Democrats Lose Again: Are They On The Right Track?

Wednesday, June 21st, 2017

The answer must surely be no. For whilst the entire Democratic party in Washington is drunk on the Russia connection in all its forms and manifestation, prosecutors, investigations and committees, there is a country out there with people in it who need looking after. They are Americans, so they do not need spoon feeding and they are averse to too much Federal Government. So is spite of everything the core support of President Donald Trump remains firm. More people want to get rid of him if the polls are to be believed, yet when votes are counted it turns out not to be so. The Democrats mounted a huge campaign in Georgia to win a suburban congressional seat in Atlanta and in spite of spending record sums on their campaign, they lost. In South Carolina they lost again.

There are two Trumps in the White House. The wild card twitter junkie who says whatever pings through his head whenever, shocks the world, perplexes staffers, annoys the media and turns the Democrats into hysterics.  And there is the America First deal maker who quietly works away fixing things to make the lives of the ordinary people in the beating heartland of the American dream, better. Mostly it is done by Executive Order, but one way or another it is done and things are getting not just better, but much better.

So long as the deal making continues this way, no matter what the world across the oceans thinks, or what the pantomime on Capitol Hill does, Trump will move relentlessly forward through the mid term elections, on to 2020 and into his second term. The Democrats could stop him if they came up with a better plan. Likewise if pigs had wings they would fly.
