| ...The biggest potential mistake the Democratic party can make is to imagine that "America's angry year" was created by Trump; that by stopping him they will have won their war. The RAND history survey suggests this is unlikely. It is the long term trends that will be decisive. Elites facing an insurgency often discover the need for strategic patience and solutions only long after their overconfidence has doomed them to defeat. |

| #8 #2 Yet despite the outward Democratic confidence there are worries that the white voter impis may outflank the firing line. Whahahahaha And don't forget this bit: The more perceptive Democratic strategists are worried Hillary might be caught on the horns of a dilemma. Military history geekiness FTW. |

| #3 "the protesters parked their cars in the middle of the road, unfurling banners with anti-Trump slogans and chanting 'Trump is hate.' The disruption caused a lengthy traffic backup, and drivers honked their horns in frustration." "Trump is Hate" The George Orwell estate is owed a huge royalty check from the Left for providing the manual of their political actions. For the Left there is no intellect, only power. |

| #1 In the words of Yen Lo in The Manchurian Candidate: "I forget that yours is a young country and your attention spans are short." The self-anointed elites in the US are not even paying attention to what is happening around them. The "angry" ones they cluck their tongues about are living the realities of it all every day. |
