The left has been salivating to take back congress in a “Blue Wave” ever since their stunning defeat in 2016. We are going to make sure that it results in a Red Storm where they lose even more seats in the House and Senate.
The left has clung to the idea of a “Blue Wave" in order to give themselves hope - hope that they can bring more radicalized refugees to the United States so that we may suffer what Europe is going through, hope for an even greater souring of race relations so that even more neighborhoods are looted and burned to the ground, hope for more power for feminists to ruin your careers and industries and livelihoods, hope for more political correctness to strangle our freedom of speech, hope for more power to the establishment media to attack us for thoughtcrime, hope that they can take down President Trump - who is our hope at reversing the damage they've done over the past few decades. We are going to make their Blue Wave falter in the midst of a Red Storm.
The purpose of this thread is to provide Sup Forums a convenient guide to the 2018 midterms, and a platform to take action to achieve specific objectives that will prevent any semblance of a “Blue Wave.”
>Defeatist Black Pillers not welcome. Your mentality is for losers. We didn't need you in 2016, and we don't need you now.
>Shills not welcome. Your attempts are utterly transparent. You were wrong in 2016. You were defeated in all 5 House Races in 2017. Your only real victory was in Alabama, and that was when our guy was smeared as a pedo, got massively outspent, and got betrayed by prominent figures in the GOP. You won't be able to do that in every single race this year. We know the stakes are too high for that. On the other hand, legitimate dissenters of all types are welcome.

>state legislature elections are also important. There are too many of them to devote an entire post for each race, so look up the races for your local area. Be warned – tiny local races can be massively gamed by large amount of cash and GOTV efforts because people don’t tend to care about them as much, which means that a large enough group of butthurt leftists can be directed to win an election in a red-favored district because few people are keeping track of them

(COMMON OPPOSITION TALKING POINTS AND RESPECTIVE REBUTTALS)
“The first midterm always goes against the party in the Presidency”
Realize that "first midterm going against party in Presidency" phenomenon isn't some magical axiom that just happens, but is explainable through factors that can be altered in our favor
i.e.
>not getting complacent >getting voters motivated against the Democrats >a lot of fundraising >not listening to blackpilled faggots from cucked out countries >organization, which is what this general contributes to >voters who would normally vote Democrat realizing how fruitless it is >Trump’s base turning out in large numbers and high energy for MAGA candidates that Trump endorses
“B-but Alabama went blue! You have no chance! Blue wave imminent!”
Realize that it only went blue because of *severely* depressed Republican turnout due to pedo allegations and backstabbing from other GOP figures like Dick Shelby, Flake, McConnell, Ivanka, et al. Old ladies who get their news from local talk radio and FOX News thought the allegations were legit.
This year, there will be hundreds of races to focus on, which means pedo allegations and party infighting won’t be factors. We were outspent in Alabama by 7-to-1. The Democrats are running out of money while the GOP has saved up MASSIVE amounts.
We are going up against Debbie Stabenow. Michigan, as we all know, is one of the rust belt states that flipped to Trump in a narrow margin. This is going to be one of the most hard fought races in the election.
>67 Years Old, generic career politician type >Michigan’s first female Senator >Three termer; won in 2000 with 49.5% as an underdog, won in 2006 with 57% (year the Democrats took Congress because of dissatisfaction with warmongering neocon George W. Bush who they now praise because he doesn’t like Drumpf) , won in 2012 with 59%
This looks like a tough battle based on those numbers, but a lot has changed since 2006 and 2012.
>Stabenow has expressed support in regulating talk radio via a measure like the Fairness doctrine. >Stabenow has a "F" rating from both the National Rifle Association (NRA) and the Gun Owners of America for her consistent voting against pro-gun laws. She has an "A+" rating from the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. >In 2017, Stabenow, alongside Debbie Dingell, introduced a law that would make it illegal for people charged with misdemeanor stalking to buy guns. >Stabenow supported President Barack Obama's health reform legislation; she voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in December 2009,
Josiah Gomez
I’m not sure how much Trump voters in Michigan care about these topics (namely the Trump voters who previously voted Democrat). Any thoughts?
Read up on your primary candidates and REMEMBER TO VOTE. If you live in Michigan, mark this date on your calendar and get family/friends out with you!! >Stabenow made a cameo in the 2016 Zack Snyder film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice as the Governor of New Jersey, the state in which Gotham City is located in the DC Extended Universe.
“Michigan Trump voters care about jobs more than anything right now. Only state in the union that LOST population from 2000-2010, and that was because we got hit first and hardest by the recession due to the auto-collapse before it happened. That Michael Moore video where he talks about how people voted for Trump because they were fucked over for 30 years and they wanted to give a big middle finger to career politicians? Yeah that's pretty accurate. If you went into neighborhood bars when Trump was signing pro-miner XOs, or the day he tweeted at Ford and made them cancel a Mexico plant, there were people openly weeping. 500 manufacturing jobs is thousands in support/service jobs, and saves tens of thousands of people.
Stabenow is a bigger swamp monster than Hillary, she's been fucking up our state since the 70s. The easy win is to do like Trump did "she's got loads of experience, BAD experience" but it'll require a lot of help from Trump himself, and a good jobs outlook to unseat her”
>65 years old, generic career politician >first elected in 2006 with 56% of the vote, reelected in 2012 with 50.7% of the vote
Ohio is a state that went from voting for Obama in 2008 and 2012 to voting for Trump in 2016 with a pretty comfortable margin. Shitty Sherrod Brown knows he’s in deep shit. The Democrats know he’s in deep shit. They’ll be spending massive amounts of cash in this race, and so will the GOP.
>He voted in favor of the 2012 NDAA that sparked controversy over indefinite detention of US citizens
>Brown consistently votes in favor of gun control, which has earned him a "F" rating from the National Rifle Association (NRA). He has repeatedly criticized congress, Republicans, and the NRA for making little to no effort in gun law reform. >Brown supported the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, voting for it in December 2009 >In 2011, in the National Journal’s annual rankings, Brown tied with eight other members for the title of the most liberal member of Congress. >The Washington Post reported that no candidate running for reelection, save Barack Obama, faced more opposition in 2012 by outside groups. As of April 2012, over $5.1 million had been spent on television ads opposing Brown, according to data provided by a Senate Democratic campaign operative.
Juan Nelson
All that money against him in 2012 and he still won. Granted, Romney was at the top of the ticket in 2012 and the country has changed a lot since then, especially Ohio. It’s a state that went from voting for Obama at a 3% margin in 2012 to voting for Trump at an 8% margin in 2016.
Any thoughts? I’ve never been to Ohio but I know many Sup Forumsiticians live there. How big of an issue is gun control for Ohio Republicans? I’m sure Obamacare pissed off a lot of Ohio Democrat voters.

>64 years old, generic lawyer turned career politician >first elected in 2006 with 49.6%, reelected in 2012 with 54.7%
Missouri is a solidly red state that Trump easily won. McCaskill faced someone named Todd Akin in 2012, who was under fire for making statements about how “legitimate rape” doesn’t cause pregnancy. It’s possible she would have lost in 2012 without that happening. Again, the country has changed quite a bit since 2012. This is going to be one of the easier battles, but one we still need to work hard at to win.
>McCaskill voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, popularly known as ObamaCare, in December 2009
>McCaskill has an "F" rating from the National Rifle Association (NRA) for her support of gun law reform
Missouri has a lot of gun loving southerners I’m guessing? Sounds like a point of vulnerability.
Any thoughts?

it's way too early. but here are some important factors:

>RNC has major geographic advantage (House election has more hardcore RNC districts than DNC) >staunchest Trump support in these hardcore rural districts >RNC has tax bill (and possibly other future moves) that broaden appeal to "middle America" >pundits predict ~42% Trump approval keeps GOP majority in House and Senate

The next big special election we must win is in Pennsylvania's 18th congressional district on march 13th. This district outside Pittsburgh went for Trump by nearly 20 points but the democrats have a strong candidate. We need to campaign hard for Republican Rick Saccone and get as many people out to the polls to vote for him as possible. There are no Amish in the 18th district but it is over 90% white.

I mean, if a miracle situation happens and we happen to get 2/3 of both chambers of congress it's possible, but it's not what we're shooting for. We need to get legislative achievements passed before 2020, a more sympathetic Senate and about the same House is needed for that.

That's one way to go at it. We've had good psyops tactics during 2016, draftourdaugthers was gold, the attempt to make people think that you could vote online was pretty funny, there's a lot of ways to go at it. I want to make sure the info is out there and that by the time we're nearing the midterms that we've already got a fighting plan figured out. Also, individually, participate for political campaigns, inform friends to vote, make sure to get this out there.
John Walker
What district? (regardless, make sure to vote anyways)
Adrian Butler
Roy Moore's defeat in Alabama taught us a very important lesson. We need strong candidates, we have to campaign hard, and we absolutely have to get out the vote. The 2018 midterms will be a very difficult election for Republicans and it is imperative that we begin organizing and campaigning now. We cannot afford to get complacent nor can we afford to underestimate our opponents. Maintaining Republican majorities and in the House and Senate is necessary to continue the MAGA agenda. Register to vote today and and get at least five friends and family members to vote.
Winning Issues: >It's the economy stupid! This is the number one issue normie voters care about. It may not be our big issue but this issue transcends all other issues for at minimum a plurality of voters. People vote with their wallets. The Trump economy is booming and with the recently passed tax cuts there's much more growth to come. >Immigration This is the issue that decides all other issues. Our country is being flooded with poor, uneducated, overweight third world people right as we sit on the precipice of an automation revolution that will disemploy tens of millions of Americans. We do not need more immigration. We do not want more immigration. We did not ask for more immigration. It's time to shut it down and put Americans first! >White minoritization Whites are being turned into a hated minority in our own country. The key to Republican electoral victory is getting out the white vote. And the key to getting out the white vote is making sure whites understand what's at stake and the danger they face. We need to bait the left into publicly expressing their hatred of whites and further pushing white voters into the arms of the GOP.
A possible psyop we could think of is maybe a redux of the #NoWhiteDemocrats campaign. Get some sockpupppet twitter black accounts and screech at all the whites to try to scare them off to voting R.
Ian Clark
I like this idea
Gavin King
Or to attack white Democrats for being white. #DemocratsSoWhite. We need to alienate whites from the coalition of the ascendant.
Sebastian Hernandez
Any 'tail eating itself'-esque psyop is usually effective.
Juan Robinson
As for candidates themselves, we should 100% prioritize electability. Meme candidates like Arpaio are fun and all, but after Moore we certainly don't want to risk states that are competitive or safe. Ideally a house of representatives member with a great voting record would be someone we would run for office. It's unfortunate, but it's the way it is, the Senate should be completely winnable by using this tactic.
Austin Anderson
This 100%. And not only focusing on electability but also getting behind whichever candidate wins the primary. There are lots of open-borders Republicans but at the end of the day they aren't anti-white Marxists like every Democrat that would replace them. Losing the election in Alabama taught us a critical lesson when there was only one seat at stake instead all of the seats. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise.
Dylan Howard
We can also use this Moore lesson to extrapolate something. No one is safe no matter how hardcore partisan the state is. Everything from Oklahoma to Massachusetts is fair game. One way we can use this to our advantage would be in Maryland. Bradley Manning intends to run for Senate there this season. If he gets to the primaries, that opens up interesting possibilities. If we can run a good R against him, potentially we can sneak that seat to our side for a good 6 years. If not, we get an utter progressive nutjob in the Senate who may soil the name of the Democrats for moderates.
Jayden Campbell

Adrian Jones
Of course. I know that Sup Forums was okay in supporting Moore in spite of the shills, but mainstream Rs certainly were knee-bending for miles. If you do that, the left walks all over you. Trump should've held a rally in Alabama before the election, that's a lesson he may have learned as well assuming he's not omnipotent and planned all this the whole time. Even McCain, as much as I hate him, still votes for Trump's judges.
