There are times when people state our optimism in the 2016 presidential election is missing the required amount of caution or concern.  However, what many of those voices don’t realize is the research-based reasoning for our outlook.
If you tune out the media noise, look around and pay close attention, you can see the groundwork for an epic landslide everywhere.

The historical playbook of the oppositional left (for sake of expediency Democrats) has always been to carve the larger electorate into smaller, more manageable, sub categories they call “interest groups”.  Those groups are then micro-targeted with campaign messaging tailored to their self-interest; and historically they have been successful.
The traditional method to countering this approach (pushed by a set of political consultants who genuinely think they understand, but factually are wrong) has been to apply the same strategic targeting -campaign message- back upon the carved out, by tailoring a counter ideological message to their needs.

Very salty language, but the points made are insanely accurate.
With the context of the last twelve months of sunlight upon a political process as a backdrop, this George Carlin segment is essentially the USA version of the Brexit argument.

[Transcript]  “There’s a reason education SUCKS, and it’s the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got.

Because the owners of this country don’t want that. I’m talking about the REAL owners, now. The REAL owners, the BIG WEALTHY business interests that control things and make all the important decisions — forget the politicians.

There are many people who don’t support July 4th, America’s birthday.  They simply hate everything this nation stands for and they don’t believe in an exceptional America.  As a consequence, for them, July 4th represents everything they despise.
There was a time when those voices were few and far between; we used to call them the radical left or the far left.  Unfortunately, with the growth of the political left, and the growth of the institutional leftist constructs pushing out the center-left, the anti-American sentiment is now the populous sentiment within the largest elements of the Democrat party.
It’s now generally accurate to say Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders supportive camps are within the grouping who hate America; at least by the same scope they hate religion, any references to Christianity, the U.S. flag and the U.S. military writ large.
A gradual erosion of pride has given way to a daily onslaught.  It’s has only taken about a generation of anti-Americanism to infect large parts -perhaps most parts- of the Millennial generation; although the initial advocates still attempt to cloud their hatred under the auspices of various social justice endeavors.  (more…)

Before watching this video it’s important to note something.  Brianna Keilar is filling in for Jake Tapper on State of the Union.  CNN’s Brianna Keiler was previously on assignment as an embed reporter with the Hillary Clinton campaign during the campaign.
Notice how no other network shifts an embed “reporter” into a position of punditry other than CNN. Jake Tapper used to work for Chelsea Cinton’s mother-in-law.  If you have followed their “reporting” you’ll note both Tapper and Keilar are the primary “journ-o-list” advocates for Hillary Clinton on the network:

(Via WaPo) Donald Trump and Indiana Gov. Mike Pence had a private meeting Saturday morning at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., that served as an informal way for the presumptive Republican presidential nominee to become better acquainted with a possible running mate.

According to two Republicans familiar with the meeting, the conversation between Trump and Pence lasted for more than an hour, and the governor was joined by his wife, Karen, as he visited with the real-estate mogul. (more…)

We’ve said it before, and we’ll continue to repeat it, watch how deep and entrenched the financial tentacles of Wall Street Globalists are amid the DC politburo.  There is an entire construct of professional political operatives intent on doing the bidding of the Donohue Clan despite the electorate being opposed to it.

Arizona Senator Jeff Flake (Gang of Eight Immigration ↑ usurper, Wall Street Operative and foot soldier for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce) tells Business Insider that congress needs to ignore the voters, defy the will of their constituency, and just pass the Trans-Pacific Trade deal.

[Via Business Insider] The agreement is expected to be put before Congress during the lame-duck session after the election. It’s the critical piece of President Barack Obama’s “pivot to Asia” in foreign policy.

[…]  Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake told Business Insider during a Wednesday interview that Congress is going to have to “suck up” and ratify the agreement because it simply must be done, even in the face of hostile opposition to trade along the campaign trail.
