Great night for Republicans! Congratulations to John Cox on a really big number in California. He can win. Even Fake News CNN said the Trump impact was really big, much bigger than they ever thought possible. So much for the big Blue Wave, it may be a big Red Wave. Working hard!

The president’s endorsement these days is about as valuable as a Trump Hotel in Los Angeles. He has stumped for candidates like Ed Gillespie, Luther Strange, Roy Moore, and Rick Saccone, all of whom have lost their races to their Democratic opponents.
In his infinite delusion, Trump may think that California will be home to a “big red wave,” but he is in for an unpleasant surprise come November. Of course, with Mueller’s probe closing in, he may be in for more than one surprise by then.
