VDH UltraDoes Trump Grasp What the Left is Doing? Part Two

Victor Davis Hanson Let us first be clear. Do not believe that the midterms are lost, or even that the Democrats are on the “upswing.” Instead go back and read the Labor Day press and study the September polls of 1994 and 2010, when the supposed Republican tsunamis had “crested.” They had not.
