I've been casually observing the words and actions of these nutjobs since the election ended their reign of terror. What they provide is lots of excuses, anger, and denial over what happened. Most voters, applied some thinking, reasoning and logic in deciding the democrat's agenda represented by Harris combined with the Biden administration's record just didn't do anything for them personally. It had very little to do with misogyny or racism. So they voted for Trump, like him or not. His agenda resonated with the voters. If anything, it was a rejection of the far-left. The country's "tone" will shift more to the center. At the moment, these liberal temper tantrums are of no concern. Many are amusing to see but the cold, hard truth is the far-left has substantially less power over social and political direction after the election. Suddenly, at the national level, they've lost the power to get their way and throwing a pissy fit is their only option. I expect they'll retreat back to the world of academia where they feel "safe" from challenges to their belief system but even that could be at risk. If I read the intent of the incoming administration the billions in Federal funding they depend on to pursue their goals via NGOs and University grants is going to dry up. The government shouldn't be funding "extremists" of any type. If they think they're going to hurt people by their protest actions they're likely mistaken. If their actions involve some personal sacrifice on their part don't expect it to last very long. Pampered narcissists don't have the DNA for sacrifice. But for now enjoy the clown show.

The problem is a mid-level field manager issuing orders to subordinates that contradict or violate agency policy or its mission is a violation of the chain of command and rules of conduct and ethics. The offending official should get a fair hearing and if found in violation then fired. The fear for their own safety argument is irrelevant. Simply because it's an after the fact excuse when violating conduct was exposed.

The US government cannot go bankrupt. Because the Treasury's ability to create money and debt is unconstrained. They systematically erode the purchasing power of each unit of currency. Both parties do this. Regardless of Trump or Harris this is going to continue. What it means to you and me is the purchasing power of each unit of currency we hold in our wallets or earn is going to fall. But other issues decided the 2024 vote.

To sum up the Liberal Democrats self-reflection to this point. Regardless of the outcome, we're still right about everything but the voters are stupid and screwed up electing Trump, er I mean Hitler 2.0. This is a case of where their self-belief in their superior education and intelligence is a liability with understanding reality. Never have so many smart people turned out to be so dumb.

Do you want the Patriot Act repealed
All_Pro_Bills replied to Bockeye's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Not repeal it but some modifications to the FISA court procedures around probable cause (and consequences for lying to the judge) for warrants and more controls, accountability, and transparency on government mass surveillance and data collection activities on American citizens. -
Trump may not be a felon by this time next week
All_Pro_Bills replied to Einstein's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The charges were completely bogus. Possible misdemeanor violations with expired statute of limitations resurected through smoke and mirror laundering of charges to a felony level. Obviously most voters knew this to be true. But I caution NYS residents to be careful not to over-estimate the value of your home on a HELOC application because AG James might come after you for falsifying business records. Total BS. The smart move is to drop the charges as the war is lost but these people are not smart. -
I might get into trouble for pointing this out but women tend to "think" with emotion and intuition. Facts and evidence are afterthoughts. In this case emotions and intuition go to work conjuring up all kinds of scenarios about some authoritarian future. Most of it is hysteria and nonsense. But they believe it. Then if you're a man they try to make you believe it too. And if you don't then you're not on their side. I think most men involved with one of these liberal white women go along with this so the women in their lives don't spend a disproportionate time busting their balls.

I think your conclusion applies better in the past tense to the Biden administration than it does to future speculation on the incoming Trump administration. Because the middle class and poor were the exact groups that took it up the tail pipe under Biden/Harris. And when Kamala communicated her platform of change but stated clearly when asked that there was nothing about the Biden administration's polices and actions she would change voters asked exactly what change is she talking about forward from 2024? Both candidates are flawed and the majority choose the devil they know.

California (again)
All_Pro_Bills replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
California voters also passed Proposition 36 which makes crime illegal again. Seems like there is hope for sanity and common sense to prevail. -
Advice For Trump: Hunker Down
All_Pro_Bills replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You're probably right but its difficult to believe the cult of chaos has been brought to heel. Also, winning the popular vote eliminates the standard calls for dropping the electoral college and any justification to call for electors to change their votes to certify the election. -
President Elect Donald J. Trump
All_Pro_Bills replied to Walking Tall's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
It will be a classic episode but we all have a pretty good idea of the major story line. There will be extreme agreement that there's something wrong with all those voters that elected Trump. Racist, women haters that refuse to elect a woman of color because those attributes are all that matters. And absolutely no questioning of their personal judgment or opinions because they're simply superior to the simpletons that elected Hitler. There will be lots of wailing and tears but little to no inspection of their own opinions and beliefs. I can't wait for the secret reveal at the end of the show to find out which cast members will be moving to Canada before the inauguration. Do they realize it get very cold there in the winter? -
I agree with a lot of this. Old habits die hard the saying goes and it takes a lot for people to adjust their spending, prioritize needs over wants and cut back on unnecessary spending. I think the country faces enormous public and private debt issues that have no easy fix other than sacrificing the present to preserve the future and most Americans have no appetite for austerity. The problem with oil drilling is all the low cost, big fields have been depleted or discovered. If you look at the number of elephant deposits found by decade it shows.a clear picture of rapid decline. Higher marginal costs for lower production that's more expensive is what's left. It's smarter to finish keystone and import from Alberta and invest elsewhere in the economy.

In some ways the result is a rejection of identity politics. Voters want to hear about positions and issues that impact them. If Harris would have taken a genuine approach to discussing issues and concerns with clear positions rather than expose the voters to constant preaching from sorogates and celebrities then she would have performed better.

Joe & Mika with reverent Al on MSNBC are saying she lost because of misogyny, and of course, wait for it, racism. But mostly it's men's attitude towards women. White men. Black men. All men. In complete denial and refusing to admit the obvious that she wasn't a very good candidate.
