voters to overlook economy

On Oct. 28, 1980, in the final debate of his race against Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan asked a question that has come to define presidential politics. "Next Tuesday all of you will go to the polls, will stand there in the polling place and make a decision," Reagan said. "I think when you make that decision, it might be well if you would ask yourself, are you better off than you were four years ago?" The answer for most voters was no, and Reagan won the election with 489 electoral votes to Carter's 49. The question, or some close variation of it, has popped up many times since.

It is much more likely the Dims will explain why a good economy is a bad thing, why prosperity equals inequality, why low unemployment threatens the planet, and why slavery is freedom and ignorance is strength. Their default position is not to overlook The Good, but to condemn it.

Harris has a coarse, brutal face which mirrors the evil and ugliness that resides within her soul. It is there for anyone to see if they care to recognize the truth about this manifestly evil person. Why are democrat party communist women, as a rule, so singularly ugly?

Contrary to media and leftists' spin, obama was a failure at helping America progress, and a lot more people than they'd have you believe, know it. President Donald Trump exposes the failures of obama by being who he is and doing what he's doing. I'll share just three blazing contrasts. 1. obama never ran or knew anyone who ran a lemonade stand. PDT is an international, successful business man. 2. obama said certain jobs would never come back, and we'd better get used to it. PDT has brought those jobs and industries back. 3. obama apologized for and divided America and did everything he could to bring US down. PDT is working to make America great again, and he's succeeding. In obama's eight years of squatting in the WH, you didn't hear about masses of people who didn't vote for him coming over to his side. Most who didn't support obama when he was first elected were glad to be rid of him when his reign of evil was over. In contrast, again, we're still hearing stories of people who were anti-Trump but now support him and plan to vote him back in so he can continue his reign of doing right by America.

#4, is right. Democrat supporters will gladly take a financial hit if they believe it will benefit their party. I expect nothing less from them. The hatred of President Trump is so strong that losing financially is worth it. However. the President is right when he says that the democrat party actually hates his supporters most but he is the one standing in the breach defending traditional Americans. When you have that depth of hate, almost anything is a reasonable response, even financial loss.

They are going to have tough time getting voters to overlook(a) their complete lack of heft or gravitas (b) their utterly idiotic, ruinous policies (c) outright treason. IMO, the 'millions' who would vote hatred rather than self interest, will stay this one out. This is for PDT to lose. And he is not about to oblige. KAG!!

Here is an example of dem math. A person making $40K gets a 3% raise, $1200. A person making $150K gets a 1% raise, $1500. Since the higher wage person got a larger raise than the lower wage person, the lower wage person is "falling behind" and that is "unfair". For the raw numbers, the discrepancy is correct, but meaningless. If you have more to begin with, you will benefit more as conditions improve. A person with $100K of investments will make less raw dollars than a person with $1,000 K of investments in the exact same things. There is nothing unfair about that. Dems quote meaningless numbers and claim unfairness routinely. If the media was functional instead of a propaganda group, they would point out the idiocy. Instead they support the distortion and encourage the angst of people feeling they are being cheated somehow. It is a very dangerous game to play because, in reality, this is something that can NEVER be fixed. If you start with planting a larger crop, you will reap more. The only way to deal with this is to call it stupid and have straightforward examples of WHY it is.

Here's some tasks for the The Republican party. They should go after the gangsters on the Left in a brutal fashion. Take no prisoners! Go for the jugular! Remind people about the high cost of healthcare deductibles initiated in the Obama administration. How about the lack of appreciation to the value of their home during the Obama years. The lack of jobs. Remind them about losing money in their 401k. Remind them of the constant struggle, the lies and rampant corruption in Washington. The gangs of Antifa and other hired mobs. The rich billionaires who want to destroy our country from within. The false claims about Climate Change. The infiltration and infestation of our country by illegal aliens. The squandering of our taxpayer dollars. The lack of respect for the law and law enforcers. The lack of respect for our country and our flag. Most of all, the Coup d'état against a duly elected president from the previous admin and the deep state. The list goes on. Furthermore, I'm getting tired of milk toast Republicans not acting like team players by supporting and singing the praises of President Trump. We the people are tired of the low energy GOP or whatever they now call themselves.

The Dems tend to suppress the economy so any Dem-controlled state will be able to say the economy isn't so great, and blame Trump. The economy may be good, but there are plenty of places that aren't seeing it.

Right now if the left could crash the economy or raise the price of gasoline they would. That's how hateful the left is doom and gloom all the time. We are not suppose to be happy and free while the left loves misery.

This could be a double-edged sword. While it is much to our advantage to have dim voters acknowledge the strong and vibrant economy that Trump has built, an epic global financial downturn looms. The long predicted Aftershock lurks. The left could use it as the final lever to steal the November 2020 election. Trump is aware. This is why he is working quietly behind the scenes to either 1) promote the healthy economy or 2) blame the dims and the Chinese for the calamity that is about to happen.

Seven people, all from different households, not only gathered for Thanksgiving but distributed to the media pictorial evidence of them flouting mask mandates and social distancing edicts. No governor yet claims jurisdiction over the International Space Station but the astronauts have a lot of explaining to do when they return to earth. It’s not as though they lacked for space. Governors ordering around people 250 miles above their states seems far-fetched. But so, too, did the notion of governors usurping the role of legislatures. Eight months after the initial coronavirus lockdowns, citizens docilely accept the idea of a single person dictating the laws that govern millions of people.
Trump’s leaving Biden a Christmas

Will Joe Biden and his foreign-policy team accept the extraordinary gift Team Trump is leaving for them under the Christmas tree — or is their hatred for the president so all-consuming that they will toss it in the garbage? I’m talking about the Abraham Accords, peace deals between Israel and various Arab states — the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan — that have sought the Jewish state’s destruction since its founding in 1948. Normalization has proceeded so quickly, Dubai already has a kosher restaurant, and its supermarkets are stocking Israeli agricultural products festooned with Stars of David — a science-fictional sight only a year ago.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Thursday reflected on some of the most memorable moments during his two-year tenure heading the State Department, in a wide-ranging interview on "Special Report." "I haven't had a chance to reflect on it," Pompeo told Bret Baier. "I guess if I were to give you my quick response, it was really something to come back from Pyongyang with three Americans and travel home with them from Asia and return them to their families." Pompeo was referring to the May 2018 release of three Americans detained in North Korea -- all were accused of anti-state activities.

Two suspects in Virginia suffered non-life-threatening wounds this week after being shot by the resident during the alleged home invasion, according to reports. The suspects were identified as James Franklin, 27, of Roanoke, and Alan Douglas Mould, 26, of Lynchburg. Both men were charged with breaking and entering and assault and battery, Roanoke FOX station WFXR-TV reported. Police officers in Lynchburg responded around 1:40 a.m. Wednesday to a report of a burglary in progress, the station reported. The suspects allegedly knocked on the door of the residence and then assaulted the resident when he opened the door but the resident responded by shooting both suspects, police told the FOX station.

It was the kind of story that would once have had Matt Drudge deploying font sizes that newspapers used to reserve for declarations of war. On Oct. 14, Twitter and Facebook blocked users from spreading a New York Post article alleging that Hunter Biden had brokered meetings between his father, then the vice president of the United States, and executives at a Ukrainian energy firm where the younger Biden held an $80,000-a-month sinecure. The Post’s article included photos of what appeared to be an exhausted and intoxicated-looking Biden in various states of undress.

Research psychologist Dr. Robert Epstein believes that search giant Google manipulated what content it showed users in the weeks and months before the 2020 election in a way that was highly favorable to Democrats. “We found a period of days when the vote reminder on Google’s homepage was being sent only to liberals,” Epstein said during an appearance on Tucker Carlson Tonight. “Not one of our conservative field agents received the vote reminder.” After Epstein made those results public, he said Google actually “shut off that manipulation” and were showing vote reminders to everyone in the four days before the election.

The practice of democracy in our constitutional republic flourishes in the presence of contradictions. Democracy, itself, is bound by our inalienable rights, bestowed to us by our Creator. These rights, not given to us by our government by any majority or by any vote, cannot be rescinded, for they were not wrought by man. Voting is a contradiction for it is both public and private at the same time. Its process is intended to be secret, but transparent. Its agency is intensely partisan, but its effect is intended to be unifying. The legitimacy of voting must survive despite the contradictions intrinsic to the process.
Trump’s Flynn Pardon:
Will the Judge Accept It?

Posted by MissMolly 11/26/2020 4:35:49 AM Post Reply
Will Judge Emmett Sullivan accept President Trump’s pardon of General Michael Flynn? No one has suggested that possibility, other than The New York Sun. The general’s case, though, has become a bonfire of the vanities of one district judge who has denied the presumption of regularity to an official act of the United States government — meaning Attorney General William Barr’s attempt to drop the case. So why would Judge Sullivan credit President Trump’s workaround of a pardon? We understand, the pardon could be the least fettered of all the powers that the Constitution grants to the president.
Dangerous Game of Monopoly 7 replies
Posted by MissMolly 11/26/2020 4:26:43 AM Post Reply
Many conservatives have moved their social-media accounts to the more freewheeling Parler, and often have slammed the supposedly monopolistic Facebook and Twitter as they’ve decamped from those sites. I have chuckled at some of their overheated parting rhetoric — especially the widespread misunderstanding about the meaning of the word “monopoly.” A monopoly is, as the Oxford dictionary explains, “the exclusive possession or control of the supply of or trade in a commodity or service.” Quite obviously, if one stops doing business with a company and heads over to its competitor, then the previous company is not by definition in exclusive possession or control of a service.

A circuit court ruled Monday that Texas and Louisiana can exclude Planned Parenthood from Medicaid funding, a win for the movement to deprive the abortion provider of federal funding. The Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overruled a district court's preliminary injunction preventing the exclusion of Planned Parenthood from Medicaid funding. The court of appeals ruled in an 11-5 majority that Planned Parenthood did not have the right to challenge the state's decisions regarding who receives Medicaid benefits. Medicaid beneficiaries "have no right under the statute to challenge a State’s determination that a provider is unqualified,"

Just in case you thought that all of the elections aside from the Georgia runoffs were behind us, well… they’re not. The counting is still going on in some of the congressional races and one of the tightest ones is in New York’s 22nd district. There, Democratic incumbent Anthony Brindisis is locked in a recount with Republican Claudia Tenney, who previously held the seat before him. The race gap between the two has come down to the point where Tenney is leading by 106 votes and the only ballots left to possibly be considered are the ones that were “set aside” during the initial count due to irregularities.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
