President Trump could flip Minnesota -- a state that has been blue since 1972 --  because of a mishandled coronavirus response and continuing civil unrest in Democrat-run cities, GOP Senate candidate Jason Lewis said Saturday.



OMG, a GOP candidate says his state could flip!




Let's go!!!!!!!!!

Most on this forum have no problem with this, sadly -

Poor lass had her options for vehicular homicide checked by pedestrians. Terrifying.

Drive around protests, and generally do not cross picket lines unless you know and understand the demands of that particular demonstration and want to show your disagreement with its aims.

  A British tar is a soaring soul,
As free as a mountain bird,
His energetic fist should be ready to resist
A dictatorial word.

His nose should pant
and his lip should curl,
His cheeks should flame
and his brow should furl,
His bosom should heave
and his heart should glow,
And his fist be ever ready
for a knock-down blow...

The president has been a powerful bulwark against Islamism and a supporter of millions of vulnerable Muslims around the world.

Muslims who Trump has backed include those surviving the rampage of terrorists groups such as ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Taliban, Al Qaeda and other radical Islamists. Far from being an “objectifier” of Muslims, President Trump has been a powerful advocate for Muslims by combating radical Islam throughout the greater Middle East.

Trump has taken a refreshing rapprochement with the Sunni Arab world after eight years of marginalization by the Obama administration that favored the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood


The U.S. president received an astonishing reception at the 2017 Riyadh Summit by leaders of 55 Muslim-majority nations during his welcome to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, hosted by King Salman. And Trump has intensified pressure on Shiite Islamist Iran, which waging a covert proxy war with several Sunni Arab states.

In addition, President Trump ordered the remarkably bold and timely assassination of Iranian spymaster and legendary commander of the elite Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Qassem Soleimani, the second-most powerful figure in Islamist Iran.

Trump also proposed the Israeli-Palestinian Peace Deal that offered over $50 billion in investments into the economy of a nascent Palestinian state. And he recently forged the Abraham Accords to lead to normalized relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates — the first such peace agreement between Israel and an Arab nation in 26 years

Pence was a Cruz supporter before he backed Trump ...

Paul Manafort brought in Pence.

You give him too much credit. Kiid expels through his mouth whatever is inserted through his rectum. He used to do it at parties. Now he can’t stop. It makes him a one trick pony.

“It never pays to settle these things, but many, many friends have advised me to pay,” Trump said, according to Cohen. “If it comes out, I’m not sure how it would play with my supporters. But I bet they’d think it’s cool that I slept with a porn star.”

Unions threaten work stoppages amid calls for racial justice

This kind of stuff makes me nervous.
The economy is already teetering, so it just feels like the wrong time.  And gives Trump ammunition against the Radical Left.  A one or two day work stoppage is fine to protest, but a prolonged set of strikes ... ugh.

They are doing what every sane American must do.

From the linked article,

“Are we striking tomorrow? No,” said Racine Educator United president Angelina Cruz, who represents teachers in a community that abuts Kenosha. “Are we in conversation with our members and the national labor movement about how we escalate our tactics to stop fascism and win justice? Yes.”
