Pollster friends of mine are telling me Republicans are gonna lose the House and maybe the Senate, because not enough traditional Republicans are gonna come out and vote. In other words, Mr. Trump has always had the support of MAGA Republicans, but the mistake at the Dallas Convention was not wooing so-called traditional GOPers. Well, I’m not sure what a traditional Republican is, or why any Republican, or for that matter any sane person, would want to vote in a bunch of Democratic party big government socialists.
With Miranda Devine, Ben Domenech, Newt Gingrich, David Malpass, Christina Skinner, John Carney and Hogan Gidley

A couple thousand words in today's New York Times about Democratic game plan if they win back Congress. By the way, I don't know if they will. According to the story, Dems are going to address the affordability crisis. Sure, they are. Last time, they addressed affordability with a $7 trillion big government socialist spending plan that led to a 21% cumulative inflation rise over four years. Now they are pledging, according to the New York Times, for lowering high costs of groceries and gasoline, and healthcare. You know how they're gonna do it, folks? Price controls.
“As soon as the war ends, you know, we beat the hell out of Iran as soon as the war ends and it'll end one way or the other very quickly”. So, I'll just say this. President Trump said this Tuesday night in Greenville, North Carolina. And as my friend and former colleague, former Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette told me last evening, quote, when he, meaning Trump, says he's going to do something, there's a pretty good doggone chance he's gonna do it. That means we're going to bomb Iran. Immediately after the election. To me, it's very clear President Trump has no interest in phony Iranian peace discussions or deals. He is well aware of their bad faith that they lie, cheat and steal their way through life as radical Islamists work to hold on to their own power aggrandizement.
Some new stories suggest that the Republican closing arguments for the midterm elections will focus on the riots in France. No question, this is a big threat to America, and a key risk in the elections. If the Democratic socialists reopen the border and let in another 15 million or more illegals, and if at the same time they destroy ICE, and police, and then take over the economy, with a $50 trillion Medicare for all plan that would reduce GDP by nearly 15% and crush wages by 28%, according to the Council of Economic Advisers – then we will wind up being like France. And that is devoutly to be avoided.
Newt Gingrich and I have been talking about so-called Democratic affordability, and the big government socialist mantra of medicare for all, which basically means if you like your healthcare plan, you won’t be able to keep it. $160 million some odd workers have employer-based healthcare and they like it, but they will lose it under the socialist proposal to nationalize the healthcare system. The Council of Economic Advisers estimates that to cost roughly $50 trillion over 10 years.
Slotkin's point is to bring political prosecution to young Republican staffers working for the president.
