I 100% think that if Trump made a live appearance at VA during Gillespie or AL during Moore, they most certainly would have won instead of putting out some tweet saying "hey guys vote"

2018-01-18 23:10:05 UTC  

That's how he gets turnout

2018-01-18 23:10:22 UTC  

We need Trump to be an activist for his party this year, an asset.

2018-01-18 23:10:26 UTC  

Gillespie actually rejected an offer by Trump to rally for him

2018-01-18 23:10:56 UTC  

Still, the principle stands

2018-01-18 23:11:10 UTC  

That was certainly a stupid move to make

2018-01-18 23:11:22 UTC  

You need all the awareness you can get

2018-01-18 23:11:24 UTC  

good thing Trump rallied too, his voters are concentrated in that district

2018-01-18 23:11:57 UTC  

small, white towns everywhere

btw guys, have the discussion in the thread so that it bumps it and keeps it from getting slid

2018-01-18 23:12:34 UTC  

He needs to pull all the rallies possible

2018-01-18 23:12:46 UTC  

He's got to be able to get 2016 levels

2018-01-18 23:13:38 UTC  

Here's my prediction: GOP wins, but because of massive Dem fundraising they do better than normal, which leads to them saying "durr here's further proof of le blue wave"

2018-01-18 23:14:09 UTC  

(that's what happened for all the other special House elections. GOP wins, but Democrats do better than usual because of massive amounts of $ and media attention)

2018-01-18 23:14:13 UTC  

I have no clue what the RNC is planning

2018-01-18 23:14:18 UTC  

that's the fucking thing

2018-01-18 23:14:37 UTC  

I can picture a blue wave happening if the RNC continues to sit on their ass

2018-01-18 23:14:38 UTC  

There's the possibility they're lazy retards

2018-01-18 23:14:42 UTC  

Paul Ryan has earned 44 million dollars this year in donations

2018-01-18 23:14:48 UTC  

he better spend in on the race

2018-01-18 23:15:10 UTC  

Is it his to spend or the party's to spend

2018-01-18 23:15:14 UTC  

@FLanon there's also the huge possibility that because they're establishment politicians, they'd rather let Democrats win than have Trump win

2018-01-18 23:15:25 UTC  

he can direct it to the RNC

2018-01-18 23:15:26 UTC  

of course

2018-01-18 23:15:36 UTC  

or spend it on his own campaign

2018-01-18 23:15:47 UTC  

they'd rather be the minority party than be the majority party with responsibilities

2018-01-18 23:15:50 UTC  

the second one probably

2018-01-18 23:15:57 UTC  

when they're the minority party, they also will be called racist less often

2018-01-18 23:16:09 UTC  

all they can do is block

2018-01-18 23:16:20 UTC  

ffs we need good offense

2018-01-18 23:17:05 UTC  

The main hope I have for this year isn't in the party itself to campaign well, but for Trump to do something massive and/or campaign with a ton of energy

2018-01-18 23:17:40 UTC  

I think I get the RNC's strategy

2018-01-18 23:17:48 UTC  

they're going for a full-scale offensive in the Senate

2018-01-18 23:17:58 UTC  

save money, spend it on the US elections

2018-01-18 23:18:01 UTC  

I recognize it

2018-01-18 23:18:03 UTC  

but a hunkered down defense in the House

2018-01-18 23:18:17 UTC  

I think it's a terrible idea

2018-01-18 23:18:29 UTC  

money is good, but guerilla campaigning is better

2018-01-18 23:18:46 UTC  

this isn't a contest of "whoever racks up the most shekels wins"

2018-01-18 23:19:08 UTC  

remember Clinton always

2018-01-18 23:19:21 UTC  

Oof, Clinton blew 1.2 billion
