That blue wave may not be materializing this November after all. Following Hillary Clinton’s upset loss, the Democrats refused to even consider that they had a rotten candidate and an unpopular message that was rejected by Americans at the ballot box.
Instead, they didn’t bother to bring in new leadership (outside if incompetent fools like Tom Perez) or engage in outreach to the white working-class voters in the Rust Belt but rather they doubled down on divisiveness.
Since November 9, 2016, the blue jackass party has engaged in a scorched earth campaign of pitting Americans against each other on racial and gender lines and mixed that in with the lunatic fringe conspiracy theories that President Trump is a secret agent for the Kremlin.
Following losses in a number of special elections last year – one of which they pumped a record amount of money into – the Dems continued to lose. There was the glimmer of hope after winning the Virginia gubernatorial race as well as getting many transgenders into office across the country and the brutal kneecapping of Roy Moore in Alabama, but it is fools gold.
According to a new poll, that big advantage in the midterms that Democrats and their media toadies have been thumping their chests over has all but dissipated.

Via The Washington Examiner “Democratic lead in generic House ballot collapses from 15 percent to just 2 percent: Poll”:
Republicans are gaining on their Democratic counterparts in the generic House ballot, a new poll published Wednesday found.
Democrats maintain a lead over the GOP on the generic ballot, with 47 percent of registered voters saying they’d support Democratic candidates over Republicans if the election were held today. Forty-five percent of voters would support GOP candidates, according to a Monmouth University Poll.
That latest figures for the generic ballot are a marked shift from December, when 51 percent of voters said they would back Democrats, compared to 36 percent who would cast ballots for Republican congressional candidates.
“The generic Congressional ballot is prone to bouncing around for a bit until the campaign really gets underway later this year,” Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute, said. “But Democrats who counted on riding public hostility toward the tax bill to retake the House may have to rethink that strategy.”
Republicans are eager to tout the benefits of their tax bill, which was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Trump last month. But Democrats argued the legislation would benefit wealthy Americans and big corporations.
Since the passage of the tax bill, though, a number of major companies have announced new benefits for employees, including bonuses of up to $1,000 and increases to their respective minimum wages, which they attributed specifically to the GOP’s tax reform.
Aside from the race-baiting, the lies, the ridiculous regurgitated sex scandals and RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! the Democrats really may have blown it by their reaction to Trump’s State of the Union address.
Let’s look at just a very small sample of the monumental stupidity that is going to bite them in the ass come November.

It is probably also not a good idea when you have freaks like this as your spokespeople:

Church … family … police … military … the national anthem … Trump trying to call on all the tropes of 1950s-era nationalism. The goal of this speech appears to be to force the normalization of Trump on the terms of the bygone era his supporters are nostalgic for. #SOTU

Paul Joseph Watson put together a short video on exactly why Democrats are their own worst enemies.
As the poet George Santayana once famously put it “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it” and it wasn’t very long ago that….
