But it's the line bolded above that really stands out. I'm sure Rome thought the same thing. So did Nazi Germany.

NO country is "invincible." For you to think otherwise shows an appalling level of ignorance about world history.
People cling to their talking points, Tom Steyer spends almost 3x as much ($42M) as Soros.

A few women corner Jeff Flake over Kavanaugh vote
Right Wing Media Buffon and his fans interpretation: The Democrats are resorting to mob rule.

Conclusion: Right Wing Media Buffoons hate liberals and Democrats and will exaggerate or lie about every event to try to gain political upper hand.
The women yelling at Flake in the elevator were seen 24/7 on every American news media outlet. So apparently you see all media as "Right Wing Media Buffon". Conclusion: You're... not exactly the voice of moderation.

I think that you got it backwards, its Trump and his partners in crime selling fear. It worked well for immigration, refugees and the media being the enemy of the state, his base eats it up. I don't think moderates are going to buy their claims of mobs, they have some problems in next months election and this just sounds like desperation.

It is the result of the spending spree, but what Republicans seem to forget is that the spending spree also includes several lefty groups going around door to door for MONTHS and getting people to register and try to woo them to the Dem side.

This is where Republicans have failed. We don't have people like that - not in those numbers, not that determined.

As I told someone else on here some days or weeks back, the right shouldn't be gloating at this time. Yes, more are aware of how disgusting the left has become, but what the right continues to fail to ever acknowledge and DO something about, is the millions of Americans who do not pay close attention to politics. They don't have a clue what the hell is going on.

So, someone knocks on their door, is all nice and courteous with them, encourages them to register, and then tells them all the bs that pukes out of the left's mouth day and night, and the clueless people who don't follow politics will eat that up if the right words are used - and one thing the Dems are good at is instilling fear into people by making things personal.

Do not get complacent thinking we have this in the bag. We don't. You and everyone you know has to get out and vote.

Its hilarious that the Left keeps mentioning Charlottesville: one time when a significant number of Right Wing protestors gathered, when the Left routinely organizes hundreds of thugs in Black masks to terrorize single individuals, small groups, and even passing motorists. If the Left hadn't show up to, again, start a violent confrontation in response to free speech rights then everyone would have survived that day.

When the Left stops supporting violent masked domestic terrorists who routinely batons and bear mace, and who assault people unprovoked and often as a mob, then we can talk about the justice of righteous mobs. Until then, expect this not to end how you think that it will.

And Vietnam protesters? Seriously, OP? What are you talking about, exactly? I don't get it.

Commies have no platform to speak to anyone about "ethics". You promote a porous border, unlimited immigration, no voter ID, felon voting, and welfare rewards for having children that people cannot afford as far more effective tactics toward increasing your voter base. You people wrote the book on dirty. GMAFB.

George does not have anything like the amount of money needed to fund even 10% of the things you guys claim he does.
In fact it this point it is just silly. Soros would need to be worth more than the Koch boys.



Meanwhile in just the last couple of years the Koch boys have spent more BUYING Republicans than Soros's entire net worth!!!

Default Dems exposed as violent, hate filled, unhinged mobs.

FINALLY, the Republicans are calling them exactly what they are. Hate filled mobs will suffer at the ballot box.
