It’s a little hard to know why. But virtually every August of an election year, the propaganda media suddenly discovers that there’s a surge of the Democrats, that there’s not really going to be a big republican tide, and that everything will work out fine. They decided that Biden is recovering. They decide that this happened, by the way with Obama, and it happened with Clinton. They decided that the Republican candidates aren’t strong enough. They go through all sorts of things. They take polls that are totally phony, sometimes have 20% more Democrats and actually vote. And it’s designed, I think, both to depress Republicans, and to increase the optimism and the participation of Democrats, and then are all collapses, while the same thing starting to happen. Now, there are some posters you can look at Trafalgar, for example, led by Rebecca Haley, has a terrific record. And they don’t show any of the things that the news media polls show. I would say that if you look at Scott Rasmussen, who does a great job, he doesn’t show any of the things that the news media polls are showing, if you look at other people that we work with, you’ll find that they’re John McLaughlin, is a good example of totally different approach. But when you go out, and I just spent time, with the Senatorial Committee on the Republican side, went through every single race in the country. And I can tell you, on the Senate side, we are much stronger than the Democrats or the propaganda media thinks we are. And what’s really interesting about this is if you’re following information, that doesn’t work, think of it as having a compass that shows you east, what is supposed to be showing you north. So you think you’re going north, but you’re actually going east. Well, that’s what happens. All of a sudden, the Democrats get together, they think they’re doing fine. They don’t have to change. They don’t have to explain anything. And there’s somehow it’s all going to work out. My prediction is that none of the Republicans is going to win the house, but they’re gonna win the Senate by a surprising majority. And as I went through state after state, what I saw said to me, that you’re going to see a whole wave of candidates win that nobody in Washington currently expects. So if all this interests you, by the way, there’s a reporter named Selena Zito, who I think is the most accurate, because she actually goes out to the countryside. She talks to normal people. She’s actually writing from Western Pennsylvania or Ohio or Wisconsin. She’s not sitting in some room in Washington, imagining the world anyway, it’s gonna be an fascinating year
