538 Exit Polls: 51% of Voters were White 45yrs +

The only demographic the GOP won big time.

A total 74% of The Vote was White
= Another Huge GOTV Failure

Beto was a weak candidate

Gillum was a weak candidate
The Clintons (both of them) were weak candidates



These days they wouldn’t have to shoot RFK in the head. A minor tweak to the voting machines would suffice.

When will we learn? I am living in a country - Australia- that would never think of giving up their paper ballots. Ask them about voting machines in GErmany.

'I work in the automotive industry. Trump's policies help me, help my family'

Live blog: Midterm election 2018 updates, news and analysis

"I work in the automotive industry and a lot of his policies actually help me, they help me and my family," he said. "The economy is great. The EPA rollbacks help us."

Patrick Eric Toth, a 51-year-old Michigan autoworker, told NBC News he voted for Democrats on Tuesday because Trump's anti-immigration rhetoric repelled him and Republicans haven't held the president accountable.

“I don't agree with the immigration stance. I don't. I think sending 15,000 troops to the border for these people coming from Honduras is embarrassing. I think that he lies. It's important to me."

"My wife is going to be upset that I canceled out her vote but I'd do it again," he said. "It's just important to me that somebody, as important as the president, is respectable and I don't think he is."

Not a traitor I guess. Trump is a dumb Nixon on steroids?

Nazis say 'Trump has woken the giant'

‘Strumfront’ (I am not going to use it’s web name) celebrated Trump calling himelf a Nationalist. Hurrah. Legitimacy for ‘supremacists’, a seat a the table, a gun at the Synagogue

It’s as if, the political pendulum swung so far to the left over the past few decades, that it’s finally swinging back to the right. Trump alone is proof of that fact. We as White Nationalists should be optimistic of the future as the momentum is in our favor. White America is beginning to awaken!

AGREE 100%!!! Trump has woken the giant!


‘Tomorrow belongs to me’

Trump Calls National Emergency

I am bringing out the military for this National Emergency. They will be stopped!

I flagged this as a potential Reichstag event and was howled down. Trump follows the NSDAP playbook to the letter. What I fear is a Border Incident - an ‘unintentional’ incursion into Mexican territory that sparks a major diplomatic crisis wiping everything else off the front page (other than Wall Street).

Mexico to Offer Visas to Caravan Migrants, but Only 100 a Day

Source: WSJ

TECUN UMAN, Guatemala—Mexican authorities have agreed to grant humanitarian and asylum visas to a caravan of 3,000 Honduran migrants massing at the country’s southern border—but the authorities also appear to be breaking up the group into smaller pieces.

Ambassador Luis Manuel Lopez Moreno said migration authorities will allow some 100 migrants a day in to review their humanitarian and asylum requests.

The move ensures the migrants can enter Mexico legally until their cases are resolved, which normally takes a few months. If their cases are approved, they will be allowed to stay in Mexico permanently.

However, the migrants will be free to roam in Mexico, the envoy said. That means nothing prevents them from heading to the U.S. border and trying to enter while their cases are being heard in Mexico.
