You don't get it. JTEX is a troll. He gets his jollies from insulting others. He contributes practically nothing to the forum, and I presume the world, except maybe some sperm long ago. He baits and trolls for bites, then he insults and nothing constructive comes from responding with him. Silently ignoring him isn't good enough for me. I'm passive aggressively ignoring him and want him to know it. He can say and insult me all he wants, bark at the moon, taint cyberspace, whatever. I just ignore him. I think it's a rare privilege to ignore him in a passive aggressive way. There are many people in the world who deserve to be ignored. Mostly it's in silence, and they don't know their impotence. Thank you Saeed for providing the ignore setting on this forum. I consider it a gift and use it sparingly. ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized.

Good one jeffe. Thanks for that insight. Takes one to know one. It's a matter of how one doles it out. After all, why bother with a forum passively? I could name two participants who IMO pretend passive, but I won't say names, to avoid being seen as aggressive unnecessarily. ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized.

And your opposition means nothing. You can’t even read the country.

Lane, in my opinion, Trump is a drag on the GOP. For reasons you have mentioned at length policy-wise, this was a horrible year for the democrats. The GOP should have a substantial majority in the house. They could have gained more in the senate. And the presidential race should have been a reganesque drubbing of the democrats. Yes, the GOP won, but it was in spite of Donald Trump… the democrats had bad policy, had been causing economic problems, major inflation during the last biennium, etc. Trump winning by a modest percentage in the electoral college and a pretty modest popular vote is not a ringing endorsement of him. Look at the numbers… Trump got a moderate amount fewer votes than in 2020. Harris got a lot fewer votes than Joe. It says more that the democrats were seen as a problem than Trump is seen as the answer. The GOP has the chance to show that they are the answer now that they won. Let’s hope that they don’t snatch defeat from the jaws of victory again. | |||

MO is an intersection state as well as KY. JY had a ballot incentive to allow public school funds to go to private, charter, and religious schools. Trump was rotted out to get the constitutional amendment over. The voters rejected it by 70 percent. However, Trump himself carried the state larger and quick. It was no surprise that Trump would do so. MO had Abortion access, Guaranteed Psid Suck Leave, and Increase in mandatory minimum wage. These are perceived as progressive policies that Trump’s GOP opposes. Every Ballot Incentive Won. However, President Trump carried MO easily. Here we see a disconnect by voters on Red States voting against GOP policy led by Trump, but voting for Trump the person. That is bc Trump’s support in this election is an expression of anger as follow: 1) The experience that did not come back soon enough, sufficient enough. The fact Trump would have seen the same inflation is too nuanced. Eggs were driven by supply shortages by the avian flu. 2) The border, Dems have treated the Hispanic vote as a monolithic block for too long and in a manner that insults those communities. We saw this in Hispanic communities in blue states. VP Harris won the state, but lost swaths of the Hispanics. My thoughts they are tired of feeling like a party treats thise who cheat, cut line, cause economic strain and crime stain in their communities get treated better then they do. They having done it the right way, the hard way. I have said bf a lot of this new migration is not the moving across the Mexico-Texas/SW border for labor by Mexicans. These masses from Central and South America have no cultural ties to that “traditional” migration. Exit polls bare this out. The number 1 and 2 voting concerns was the economy and the border. Thus, govern like you won by an aggregate of 75 percent instead of 7.5 percent. Govern like those state ballot initiatives are what people want after losing them at the state level. You will get a swing by the center, left and right, to the jaw in 2 years. | |||

I read a lot of political analyses. Most whether they like the man Trump or hate him admit he is the best retail politician to ever exist. That doesn’t make him a good leader by any means…just good at campaigns. Further, all of those people also write that he has pulled off two of the biggest political feats ever accomplished. The comeback he made this cycle will be spoken about for a century. The down ballot GOP far exceeded all predictions and all those same people talk about how big his coattails were on Tuesday. One of those I speak of is Karl Rove and doesn’t even like Trump. Further, he is the first Republican President elect to carry the popular since W the second time.

I will give Trump some credit. He was able to get a majority of the voters to vote for him despite a full on propaganda campaign against him from the media, the democrats, and the old guard in his own party. I don’t really read political analysis because I don’t think those folks really know any more than anyone else. Rove has been wrong more often than right. Ditto Carvell. Trump did accomplish something. However, I think the democrats did more to allow this to happen in their arrogance than Trump positively accomplished. Both of Trump’s victories have been against second rate talent that was put up for DEI reasons more than accomplishment. Note that both were immaculated by the democrat system rather than democrat voters. Karma was paid when the party claiming they were saving democracy failed to use the democratic process to find their nominee. Their hypocrisy did affect their voters. I do hope Trump does better than last time. I hope he doesn’t have the hubris to think it was all his ability, and none his opponents miscues and the overall situation the country was in. | |||

You have trouble with plain English, don't you? Where did I ever say I denied that Trump won or claim that he cheated? As a patriotic citizen, I accept the election results. More than can be said about the sore losers from 2020. So let's drop your bullshit and look at what I did say. I said Trump is not my president. I don't agree that a serial sex abuser, if not rapist, and convicted felon should be president. The masses are deluded. But they have acted on their delusions by voting. If Trump came to my door, I would not call him "sir," "Mr. President," or "President Trump." He will always be just "Trump" to me--said with all the disgust he's earned. I'd tell him to get the fuck off my porch. | |||

Just for fun, I looked up the summary endings for (1) Orwell's 1984 and (2) Sinclair Lewis' It Can't Happen Here. (1)In the end of 1984 by George Orwell, Winston Smith has become a model citizen. He and his lover, Julia, were captured by the Thought Police and tortured by O'Brien until they broke and conformed to society. https://study.com/academy/less...ormed%20to%20society. (2) Brief synopsis: https://www.sffchronicles.com/threads/587278/ Sinclair Lewis’ novel It Can’t Happen Here was written in 1935, as a warning to his fellow Americans not to be complacent in the fight against fascism. It has had something of a resurgence in recent years. Can't think why. The slide from wholesome Americana to abject misery is well-done. There’s something terribly sad about Windrip’s predictable-but-inevitable rise to power, a sort of bleak ritual like watching a country sleepwalk to the gallows. The leftists bicker uselessly; the dictator forms a militia of criminals and sadists to “protect the nation”; women, blacks, Jews and dissenters lose their jobs, their rights and then their lives. The sort of people who fret about law and order get to indulge their authoritarian streak until there’s no law or order left. We can see it all coming and, to Lewis’ credit, he allows some of his characters to see it too (they’ve witnessed Hitler’s rise, but of course the Nazis are weird foreigners far away), but the majority of people are too dim, deluded or desperate to unite to stop this maniac until it is far, far too late. After all, it can’t happen here. Ending: Jessup eventually escapes when his friends bribe one of the camp guards. He flees to Canada and rejoins the New Underground. He later serves the organization as a spy, passing along information and urging locals to resist Windrip. ================================================ There's another more recent book about avoiding Dystopia: It Could Happen Here: Why America Is Tipping from Hate to the Unthinkable―And How We Can Stop It [Greenblatt, Jonathan] I tried to cut & paste part of the book but couldn't.

I don't consider Soros an existential threat. That explains my disinterest in him. There's another aspect to your reply, Saeed. One that I didn't think of at first. If you are correct about Soros, that means he's not doing it for the money, but for humanitarian reasons. That's the other side of that coin. "The U.S. incarceration rate increased dramatically between 1970 and 2000, growing by about 400 percent—and resulting in the highest rate of incarceration in the world. This rise wasn't by accident. Elected officials and policymakers made deliberate decisions that grew the prison population." https://www.google.com/url?sa=...uDShb-D&opi=89978449 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...s_incarceration_rate United States incarceration rate =============================================== And another aspect: Quote: "Soros has been financing all the stupid DAs who refuse to punish criminals." I think "refuse" is misleading, or just plain incorrect, in the context of Soros and his bought DAs. The contrast, in context, is Trump and Team will pardon criminals already convicted, and thwart further prosecutions of loyalists. But actively pursue prosecutions on his opponents, all with taxpayer money. And Trump has been given immunity and impunity to do whatever he wants with no downside. Now, in the balance/scope of things, which is more existential and threatening to the rule of law? ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized. Thus "radicalized conservative" is an oxymoron.
