Is anyone here in disagreement with the Democrat prediction of gaining house seats?

Please.

Hardly a day goes by without some liberal comparing Trump to Hitler or of accusing him of dog whistling to white supremacists.

If that isn’t fear mongering nothing is.

Obviously, Trump isn't like Hitler in many ways - but his manipulation of the masses is from the exact same playbook. He has done the "Reichstag fire" thing countless times.

Not so much fear mongering. More attune to lack of historical knowledge and intellect.
 
Only God Knows what will happen on Tuesday!

And Only God Knows if he really exists! I mean, if he don't, the joke was on us, right?

But anyway, my prediction is that because of the only Congressional seats up for election are those in our bloody red-ist states, and while the races there are so close that many Democrats will sweep into power in districts of the most populous areas in those red ass states.

The Democrats may not actually win all the Senate seats in all those states, but that is a lot of House seats- and it will clearly be enough to win back the power in the House.

And that will easily be enough to put the Monster-in-chief immediately into check!

Bravo! And we can only thank Donald Trump for our upcoming win!

He made it an easy win!

Well, you're certainly overplaying how much people do it. It's not pervasive - and like I said, his demagoguery is from the exact same textbook. It's valid to make the comparison on that level. We should learn from history, not ignore it.

I disagree.

What better way to instill fear into minorities than telling them Trump is a Hitler? And yes, it’s ahistorical and absurd. It’s also a gross insult to survivors of the Reich.
 
And don't forget demagoguery! If Trump's campaigning works, it's a huge victory for the power of fear.

Says the people with pundits on their side that tell us we should "fear" white guys and that Trump is the same as Hitler because he says stuff that hurts their feelings sometimes.

A bit generalizing. I didn't realize there were pundits "on my side."

But you're deflecting, regardless. Trump is a textbook demagogue. Every candidate engages in some fearmongering. Few candidates make it an art form.

my fav. fearmongering is on "nationalism". The have to dog whistle it up to "white nationalism"

When I say "no it's nationalism" ( as opposed to "globalism") they STILL have to fearmonger it up -
with "well the implication is white nationalism" no. no it's not. i even juxtaposed globalism for you.

But it's an ingrained taking point - they have to reflexively change it to be about race

I agree with your point. I think we are arriving at the same conclusion. If anyone knew the history of Hitler, they would see quite clearly there is no comparison at all to Trump and Hitler, or any American President for that matter. That comes down to the historical knowledge and intellect part of this.

There isn't "no comparison." They use the same exact techniques to manipulate a crowd - the same psychology.

Do you need to be reminded of Saul Alinky's rules?

  2. "Never go outside the expertise of your people."
  3. "Whenever possible go outside the expertise of the enemy."
  4. "Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules."

  6. "A good tactic is one your people enjoy."
  7. "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag."
  8. "Keep the pressure on."
  9. "The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself."
  10. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition."
  11. "If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside"

Few remember Hitler. Besides Trump equals Mussolini. That is where nationalism and corporations were merged into a government run by a brash and ruthless leader.
 
If Pubs lose House & take Senate I'll go to sleep, get up, make breakfast, work, make dinner, go to sleep, repeat every day and night...happily.
If Pubs win both the House & Senate ^^^ DITTO^^^
Either way I have no plans to throw bricks, light fires, obstruct traffic or move to Canada. :cool:

You're not part of the angry mob.

So you'll do all that impromptu?
Good. I admire spontaneity.

Don't forget to "fall back".

Mussolini sounds more like Hugo Chavez lol.

Learn your history before making such proclamations.
