You don't win by losing

Don't care what anybody says.  If the Dems win control of the House, it will be a very bad thing.

Not that I like the GOP all that much.  But the Democrats are so over the top that it is absolutely nuts to advocate anything like this.

Talk like that is worrisome.  It may indicate that a number of GOP types may slip over and vote Democrat just because they cannot bring themselves to support Trump.  This has always been the chief number one problem with the GOP.  The have this faction that discombobulates everything that the conservatives wish to bring forward.  It is almost as if they do it out of spite.

If the Dems wins, there will be no wall.  Even if the GOP wins, there still may be no wall.  But the odds are much better if the GOP controls.  Trump doesn't need to be checked and balanced.  The Dems need to be checked and balanced.  It is almost impossible to conceive why somebody who claims to be a Republican can even consider the idea of losing as somehow a benefit to Trump.

If the House is lost, the chances of Trump being re-elected go down.  The conservative wing of the GOP is un-electable.  Cruz could not have won.  Nor could have the rest of the field.  I still say that Trump is the best way forward for the GOP, but there's a large number of never Trumpers left who resist that common sense proposition.

Anybody who says differently is full of it.
