Are we getting any benefits from the "unraveling" of the Republican party?

[question everything]

The pundits are full of dissecting the Republican party, Whiny Donny, traditionalist, young Turks, teabaggers, etc. Predicting how they will be hurt but, I admit, I don't see the Democrats winning much, or coming with new message that will get working class people, who voted for Whiny Donny, stop and say; oh yeah? This is something I want to hear.

At least, this is my impression. Hope there are better observations here.

1. No, means nothing if they vote lock step

2. We get a new American fascist party that has the advantage

Of already controlling every branch of government and a large chunk of the media.

And regarding 2018, don't kid yourself: they will not give up any of that without pulling every cheat in the book, and probably violence as well.

3. Shudder... (nt)

4. There are so many things coming to a head

in America and the world that I don't think anyone can predict what will happen. People use the past to predict the future, but at times like this, when something new is emerging, the recent past is an unreliable guide. You have to look at major historical events that took everyone by surprise to get a sense of it - The Reformation, The French Revolution, the 1929 Stock Market Crash to get a sense of it.

7. Centennial of the Bolshevik Revolution coincides with the mid-terms.

Coincidence?

5. I recall something Gandalf said about the tiff between Mordor and Isengard...

"The winner will emerge stronger and more evil," or something to that effect.

Dems need to focus on our own house and overcome some of the overblown reports of in-fighting on the left.

6. It should be very obvious the difference of the last 8 years with this one.
