Steve Schmidt on the Midterms: ‘All of the Signs Point to a Blue Tsunami Coming’

EXCERPT:

SCHMIDT: "Let’s talk about the political strategy here. It’s a desperate political strategy. When you look at the special election in Ohio, if it was President Marco Rubio, this Republican would have won by 15 points. But because it’s President Trump, the Republican barely beat a Democratic candidate. And so all of the signs point to a blue tsunami coming. But in a fight, there are only two ways to win. You can bring your opponent to submission. Think of Germany and Japan after World War II. Or you can break their will to fight. Think of the United States in the Vietnam War. The strategy is fundamentally one about exhausting and wearing out the will to fight and resist of Democratic voters by inciting the base. Trump needs that base incited. He needs it to turn out to hold back, as best as possible, this blue wave is coming."
