I cannot agree with part of the above:Florida was one of the few states to enact MEANINGFUL election reform.
The rest of the nation, is seeing an election stolen.
And that translates to Florida. Now it's in the sights of the Gates Foundation and the mutherWEFfers.
Expect grotesque changes forced upon the state, in the next two to four years. New Communist prosecutors; another Leftist governor...maybe a framing of DeSantis and an Impeachment or recall.
For the rest of us...I don't know. I'm not a big Name-Brand party partisan; but this was Good, or Mediocre, versus Demented Evil. And Evil won.
Listening to Tom Luongo this morning on my power-walk...he holds, correctly IMHO, that human nature will not be denied. We can pretend to an artificial reality for a short time - just as a child can pretend to be a fish for about a minute. But that pretension dissolves.
What Luongo asserts, is that how LONG the control-freak oligarchs keep control, is what determines how long the recovery is. The example he trots out, is the Dark Ages. Roman crypto-feudal oligarch-nobility, kept the peasants down for so many generations, they forgot the human essential quality of creativity. While Rome ran headlong into collapse, and suddenly there were no more bread and circuses to sustain the serfs.
It took them FOUR HUNDRED YEARS to rediscover the habits of industrious creativity, coupled to a re-valuing of all human life...the lives of their children, neighbors, and strangers. THAT was why it took this long for a vibrant world to reassert, posits Luongo.
Makes sense to me. Trouble is, I don't have four hundred years. Russia, after the fall of the Soviet Union, only took ten years to rediscover how to live like civilized people. THAT, I might have. Maybe.
Even that is a waste. But then, this stage was set long before I was made aware. In fact, nothing has changed, except for my reading of the situation. But I'm not liking what I read, at this point.
Forgot?So post #402 was the work of one of the other Russians posting from the Goldhedge account?
It's just the propaganda machine cranking back up to hyper speed that so many seem to like to suck the teat of.Trump announced his 3rd run last night. News outlets having a field day (Trump sells.)
that's because millions quit working/looking for work. 'unemployment' as reported by (their media) is bullsh-tWith your guy we got that same 3.7% unemployment
He was responsible for slowing down the establishment pay for play system in DC. For that both parties want nothing to do with him.It's just the propaganda machine cranking back up to hyper speed that so many seem to like to suck the teat of.
I'm still waiting for anyone to explain what he did as potus that was so terrible that he must be destroyed for having done.
He may have his faults, but the nation and its people were better off, even if half the people are too proud and/or ignorant to admit it.
3.7% unemployment, 1.4% inflation, $1.80 gas, average household $4000/year richer, oil independence and mfging coming back.
....oh, and reduced chances of war.
With your guy we got that same 3.7% unemployment, but with 8% inflation, $5 gas, households $5000/year poorer, oil dependency on nations that hate us and a return to more off-shoring of jobs.
....and a marked increase of the risk of WW3.
But we don't have to read mean tweets anymore, so it was worth it, right? Lol
He's tired..........
Well, using political-speak here... If he ain't IN Chi-town, then he most ricky-tick is FROM Chi-town, right?Truthful a bit, but he is not "From Chicago". Nothing could be further from the truth.
His knees are probably as calloused as Kamala's.
Trump wasn't as easily controlled as the oligarchs would have liked.It's just the propaganda machine cranking back up to hyper speed that so many seem to like to suck the teat of.

Which is as good a reason as any to have him as potus.Trump wasn't as easily controlled as the oligarchs would have liked.
The problem, in broad strokes, is that the Elites have become insular...parochial. They never get out of their bubble.Which is as good a reason as any to have him as potus.
The only alternative is to have one of them as potus.
....but why on Earth would we want to make them happy? To do what they want, makes ya one of 'em.
Wisconsingood luck with that
i am still waiting on the court results from all the voting irregularities of the 2020 general election in states like Georgia , Pennsylvania , Michigan , and Arizona……im sure i missed a state or two
absurd ...
Yeah, I understood. While it may be surprising to some folks here, not every Republican is on the 100% MAGA TRUMP ELECTION STOLEN train. There is a significant amount of Republicans who rejected the Trump train by voting against the Trumpiest candidates on the ballot(s). YMMV.
McConnell is still leader
Yea, the commies certainly seem to have grown in number.Lots of no votes shows how far this world has gone down the $hithole.
