    The Dems wont win the House in 2018. They will run on the same identity politics they have run on since Bill Clinton, but without the charming messenger or the history making candidate. As soon as the Democrats craft a populist message that takes into account the largest 2 voting blocks, white males and females, in the country, they will win.

    That's a very silly analysis. The last Democrat to win a majority of the white vote in a Presidential election was LBJ. It's white people who practice identity politics and have a for a half century.

    I'd say that description of Bill would make YF angry enough to break his IPad, but...

    His poll numbers would undoubtedly be much higher if he weren't an incompetent orange dung hill.

    Surely someone has tied this to George Soros by now.

    Rick Gates pleaded not guilty while represented by a public defender who said he intended to hire a private attorney. That means Gates was blindsided by these events (or else he would have been locked and loaded with private counsel). It also suggests Gates initially spoke to the FBI without a lawyer.

    That goes without saying. He (and other "Globalists") are behind all of it. And the Freemasons.

    As a percentage, white voters are the most likely to vote for either party. African Americans vote over 80% and generally close to 90% for democrats. That's identity politics. Hispanics voted 66% for Hillary against the most racist and xenophobic candidate since the Know Nothing Party of the 19th century. And that's still a greater percentage of white voters than voted for republicans.

    There's no prize for Trump voters who voted for a insane asshole. But when 90% of one group is married to one party and 66% of another group is married to the same party, that's identity politics.

    You don't have to win a majority of 'em. Just quit repelling 'em.

    Papadopoulos cut a plea deal in exchange for flipping. So someone higher up is also getting charged eventually. And he wouldn't have been a source on anything relating to Manafort's money laundering.

    Of course the moral thing to do would be to turn on Trump. But since that isn't an option, apologist better be careful where they draw their "it isn't like he was X level involved" lines in the sand.

    Still a better interpretation of the genre than Atlas Shrugged
