The current speculation about a likely Joe Biden victory in the November presidential election ignores a number of extraordinary factors. Since the speculation is in the media and the media is overwhelmingly hostile to President Trump, there is a spontaneous urge to consider his declining fortunes in the polls as a vindication of both their professionalism and their prophetic talents. Their self-confidence is misplaced. (Snip)Four months ago, in the midst of perhaps the most flourishing economy in American history, Trump’s innumerable enemies were sinking into an almost resigned state of gloom about his reelection. Since the pandemic and its consequences seemed to produce a benign deliverance for the president’s enemies—

Black speaks about various issues, but this is the one I have believed will be compelling for many voters:
There will be a backlash among the silent majority of Americans who love and admire their country even as they acknowledge that racial relations require continued work and enhanced sensitivity. On Election Day, they will punish those who have been tolerant or even ambiguous about what amounts to urban terrorism and the desecration of the highest traditions of America.
No significant percentage of Americans of any pigmentation will approve the destruction or desecration of a monument to Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, or their armies or the veterans of the World Wars. They all fought for liberty and judicial equality for all people and the horrible George Floyd murder and other valid current grievances deduct nothing from the homage owed them for having made the highest and noblest sacrifice.

Democrats are clearly running an Anyone But Trump campaign with no other discernible message other than the usual meaningless bones thrown at the Extreme Left. Being forced to support and defend Antifa and BLM is not helping. After the Democrat driven destruction of our economy followed by the horrible spectacle of criminal rioters, looters and arsonists burning down both black and white businesses in liberal run cities, and now destroying OUR US monuments that they personally are offended by, I highly suspect that the vote will go to Anyone But Biden.

The president needs to take on the 1619 Project directly and call it out for what it is, a pernicious fallacy that the country was founded on racism. It wasn't. Make the Democrats defend it. If the 1619 Project succeeds in electing Biden and a Democrat congress, this could be the last time we have a reason to celebrate Independence Day.

The silent majority must overwhelm all the voter fraud schemes in the works; mail-in ballots, ballot harvesting, etc. Expect the left to pull out all the stops to include social media influencing (one-sided news reporting, demonetization efforts against conservative sites), voter intimidation at polling stations and even more dirty tricks to win at all costs.
The forces of evil are on the march but it can be defeated. Remain vigilant. Organize to achieve critical mass for a positive outcome and CRUSH the enemy. Let’s keep our heads and keep the faith. Never give up.

The UNIPARTY has been running an anyone but Trump campaign since he announced four years ago. Biden is a Dem placekeeper, a firewall to keep the radicals from the levers of Dem leadership four more years, hopefully allowing a set of Dem UNIPARTY successors to form and grow behind Pelosi, Schumer and the rest of the early-Boomer Gerontocracy. The poll numbers, believe them or not, are key to the return of a great American statesman, savior of the Olympics, moderate conservative businessman who has a record of getting things done, a clean, family-oriented, handsome Senator with a bright smile who brings the support of a substantial voting bloc...stand by for news. A NeverTrump production is ever there was one.

That’s the gloomiest headline I’ve seen in years. Will whoever has Conrad please return him?

Now I know how Mary and Martha felt when they received word that ''this is not the sickness that will end in death.'' I should have relied on my inward knowledge that America have come this far by faith. Dr. Black's words do bring comfort but a warning also. FTA: ''On Election Day, they [silent majority] will punish those who have been tolerant or even ambiguous about what amounts to urban terrorism and the desecration of the highest traditions of America.''
David, the psalmist King said, ''Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered, And let those who hate Him flee before Him.'' Step out of the way of those God-haters who will flee.

Who ever said Trump's goose was cooked in the first place?
