The End of an Error.

The Election is over.  The TV commercials have stopped.  And while I'm at it, those infernal Humana ads stop today as well.  Causing the volume on your TV set to go up by 20db.  Early Christmas presents, both.

Oh yeah, the Democrats invested $2,146,000,000 (that's with a "B") toward getting Harris elected.  I'm glad they're not my investment adviser.  The Dems had $146 Million on hand as of October 16th.  Yet, they blew through that $Two Billion and the $146 Million and still wound up owning another $20,000,000.  They're trying to raise enough donations from their Hollywood pals to retire that debt.  You know, the ones who endorsed her.  Good luck.  I think the celebrities have left the building...

Trump raised and spent $336,000,000 (with an "M") in the same period.  Which means Democrats had Seven Times More Money than Trump, and yet still Lost in a Wipeout!  The candidate, maybe?  And the policies?  Or lack thereof?

I think this Election also spells the end of celebrity endorsements.  At least it should.  If Taylor Swift, the Richest Celebrity on Earth, cannot sway an election with her endorsement, who can? *  It appears nobody.  It appears the Democrats may have just learned that.  Or maybe not.  We'll see if JLo or Beyonce or The Boss or Whomever is trotted out to cover the inequities of their next candidate.  

(BTW, I'm betting against their having learned their lesson.  I'm pretty sure they think they just needed that one more actor or singer or dancer to provide a ringing endorsment and everything would have worked as planned...)

The only thing that would have made Tuesday better for me is if Donald J. Trump had "identified" as a woman and run for POTUS as a woman.  So that the miscreants on MSNBC and CNN wouldn't have been able to say that the only reason he won was because of words like "misogynist" and "racist." 

Just think if The Donald had put on a tutu, as the Supreme Troll to all Democrats everywhere, those Upper East Side NYC Liberals and Malibu "Progressives" wouldn't have been able to play the gender identity card.  It would simply have come down to policies.  And capability.  And experience.  

I learned by 9:00 p.m. on Tuesday that Trump looked likely to eke out a victory.  A major surprise after being told it would take until Thursday or Friday to get the news.  And then by 11:00 we knew it was all over.  Trump had kicked their arses.  He'd taken Wisconsin, and then Pennsylvania.  Leaving Harris no pathway to victory.  Trump declared that victory.  Harris went to bed, leaving her supporters at the "victory party" with instructions to see themselves out.  Nice.

Tuesday was a day which will live in infamy.  Because the Democrat candidate and her "Corporate Media" handmaidens were convinced they'd emerge victorious.  And be one step closer to transforming America into the Socialist Paradise they've long desired.  Where they're the Big Dogs and you're the plebes.  The Worker Bees.  They snap their fingers, you hop to it.    

Yet, Big Orange whupped their arses.  Bigly!  He's won more than 300 Electoral College votes, and more than a 5% point advantage in the Popular Vote.  Winning that popular vote for the first time in more than a generation.  Those on the Left now know why he did rallies in NY, and NM, and VA.  He did so to run up the popular vote.  So that his victory would be seen as a mandate when he takes charge on 1/20/25.

If you'd been reading this humble blog, you'd know this upheaval was getting ready to heave.  That Trump had struck a nerve with those who'd been run over by Big Gubmint.  Those who'd been rude screwed, tripple-tatooed, rammed by the rusty rod of reality and f**ked by the fickle finger of fate.  Hispanics, Blacks, Asians, the young, the really old, women, the poor, Whites and the rich.  All of them joined the Trump Team.  

Plus add in the autoworkers and members of three other unions, contributing more than 250,000 of Trump's votes.  Unheard of. 

O'Biden should not have run in 2020.  He was feeble even then.  Recognizably so.  And in fact, he'd guaranteed his backers that he'd only be a one-term Prez.  He would just be the "bridge" to the next leader.  Yet, due to ego, I'm sure, he did.  And he messed up America terribly.  Their "Inflation Reduction Act" caused rampant inflation.  And that inflation robbed us of 20% of our savings, inflated overall costs 24%, drove up the cost of housing by 40%, car insurance by 50%, home insurance by 34%, energy by 29%, and transportation by 30%.  He did that.  

They did that.  

And once that fateful debate showed O'Biden to be non compos mentis, the Democrats pulled a coup on his a*s.  Showed him the door, they did.  The man who'd earned more than 14,000,000 primary votes.  Handing the campaign to a woman who'd never earned a single primary vote.  In any state.  A woman who dropped out of the Presidential campaign the day before the 2020 Iowa Caucuses.  She would not have been the V.P. candidate with O'Biden except for famously Black NC Congressman Clyborn.  O'Biden was fading.  Clyborn offered his help, but only if O'Biden would select "a Black woman" as his V.P.  And the only Black woman acceptable to him was Kamala Harris.  And the rest, as they say, is history.

I've told my friends and family that had this Election gone the other way, it could have spelled doom for the American Dream.  12 of the past 16 years have been under the management of the Democrats.  As Obama said following his election in 2008, "America is the greatest Country on Earth.  Join with me now as we begin to change it!"  

This Election stopped that change.  It sent the Obamas and the Clooneys and the Harrises and, finally, the Bidens to the showers.  Permanently.  You may never see any of them again.  Thankfully.  In the eternal battle between the "Makers" and the "Takers," the "Makers" won this round.  And if the Republicans do what they promised to do, they may well start a Dynasty.  Of small, responsive Government, reduced spending, a strong military, restored basic freedoms, a vibrant energy policy and a secure Border.  And if they do, the Democrat Party will shrink into nonexistence.  

Thank God we won't have to find out if I was right.  Now we can simply try and hold Trump to his promise:  "To Make America Great Again!"

*  Oh yeah, Swift's endorsement didn't stop me from being a Kansas City Chief's fan, either.  Even though she and Kelce are cohabiting.  He will leave someday, and take her with him.  But the Chiefs will still be here, and still be my Team.
