DEFUND THE SECRET SERVICE on 1/20/2025

That is all.

November 6, 2024

I don't even----- this is the worst-case scenario, entirely un-imaginable, am I wrong for not siding with

THE NAZIs ??????

I'm an older guy. Perhaps the problem is that too many younger Americans have no conception
about who The Nazis were, and who the Nazis ARE----

(bad education--- the conservatives were right!!!!)

November 6, 2024

Everyone who said that Republicans are Nazis were CORRECT!

STUPID MOTHERFUCKING NAZI CANNON-FODDER with their food-sucking noses down to the ground, and they never had a brain

they don't even know who/what Hitler is, but they are bound to find out, now

The Mexican Dictator Santa Anna "did some good things"---

his government outlawed slavery, which is one of the major reasons for which the southern Americans in Texas rebelled against him!

I JUST SHOT MY TELEVISION when they started the Greenwood song....

(Ok, I didn't really shoot it, although I could have.... but I can't afford another..... so I turned it off)


Would have been a damned waste of a perfectly good shotgun shell.

"GO AHEAD AND HATE YOUR NEIGHBOR, GO AHEAD AND CHEAT A FRIEND !!!"

It appears to be what it now takes to win a presidential election, in our beloved country

Also, it might help to have a penis--- however small and stupid--- oh, and a WHITE penis would probably help

(speaking as a white man who has one---- I cannot recall how it ever led me to any good decisions,
other than "you need to pee-- right now!" )

Sorry. I'm not in a good mood.... but always did love this song---

and doing my best not to explicitly state all the thoughts that are flooding my mind right now.
Almost ALL of them would justly earn me a hide, under current site rules... so I will try to go no further....


Drowning in a sea of madness, that is all

U.S. Releases Strategic Alcohol Reserve Before Election Night

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Responding to “a situation of utmost urgency,” President Biden released the nation’s Strategic Alcohol Reserve just hours before Election Night.

Immediately following the announcement, the price of vodka dipped below three dollars a gallon and Biden’s approval rating surged to 94 percent.

But even as Americans cheered, experts warned that excessive liquor consumption could cause severe mental impairment akin to that exhibited by undecided voters.

Statistics show that the nation’s alcohol supply has been under acute pressure since November of 2016.

THANKS, DARK BRANDON!!!!

The "Trump magic" in Iowa is past its "sell by" date.... thanks to WOMEN!

(The Des Moines Register just published their final poll of Iowa, which gave Kamala Harris a lead of 3 percentage points over Trump in their state!)
https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/politics/iowa-poll/2024/11/02/iowa-poll-kamala-harris-leads-donald-trump-2024-presidential-race/75354033007/


I have never quite understood the apparent shift of Iowa to a strongly Republican state, but I guess it was just a 'Trump thing' . Iowa is very rural, and Trump has always performed best with that demographic.

However, for many elections post-Reagan, Iowa voted for the Democratic candidate---
the start of that streak was 1988, for pete's sake, when DUKAKIS won Iowa even in the midst of his landslide loss to Bush Sr.:
https://www.270towin.com/1988_Election/

The Democratic presidential nominee also won Iowa twice with Clinton, once with Gore, and twice with Obama.
Between 1988 and 2012, the Democrats only lost Iowa once, in 2004.... then Trump won it twice in 2016 and 2020.


But it seems that 2024 is a different year again, and all the metrics are with the Democrats.
Seems that Iowa women don't like their rights being taken away....

I think Harris-Walz should send someone to Iowa before it's over---
probably not Harris or Walz, but at least a top surrogate for at least ONE rally!
(although Governor Walz would seem like a 'natural' for this particular state, his neighbor!)


The article I read says neither campaign even has an office there, although I suppose both state parties do---
our side should make an appearance! An Obama or Clinton or the Vice President's husband--- just somebody!!!!

An extra 6 electoral votes could come in handy, and help create multiple paths to victory in this election!


The Des Moines Register poll has always been respectably credible.

Trump has had an HISTORIC WEEK as a presidential candidate!!!!!!!

I think he may have FINALLY reached "rock bottom"--- BUT---
there's still three more days.....

Well, let's see....

The Madison Square Garden rally which invoked memories of the pro-Nazi 1938 rally,
where his "comedian" said that Puerto Rico was a floating island of garbage--
enraging what may turn out to be a pivotal block of voters across the swing states....

His response to the outrage was to dress up as a garbage man,
and had trouble finding the door handle to get into his own garbage truck....

His sickophants (sic) had a hissy-fit over pro-Kamala advertisements
which remind women that they are in control of their own vote,
and have the right to vote for whomever they wish, regardless of what their husband thinks
(their reaction drew more attention to the ad, than the rather clever ad itself was getting,
up to that point--- possibly)


He made remarks about shoving Liz Cheney in front of nine rifles "aimed at her face"---

(OK, he didn't explicitly say it was a "firing squad" in this case,
although he has suggested that for others---- but they were CLEARLY remarks
that could encourage violent acts against her from his followers,
and I think that was the point--- that is ALWAYS the point, with him)

then he tried to walk the remarks back, keeping them in the next news cycle.... good work, DonOLD


And finally, he mimicked masturbation, and giving a blowjob to someone's huge dick
in front of one of his rally crowds (possibly still obsessing over Arnold Palmer---
or acting out for the audience 'being Putin's toy lapdog, I can't quite decide which)


I think he may have finally reached "rock bottom" with that---
I presume it was some kind of intended insult against our candidate--- BUT---
the visuals stand alone. I can't quite bleach my brain away from that one......


Seems I must invoke a new 'presidential candidate rule' here, is that #4 or #5?? Anyway---

"Presidential candidates should not mime masturbation or performing oral sex
in front of the cameras"


Christ on the mountain, or the devil in the shithole.....

(I'd like to see that replayed on Meet The Press or Face The Nation--- but I suppose that is a bridge too far)


In conclusion--- I think he may have finally found the bottom of his campaign shit-hole---
but who knows what happens tomorrow. I am started to enjoy this
in a perverted sort of way....

I have a saying about "trainwrecks"---

There's "trainwrecks"---
and then there's "trainwrecks where they go around afterwards,
shooting the survivors"


DonOLD's campaign is starting to resemble the second kind.


We ARE going to win. The alternative is simply impossible.
