GOP only has 51, IIRC. Hey Alabama, hows Doug Jones (D-AL) working out for you so far?

So, lose Murkowski (I-AL) (Idiot-Alaska), and it's a 50-50 tie. Add Manchin who wants to keep his job in a heavy pro-Trump state, and that puts you back at 51, assuming Flake doesn't change his mind....again, which is a significant possibility.

It ain't over 'till the fat lady sings.

Since the people of AL are stupid enough to believe the exact same hit job tactic they used on Judge Moore, they probably support Jones' no vote on Kavanaugh. Doug Jones probably IS voting the way his constituents want, ironically.

Those are anti-Kavanaugh protesters. Do you really think pro-Trump/pro-Kavanaugh folks would be out waking up people in a residential neighborhood?

These people are using the Alinsky tactic:

Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

Truly, I think the only way this will end is if Trump supporters start doing this very thing to individual leftist protesters. Show up at their residences. Show up at their jobs holding signs. Pick them out individually. Freeze it. Personalize it against individual protesters, and friggen' harass them 'till the cows come home.

It won't work.

Conservatives can never use the alinsky tactics against the left.

The media would paint them to be the aggressors and the libs as the victims. And they would make it stick. Every single time.

You can't win against that.

I'd like to do it anyway, because fuk these people.....actions should have consequences.

This is what actual grass roots looks like. A Houston area homeowner shot dead two black illegal alien Columbians who were robbing his Vietnamese-American neighbor's house, while on the phone with 9-1-1. Horn walked out as they were leaving the house with a bag of loot, told them to stop, they advanced toward him, and he killed both, one shot each with a 12 gauge.

Of course the local SJW activist was incensed and they marched on Horn's house in a quiet Pasadena, TX neighborhood. This video shows the response.


The activist, a former drug dealer turned Muslim and activist, as well as his useful idiots were run out.
