I work at a medium sized company in blue-state VA at a location with over 100 employees. Last year at this time, the Trump haters outnumbered the Trump supporters 70% to 30%. Trump haters were smug and outspoken, making wisecracks and sharing CNN and MSN talking points constantly. Flash forward a year and the split has reversed with 7 out of 10 people now clearly in the Trump camp and the non-supporters don't want to discuss politics anymore. I believe the voter turnout for Democrats in 2020 will be the lowest on record. Get ready to MAGA.

I do not fear that Trump will lose the election next year. His accomplishments are there for all to see and his biggest is the economy.
I fear the massive voter fraud the other side will resort to. Thanks to the DC metro area Virginia is pretty much lost in my opinion.
Agree with you 100%. I was thinking we should all volunteer to work as poll workers that day. What do you think? Can't have much voter fraud if you have patriots all around the nation checking the IDs.
I don't know how to sign up for that though. Any idea?
It will be the "oh we just found this box" and the absentee ( sp? ) ballots.
Call your county election board/board of elections. Most post offices will have voter registration forms that should have the election board contact information on them.
If you can, get involved early so you can move up the ranks and see how the sausage is made.
I'm in a solid red area and am considering temporarily moving somewhere purple or blue so I could do more good.
Volunteering the day of elections is gonna reveal the tip of the iceberg. You need to become a temporary worker for your county clerk / elections official / secretary of state's office.
The SOS usually maintains voter rolls and designs rules, the county clerks implement those rules and do the actual counting of the ballots.
Many states are updating their voter rolls due to laws regarding electronic records or lower apparent costs and ease of use. For example I know in CA, the DMV automatically pushed it's new ID cards or driver's licenses into the voter rolls, so what about all the illegal aliens that are now able to get driver's licenses? What checks are in place to stop them from getting on the rolls?
None.
I was a poll worker in 2016. Frankly, I don't think it matters much. Checking ID is not a matter of do or do not, it's literally against the rules (in CA at least). And while I'm person voter fraud is certainly pretty easy to get away with, there's no doubt in my mind that the overwhelming majority of fraud is in absentee ballots and fraudulent voter registration. Poll station watchdogs wouldn't make an impact.
They should be there anyway.
They might.
I’ve made attempts. Unless you have an in with someone they will not respond. The elections boards are in on the scam and aren’t about to let interested patriotic Americans get involved. But make an effort. Maybe your area is less cucked.
The RNC will be wanting poll watchers. Nothing the election boards can do about that.
If the Dems gain control of Exec and both houses of Congress, I don't think we will ever find out in a provable way. The Republic will be no more.
In 2016 his lead was so overwhelming that the little fraud you can get away with without being caught couldn't touch it.
My worry for 2020 is that the Dems have got away with SO MUCH lately. Literally zero consequences for so many illegal acts and so much outright corruption. I fear that this will embolden them and they will just say "fuck it, the media have our back" and go all out with ridiculous, obvious levels of vote fraud.
They have not had to face any consequences for breaking the law and constantly lying so far, so why not just blatantly steal the election? The press will lie about it for them and call anyone who speaks up "conspiracy theorists" and "Alt right trolls".
So show up near the polls with open-carry.
If they want to cheat - we'll show some teeth.
** I fear the massive voter fraud the other side will resort to.
This.
2018 was a trial run and the democrats are gasping for power.
Don't get complacent. The shitty candidates on the left are terrifying. I think Trump will win, but I think it's a problem if you aren't afraid of the potential loss.
We need. Every. Single. Vote.
Amen to that! This may well be the most important election anyone living has voted in. We can leave nothing to chance and I'm not confident of the integrity of the polls in many places.
I am scared to death one of those Socialists will win and wreck health care, the economy, and open the borders. Crime will explode!
I work at two locations for my company. One of them is predominantly pro-Trump and the other is the exact opposite.
The pro-Trump location is quiet and industrious. Politics are rarely discussed and when there is good news for America, people just nod and smile at each other.
The other location is loud conversations about impeachment non-stop. My God, the morning Sondland testified, the REEEEEE level was over the top. It was hilarious how much his later testimony shut them up.
Needless to say, I hate working in that office. I can't go 5 minutes without hearing these NPCs trash the president. For location MAGA, politics is a personal journey. For location Cuck, it's nothing short of a fundamentalist religion.
MAGA vs. Cuck
--pretty much sums it up
How productive is site Cuck vs site MAGA?
Anecdotally I would say site MAGA is an order of magnitude more productive. Site Cuck has some smart people who always seem to be out for coffee breaks, in the office late and out early. Team MAGA is in early and leaves late. Great attention to detail, and good work ownership.
In my experience it boils down to this. Conservatives look at a job as an opportunity and liberals resent the fact they have to work. I think it's that sense of personal responsibility that seems to be the core difference between the two groups.
Nailed it. Well said!
Wouldn't expect anything else honestly. Conservatives/right wing types are far more industrious and hard working (facts backed by scholarly research). Progressives/left wing types are more worried about how they FEEL rather than getting their work done. The nihilism doesn't help their case either. It's sad watching lefties work, cause all they do is complain and then nothing ever gets done.
Hasn't management noticed this? Like maybe tell the employees to leave their politics outside?
In my opinion, work and politics should be like church and state, completely separated
Clearly, we saw in tech companies the C-level meetings after the elections where executives were consoling their liberal workforces and lamenting the stupidity of the American voter.
They exhorted their employees to find ways to ensure that something like Trump's election never happens again.
I happen to work in a blue coastal state. While I agree with politics ideally remaining personal, it just won't happen here.
Now, if we could only get voter ID.
I agree. 100% first step. But if poll workers refuse to check IDs, what then? I’m in a mandatory ID state, the last election we had I showed my ID and she acted like she was a vampire and I had shown her a silver crucifix. We need military running our elections for now.
I've been saying military should be stationed at every polling place, but I'm pretty sure that would make the NPCs literally explode into rants about "voter intimidation".
Ya and so what? They're going to find something to act that way about anyway.
In California make it ICE.
Have them swipe it. No swipe, no ballot. If the number of swipes doesn't equal the number of ballots, we'll know there's a problem.
They should do the same thing they did when they raised the drinking age where they make them have standards, like requiring a REAL ID to vote, mandatory paper ballots so the votes could be audited, must provide proof of citizenship when you register to vote, no same day bullshit, no mail in votes except for military (absentee ballots should instead be done securely in person in advance), a whole set of standards for securing the voting booths physically and digitally, and hold funds they would receive hostage if they don't comply
The Democrats don't have a single viable candidate. If they run Biden, he will be evicerated repeatedly for his constant abuse of office to enrich his family.
Men won't vote for Warren. Only a fraction of Democrats will vote for a candidate that promises lifetime income to any non-American willing to illegally cross the border.
I don't see a single candidate that could challenge the President.....
Their lineup is so pathetic that Mike fucking Bloomberg thinks he has an actual chance to win.
Yeah. But with him in there, the lineup is still pathetic.
Maybe you're just underestimating the vast swaths of voters who care deeply about having a government authority dictate to them how big their sodas are allowed to be?
He has 0 personality. Plus, he is really short!
Wait til Moochele enters the race. Tucker had a spot tonight about that and I agree - she’s gonna jump in.
I thought Tom already pulled out? Isn't he that so-called billionare from Shitty McShitstain San Franshitshow with hardcore TDS that's obviously hiding illegal gains or pedophilia?
WTF is going on over there :D
He is building coal plants all over Asia while pushing Green deal here because he is highly invested in those companies.
Hillary should run again just so we can see the climax to that epic.
Ya the first time Biden's eye fills up with blood when Trump starts trolling him at a debate wouldn't be a great look LOL!
We will have to see what happens with Bloomberg. I think Warren and Bernie will jump all over him, though, and he has no base in the D party.
uh never underestimate the communists
"the non-supporters don't want to discuss politics anymore"
I love these people who 'don't want to discuss politics anymore' and then find a way to insert their political opinions into every discussion
drive-by shooting of their bullshit gotcha comments
Let's not discuss politics any more.
Slips in nasty comments into every discussion.
Virginia just went full blue in the state government. Hillary won Virginia in 2016 by 200,000 votes. Ya'll have a lot to do to win for Trump in 2020.
Virginia has been blue for how many Presidential Elections now? They are a lost cause, essentially a housing unit for the deep state like Maryland.
I remember at work, after the inauguration, when people were smugly commenting on how low Trump's approval rating was then other Presidents at the time of their inauguration. What they didn't expect is that he would make things better, and that his approval would go UP!
My favorite aspect of the Trump presidency, far above anything else, is the performance/results aspect. Second place has to be the good humor and tweets and going after corruption and exposing the media and hollywood and the Barron memes and sticking it to cultural marxism and saving the west from destruction and building a narrative to expose the central banks and ending the endless wars (which is what I voted for Obama to do, TWICE) and the fact that Melania is a badass herself. All of those are second place, plus a dozen more things.
(who am I kidding, it's hard to pick favorites here)
Amen!
Great! Keep those cards and letters coming...
We will always remain vigilant.
Are you south or north of Ashland? I'd guess south.
Only if we FIGHT! To WIN! Do not get complacent! Do you part for HISTORY!
If Biden gets the nomination a lot of dem voters stay home.
Well, it's likely Biden will also stay home on election day, since he's senile as all hell.
It's a stark decision. Socialism, crippling taxes, and poor government health care, or what we have... which is pretty dsmed good in most places.
Or the highest zombie voting rates on record. Stay vigilant.
Right? It's hard to win when the whole cemetery votes against you every election.
Excellent on-the-ground report. And in Virginia of all places.
This makes me think that maybe the state really didn't want Northam as the black-faced Governor and both houses in the Democrat control.
This all adds up to Voter Fraud in Virginia.
Lots of people who didn't vote for Trump in 2016 will vote for him in 2020.
Virtually no one who voted Trump in 2016 will not vote for him in 2020.
This is the Trump train gaining steam.
Many people have come aboard. Nobody has gotten off.
>I believe the voter turnout for Democrats in 2020 will be the lowest on record.
hopefully they get a centrist like Biden. radical left is mad and mobilized. so we need them to NOT have someone like Bernie.
bernie could lose every debate and still get many millions voting for him.
we need someone they hate. kinda like hillary in 2016.
Once you wake up and take the red pill it is hard or impossible to go back. Just use your brain and common sense. Trump has literally fulfilled more promises than how many other presidents combined! God Bless Trump for saving America and giving up his billionaire lifestyle to be constantly harassed and berated from the leftists and fake news. He will go down as one of the greatest presidents in American History!
This has definitely been my experience as well. You see it in comments on normie news sites. Used to be full of smarmy leftist comments. Now, I see a lot of pro-Trump/pro-America comments.
Not to mention that he's filling stadiums in every state, while the lead Democrats can't draw anywhere close to those numbers.
If Trump loses 2020, it'll be because the Dems successfully cheated on a massive scale...something I suspect is all too possible. :-|
I’m thinking beyond what will most likely be a second term for President Trump. How do we prevent falling back into bad habits when we don’t have a true MAGA candidate? Nobody can follow his lead in my opinion and even if there were someone perfect, that person won’t get the support they need from anyone in the swamp. If anything, the constant barrage of the MSM and globalists against that person would kneecap any chance of progress. There’s only one Teflon Don. My guess is it will become time to revolt by “accidentally” missing April 15th deadlines to cut off the gravy.
I would likely vote for Ted Cruz, but that would mean Texas would have a slugfest for Senator.
Like the huge field Trump faced, it will be the same deal again. A lot of the same players (RINOS), too. I bet even that narcissist fool Kasich shows up again! ?
I'm OK with Pence taking the presidency.. Lindsey Graham would be good if he could keep the fire in his belly going. Ted Cruz would be a rip-roaring hoot though.
wow, how do i work at that place :P my work was and still is about 92% leftist
Personally, I can't wait to vote again. Every vote cast is a big middle finger to the Democraps.
He absolutely needs to get more votes than every other candidate before him.
The only way some people will learn that they shouldn't vilify a large percentage of their own fellow citizen.
There will always be a large enough group with TDS that will annoy the absolute shit out of you. But they shouldn't be relevant and destroying everything.
My kids are in high school in Washington State. We live towards the south end of Puget Sound but still very much in blue territory. It's going the same way. It's becoming cool to support trump. The memes and all that are kind of giving him an urban legend/cultural hero status. It's amazing. Also USA and American flag gear are ALL in.
Agree. You also have to remember that in 2016, democrats thought it was going to be the end of the world if Trump won. That the stock market would collapse and we'd have nazi style concentration camps for anyone who wasn't white and we'd be launching nukes at countries we didn't like.
Now almost 4 years later, many of those people find that Trump wasn't the boogie man they thought he was. The fear that made them vote in 2016 will not be there in 2020.
Just imagine if they didn't watch globalist media and actually heard about the good things he is doing every day.
Woohoo!!! That's fabulous. I'm worried about their cheating which will be at astronomical levels, but if we vote for him in a landslide, they simply cannot cheat enough to get around us. We the people TRULY ARE their greatest fear - they don't want US interfering in the election!!!
If the Trump Card is played, IG and FISA report come out when they are supposed to, the House will fail. Many in the Senate will be arrested and we will finally see justice, plus get national voter ID. The demonrat party will also fail.
I don't expect anything out of this IG report. Horowitz is a rabid D supporter. The FBI is a cesspool of them. His last report was a joke.
Having grown up in SE VA, I still can't bring myself to say "blue-state VA". NORVA flipped the entire state in a decade.
I have hope. I will still vote.
Thanks for sharing that. It’s the best - when you see that kind of progress - and it’s all about the JOBS, baby!!!
2020 is Trump vs voter fraud. No doubt about it.
We need to drown out the fraud with a massive turnout or our republic may be lost.
And why hasn’t voter ID been a priority?
Well, except they're going to cheat.
How did the supporters of the sitting US president get run off the 3rd largest site in the country
You mean the 87th now they’re gone?
And the churches out by me have been PACKED for services.....
Their communist candidates are trash. They’re gonna lose badly I think. Last election night was one of the best days of my life; I can only imagine how their heads will implode when they wake up to 4 more years of Trump MINIMUM.
Please send at least one of the 7 to NJ. We need the help.
I fear vote rigging like they did in the mids and recently in the gubernatorial races
Thanks for sharing that.
I've been seeing the "underground" trend strongly in local unions too.
Just wondering why VA voted in a whole blue state government and Congresspeople in 2018? My fam is from NW Virginia near the TN border and it seems crazy to me that Virginia has sunk so low.
It’s always easy to be loud when “you’re guy is the president”.
We were the silent majority last election because our guy wasn’t in office. They’re the quiet ones now.
Just because you don’t hear them doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Get out and vote.
Don’t assume they won’t show up.
Virginia just sucked bad in the recent elections. People will have to be impacted personally to oppose that clown fascist governor. If they can hit bottom, they might be salvageable, and the counties refusing to follow gun control is a good start.
Small problem there.
2017 about 2.7 million Americans died.
2018 let's assume the same, 2.7 mil.
Repeat for 2019, 2.7 mil.
Let's pro-rate 2020. 2 mil.
That's an additional 10 million Democrat votes before anyone actually hits the ballot box.
