Today we heard the sad news that 6 (now 14) bombs were sent to various members of the Democrat Party and CNN. This type of political violence is horrific.

Here is what President Trump said: This egregious conduct is abhorrent and against every thing we hold dear and sacred as Americans … The full weight of our government is being deployed to conduct this investigation and bring those responsible for these despicable acts to justice. We will spare no resource or expense in this effort … in these times we have to unify. We have to come together, and send one very clear and strong unmistakable message that acts or threats of political violence have no place in The United States of America.

The media and Democrats immediately took the obvious step of denouncing Trump, and his violent, conservative Republican followers. Watch the way CNN described the President’s comments, as if directly blaming him for the bombs. This media message, that Trump is sowing violence and division is, i hope, falling on deaf ears. CNN and others are asking Americans not to believe what they see and hear from Democrats who are the ones really sowing division and violence. CNN and others in the media are now using a version of the phrase “bomber goes after Trump targets”. An obvious, politically advantageous and consistent message about Trump from the media.

This situation is all way too easy and way to convenient for me. 13 days before the election? Is this October surprise number 1,247?

Then you look at what is going on in the election messaging. Democrats are desperate to take the House. One of they’re other October surprise efforts, the Kavanaugh hearings, went very badly for them. Democrat politicians support of harassing Republicans politicians in restaurants, streets, elevators, Capitol offices, etc., also not helping the Democrats. Trump is having success with his “Dems create mobs, Reps create jobs” message. Another October surprise, a caravan (mob) is heading to the border in time for the November election, also not helping the Democrats. How can you get these bad messages for Democrats off the news? Create a major news event that casts negative light on Republicans. Not the first time this has happened this year. Remember the “separating children at the border” story came out at the same time the Inspector General’s report came out on election corruption in the FBI. A story spun to get attention away from the Inspector General’s report and on to Trump being a meany. Which of course was also untrue and spun by the media for Democrat advantage.

So, my money is on this being a Democrat directed October surprise. No bombs exploded. None got close to the supposed target. It was all too neat and clean. Even had color pictures of the bombs on TV within hours, what? We may even find some deranged Trump supporter, white supremacist/Nazi was behind this. But, that was also the Charlottesville story, when in actuality, the guy behind Charlottesville is an Obama voter.

How desperate are these people? How low will they go?

Eric Holder said “when they go low, we kick them“. When have Republicans gone low?

Waiting ……

Kavanaugh? Standing for decency and the rule of law is going low? No.

Waiting ……. Trump is crude? Yes. But, are the left and the media attacks on Trump and his supporters any less crude? No, they are worse. He fights back, with the same level of low attacks he gets and then some. So, nothing.

Instead you have a pattern of assault and violence from Democrat politicians and their supporters in the media against Republican politicians and supporters. Here are 10 pages of violence against Republicans. Who is setting the low standard here – the Democrats. Who wants that message to be targeted at the Republicans instead – the Democrats.

This is a clear political maneuver. And worse, we have 13 days left. This October is not over!!
