The 10-Year Political Trend Doesn’t Point to a Blue Wave
Oct 16, 2018
RUSH: We’ve been hearing for the past how many months that there’s going to be a blue wave. There’s no question about it. There has been no question about it. The Democrat Party is poised to retake everything they can in this next election. Why? Well, the media tells us the American people are fed up.
After two years of Donald Trump, they realize the mistake they’ve made, they wish they could do it over, maybe take back their vote for Trump, and this is gonna be the first chance they’ve had to actually do that, and so the Democrats are gonna retake the House in a massive landslide, and at one point we’re gonna take the Senate. But if you look at the reality of voting patterns just in the past eight years, let’s say 10, there’s nothing in the world, using common sense, that augurs for a Democrat sweep or blue wave.
The trend in the past 10 years is Democrats losing elections left and right. And it all started with Barack Hussein O and 2010. Do you remember how many times I reminded you that during the first six years of Obama, you go through the 2014 midterms, the Democrat Party lost over 1200 seats nationwide, seats in the U.S. House, seethes in the U.S. Senate, statehouses, governorships. You even go to local offices like mayor or town councilman.
If you factor all of those races nationwide, the Democrats, after six years of Obama, had lost 1200 seats. They were losing everything. After the 2016 election, they continued to laws even more, and the dead-set lock to win in a landslide Hillary Clinton got beat in a near electoral landslide, Electoral College landslide. Another election where they were gonna sweep big. They were gonna wipe out the Republican Party once and for all. Hillary Clinton was going to be this winner. They had it.
They couldn’t have had it any better. This guy Trump won the Republican nomination. Somebody didn’t know what he was doing, a gigantic buffoon, a walking set of gaffes. They thought this guy would be easily swept away. They believed all their polling data. And we know what happened. They continued to lose to the point that after the 2016 elections, the Democrat Party had the least amount of power in terms of elected offices held in Washington, D.C. since the 1920s.
Now, the 2016 election was only two years ago. So from 2010, the first chance people had to vote after having stomached two years of the Obama administration, which, you want to talk about people wanting to get their votes back? You want to talk about people wishing they could do it over? You want to talk about people wishing they hadn’t voted the way they had? Go take a look at the 2010 midterms. Barack Obama single-handedly, my friends, has destroyed the electoral prowess of the Democrat Party.
