STRATEGIC THOUGHT

Whenever you approach any situation where you do not control the outcome you must be prepared to succeed NO MATTER WHAT the outcome is.

For people who play strategically no local victory or loss changes anything. If the long term strategy is right, every local short term event is a victory, because it still plays into your long term strategy.

The Playing Field

1) Dim Party deeply divided

2) Nancy Pelosi deeply unpopular, will probably become speaker by force, but will create massive resentment

3) They promised to impeach everyone, but impeachment would be electoral suicide, so they will never get the votes, once again creating massive demoralization and resentment with their base

4) Almost all of their progressive candidates lost. Most of their pickups were deep state / corporatists who their base hates

5) They cannot legislate anything without deep compromises that their base will hate. either we have 2 more years of no legislation at all except for increasing military spending, or they capitulate and give us everything we want (pelosi already doing this in speech, essentially saying she will deliver on all of trump's policies, even saying "drain the swamp" - since when does opposition start using the other party's slogans? lol)

6) Trump gained support. Everyone acts like Republicans are one party, but truth is there are two parties: trump party and deep state party. deep state party on republican side is dead. our party gained seats in this election even if "republicans" lost.

7) Trump agenda rolls on. EO on birthright citizenship, trade, israel peace, nork peace, military on border. now with dims in house no excuse for compromise. turn the heat up even higher.

Bottom Line

We didn't control house before today but we have gotten amazing things done. We gained loyal seats in the house while dumping many traitors. Our power has only increased and will continue increasing if we stick to the plan.
