Republicans will likely get crushed at the polls and have no narrative to counter Democrat enthusiasm. History has shown that by being the party of safety and security, they always succeed. Imagine if Republicans would magnify Trump’s message on these issues and be strong on criminal justice, immigration, and drugs and prioritize true national security threats, such as Iran/Hezbollah in our hemisphere rather than Syria and Afghanistan? We begin by showing how Republicans are passing a terrible jailbreak bill that would make Michael Dukakis proud and betrays the Reagan view on criminal justice. It is the exact opposite of where they should head.  We then discuss the need for a new Monroe doctrine and to harness our military, diplomatic tools, and intelligence assets to fight Iran and Hezbollah in the Western Hemisphere instead of focusing so much on tribal civil wars in the Middle East that don’t affect us. A true message of safety and security would resonate with the public. Now we just need a party to promote it.  Show links 6 observations from Tuesday’s elections Backwards and aimless priorities in the defense bill The border crisis poses an existential threat     Copyright CRTV.
