's preparing to solidify control and make himself the King of America
I wouldn't be too opposed to that tbh
@FLanon military industrial complex
Supposedly it's because he can't get the funding to control the border so he has to make us safe using an alternative means
but more realistically, California has started its own navy
They're getting into more BS with the USG.
We might be facing a civil war.
Hey, we'll have to see
What
this bill is a fucking tragedy
Yeah.
Seriously Blue Wave going to happen now lol, what is trump doing to run on
wall, no
obamacare repeal, no
cutting nigger gibs, increased no
chain migration all good to go
Vias increased
VETO
Whatโs going on?
I'm glad they at least ditched the even worse proposals Democrats wanted to include.
It could've been even worse.
But the GOP needed to pass a better bill.
The House of Reps basically just unanimously passed a far-left budget.
Youโre kidding me?
Come on man we were doing so good with the white pills recently
It's even got Schumer's pet projects, but there's not enough Wall funding.
don't look at me buddy @GermanEastAfrica
And there's a hiring freeze for ICE
i'm not the one blackpilling today
For today
lol worthy disclaimer
I know, itโs just a bummer when things were looking up and now this happens.
according to polls,
It's also got provisions that prohibit use of funds to punish Ukraine for meddling in our elections (or doing _anything_ wrong to us)
most Americans no longer care about the deficit
LOl hireing freeze for ICE?
I'm done
And it's also got mandatory lethal aid to the Ukrainian military, amounting to a significant increase in their military budget.
Fucking Republican Party cucks, they can never do anything but be bottom.
Is this thing through yet or is there still time to stop it?
@๐Boo-ton๐ I know.
The deficit is basically a 2012 issue.
I think that's dumb, but still, where's the wall funding, where's the cutting welfare programs? @๐Boo-ton๐
This budget doesn't even deal with Obama-era issues.
It only does 1980s neocon crap.
obamacare repeal cuts?
I don't understnad how foolish Republicans are
if there is a shutdown,
The Wall can be built but there's just not enough funds.
Democrats will be blamed
Noting happens.
Please tell me there can at least be someway to stop this.
Nothing happens in a shutdown lol
let the shutdown happen
until you get the wall
@GermanEastAfrica Vet ois the only way.
Welfare increases
I'm hoping Trump seeing the DOW plummting will make him change is mind.
Big funds for vets too but it's like
FUCK THIS
