Huge Wins for Conservatives in British Election a Harbinger for #Trump2020landslide!

Labour Party Chairman said this is what happens when you ignore democracy!

I watched the election returns live from the United Kingdom last night. What an affirmation of the sovereignty of the people!  It was the biggest electoral bloodbath of the British left wing Labour Party in the postwar era.  The result was a huge majority of 80 seats in Parliament for Prime Minister Boris Johnson with 365 conservative seats won.

Left wing Labour was wiped out in England, Scotland and Wales in what were traditionally their working class strongholds. Some of these seats have been held by Labour since they were created in the 1920's and 30's.

Both Sky News and the BBC interviewed Labour Members of Parliament  (time to call them FORMER MP's).  Many said that when they went door to door the answer was the same, voters who routinely voted for Labour were voting for someone else this time.  Mostly that meant conservatives, but some also for Liberal Democrat and Brexit Party; neither of which had any gains in seats in Parliament. Notably, the leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jo Swinson, lost her own seat.

The strongest drop in Labour support came in areas that voted for the BREXIT referendum that demanded Britain leave the European Union. But even areas which voted to remain in the E.U. saw a big drop in Labour support. This wasn't just about BREXIT, though the result is an absolute affirmation of the British people's desire for independence from the E.U.

Will Dems Learn Labour's Lesson?

The problem for Labour is that their leaders went so far left with such extreme positions and obvious problems with anti-Semitism that they lost their traditional base. The message in this election has a direct parallel to American politics where the Democrat Party has gone off the rails with the radical "Squad" and impeachment to overturn the democratic will of the people expressed in the 2016 election.

I have more to say about this but found this column by Piers Morgan in the Daily Mail which covers it perfectly:
Johnson's victory was a genuinely seismic moment, and one whose forceful tremors will be felt most keenly across the Atlantic in America.
Because make no mistake, the lessons from this election carry extraordinary pertinence for next year's US election.
17.4 million people voted then to leave, a 52 percent majority of Britons, but scandalously the losing Remainers – who were quickly dubbed Remoaners - launched a concerted campaign to stop it happening.
Rather like Democrats after Hillary Clinton lost to Trump, they wouldn't accept the result and have spent the past three-and-a-half years screaming their heads off about how unfair it all is - and demanding another vote.
Since Johnson, one of the key architects of the Brexit win, became Prime Minister in the summer, Remoaner fury has grown ever more hysterical as they've branded him a lying cheating racist scumbag with a tawdry history involving women.
And they've mocked all his supporters as thick, racist morons who are just too stupid to know what they're doing.
Sound familiar?
For Boris, read Trump.
For Brexit, read the 2016 Election.
And for Remainers, read Democrats.
The similarities don't stop there.
Like the Democrats when Hillary ran, Remainers enlisted the very vocal support of Hollywood luvvies to fight their cause.

Hollywood actors Hugh Grant and Steve Coogan led the way, backed up by the likes of grime artist Stormzy and pop singer Lily Allen.

'I don't want to sound dramatic,' he said, dramatically, 'but I really think we're facing a national emergency.'

The absurdly affected arrogant and pompous twerp believed he was the one to save us all from ourselves.

Instead, Britons responded exactly how I assumed they would to a jumped-up hectoring thespian trying to destroy democracy - and voted against everyone he supported.

There was a wonderful photo taken in a West London restaurant of the precise moment multi-millionaire Grant read the devastating (for him) 10pm exit poll on his cell-phone and his head sunk in abject disbelief.

Like the Trump-hating liberal celebrities who so raucously endorsed Hillary, he was hit by a sudden thunderbolt of reality that his views are not shared by most actual real people.

There was also another massive reason why Johnson won so big, and it was that his opponent, Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn, is a hard-core socialist so far left he makes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez look like a capitalist.

Corbyn pledged to spend £60 billion ($80 billion) investing in schools, hospitals, education, green energy and home-building.

But as with Ocasio-Cortez and her outlandish promises like free tuition, healthcare and a green new deal, he planned to pay for it all by punitively taxing the rich and middle class in a way that many economists feared would bankrupt the country.

Britons firmly rejected that hard-left agenda in this election, and this should also send a very firm message to Democrats as they choose their nominee to take on President Trump in 2020.

As I've been warning for months, there's not a cat-in-hell's chance of a socialist candidate beating Trump next November, especially not with the US economy doing so well.

Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren both share Jeremy Corbyn's socialist agenda and both appear to be as popular as him on Twitter.

The clear takeaway from this UK election is that a radical socialist candidate, backed by whining supercilious celebrities, against a populist opponent with a fervent base of support, will fail.

And if the only tactic they come up with to win is to try to thwart democracy, they will fail badly.

The sinister establishment-driven attempt to stop Brexit happening is not dissimilar to the current equally ill-advised Democrat impeachment move on Trump.

Those who voted for Brexit and Trump don't take kindly to their democratic vote being abused in this way.

And their retribution comes at the ballot box.

If people think Boris Johnson's earthquake was big, just wait until the Senate acquits President Trump and he uses that victory to storm to re-election.
Sorry to be the one to tell this to you Trump haters but left wing fascists and Hollywood celebrities do NOT represent the American people.  You continue to insult us and attempt to overturn the will of the people with an impeachment farce then you can expect the same treatment Labour received in November 2020.  Get ready for more disappointment!
