My candor may get me swatted.

I have been a Republican since Reagen.

My thoughts on Trump were that he was the low hanging fruit, the drawer of fire from the left while the actual Republican got his or her act together. I was amazed that he got the nod, and I voted for him, 'cause damned well I was not voting for the female that I was sure was going to have me within a concentration camp within a year, had she the Presidency.

The "blue wave" label will be stuck on to any gain made in decision '18 by the socialists errr democrats. As much fools they have made of themselves, the ridiculous attacks of Justice Kavanaugh and President Trump.... In my biased opinion, their oceanic tsunami of a wave will be more sized to a guppy gas-passing in a mud puddle. If anything, the GOP might actually be reinforced.

Mind, this assumes an untampered-with process. Whether that happens is a conclusion best left to the reader.

The aftermath? Well, we already have Portland more or less in Antifa's hands after the installation of Justice Kavanaugh. I fully expect every national-level election that the soc- err Democrats lose to be contested, be it narrow margin or wide. With or without rioting, I can't say, save that Antifa et al has only pulled their shenanigans in fairly liberal venues.

Whatever you guys got to get done with preps, bugging out and/or sheltering in place, I counsel getting it done before the end of the month.

Mind, this could just be the frightened yammer of a scared old man.

But I bet a fair size % of prep families will be keeping kids @ home from school owing to "family emergencies" that happen the weekend before the election.

Me?
