NOT A BLUE OR RED BUT A MAGENTA WAVE IN 2018
Will the Democrats win a majority in Congress in 2018? Will Republicans maintain a majority or increase their majority? Is the media reporting facts or reporting what they wish to be truth in order to affect the elections? Why are so many Republicans leaving office?
THE BLUE WAVE: If you listen to the experts, the Democrats will win and win a big majority in the November 2018 elections. The reasons given are mostly based on wishful thinking and hatred of President Trump. There are many examples. One example is Dan Helmer who is running for office in Virginia and has an ad which states that during 911 the most dangerous man to America lived in a cave (showing a photo of Bin Laden), and then says now the most dangerous man to America lives in the White House. Hate does not increase the hopes of the voters.
WHAT IS THE MAGENTA WAVE: When you combine blue and red you get magenta. Some like to say that the blue wave will run into a red wall. I believe that 44 Republicans are taking the red wall with them. I do believe that the blue wave will run into a wall, but it will not be a red wall, which is why I refer to the magenta wave. I believe that the magenta wave will crash into the blue wave and crush it.
WHAT WILL DEFEAT THE BLUE WAVE: When Clinton ran against Bush the senior during a town hall style Q & A someone in the audience stood and yelled at Bush, “It’s the economy stupid!.” Defeat of the Blue Wave will be a combination of actions by Trump. The tax bill and reduced regulations are the two biggest. Taxes will result in most Americans seeing an additional $2,000.00 in their pay check for 2018 due to less federal withholding. Most Americans will not realize the full amount of the tax benefit until they do their taxes in the spring of 2019. The other big positive is to business and that is federal deregulation.
DEMOCRATS ARE IRRITATING: Remember the majority of America (not popular vote – electoral) voted for Trump and Trump is delivering to them. Comments by Nancy Pelosi like – the tax cuts are just crumbs & the tax law is like a cherry on top of doggie dudu or you cannot arrest Illegal aliens unless they do something illegal. Then there is the IMPEACH 45 crowd led by Maxine Waters. Let’s not forget the Main Stream Media (MSM) which is fanning the Russia collusion, obstruction and Stormy Daniels stories. Each time a new story hits the headlines the MSM is breathless in their reporting building up false hope for liberals and claiming that this is the end of Trump.
REMEMBER WHAT OBAMA SAID: President Obama was asked about manufacturing jobs during the 2016 presidential campaign and criticized then candidate Trump, “When somebody says like the person you just mentioned who I’m not going to advertise for, that he’s going to bring all these jobs back. Well how exactly are you going to do that? What are you going to do? There’s uh-uh no answer to it. He just says. “I’m going to negotiate a better deal.” Well how? How exactly are you going to negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually the answer is, he doesn’t have an answer.”
During a fund raising swing through California President Obama asked Steve Jobs, “What would it take to make iPhones in the United States?” According to another dinner guest Steve Jobs said, “Those jobs aren’t coming back.”
Americans by nature are optimistic and have an in-bred can do attitude and this type of rhetoric is defeatism. But this is the discussion that Democrats put forward. Elizabeth Warren says,”You did not build that!” Democrats like to push you cannot succeed without government, BIG GOVERNMENT! The Magenta people do not buy into this and it irritates them.
REPUBLICANS LEAVING WITH THE RED WALL: As of today 44 incumbent Republicans have announced retirement or they will not run again. All have great reasons. In my opinion at the CORE of the majority of the decisions is that they are not comfortable with President Trump. When Trump tweets – the MSM asks Republicans what they think – they feel obligated to respond rather than just saying – look at what we accomplished. The other reason they are leaving was highlighted with the failed repeal of Obama Care vote, when the Republicans majority was not able to repeal even though they had voted to repeal numerous times before. Now they have a President that will do what he promised and these Republicans are revealing what they truly believe.
Remember all politics are local, if each candidate is vetted properly what will emerge after November 6, 2018 is the Magenta Wave of Trump supporters in congress.
TRUMP MAGA: Trump is bringing back manufacturing, mining and fossil fuel. America is producing so much fossil fuel that America is again an exporter of oil. It is a combination of tax reform creating enough cash flow for business owners to add employees and purchase modern equipment. The other big part of the manufacturing growth is the removal of the many choking Federal Regulations.
MINORITY SUPPORT OF TRUMP: Unemployment for Blacks, Hispanics and women is at an all-time low. I have a bet with a fried that during the 2020 elections Trump will get more than 20% of the Black vote even if Eric Holder runs. At the end of May 2018 unemployment for Women was 3.4%, Hispanics 4.7% & Blacks is 5.9% which are all time lows. I believe that more minorities will start businesses during this boom.
ALL POLITICS ARE LOCAL: How will you help build the Magenta wave? Get involved and vet your local candidate. Meet and ask questions of your local state representative, local congressman and your local US Senate candidate. Do they truly support things that you want? Do they support what Trump is trying to do?
MILLENIALS NEVER SAW PROSPERITY: Help wanted signs are everywhere. That is something that Millennials have never seen. Millennials have never experienced Capitalism and true economic growth. Millennials have grown up believing that the American Dream was something that their parents, Grandparents & Great Grandparents experienced but would never be available to them. Businesses are investing in their companies by upgrading equipment and adding workers. There is a shortage of workers which will result in what Socialist, Democrats and Progressives have been advocating, increased wages. I also believe that many Millennials will also start their own businesses.
WHO & WHAT CREATES MAGENTA: Because of the increased participation in the work force by Blacks, Hispanics, Women and, Millennials this group will look at their reality, not the MSM directed reality. This group is intelligent and will realize that the Big Government crowd has lied to them and that capitalism does work. Many in this group will start their own business. Added to this are some Democrats that do not buy the malarkey and also Independent voters that face reality rather than what they are told to believe. It’s the economy stupid.
SOCIAL REACTON: There are social media leaders in the minority community that are speaking in favor of Trump. There are always the Sharpton & Jacksons of the world that got rich keeping minority people dependent or to put it another way promoting 21st century slavery and getting rich off of the backs of the people they claim to represent. The people that have been keeping minorities dependent also assume that minorities are ignorant and cannot decide for themselves. People will vote their pocket books.
