2018-01-14 21:50:18 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

this is adHgM/4V

2018-01-14 21:51:13 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

yes, 2nd gen American

2018-01-14 21:51:40 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

can trace my parents back from Northern Spain though

2018-01-14 21:53:35 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

district 16

2018-01-14 21:54:33 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

still going to try my hardest, after Moore you can never try too hard

2018-01-14 21:55:10 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

yeah that'll be pretty close

2018-01-14 21:56:19 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

polling in FL has Scott and Nelson pretty close, so I'm sure it's achievable

2018-01-14 22:02:42 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

potential I think

2018-01-14 22:02:56 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

Trump's pushing him to, definitely

2018-01-14 22:03:54 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

not really anyone with more name recognition than the governor, he's a bit of an immigration pushover though

2018-01-14 22:04:06 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

hopefully he'd fall in line if Trump tells him to

2018-01-14 22:10:17 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

trying to make this senate list, get to california, then get completely stumped

2018-01-14 22:10:54 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

everyone running doesn't even have a wikipedia page

2018-01-14 22:11:42 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I know it's basically suicide in that state, but it's so damn big is the thing

2018-01-14 22:12:09 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

you'd think there'd be someone, like a James Woods or something that'd put their hat in the ring

2018-01-14 22:12:31 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

s/he's still under potential candidates is the thing

2018-01-14 22:13:20 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I'll put him in then just to have someone I guess

2018-01-14 22:15:01 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I know, but you always want to be sure, after Moore, nothing can be certain

2018-01-14 22:17:47 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

this is why we need strict federal voter ID, the stuff people can get away with in cali's voting system is insane

2018-01-14 22:19:59 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

it's like that a lot up in New England, lot of union type voting for Ds

2018-01-14 22:21:19 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

hopefully one of these days if the GOP ends up being more like a worker's party like Trump's trying to make it, there'll be a few flips

2018-01-14 22:22:18 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

overrated

2018-01-14 22:22:30 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

open borders are a massive deal breaker

2018-01-14 22:23:19 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

definitely

2018-01-14 22:24:03 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

if they have an anti immigration position, I think that's really the only metric to care about

2018-01-14 22:24:16 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

my goal is to have RAISE passed

2018-01-14 22:25:25 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

yeah, Flake and Corker have really been the only ones who have posed an issue legislatively who are up this year, looking at Alabama, that should've never been lost

2018-01-14 22:27:11 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

his goal was to take out McConnell, but by just pushing Moore into the nomination and abandoning the campaign after the allegations, he's given McConnell more clout than he could've ever imagined

2018-01-14 22:27:57 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

now we're asking the question "is this guy going to be a risk" after what happened because of Bannon

2018-01-14 22:29:09 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

another thing, bringing the guy from Blackwater to run in Wyoming is such a ridiculous idea, what has he even done in the state

2018-01-14 22:29:48 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

the thing is, a lot of people had it in their heads that he was the voice behind MAGA, and that he was what won the campaign

2018-01-14 22:33:49 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I think that Trump's endorsement would've been enough to win Strange the primary, but the thing is at the time people had the idea that Bannon was a MAGA agent working outside the White House on Trump's command

2018-01-14 22:35:31 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

there's no real way of knowing now I guess

2018-01-14 22:36:00 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

he definitely shouldn't have watched football during that last weekend though

2018-01-14 22:37:00 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

during those last few days of the presidential campaign, Trump was fucking grinding it with those rallies, 4 states in a day, that's the mentality we need

2018-01-14 22:38:43 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

The rich who live in the suburbs watching Fox the whole time definitely stayed home in AL

2018-01-14 22:38:51 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

no question

2018-01-14 22:43:46 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

not by much though

2018-01-14 22:47:36 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

what did that video of the truck mowing down the kids actually scare them or something

2018-01-14 22:48:29 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

he's still popular within his base, which should be a sign

2018-01-14 22:49:09 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

our people should 100% make sure to go to the polls when they need to

2018-01-14 22:53:36 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

in primaries, recognizability is the most important factor, when it came to the dem primaries in 2016, who's more recognizable, the former 1st lady and secretary of state, or a senator from vermont

2018-01-14 22:53:46 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

same with the Rs

2018-01-14 22:55:31 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

fair enough, and I remember the wikileaks emails that showed that the media wanted trump to win to make sure that clinton would win, but the principle still stands for me

2018-01-14 22:56:35 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

take a look at FL polls for the primaries and the MI polls before Kid Rock dropped out, they blow the competitors in their own party by miles

2018-01-14 22:56:56 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

referring to Rick Scott in FL btw

2018-01-14 22:57:58 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

that's why we need to mold them

2018-01-14 22:59:04 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

outside of VA, sure

2018-01-14 22:59:28 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

it'd probably be over half not knowing in VA

2018-01-14 23:01:14 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

there's some overlap

2018-01-14 23:03:04 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I suppose, yeah, the typical normie who gets bombarded by media and entertainment 24 hours a day probably wouldn't be right wing though

2018-01-14 23:04:16 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I wish twitter would shut the fuck about him for a second though

2018-01-14 23:04:55 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

there definitely has been a real paradigm shift in the fact that there's more people involved in politics nowadays

2018-01-14 23:05:31 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

the twitter system itself is so manipulative and scummy

2018-01-14 23:05:55 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

man I wish Nehlen's bill was in effect

2018-01-14 23:09:45 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

the shallnotcensor bill he put up looks perfect

2018-01-14 23:10:12 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

it'd really even the playing field

2018-01-14 23:10:26 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

he definitely went all out

2018-01-14 23:11:27 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

not sure if that tactic is good enough, I don't think he has a great chance, but watching him speak live he seems amicable to the average person I think

2018-01-14 23:12:41 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

a shift in the overton window is much more effective when a person in elected office does it rather than a candidate

2018-01-14 23:14:36 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I mean, take a look at the shithole situation, you have people on Fox and average Trump supporters dissing Haiti, when they'd never dare to before he said it

2018-01-14 23:15:21 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

lol imagine if bernie did that

2018-01-14 23:15:55 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

that kind of stuff is good for fanfiction, but I wouldn't count on it realistically

2018-01-14 23:16:45 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

it's like those 4d chess guys who talk about mueller being a Trump agent, you have to take some things the way they are

2018-01-14 23:17:12 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

not everything is some machiavellian scheme

2018-01-14 23:19:47 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

they're both hated within their own party

2018-01-14 23:20:04 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I don't doubt it's possible

2018-01-14 23:22:30 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

Flake and McCain are risks when it comes to ordinary R legislation

2018-01-14 23:23:14 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

Ted stays on the ball when it comes to getting stuff done in the senate though

2018-01-14 23:38:32 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

lmao that's the one thing we can count on not happening

2018-01-14 23:40:59 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

one thing I think could give him the edge is the possibility of the clintons going down

2018-01-14 23:41:17 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

if it happens near the midterms I could definitely see it galvanizing a lot of Rs

2018-01-14 23:42:20 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

remember after the baseball game where the majority whip got shot

2018-01-14 23:43:24 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

normies associate party members with other party members, that kind of news could breathe some new life into the electiosn

2018-01-14 23:43:29 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

elections*

2018-01-14 23:45:19 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

point is, having the "swamp drained" would be a gigantic victory for the right wing in general and bring a lot of new excitement to those who voted against clinton they hadn't felt since the presidency

2018-01-14 23:45:24 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

it'd be the story of the decade

2018-01-14 23:46:24 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

no way of knowing until it happens

2018-01-14 23:46:51 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

until then, I'd focus on getting these people in office

2018-01-14 23:51:35 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

the thing is, how do we accomplish something similar w/ an R congress and president

2018-01-14 23:52:22 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

Trump definitely should have a strategy room for this, it's the most important thing possible between now and 2020

2018-01-14 23:53:45 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

this will get him a wall, RAISE, obamacare repeal, whatever he wants, he would fulfill so many campaign promises potentially with congress that much on his side if he breaks the amnesty coalition

2018-01-14 23:56:00 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

y'know, some day I may run if the opportunity arises

2018-01-14 23:56:16 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

there's so much damn potential that can be done nowadays

2018-01-14 23:57:14 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

kinda like the pic of Nehlen w/ a Five Guys wrapper, it brings him down to earth, right?

2018-01-14 23:58:55 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

the thing we have to figure out is how we get about channeling that grassroots energy into a party with a majority in Congress

2018-01-14 23:59:13 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

technically the amnesty coalition is the majority, but the Rs have the illusion of power

2018-01-15 00:00:14 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

we seem like the "establishment" now to the uninformed person, how do we turn it around?

2018-01-15 00:01:36 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I mean uninformed in the sense of watching MSM day after day, not really as apolitical

2018-01-15 00:01:49 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

misinformed would be more correct

2018-01-15 00:03:06 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

definitely

2018-01-15 00:03:26 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

the Trump physical energy rallies people like nothing else

2018-01-15 00:03:49 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I have no doubt that Moore would've won if Trump made an appearance in Alabma

2018-01-15 00:03:52 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

Alabama

2018-01-15 00:05:24 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

maybe we can try a reprisal on the Hillary effect? "hey you guys won Alabama, West Virginia is going to be just fine", something along those lines.

2018-01-15 00:06:13 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

maybe if the economy stays on Trump's side and the tax bill can allow them to flourish, they may turn more friendly to Trump?

2018-01-15 00:06:56 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

I tell you what, if someone in the last administration goes to prison, that'll bring fire right to the base

2018-01-15 00:08:04 UTC [Red Storm #midterms-discussions]  

maybe that'd be an ironic twist to Moore losing, that it brings more senate seats to the right than if he would've won
