The burlesque over Sen. Elizabeth’s Warren’s dubious Cherokee ancestry is helping Republicans build a head of steam ahead of the November elections. On the increasingly indefensible side of the political divide are those who evidently believe that a slapdash DNA test showing Warren has perhaps 1/1024th Indian blood “proves” she is a Native American. Believers include most Democrats and the national media other than Fox News. And then there are the rest of us — i.e., those who see Warren’s cadres as buffoons, willing to trumpet an absurd lie and embarrass themselves simply because her Marxist political views are companionable with their own.
Those who are predicting a “blue wave” at the ballot box in November are way off the mark. They are saying in effect that most voters will stand by Warren even though Cherokee Nation has sternly rebuked her for making an issue of her supposed Native American pedigree. A blue wave also supposes that a majority of Americans are okay with a new norm that would feature rioting in the streets of formerly peaceful cities like Portland, higher taxes, more Obamacare, the suppression of the U.S. Constitution, and leadership on Capitol Hill from shrieking hags like Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters, and sanctimonious political hacks like Charles Schumer.
Strong Economy Favors Status Quo
For a blue wave to happen, and the party of unctuous carny Michael Avenatti to win big, voters would also need not to have noticed that the economy and stock market are as strong as they’ve been for decades. Yeah, sure. Do the pollsters who are predicting a blue wave on MSNBC and CNN take us for idiots? A genuine idiot is Bloomberg news’ Jonathan Bernstein, who wrote a column the other day saying Warren, by sticking with her ridiculous story, is positioning herself as the Democratic front-runner. If the Massachusetts senator positions herself any deeper in doo-doo, she won’t be able to run for dogcatcher in 2020. Bernstein has plenty of company on the delusional left, as we know. His comrades will be just as stunned by the outcome in November as they were by Trump’s victory over Clinton.
Sorry but not convinced the stock market and economy are genuinely “as strong as they’ve been for decades”. I suspect they’re still just running on the vapors of cheap credit and never before seen mountains of cash injections, in other words it’s not real investment and it will fall over.
Trump now tries to claim credit for a stock market he previously claimed was a bubble, tomorrow he’ll say something else, for example that some how rogue killers snuck into the Saudi embassy and spent 2 hours unnoticed torturing and killing an innocent man prepared to speak his mind. And that MSB really really had no idea so lets not stop selling all those bombs to drop on an 8 million people famine. And you guys honestly like the man? or does he just serve your purposes for now?

I agree with you concerning the false, artificially induced “strength” in the stock market and economy: It is all just smoke and mirrors. But with respect to how this will influence voters, it is perceptions, however erroneous, that will count in Trump’s favor. Concerning the man, he is difficult to like, but he IS getting things done.
