Surprise Trump House Victory – Establishment Republicans Lost the House Looking at the 2018 election results in detail, you will find some surprises including an important and subtle surprise Trump House victory. Contrary to some analyst opinions, Trump did not lose the House. In fact, Trump was not the cause of the loss of the House from Republican control to Democratic control. Similarly, there’s no reason for the Democrats to celebrate for too long because it is highly likely they will lose control of the House in 2020. If the Democrats didn’t really win the House and the House wasn’t…

Not a Blue Wave, Given Significant Senate Losses The 2018 Congressional elections turned out to be a zero wave election.

Does America want to  continue with our Constitutional Republic that focuses on protecting individual rights and liberties? Or, does America want to abandon the Constitution and create a socialist country instead? The Brett Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearings Shed Light on Today’s Reality The…

Conservative Red Wave is Growing as We Get Closer to the 2018 Congressional Elections The Conservative Red Wave continues to grow and build. While many on the Left have been talking about a Blue Wave since late last year, there is still no Blue Wave, no Blue Ripple, and no Blue Drip. As I have written before, even some Blue Bubbles (strongly blue Congressional districts) are bursting under the pressure from voters for: Support for President Trump’s successful policies Support for President Trump’s popular policies that are yet-to-be-implemented – for example – More tax cuts Better healthcare options Building a…
