Only FAKENEWS would mistake a real red wave for a fake red mirage
throw some water on them and wake them up
just my lame attempt to make fun of their narrative

It was October 27, 1964. Ronald Reagan, then an actor and private citizen, had been asked to give a nationally televised addressed for the Republican presidential nominee, Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater. Reagan did so, the title of his speech being “A Time for Choosing.”
In his speech Reagan said the following:
This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capitol can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.
You and I are told increasingly we have to choose between a left or right. Well I’d like to suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There’s only an up or down — [up to] man’s old-aged dream, the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order, or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. And regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course.
Reagan was right. And that speech skyrocketed him two years later into the governorship of California and, in 1980 and 1984, to two landslide presidential victories. And in those eight years Reagan was relentless in driving home that message of freedom as he, against all odds and a chorus of naysayers, won the Cold War by defeating the “Evil Empire” (as he correctly called it) of the Communist Soviet Union. The latter eventually collapsing onto, again as Reagan said, “the ash heap of history.”
As America stands on the threshold of the 2020 election, Reagan’s “Time for Choosing” speech is precisely relevant today. The principles and concerns he expressed are in fact at the very core of what can easily be termed the Trump Revolution.
Make no mistake.
Start with the censorship of the Leftist State Media on the Hunter Biden story and add to its relentless assault against President Donald Trump and his supporters over the last four years.
Add in the plotting and scheming of the Washington “Deep State” bureaucracies of the FBI, the Justice Department, the CIA, and more to spy on the Trump campaign. And then, when Trump won anyway in 2016, to use the tools of the administrative state — FISA warrants, a special counsel among them — to plot, scheme, and undermine a duly elected president.
Then add the role of “Big Tech” — the Silicon Valley war against both the president and conservatives in general, repeatedly censoring them and blocking their views in a fashion that reminds of their business ties to the dictatorship that is the Chinese Communist Party.
On top of all this is the repeated burning and looting of American cities by, as Newt Gingrich correctly says, “Black Lives Matter rioters and Antifa anarchists.”
Taken together it is disturbingly — some would say frighteningly — clear that this collectively is exactly what Reagan was warning about a full 56 years ago when he warned that the time for choosing came down to choosing between the “ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order” or “the ant heap of totalitarianism.”
One doesn’t have to be the proverbial rocket scientist to see that as Americans prepare to vote, one side in this debate is openly defending media censorship, the raw power of unelected bureaucrats, the outright violence of looting and burning cities, and, spectacularly dangerously, the raw power of Silicon Valley to control what Americans can and cannot say or see on the all-powerful social media platforms of the 21st century.
