Many were projecting that the November 2022 midterm elections would be a Red Wave. Brandon sucks a lot, and even some normies are starting to see it. The results of the election were disappointing to many. The Republicans gained a majority in the House, but it was by a smaller margin than many had expected (thus the Red Ripple and not the Red Wave). Whether this was due to election rigging or not, I don't know for sure.

But we all just saw what happened this week in the Speaker of the House election. A few MAGA patriots were able to hold up everything to get a significant degree of concessions from McCarthy. And those concessions seem to be good for MAGA going forward.

Now here's the crazy theory:

What if the Red Ripple had to occur to get those concessions?

If we had a massive Red Wave, what would have happened in the Speaker of the House election? We would have had a lot of first-time GOP congressmen. Would they have held out for concessions from McCarthy? I argue they would not. Not because they are anti-MAGA, but because they were new to the game. They don't understand how it all works yet. They would have just come in and voted for the Red Team frontrunner, because that's how all of this usually works.

MAGA needed a slim enough majority so that the few "trustworthy" MAGA patriots in the House could get those concessions.

Look here and not there.

Wasn't there a similar event in the past year where military got off a bus, then got back on, then got off, etc.? The media was talking about it nonstop. I don't remember the actual circumstances, but I remember it was a huge distraction and Trump came away with a Win.
