You mean the guy with 2 Bronze Stars for valour in combat? Instructor in counterinsurgency? Degrees from Princeton and Harvard? Yeah, totally unqualified....

Enough of the posturing and BS. If you REALLY believed Trump was a Nazi, then what should be done about it? Obviously a Nazi cannot be allowed to be President. So, take some steps. Recommend a course of action. Remember, Hitler started HIS career by participating in elections in Germany and then took over. WHat if Trump wants to do the same? So either put up or shut up. Or are you just blowing hot air and whining?

Guys, you can stop campaigning. The election is over. The Democrats lost. You don't need to keep trying to score points and play "gotcha" any more. Look to the future, the rosy future that America has just on the horizon.

Perhaps so, but these three do not qualify. I think I smell the faint waft of jealousy... or perhaps simple political distaste. It is a sad thing to equate people you disagree with to being unintelligent.

They are all both richer and smarter than any poster on AN.

I always thought that was hilarious. DeNiro trying to talk tough about Trump, playing the rough man. In reality he is just another coddled celebrity who reads the words that others put in front of him. And its a pity, because he is a generational talent as an actor. But that doesnt give him any cred as a political commentator whatsoever.

Just saw an interesting bit from Joe Rogan, explaining why an interview with Kamala Harris never happened. It was all about control. The Harris team wanted editorial control, wanted people in the room to wave off taboo subjects, wanted to control the time and the topics, etc. He invited them at first when Harris was in Texas for an event, got the silent treatment. Then, after Trump appeared, the Harris people approached Rogan with their requests. So of course Joe told them to beat it.

Not much of that will happen, especially now that Zelensky is on a timer to cut a deal. Crimea is gone, as is at least some territory in the eastern part of the country. Reparations will never happen. Security guarantee in return for not joining NATO. It is the best he can hope for unless he wants to completely bleed his country out.

Perhaps because there is no concensus on what it means for Ukraine to "win". What does it mean to you?

I always thought that choice was the way. Women already have 4 choices: celibacy, contraception, adoption, motherhood.

I looked up the definition of the phrase "damning someone with faint praise", and your post magically appeared! But yeah, now Joe can drop the facade, look forward to spending his remaining days on the beach, and try not to forget to pardon his son on the way out the door.

A couple years ago, Ivanka said that she was stepping back from politics in order to raise her 3 young children. She has kept that promise.

Shhhhh! Don't wake up "the woke"! Let them continue to campaign and operate on those ideas, the results will be delicious.

She will be unemployed as of January next year. So.... what is on the horizon? Rumour I heard is that she will run for California Governor in 2026 since Newsom, by law, is term limited and cannot run again. Possibly start a shelter for abused nannies and girlfriends?

Joe Biden texting Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi at 300am yesterday....

In other news, George W. Bush is a rare voice of sanity. His statement on the election was gracious and well written; I congratulate President Trump on his election as 47th President of the United States of America, as well as Vice President-elect J.D. Vance and their families. I also thank President Biden and Vice President Harris for their service to our country. The strong turnout in this election is a sign of the health of our republic and the strength of our democratic institutions. Laura and I are grateful to the election officials, poll workers, and volunteers who oversaw a free, fair, safe, and secure election. We join our fellow citizens in praying for the success of our new leaders at all levels of government. May God continue to bless our great country.

Quite probably true. In an ideal world for the Democrats, Biden would have announced he was not running for re-election a year ago. That would have given them time for a real primary contest, which Harris again may have lost. Had they chosen a sane candidate like Josh Shapiro, it would have been a lot closer, if not a different result. But they were prisoners of their own ideology and pride. The idea was "anyone can beat Trump, except Biden". So they screwed up, picked a rather feckless candidate, and got smoked. Time to live and learn.

Today's Jeopardy style quiz; ANSWER: Willie Brown and the 2024 Election. QUESTION: What are two things that Kamala Harris blew?

Hey now, there is no evidence of this. Unlike the evidence that he was raw dogging the nanny. Today's Joke; Now it is official, Trump has beaten more women than ol' Slugger Doug!

Yes we can. In fact, we are all now dusting off our hidden copies of Project 2025 and reading it. We are getting our highlighters ready and starting to mark the parts we want to enact first. The sound you hear is that of shuffling pages, and also demonic laughter. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

This is the trouble. The left can't help but sneer at and condescend to those who have the temerity to disagree with them. A huge mistake in 2016 and again this year. Trump uses a lot of insults against his opponents and the media, but he never to my knowledge made a disparaging remark about the American people. The people who do and make in America have spoken, and spoken loud. The talkers had better listen if they know what is good for them.

I think honestly it is actually a mirror of what THEY secretly wish to do. Stifle opposition, stifle speech, etc. People often are that way, they are noisiest about their own secret desires.

Well, Zelensky is now on a timer. He has about 2 months to get a deal done before the new broom comes into office. Winter is "off season" for the war, so hopefully something can be arranged to stop the insanity.

I think 4 votes. Alaska has 3 and Trump is ahead by 15% Another is a Maine congressional district, and he is ahead by 8%. That makes it official. Plus Michigan, Nevada..... a comprehensive win. Before CNN started crying and shuddering, they had some good analysis during the evening. John King showed that Trump outperformed his 2020 result by 3% or more in ONE THOUSAND counties in the US (out of about 4000). Harris outperformed Biden 2020 in just 50. That explains a lot.

Cool. Now that Trump has won, can you detail what steps will be taken that lead to the dictatorship you so fear? I asked before but you declined to answer. 1. Trump wins 2. ? 3. ? 4. ? 5. Dictatorship and no more elections. We have passed step one. What can we look forward to next?
