Blue wave vs. red tide for Congress
Ormond Beach, Fla.: The predicted blue wave was tempered by a red tide of voters who do in fact care about the economy and who can see the positive results of Republican leadership these past two years. Barack Obama’s attempts to convince people that he is responsible for the economic gains of the past two years shows that today’s voters are not gullible and want their politicians to do what they promise and show results. Telling voters that their health care and social security are threatened by Republican leaders has also lost its effectiveness.
The American people do not want higher taxes, or unprotected borders and illegal immigration, and they are tired of the identity politics and divisiveness of the left and the incivility it has shown the past two years. Many do not like Trump’s tweets or his abrasive manner but see that he delivers what he promises and that his policies have helped revive a stagnant economy. Voters want results more than political correctness. Until the left understands this and comes up with something other than bashing Trump and trying to obstruct everything the Republicans try to do for our country, they will remain out of touch with the American people.
