"New Red America"

Did you know you own the air above your house?  Well, actually only the airspace you can reasonably use.  The rest "belongs" to the FAA.  That's the Federal Aeronautics Administration.  They control air travel.  And they "own" such air as is necessary for planes to fly around above our heads, all hither and yon.  And that's because our states have ceded such authority to the FAA, by way of the Federal Government, for it to accomplish this effort.  Or at least they have until now...

Did you ever wonder what might happen if a state decided to withdraw such permission?  What if a bunch of states decided to do that?  All together?  Such as all the states that decided to vote for "Red" candidates in the most recent General Election?  Which is all the states in the middle of the Country?  How interesting.  Especially because I just took a good hard look at our "New Map..."  

That's the one that's resulted from our most recent Election.  The one that appears to show that all of the states in the West, and all of the states in New England and the Mid-Atlantic area voted for Biden and the Democrat Party.  

Turns out they are called "Coastal Elites" for a reason.  In other words, the Election that left all of the states in the Middle of America a beautiful Solid Red.  In short, our New Map shows America as having divided itself along political lines; Coastal Elites on either side, Flag-Waving 'Muricans in the middle.  

Sort of like a sandwich made with moldy bread.

To that I'd add the results of a recent national poll.  It reflected that fully 78% of Republican voters believe the Election was stolen from them.  It shows that 3 out of 4 Trump voters believe they were screwed!  And, considering that 74 million people voted for him, that means nearly 40% of America is Pissed Off!  They're mad as Hell and they're not gonna' take it anymore!"

Well, fellow Pilgrims, I have an idea how they can get some of that dreaded "payback."  I propose that the "Red" states join together into a new "Conservative Coalition."  A "union" of sovereign individual states, banded together for safety and security.  Like they did under the 10th Amendment.  Which isn't working for them so well anymore.

States that could not only require a passport to enter, but official permission for a "flyover."  In other words, a state owns the air above itself; it could therefore decide to withhold the right of "flyover" to any plane it chooses.  And that plane could belong to...gulp!...the United.  States.  of.  America!    

Remember that pesky 10th Amendment I just mentioned?  The last one in the Bill of Rights?  The one that states that the only Rights ceded to the Federal Government by the states are those specifically enumerated by those states?  Meaning not ceded, not granted?  And that could, and I emphasize COULD, include the Right to enter or travel within a particular state's airspace.  And if that Right is specifically withheld, especially if it also contains a threat, then an airplane would have to choose an alternate route of travel so as to avoid a potential legal jam.  Or...gulp again!...getting shot down!  By a member of the "New Red America" air force.  And you might recall there's about 40 Air Force bases in New Red America.  And if all the states were to so choose, then an airplane attempting to travel from LAX to NYC, for example, would have to fly via Canada or Mexico to achieve its destination.  A 2,600 mile flight it could quickly become a 6,000 mile flight.  Made necessary to avoid some of that, ummm, conflict.  Are you picking up what I'm putting down?

Do you think those pickup-driving, flag-waving, beer-swilling, hot dog- and freedom-loving 'Muricans would shoot down a flight illegally entering their airspace?  A flight coming from the place that just screwed them out of an Election?  From a place that's trying to legislate their speech and their morality and their religion and their freedom?  I'm thinking that yes, they would.  With glee!  That thought just might cause airlines operating from Coastal/East Coast Elite airports to think a time or two before takeoff, right?

Orrrrr, New Red America could accept something in value in exchange for the Right of Free Travel across its airspace.  No longer having the White House, perhaps New Red America could use the threat of force to exact legislative accomplishments.  Maybe they could cause TV stations to cease carrying the signals of Coastal networks.  And maybe they could censor the print media within their borders.  And the social media companies, too.  And maybe they could build some of those "beautiful walls" which Trump made so popular.  Walls separating New Red America from the states on either side.  Big walls.  Walls big enough to keep out those who choose to live in either Coastal area.  

Especially folks like San Fran Nan Pelosi.  

Maybe it's just time to realize that the Coastal types do not, and will not, ever agree with us about God and guns and religion and Gummint and abortion and taxes and freedom.  Maybe they're just A-okay with having people take away their freedoms, one at a time, little by little, like that proverbial frog in a pot of lukewarm water...just waiting for the heat to be turned up.  To boiling.  But those in the middle of the Country are not among those folks.  

And never will be...

French Laundry: Update...

I don't usually do updates.  But this one's just too juicy to ignore...

You'll recall I pulled back the curtain for you on our Boy Guv's trip to the now infamous French Laundry.  The French Laundry is perhaps our very finest, and most expensive restaurant, and one at which I would dearly liked to have experienced personally.  3 Michelin stars since 2007, it has, and deserves every one of them, we're told.  And California's Governor Gavin Newsom, along with who we now know to be 22 of his very best friends, all lobbyists for the California Medical Association, dined out in splendor and luxury a couple of weeks past.

It was originally reported by his crowd to be only10 guests, but we now know that was also a lie.

But what I found of interest is that the wine ticket for this little dinner party was...wait for it...$15,000!

Now, as a certified lecturer on all things wine, and as someone who has put away far more of this God-given stuff that perhaps any other mortal living, I'd like to tell you it takes a lot of wine to equal $15,000!  Unless, of course, it is ordered up and imbibed at a watering hole of such legendary accomplishments as this.

Newsom was invited to this little soiree by his friends in the CMA to celebrate a lobbyist buddy's birthday.  And we now know, as I reported, that Newsom attended this dinner in direct violation of his own executive orders.  "Okay for me, but not for thee," says Newsom.  But it gets worse.  The per-person average ticket to eat at this pleasure palace is over $1,000.  And that does not include the wine.  Whoa boy, does it ever not include the wine!  Hang on and you'll find out why that's an important line item missing from news that's been so far reported.

Now, whether there were only 10 guests at this Caligula-style, wretched excess feeding or 22, $15 Grand worth of wine divided back through the number of diners is still a whole lot of wine!  That's over $700 per person!  And I don't care what each bottle cost!  (Actually I do, as it was over $850 per bottle!).  And from what we're told, the guests, including Newsom, drove themselves home.  Seems to me a bunch of DUI's was missed by our Boys in Blue.  Who most likely sheparded him home...

And then there's the question of who paid for this wine.  And the dinner.  We know that California law prohibits an elected official from receiving more than $10 per month in gifts.  And no more than $500 in aggregate in any one year (how many sips of $850 per bottle wine does it take to equal $500?).  So if he didn't pay for the dinner, and we're told the CA Med Assn. did, then he's guilty of receiving graft.  And he's therefore proven to be corrupt.  Of course we all knew that, but now we have the proof...

And once again, there were no masks worn.  By anyone.  We know.  We have photos.  And there was no effort to "socially distance."  Each diner was cheek by jowl, laughing it up.  Laughing so loud, we're told, that the restaurant's other guests complained and the management had to close the doors to the private room in which they were dining.  A room.  Indoors.  Not outdoors, as they first told us.  Another lie.  Surprise!

So, fellow Californians, our governor told us all to stay home, to socially-distance, to wear masks, even indoors, and be to damned happy his orders weren't even more draconian.  And he dined out, with his wife, and another 20 guests, indoors, at a restaurant, where the likely $40,000 bill for food and wine was paid for by a lobbyist.  Illegally.

I recall a time when our elected leaders tried to hide their graft and corruption.  No longer, it seems.  We're just that stupid, it seems...

Awwwwww...

You know who I feel sorry for?  The so-called "MainStreamMedia," that's who.

Those poor schlubs have been doing "Orange Man Bad" non-stop, 24/7 for nigh on to five years now.  Nothing else.  Just Trump Bad.  All day.  All night.  For Five. Full. Years.  

First, Trump was a Russian spy.  Incredulously, they seemed to believe that they could make America believe that Donald J. Trump, (in)famous raconteur, man-about-town, philanderer, builder of hotels, golf courses, casinos and brands, reality TV star and dedicated Democrat for more than 40 years, was a - gulp! - Russian spy!  In the pocket of Putin, they said.  Yeah, sure.  

The ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN/MSNBC/PBS/NPR blow-dried, bed-wetting crowd hippppmotizzzed themselves into believing that Trump could not possibly have won in 2016, against deeply-flawed, universally despised, inveterate liar and screaming harpy Hillary Clinton, without Russian assistance.  Or assistance from SOMEbody!  No way he could have convinced America to vote for him against a proven liar with a voice like fingernails on a blackboard without Vladamir's help.  No way...

So they built their entire daily programming around and against Trump.  Everything they did was designed to turn America against him, and everyone who represented him.  And everyone who might vote for him.  And business was good.  Their ratings were stupendous, and their ad revenue soared.  

But then, lightning stuck.  The Mueller Report exonerated Trump.  Mueller spent two and one-half years and $40 Million of our tax dollars an effort to run Trump out of office.  He was unsuccessful.  So the "MSM" then had a hard decision to face; apologize to their audiences for having lied to them for 3+ years, and promise to do better in the future, or just keep on shoveling out the lies and the bullshi*t to their believe-anything audiences.  

They chose the latter.

And then it was impeachment time!  The "MSM" slavishly reported on the trial as it unfolded.  Every day brought another breathless accounting of just how mean and nasty Trump really is.  Months were wasted as they scorched Trump all day every day.  For a phone call!  To Ukraine, of all things!  You may recall that a Chinese Wuhan Coronavirus pandemic was raging outside the Capitol Dome, yet the Congress - with the help from their friends in the "MSM" - preferred to spend their time on destroying Trump.  On running him out of town on a rail.  Perhaps they were all worried he might win reelection so they had to dirty him up a little...

How prescient of them...

But now, the Election is over.  It seems that our Orange Man has been defeated by a scrawny old coot who's biggest challenge may now well be dodging Karmela's efforts to unseat him.  So while Biden putters around the Rose Garden, looking over his shoulder continuously, the "MSM" will be busying itself in an effort to try and find somebody else to blame...for everything.  But I predict that for the next several months, at least, no matter what happens, it will still be Trump's fault.  Pay attention.  You will learn.  It Will Still Be Trump's Fault! 

NoKo no longer making nice?  Trump's fault.

Manufacturers heading on back to China?  Trump's fault.

Black-clad "Antifa" and "Black Lives Matter" hellions still burning and looting?  Trump's fault.

The "rich" still unwilling to pay their "fair share?"  Trump's fault.

Fearful folks still buying guns in droves?"  Trump's fault.

Unemployment rate heading skyward?  Trump's fault.

Virus still uncontained?  Trump's fault.  

Iran not universally disarming?  Trump's fault.  

Israel still building settlements in the Golan?  Trump's fault.  

Climate still "changing?"  Trump's fault.

Everything even remotely negative, all Trump's fault.  You get the idea...

But while the "MSM" and the raging harpies who've been nipping at Trump's heels waste their time in such a futile effort, I predict Trump will be working overtime to try and put a hole in their collective boats.  And whether or not he ultimately wins this particular contest, and it just might be best for the Democrats if he did, he will still be a turd in their punchbowls for the foreseeable future.  But while they're still doing their best to blame him for everything, including all of Biden's screwups, he'll be hiding in the bushes just waiting for any chance to throw rocks at them.  With nothing... NOTHING...to stop him.  And more than 74 Million Angry Voters still believing that this Election was stolen from them.  And they are the ones will all the guns... 

And you and I and everybody else will be able to sit back and watch it unfold.  And it will be glorious.  And pay attention here Netflix, it will all be free! 

So Here's The Plan...

You've heard by now that the governors of several states, and a few mayors, and a bunch of city council members, and perhaps a Forest Ranger or two, have arbitrarily - and some would say unconstitutionally - decided to try and limit the number of guests their citizens may invite to Thanksgiving Day Dinner.

Ummmm, what?  Is nothing sacred anymore?  Limiting the number of guests to T-Day Dinner?  Our most family-important holiday?  One governor even ordered family members in excess of six not to attend the festivities.  And our Boy Guv, Gavin Newsom, famous frequenter of the tony French Laundry restaurant, has even ordered us, his peons, not only to wear masks indoors and to the dinner table, but to replace those masks between bites.

Can you say "dumbass?"

Seems to me these are the same sort of busybody troublemakers who wind up on your HOA board and try and fine you for having bushes too high or flying the American Flag.

Has there been any directives yet on how we should wipe our collective arses and the number of sheets of toilet paper we may use?  Just asking...

I dunno' about you, but I don't cotton to people telling me what to do.  Especially when they have no right to do so.  Americans are like that.  I'm like that.  We enjoying being free, and we get our hackles all up when some bozo decides to try and invade our privacy and order us around.  Not a good idea.  And the Governor of the once-Golden State of California has no right to tell me, or anyone, how many folks I can invite to dinner.  Any dinner.  Anytime.  Ever.  Got it?  Okay.

We are adults, Boy Guv.  Stay out of our business and leave us alone.  And while you're at it, you might wish to review a copy of the 1st Amendment.  Especially the part about guaranteeing "...the right of the people to peacefully assemble."

So.  Here's my suggested plan in the event there's an errant policeman or highway patrolman or HOA board member or two who's ordered to your house to arrest you for over-serving.  If you see them coming to your front door to investigate, and count guests, and collect the bird and the side dishes and the dinnerware, so as to write you up for violating the law (Oregon's Guv Kate Brown declared up to a $1,250 fine and a year in jail!), I suggest you turn the tables on them.  A couple of your designated guests sneak out the back door, go around the house, and proceed to set fire to their patrol cars.  It's not hard, really.  Just pour a little kerosene on the roof and hood and trunk and light the match.  They will go up in a glorious, civil disobedience-sort of way.  And when the coppers run out the front door screaming at you, just hold up your pre-made signs.  Tell them it's a protest against our ham-handed, authoritarian gummint and it'll all be okay.

If you have any problems with this, just ask any "Black Lives Matters" follower and they'll show you how to burn down police cars.  They're really good at it...

So when the gendarmes try and arrest you, just tell them that yours is the very same sort of protest that's permitted legions of black-clad goons to burn down cities for months.  And loot, and pillage, and plunder, and hurt cops.  And cause $Billions of Dollars of damage.  And for which not a Goddammed thing has happened.  Not a criminal found guilty.  And all you have to do is emulate their actions and neither will you.   

And even if you were, they would immediately release you from jail to avoid unnecessary Killer Virus contamination. 

If this looks and feels like an SNL comedy skit, it is...  

Think back.  Has anyone, anywhere, so far, been arrested and tried and convicted of burning a police car?  Any of the hundreds of them?  Or convenience stores?  Or anywhere else for that matter?  This has happened over and over again in dozens of Democrat-led cities.  Think hard.  I think you'll get it.  It seems they can arrest you for a house-full of turkey and overstuffed guests, but not for destroying cop cars and burning down jewelry stores.  Which the taxpayers will have to replace.  Which includes...you.

Is America a (once) great place, or what?  

The French Laundry...

(NOTE:  My spellcheck disappeared.  Just like that, it magically went away.  And I can't find it, either.  I never was all that technologically competent, so I go forward not knowing whether my most dogged attempts at spelling everything correctly will work; they may not.  But if they don't, just remember, you can't beat the price...)

You've no doubt by now heard about our Boy Guv's pricey little birthday party dinner he held at Napa's most celebrated, and America's most expensive, restaurant.

Yes, he, San Fran Nan Pelosi's nephew, and J. Paul Getty's Godson, and the once-Golden State's Governor, is the very same guy who ordered us, his plebes, his serfs, his unwashed peons, to go home and stay there.  No little gettogethers, no parties, no Thanksgiving dinners of more than ten, even if it's with your own family. 

Yet, like many politicians, he decided that his rules don't apply to him.  Or his wife or family.  He decided to attend a birthday party for a long-time lobbyist and friend at Napa's famous French Laundry restaurant.  And by famous, I mean FAMOUS!

How famous is it?  The French Laundry has owned its 3 Michelin stars since 2007.  It is generally considered America's finest restaurant.  And whether it is or not, it is most assuredly our most EXPENSIVE restaurant.  If you can get reservations, and that's a big IF, you can expect to pay up to $1,000 a person to taste their apparently wonderful food.  And I say "apparently" because I've as yet not had the chance to eat there.

But I once tried.  And this unassuming little posting will tell that story...

My dearly departed wife Elaine and I decided to celebrate our wedding anniversary with a Napa splurge.  We made reservations at the gilt-edged Silverado Golf and Country Club for a four day-three night vacay to end all vacays.  And we arrived filled with expectations of great food and even greater wine.  We checked into our suite ($500 per night...and that was 15 years ago!) around 4:00 p.m., dropped off our bags and headed off to try and score a great meal at the world-famous French Laundry.  As foodies, we'd heard great things about this famous place and were looking forward to experiencing it, and a number of other Wine Country restaurants.  But getting a reservation there was nigh on to impossible!  I know, I had tried.  For the weeks leading up to our vacation.  But I figured if we got there at the exact moment it opened, which was 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, we might be able to sneak in and snag a meal before all the big stuff started happening.  Great plan, huh?

We pulled up in front of the French Laundry at 4:45 early on a Thursday evening.  Door locked, nobody in this tiny little town within blocks.  We went around to the rear.  The restaurant backs up to a set of train tracks and a dusty lot.  We parked and walked up to the door.  It was locked also.  There, carefully hung next to the door, was a copy of that day's menu.  We read it voraciously.  It was a thing of beauty.  "Long Island Duckling With Cherry Confit" this, and Braised Elk Shank in Lobster Sauce" that.  And the Special of the Day was a tasting menu of nine items for "only" $175.00.  And that was two decades ago!  Gulp!  Our mouths were watering.  And my wallet was shrinking.  

Turns out the now $350 per person menu at Newsom's little dinner on November 18th featured "Wolfe Ranch White Quail "Presse," which could have been upgraded to "Rolled Risotto 'Agnolotti'" for "only" an additional $175.00.  

You could also upgrade your "Herb Roasted Elysian Fields Farm Lamb" for the penultimate "Japanese Wagyu 'Poele'" for an additional $100.

Wine?  Sure.  The white wine starts at $35.00 per glass.  Bottles start at $150.  And if you'd care to bring in your own bottle, they'll charge you $175.00 to open it for you.  Which takes about one minute.  Ummm, yeah.  Apparently I went to the wrong school.

Anyway, my nose was pressed up against the door glass on that day long, long ago.  The lights were off and nobody was yet stirring.  Except a guy in a chef's coat who I could see walking around in the shadows.  I tapped on the door.  Lightly.  He came our way and opened the door, just a crack.  "Yes, can I help you,?" he asked?  "Sure," I said, "We're here for dinner.  Can you seat us?"  He asked, "Do you have a reservation?" without even looking at us.  I said "Unfortunately, no, but I was hoping you could sneak us in before the rush starts."  He burst out laughing.  A full-on belly laugh.  The suddenness of his doing so caught us off guard.  He laughed long and hard and in a way that made us to know that we had asked a really stupid and ridiculous question, which we should never have asked, and if we had any couth at all we wouldn't have, and that we should probably get our car and go back to whatever little redneck village that had spawned us.  Oh, and never return.

I asked again, "But can't you just seat us, over in a corner somewhere?  We'd be gone in like 20 minutes.  We'll sit at the bar.  We've been so looking forward to experiencing your wonderful food.  You can serve us anything you wish."  He laughed again.  Harder this time.  And then he said, "Don't you know that if the word got out I'd fed someone who didn't go through our reservation process, our reputation in the restaurant community here would be shot?"  

I frankly didn't know what to say.  And as a salesman, that's saying something.  I was expecting this guy to say anything but that.  Anything but that his reputation would be ruined with the locals if he didn't crap on people just like the entire Napa winery and restaurant and hotel community does, Every. Single. Day.  Anything but stooping to feed a couple of hungry tourists, for waaaaay too much money, even though there was not another human in the entire restaurant, would ruin his vaunted reputation among his oh-so-cool peers.  

And so I came to know I wasn't going to be able to cross this off item off my Bucket List.  Upon leaving I asked him his name.  He said "Herman Keller."  The owner.  The owner had blown us off.  The owner apparently was do damn rich, and so damn successful, and so damn full of himself, that he no longer felt the need to serve a couple of hungry customers.

Which is why he got into the business in the first place.

Keller didn't know who we were that day, nor did he ask.  He didn't care.  But I can tell you I've made it my business to tell anyone I can, every time I can, ever since, that if they are hungry for some really fine food, and even if they have a pocket full of cash to pay for it, please take that money someplace else.  The French Laundry doesn't deserve your patronage.  It doesn't deserve your favoritism.  It doesn't deserve your time or attention.

As I'm wrapping up this little trip down memory lane, I'd like to say, screw the French Laundry.  And also, screw Herman Keller.  And while we're at it, screw our Boy Guv, especially for having the temerity to try and tell you and me what to do with our plebian lives while doing the exact opposite.  And to all my friends and neighbors, wash your hands, like you were taught to do in the 2nd grade, wear a mask when necessary, even though you don't want to, and stay six (6) feet apart from others.  

Remember, the Chinese Wuhan Killer Coronavirus can only travel 5 feet...

A Word to the Wise...

I remember indelibly the day Barack Hussein Obama was elected President of the United States.

Like it was yesterday.  No, this morning.  Twenty minutes ago...

As an inveterate entrepreneur, businessman, news watcher and history buff (and also someone who will be "identifying" as Black if reparations are embraced by the incoming Administration), I'd followed Barack Hussein Obama's meteoric career since he ran for the Illinois State Senate way back in the early 2000's.  As such, I knew that he was a hardened socialist delivered in a pleasing-to-some, traditional Democrat Party wrapper.  I knew he'd been groomed by dedicated, hardened socialists (Frank Marshall?  George Soros?), dead-set on overthrowing our capitalist system, and was ready to unleash his substantial "gifts" upon America.  And I knew he was on record as saying if he ever got the chance he'd eliminate the 2nd Amendment and our rights to firearm ownership.  

Look it up.  The video's on YouTube...

I therefore actively supported Mitt Romney back then even though I was not, and am not, a Romney fan.  Romney's a Milquetoast-ian squish who gives me the creeps, but he was better than an inveterate liar and socialist schemer.  Sort of like people voted for Trump because they didn't like Hil(liar)y.  They didn't like her a whole lot.  Same thing.

Like the man said, "My enemy's enemy...is my friend."

Anyway, I was crestfallen.  Downtrodden.  Angry.  Depressed.  Pissed off.  Near suicidal.  And so was about half the Country.  Sort of like now.  About half of us voted for Romney, hoping - praying - that Obama would lose.  They didn't get their wish.  Or prayer.  And so they had a choice.  We all had a choice: "Option One:"  go on with our lives, keeping our heads down, hoping for the best, girding our loins for the worst; or "Option Two:" taking it to the streets, rioting, looting, burning, stealing, breaking things, hurting people and setting fires.  

Actually, there was no "Option Two" for us.*  We Republicans and Conservatives have never done that and would never do that.  We don't burn down our homes and businesses.  So we chose the former.  To America's benefit.**

Now?  Because Trump won the General Election in 2016, some of the half of the Country that voted against him chose "Option 2."  We now know that Clinton hired a former British spy to create a bogus dossier in an effort to create a fake Russian collusion rumor against Trump.  She did this so she could sidestep responsibility for having a non-Government computer server, and destroying some 33,000 Government-owned emails she was under a Congressional subpoena to deliver, for which she remains legally culpable.  This is all true, BTW.  And to also try and destroy first Trump's candidacy, and then his Presidency.

Sort of like now. 

And recently released data indicates that both Obama and Biden were not only aware of this nefarious scheme, but approved it.  Yes they did.  And because the so-called "MainStreamMedia" manages to keep the truth from an enormous percentage of our unenlightened population, through never before seen censorship, this little "secret" remains so.

The Democrat National Committee, and our "MSM," helped try and elect Clinton.  And the Democrats have done everything in their power, aided by their lap dog Media-types, to include impeaching him, in an effort to mount a coup.  A way of forcing Trump from office.  Sort of like now.

And when that didn't work, and as we headed into the next General Election, some of those same Biden's Voters, to include "Antifa," and "Black Lives Matters," started setting fire to 48 Democrat-led cities and counties throughout America.  They looted, and burned, and destroyed businesses, and government buildings, and churches, and statues everywhere.  And they hurt and killed cops.  And they are continuing to do so as this is written...

So when we Republican and Conservative voters lost to Obama, we went on home and licked our wounds.  Through bitter tears we hoped, "Better luck next time."

But when Democrat and socialist and Marxist and communist voters lost, they decided to try and destroy America.  And keep on trying to destroy it unless and until either Trump left office, or Biden won.  And in that case, even, there's no reason at all to suspect they might stop; they like breaking things and hurting people!  That's because they're anarchists!  We know that.  You know that.  THEY know that...

Apparently the only ones who don't know that are the limp-wristed, bed-wetting, blow-dried, nearly hysterical talking heads on the Left-wing TV channels (which is to say most TV channels).  They keep trying to lie to us about the level and degree of rioting.  They hope we won't notice.  They hope we won't notice that Portland is on fire.  And Seattle.  And Rochester, Minnesota.  What a bunch of commie pukes!

So I, The Chuckmeister, am ready to sign off.  With this message:  I'm not worried about "Biden Voters" and their efforts to destroy America.  And I'm not worried about "Trump Voters" and whether they'll accept the (certified) results of this Election.  So long as it's legal, and can be proven so, Trump Voters will, just like always, accept the results and go on home.  Back to the pharmacy, or the convenience store, or the Chevy dealership, or the lumberyard.  Just like they have after every single election that's preceded it for more than 240 years. 

But if attempts to steal this Election through bogus ballots, and ballot harvesting, and ballot stuffing are permitted to continue, unabated, I'm of the opinion that the 74,000,000 folks who voted for The Donald will not accept the results.  Never.  And it won't be very long before the Patriots who have been waiting in the wings decide to band together and take to the streets.  For the very first time since 1775.  And when that happens, to the twenty-something White kids who are trying to escape boredom by destroying stuff, you'd best go on home to your momma's  basement.  Go now.  It's gonna' get reeel,  reeeeel soon...

*    A great friend, Geoff West, helped me through my own personal angst and agony back then by suggesting I start a blog.  Thanks Geoff!  You, fellow Pilgrims, are witnessing the results of that suggestion...

**   We adhere to that old admonition, "You don't sh*t where you eat."

You've Really Stepped in it Now!

If things proceed as now seems likely, Donald J. Trump will soon be shown the door.  And those who sent him packing will soon be subjected to his unmitigated wrath.  Whoa boy!  Gird your loins!  It's time for battle!

I mean, you had him right where you wanted him; tightly contained within the White House, and that Southern White House of his, and the Plane and the Helicopter.  Contained.  Cheap price to pay, I'd say...  

And he couldn't do too much damage, either.  Oh, a few executive orders here and there, and a few political rallies here and there, but that's about all.  As we all know, with San Fran Nan Pelosi in charge of the House, no meaningful legislation could be passed.  So The Donald was all boxed in.  Divided gummint.  The People seem to like that.  

But then just over half of you it appears decided to vote against your common interests and elect a scrawny old coot whose elevator doesn't go to the top floor.  I know, I know, the other guy's Orange Man Bad.  People hate him.  Because, ummm, they've been told to do so.  By their masters on Google.  And Yahoo.  And Twitter.  And Facebook.  And maybe the Huffpo.  And if they say it, it just musssst be so...  

But now the Trumpster can flit around unimpeded on his $100 Million Dollar jet, living in his enormous mansion, gathering up donations like a Hoover vacuum cleaner, giving speeches to adoring crowds, and prepping for his run in 2024.  Or a chosen surrogate's run.  Since he more or less owns the GOP, his choice.  You turned him loose so he could do that.  Whereas he had a job to do before, his only job now will be to cause you grief and to prep for his reelection.  Picture it.  

The so-called "MainStreamMedia" launched a full frontal attack against him 5 years ago and it has yet to subside.  Turns out "Orange Man Bad" all day and all night was a good programming scam.  Just demonize Trump as a lecher and a traitor and a fool and a dumbass and ratings among the unenlightened and uninitiated will soar!  And they did!  I mean, why actually commit the act of journalism and actually look for stories to report when you can just pass along crap to your room temperature-I.Q. viewers?  But the MSM folks really played a huge part in smearing Trump, as did the pollsters, most of which are owned by those same MSM lords and masters!  

And they, plus their good buds in Silicon Valley, and the Entertainment Industry, and colleges and universities everywhere, and the majority of the House of Representatives, and the Democrat National Committee, and it seems the FBI, the CIA, the NSA, the DNI and the National Park Service have finally scored a win!  Barely!  

But by doing so you've sprung Him from his gilded cage.  Just like the final scenes in Jurassic Park, where some dufus leaves the latch to a gate open and a Velociraptor is unleashed (unleashed!  Get It?  Knew you would...), you've turned The Donald loose.  Loose to accept an already-offered talk and news show on NEWSMAX.  Loose to form a new cable and digital TV news and radio empire to rival Fox and CNN put together.  Loose to start, or buy and grow, a Twitter-like competitor.  Which would launch on Day One with 74 Million prospective viewers, or just about double all the other guys, put together.  And via a public offering Trump could swap shares in this new venture for ownership of NEWSMAX and OANN and Parler and Mewe anything else he fancies, further growing his empire and padding his potential viewership, all without forcing him to reach in his fat wallet even one time.  They will have turned him loose.  

Loose to start a new political action committee and raise $Billions of Dollars with which to influence the 2022 election.  And then the 2024 election.  With him in it, perhaps.  He would be 78, of course, JUST ABOUT THE SAME AGE AS BIDEN IS NOW, so no complaints about his age.  And he's a spry old geezer.  He's like the Energizer Bunny, which the DNC and the Biden Administration will come to loath with all their granite hearts.  Bet on it.  He'll be a ball and chain around their ankles for the next four years.  He'll be like a doberman nipping at their Gucci-clad loafers.  Just like they've been doing to him for the past four.  Turn about is fair play, right?  

You've demonized Trump in the worst way.  You've accused him of being responsible for fires, for floods, for hurricanes, and tornadoes, and cyclones, and the "poor" economy, and rampant, systemic racism, and treason, and climate change, and now the pandemic.  Even Slow Joe accused him of being personally responsible for every single one of those 230,000 deaths.  Yeah, right...

But whaddaya gonna' do now?  Who ya' gonna' blame now?  Huh, punk?  Who ya' gonna' blame when the virus isn't contained, or the economy tanks, or somebody attacks us, or "racism" isn't cured, or the climate isn't changed...back, or nobody is paying back those student loans, or millions of new, once-illegal aliens are living in your backyard?  Won't be Trump.  He'll be living in his Palm Beach mansion, with his supermodel wife, sitting on the throne of RNC power, without any responsibility...lemme' repeat that...without any responsibility, or oversight, at all, eating cheeseburgers and fries and drinking milkshakes without the N. Y. Slimes taking his portly picture.

So you've unleashed the modern-day Godzilla, who will stomp all over your parade.  You just watch.  It will be better than anything on Netflix...

"The Pursuit...

I'd like to have you take a look back with me in recalling what it actually means to be an American.*  

In the final analysis, it came down to you, fellow Americans, to vote - individually - to either continue pursuing the American Dream, or trade it in for the potential of even greater promised rewards.  Sort of like the modern equivalent of "a bird in the hand."   You had to decide whether you liked where you were and would like to continue down that same pathway, or take a hard Left turn into the netherworld of socialism.  Your Country, your choice... 

     "...We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness..."

                                                                        The Declaration of Independence, 1776

I remember a time in the not-too-distant past when folks were excited to have the chance to get a good job and start a family and work hard and get ahead and save, hoping doing so might fund an enjoyable retirement, like the capitalistic system we enjoy here in America makes possible.  Like it's made possible since 1776... 

And the Declaration emblazoned above provides the framework under which such a life can be lived.  All it requires is that we reach out and grab at that Golden Ring as the merry-go-round twirls... 

But it seems that far too many of our folks now want everything right now, and for free!  And the results of the Election just held seems to prove it.  They seem to want that "happiness" thing without having to first work for it.  The question seems to be, how many of those "gimme" folks are there out there, and why do they hold that opinion?  Why do we have such a significant portion of our society that seemingly embraces socialism?  With both hands?  And how do we capitalists work to disabuse them of that toxic, and potentially America-killing notion? 

Lemme' ask again: why does it seem that an alarming portion of our young twenty-somethings just hate the capitalistic system which has brought their Nation freedom and prosperity?  Or is it that they have a monumental butthurt that they have $100 Grand in student loans they took out to pay for that degree in Existential Phenomenalism (with a minor in Medieval Lesbian Poetry), and are working at one of those "Would you like fries with that?" jobs, while still living in their mommy and daddy's basements?

I'd be pissed as well!  

I dunno' about you, but I'm ashamed of those who wish to free-ride off the sweat of their fellow citizens.  They are leaches!  They are to be ridiculed.  They are failures.  And so are their parents.  And especially their teachers.  ESPECIALLY their teachers!  And I say that as a guy with three teacher-daughters (hopefully none of whom are beset with this ailment).  How else an entire generation learn to hate America and the brilliant and motivated and dedicated Patriots who built it?  And the System that made it possible for those teachers to gain tenure so they can spout Marxist philosophy all day and night to their captive students.  What kind of Orwellian bullsh*t is this?

You have a choice; you can work toward achieving success, within our capitalistic system, or you can watch the parade go by.  Without you in it.

Our Founding Fathers intended via their "...pursuit of happiness" that their citizens would actually pursue happiness.  Not wait to be given stuff they haven't yet earned, which was taken from those who actually worked for it.  Can you imagine our "Westward Ho!" pioneers waiting patiently by the side of the trail back in the 1850's for something good to happen?  

What prompted this particular rant?  I just watched some video of the latest "Biden voter" riot, this one in Philadelphia.  A department store had just been broken into and scores were relieving it of its wares.  A couple of guys were trying to figure out how to get a new clothes dryer they'd just stolen into the trunk of a Honda.  A clothes dryer.  The trunk of a Honda.  Ummmm, who taught those guys again?  

I close this little rant with a quote from Sir Winston Churchill:

"Trying to make one man rich by making another man poor is like standing in a bucket and trying to pull yourself up by the handles..." 

*  This is an opinion piece.  That means that this is the opinion of the author, alone.  By his lonesome.  Nobody else involved.  Just moi.  Sitting around dreaming up stuff to write.  And the reader may not agree with the author.  That's okay.  Stuff like that happens.  No need to burn down an appliance store.  Opinions matter.  Just like Blue Lives.  And all the other colors...

"Good and Hard"

Noted author and philosopher H. L. Menken once famously said:

"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."

Well, the "common people" supposedly just voted, against their own common interests, some would say, and will now get what they wanted. 

Just how "good" and how "hard" their "democracy" delivers remains to be seen.

Most news channels have now proclaimed Biden/Harris POTUS and POTUS-lite, while the votes are still be counted, I might add.  Through clenched teeth...  That of course makes no sense except to those who wish this whole thing to be over and Big Bad Orange Man to be escorted out of the White House.  Right now.  Preferably in chains.  I seem to recall that Al Gore was lauded by that same so-called, but now completely exposed "MainStreamMedia," for continuing his fight against Bush 43 for an excruciating 39 days back in 2000.  But not Trump, and not now.  

And funny again, they didn't want to stop the vote counting in Georgia when Stacy Abrams was running for Governor, now did they?  And she has still yet to concede!  Sort of selective counting, wouldn't you say?  

And the "MSM" and the college and university professors and the entire entertainment industry and Wall Street hedge fund managers and "Black Lives Matters" and "Antifa" and union bosses and the Democrat National Committee and more than half of the House of Representatives and "Progressives" and socialists and Marxists and communists and the LGBTQMZBWX crowd and Twitter and Facebook and Instagram and Google and, and almost every single pollster in America, called for Trump's impeachment on his Inauguration Day (N. Y. Times), and kept up the hounding and harping and back-biting for five. full. years.

Up to and include actually impeaching him for a phone call to Ukraine, while concurrently bitching at him for not doing enough to fight the Chinese Coronavirus.

Funny, isn't it; people couldn't come out to vote, but they could come out to celebrate.  I guess the pandemic has been declared officially over...

Operating on the assumption that there are no more important shoes to drop in this bit of social media-sponsored, $Billionaire-fueled, Marxist-managed, America-changing theatrics, I wish to be among the very first to congratulate Kamala Harris as our 47th President of these here United States.  Oh, she hasn't yet been anointed with that little nicety, but trust me, it won't be long.  Unless I miss my finely-tuned guess, Mr. Biden will be shown the door via 25th Amendment action due to his "medical emergency."  What "medical emergency" you might ask?  Really?  

You haven't been paying attention...

Biden is an empty shell.  He's an avatar with an aversion to the truth into which the goals and objectives of socialists and Marxists and greedy power-mad politicians have been poured, and are spewing out upon their command.  Like Jerry Mahoney to the social media's Paul Winchell (Google it, if you don't know.)  While he was sequestered in his basement in Maryland, for almost all of the campaign, his surrogates conjured up the unsolicited "mail-in ballot" scam.  How do you win a Presidential election against a man with the single best record of one-term accomplishments in American history by putting forth a scrawny old politician with early onset cognition issues who's lost his fastball?  If he ever had one, that is?  You flood the zone with tens of millions of unsolicited ballots.  And then make post-Election Day counting of them legal.  And then make "ballot harvesting" of them also legal.  And you do it right in front of God and everybody!  With the complicit MSMedia's blessing!  What could possibly go wrong?

We're watching it all unfold... 

(Can Melania get her magazine covers back now?)

Vacation Planning...

Hey there, boys and girls!  One of these days this dratted Wuhan Killer Chinese Coronavirus will be in the rear view mirror and it will be time to hit the vacation trail!  You know, throw the kids in the Family Truckster and head out for parts unknown.  

However, a bunch of the States of the United States have just voted to give us the finger.  Yes, old friends, several of our states have come clean; they've finally fessed up about their true feelings about Conservatives and those who vote that way.  And it might be helpful to those planning a vacay to know who their friends are.  I mean, you don't want to give your hard-earned discretionary vacation dollars to those who hate and revile you, and want you removed from the human race, right?  

These folks have told us, to our face, that they deem us deplorable.  They consider us racist.  And sexist.  And homophobic.  And misogynistic.  And haters of all things good and wonderful.  They think we're all beer-swilling, pickup-driving, flag-waving, inbred toothless rubes who want everyone but Whites eradicated.  They actually believe this.  They've been fed this stuff by the so-called "MainStreamMedia," the entertainment industry, college and university educators and the "Big Tech" social media giants which have successfully censored our news for months.  And they believe it enough to vote that way. 

Given a choice, I'm thinking, you wouldn't intentionally visit Oregon or Washington, would you?  Even after undergoing more than 4 months of rioting and looting and burning, Oregon and Washington each voted 61% for the Democrats who permitted it to happen.  They must all be masochistic to vote for more of the chaos they've been living through.  Or just plain stupid.  

And would you go to Disneyland, deep in the heart of the Socialist Republic of California, which voted two-out-of-three (Dem - 66%) for the Democrats, when you could go East to Disneyworld, in good ol' Florida, where way over half (Rep - 57%) voted for Republicans?  I think not.

And Virginia?  Why would you go to VA, which voted 64% for Democrats, when you could go to West Virginia, where 3-out-of-4 (Dem - 71%) are your friends?  

You wouldn't want to visit New York (Dem - 61%), or Illinois (Dem - 71%), or Massassassassachusetts (Dem - 69%) if you had the choice, would you?  Especially when you could visit beautiful South Dakota (Rep - 63%), or Tennessee (Rep - 61%), or Utah (Rep - 60%), right?  You just know that these states would welcome you with open arms and treat you right, right?

And BTW, South Dakota has a cute Governor, so there's that.

And Alaska (Rep - 61%) and Arkansas (Rep - 64%) and South Carolina (Rep - 60%), and Missouri (my home state!) (Rep - 57%) are all open for business and await your arrival.  Why would you go to Hawaii when two-out-of three of their residents (Dem - 69%) hates your guts, would you?  How would you know which one is your friend?  And Washington, D.C?  Ummmmm, no.  Get this:  95% of those in our Nation's Capital voted for the Democrats.  How'd you like to work in a city where 19 out of 20 of the folks you bump into every day are dedicated to your demise?  

One thing for sure, we Conservatives know who our friends are.  And we are not likely to give our greenbacks to folks who hate the ground upon which we walk.  So, fellow Pilgrims, when this pandemic thingie has run its course, which I'm guessing will be about two days after the Election is certified for the Democrats, and it's perhaps time to consider another family vacation, my suggestion is we spend our dollars where they think like we do.  Who knows?  If we can't beat them at the Ballot Box, maybe we can run them all out of business...

The Fear of Loss...

                                  Part Two:

A couple of days ago I opined as to what our Great Landscape might look like were Biden/Harris to emerge victorious today, Election Day, 2020.  Here's Part Two of that particular bit of citizen journalism...

There's an old saying where I come from.  And it's one that should be seriously considered as we head to the polls...

                         "The Fear of Loss

                   is a Far Greater Motivator

              Than the Anticipation of Gain..."

What that means, in ordinary words, is that we Americans are historically unlikely to trade hard-won gains at the Ballot Box for the promise of even greater rewards.  Or, put another way, "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."  Or, even simpler, if the question were asked, "Are you better off today than you were four years ago,"  a question then-Prez Ronnie Reagan famously asked awhile back, 56% in a recent CBS-Marist poll answered with a resounding "YES!"   And being better off, are they more or less likely to vote against their common interests and vote for Joe Biden and his admittedly "most Progressive candidate ever" promise?  

The pollsters give Biden a 90% chance of being elected today.  90%!  Or rather, whenever the lawyers for both sides give up and go home (more than 10,000 of them have already been hired by the DNC!  Don't know, but suspect it's the same for the RNC.).  Which is most likely several weeks after November 3rd comes and goes.  But whenever it is, and no matter what happens after they count all the "magically appearing" ballots the harvesters will conjure up, are the voters likely to vote for pie-in-the-sky promises?  Promises from a guy who spent 47 years in Washington, D. C. and just needs "four more" in order to finally get it done?  

I'm thinking Trump voters are smart enough to vote their own interests.  And these are just some of the "interests" they'll be voting to protect: 

     -  Trump voters don't want their cities burned to the ground, and their stores looted, and their citizens harassed, and their cops shot.  It seems that Democrats do.  

     -  Trump voters don't want to drive high-priced little electric cars.  And they don't want our oil and gas industries destroyed by a bunch of "sky is falling" global warming alarmists.  Yet, Democrats do.

     -  Trump voters prefer a health care plan that doesn't threaten them with fines if they don't buy it.  And one that offers them a service they can actually afford to use, as opposed to the "Affordable Care Act," which most assuredly isn't.  Democrats are just fine with Obamacare, especially the ones who haven't used it, and don't intend to use it.

     -  Trump voters believe in the Constitution and all of its various parts and pieces.  And those "parts and pieces" include the Right to free speech and the Right to practice their religion and the Right to own and keep and bear arms.  And they will continue to look unfavorably on anyone who tries to take these Rights away.  And that would include Biden and Harris.

     -  Trump voters do not believe that America is "systemically racist," and never have.  And they will vote against anyone who tries to tell them it is.  And that's why they'll be voting against Biden/Harris.

     -   Trump voters believe that Black lives matter, and so do White lives, and Brown lives, and Red lives, and Yellow lives.  All lives, in fact.  And they will express that belief at the polling booth.  "BLM" and "Antifa," who believe than only Black lives matter, have endorsed Biden/Harris.  Enough said...

     -  Trump voters don't care that some others have more than they do.  And they're not terribly interested in any effort to "redistribute" their wealth.  All they want is the opportunity to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps and participate in the American Dream.  The Democrats will not be happy unless or until the "rich" pay their "fair share," no matter how unfair that share proves to be...

     -  Trump voters believe that abortion should be, as Billy Jeff "Blue Dress" Clinton once said, "Safe, legal, and rare."  Not, as current Democrat POTUS candidates believe, just fine up to - and maybe a bit after - the moment of birth.  

     -  Trump voters don't want our Supreme Court "packed" with a few new Democrats just to "balance things out," as Kamala Harris has offered.  They're just fine with 9, a number that has served us well for more than 150 years.

     -  Trump voters aren't in favor of having Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia and Tonga, or any other Pacific Island, made into brand new states.  And they don't want the six new senators which such a move would bring, or the dozens of new Congressmen/women/others, which would guarantee a Democrat majority in Congress, forever.

     -  Trump voters, having strived to get 400 miles of new Border Wall built over the past 4 years, don't want it torn down.  Biden/Harris have promised to tear it down, and welcome millions and millions of new illegal aliens as citizens.  Trump voters are vehemently against such actions.

     -  Trump voters aren't happy about Big Tech and the obvious Silicon Valley censorship of conservative thought and media.  And they'll vote to change it.  And Big Tech knows it.  That's why they're working overtime to defeat Trump.  A word to the wise...

     -  Trump voters believe that most all of the Washington, D.C. intelligence apparatus needs to be overhauled and replaced with unbiased professionals dedicated to doing their jobs.  The CIA, the FBI, the NSA and the DNI have been aligned against Trump since he was inaugurated.  Time to fix that glaring defect...  

     -  Trump voters want Government out of their wallets, out of their businesses, out of their bedrooms, out of their vehicles, and, to the maximum extent possible, out of their lives.  Their opponents view Big Government as The Answer to all questions, asked or not.  Which should be all you need to know.  

     -  And finally, Trump voters crave optimism.  They abhor pessimism.  Trump exudes optimism.  Biden/Harris are promising a "dark winter!"  A calamity!  A horrible, terrible end-of-life-as-we-know it scenario if Trump wins!  That's enough, perhaps, to insure his victory.

And on my way out the Digital Door, let me restate the statistic highlighted above; 

                                    56%!  

56% is over half.  And over half...wins the Election.  Trump voters fear the loss of their freedoms.  And they will fight to retain them.  And that fight starts...and hopefully ends...at the Ballot Box.  And if "Black Lives Matter," or "Antifa," or anybody else has a problem with that, just remember: we're the ones with all the guns...

What the Future Might Hold...

       The Chuckmeister's Election Special:

                               The First of Two Parts:*

I got to thinking the other day, as I often do (thinking doesn't burn calories!), of what the hours and days and weeks might look like after the upcoming General Election comes and goes, for us, the exhausted American people.  And these are my thoughts...

I dunno' about you, but I'm more than ready for this whole thing to be over.  And if we're to believe the polls, all of them, then Biden/Harris is a shoo-in to win, and The Donald will be shown the door come November 4th.  It seems their strategy was to just wear us all out.  The Democrats are trying their best to make so much noise and cause such a ruckus, aided by those "Biden voters" the "Antifa" and "Black Lives Matters" and "Proud Boys" boys, trying to burn down some of our biggest cities, that we'll vote Trump out of office just to regain a modicum of peace and quiet.

They think we'll sell our collective souls for a little of that "peace and quiet" elixir.  Will we?  

And Republicans are trying their best to save America from a hostile takeover by a Marxist theology.  A worthy quest, to be sure.  Those wishing to "conserve" our way of life (that's why they're called Conservatives, doncha' know), and those wishing to "progress" beyond freedom and toward "it takes a village," henceforth called "Progressives."  There will be a lot of fingernail biting between now and then.  But once "then" comes and goes, and we're viewing it through our rear view mirrors, I have some predictions.  And they're based upon the supposition that Joe Biden just might win come November 3rd.  Yes, Trump voters, it just might happen.  And here are some of my thoughts should such an event occur.  Read them with trepidation:

     -  After the champagne has flowed and the hangovers cured, the Democrats will get down to the business of deconstructing America.  They will first vote out the filibuster and vote to pack the Supreme Court.  They'll put into motion the steps  necessary to get rid of the Electoral College.  No more will an interloper like Trump be permitted to swoop in and steal the Presidency from their worthy Democrat grasp.  They'll put as many hard-core Progressive justices on the Supreme Court as it takes to assume total and complete legislative control of all its decision-making.  The Democrats will have thus turned the Supreme Court into a new, just slightly smaller, legislative body; one with fewer members, but one guaranteed to vote with the Liberal majority every. single. time.

     -  It will mark the end of the Republican Party.  Trump successfully took complete control of it in the years since his 2016 election, and thus his defeat at the ballot box will mean the death of the Republican platform.  No Trump, no Party.  And following the efforts of Democrats to delegitimize Republicanism on every level, aided by our Big Tech oligarchy in Silicon Valley, and the entire entertainment establishment, and our once-legitimate "Corrupt Legacy Media," its support will dwindle over the coming years and America will become a one-party state.  Just look at California if you'd like a peek at what America might look like...

     -  The Democrats will make states out of American Samoa and Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia.  This will give the Democrats six new senators, thus taking majority control of this august old body.  With the House of Representatives in the control of the Democrats, this will now give them the United States Senate as well.  And with the Presidency they can - and will - approve any legislation they might desire, no matter how stupid or inane.  Just look at Taxifornia if you'd like an idea as just how this might look...  

     -  Every single gun will be purchased off the shelves at every single gun store, and every single box of ammunition of every single caliber, within days of the dust settling on this upcoming election.  Knowing that Biden/Harris have promised to come for our firearms (she's on record as giving the Congress 100 days to repeal it, or she'll issue an (unconstitutional) Executive Order, and just read his website if you didn't know Joe wants to confiscate our firearms!), we will do what proves necessary to make sure that job is made as difficult as possible.  And since the Federal Government does not know who owns what firearm (our current NICS System background check system does not call for a permanent register of guns purchased), Biden and his sycophants won't know who's got those dratted "assault weapons" he's so "triggered" by.  Even so, Biden/Harris will do their best to find them.  They will be unsuccessful.  We will make sure of it.

     -  You think there were militias before?  Whoa, Nellie!  There will be militias form all across the Fruited Plain and prepare for the upcoming hostilities.  What hostilities, you might ask?  The hostilities which are sure to break out between the policing forces soon-to-be controlled by the Leftist authorities, and the resistance, made up of ordinary citizens, like you and me, which is sure to build against it.  Will it break out?  Will there be a Civil War, Part Deux?  Too soon to know.  But I'm betting a qualified "yes." 

     -   Big Blue cities will continue their quest to defund their police forces, and even eliminate them entirely in certain far-Left precincts (NYC has already defunded its cops by $1.5 Billion, or one-sixth of the total budget, and L.A. has cut its police budget by $150 Million).  This will of course be met with increased crime, which may well be answered by increased citizen response.  Those cities, like Minneapolis and Milwaukee and Chicago, which choose to send along a social worker to help the cops talk down a 230 pound drunken crack addict who's just beat the crap out of his 110 pound girlfriend, may regret such a decision...

     -  One of the really good things about November 4th, the "Day After," is that the mass hysteria over the Chinese Killer Coronavirus will be at an end.  As if by magic, the scourge of the Killer Virus will have faded from the pages of your local news source and never be mentioned again.  No more worries about getting infected if you go outside, and then dropping like a rock, as the Corrupt State Media has hippppmotizzzed America into believing.  Vote yourself into socialism and viruses magically go away...      

     - The National Basketball Association will move its headquarters to Beijing, China.  Having sold its soul to China some years back (more than half its current revenue, some $500 Million, comes from China!), this move will further cement the new and open friendship between the ignorant, foolhardy 7 foot jocks who dunk basketballs and the Chinese Communist Party.  I predict LeBron James will be elected its Vice Premier...

     -  Oh yeah, and another good thing is that you'll never hear of Russia again.  They will cease to be an evil country and go back to just being another country.  Since there's no further reason to falsely sully the name of a sovereign country, the Democrats will signal their Media Arm to drop all further mentions of Russia.  Or Ukraine, for that matter.  

     -  N.Y. Dem. Senator Fidel Schiff will trigger an indictment against Donald J. Trump.  He'll have a warrant issued for his arrest for who knows what and have to flee the country, most likely to Scotland.  His sons and daughters and aunts and uncles and cousins out through 4th will be arrested, tried and found guilty of, ummm, being associated with Trump, maybe.  It will be a purge unseen since King Charles VI eradicated the Knights Templars from France on Friday, the 13th, 1307.  Most likely they will be offered an opportunity to submit to attendance at a reeducation camp for an undetermined period to get their "mind's right" in lieu of a stiff prison sentence.  

Are you picking up what I'm putting down? 

     -  Plan on getting hungry after Election Day?  If so, we'll likely be left with only about 50% of our previous restaurants.  The others will be empty shells in strip malls across America.  And their owners will be unemployed and a burden to the remaining taxpayers.  And the strip mall owners will go bankrupt as well, since nobody will be paying their mortgages.  And all of this could have been avoided had Pelosi not held out for her $3.3 Trillion Dollar "HEROES" legislative package.  Which, if you didn't know, was to have paid for a $1 Trillion Dollar bail-out of the debt racked up by Democrat-run cities over the past few decades.  To be paid for by the rest of us who didn't spend like drunken sailors (with apologies to drunken sailors).  None of which, BTW, has anything to do with combating the Chinese Killer Coronavirus.  But that didn't stop them.  They didn't care.  They won't care.  All they saw was a "crisis," as a "crisis" should not go to waste...  

     -  Republicans will convert their investments into cash and bonds and hard assets, thus protecting them from the promised efforts by the new socialist Biden/Harris Administration to come for them via increased and onerous taxation.  Just like it was under Jimmuh Carter, new and innovative tax dodges will be created to hide income from these vultures.  Their efforts to tax their way to our prosperity will result in a major recession, and perhaps a full-bore depression.  And they'll do so in spite of the fact that such socialistic endeavors have never worked in the entire history of mankind (see Venezuela for the most recent example).  As has been noted, doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.

     -  And perhaps the very best that could happen for the "glass is half-full" folks out there, is that they'll never hear the term "Fake News" again.  No, they definitely will not.  The reason is that the upcoming election will bring an eradication of all right-leaning news sources, meaning that all news flowing to the masses thereafter...will be absolute "truth."  And we know that's true because there will be no one or no thing to refute it.  All "news" after November 3rd will be "Corrupt State Media" news.  Just the Pablum they'll feed you.  No more wrangling back and forth over every issue.  No more "us vs. them."  All of a sudden life will be boring.  And controlled by rabid socialists...

     -  And last, but far from least, within a few weeks of Biden/Harris having been sworn in, Mr. Biden will somehow develop a "medical" problem preventing him from performing his duties, thus necessitating the use of the 25th Amendment.  That little Constitutional measure exists to forcibly remove a President who is judged no longer capable of fulfilling his Constitutional duties.  Biden will then be driven home to his oceanfront Maryland compound to enjoy his ill-gotten wealth, and Kamala Harris will become our 47th President.  And thus, the very most Liberal candidate in all of American history will have been "installed" into the White House without the votes of, or the desire of, the American people.  

Do you see how this could happen?  As the guy once said, "Be afraid.  Be very afraid..."  

Will these predictions come true?  I don't know.  I sure as Hell hope not.  Especially for my kids, and their kids.  But your vote on Election Day might be the one to help keep it from happening... 

Oh yeah, and BTW, if the Democrats' efforts to fully subsume and remanufacture America are unsuccessful, it will still be Trump's fault...
