In 2016 a woman won the popular vote over a man in the presidential election.

The numbers on Tuesday 8 Nov 2016:

Dummkopf Trumpf (male): 62,984,828 (46.1%)

Hillary Clinton (female): 65,853,514 (48.2%)

Hillary Clinton was cheated of her victory by the anachronistic Electoral College system which was designed to keep the status quo in power, as well as Russian interference and James Comey's unwise comments about her personal OPSEC procedures.

Michelle Obama: "Don't ask about me running for Prez because you (we) the Electoral College system isn't ready to have a woman President."

BTW: Democrats historically do better at national elections during peacetime.

Woodrow Wilson (1916) and FDR (1940) won their elections before entering the global conflagrations raging around them. After Woodrow Wilson won, he could decide how to steer the country. When he was advised that a British loss would cost American banks billions of dollars because of loans to their banks that the Kaiser would never honor being repaid, Wilson started tilting isolationist America toward the Allies for the sake of those mega-banks and the US economy

In 1944, more Servicemen identified as Democrats than Republicans and the US kept the course with FDR against fascism.

Look at all the presidential elections from 1948 to 2024.

LBJ knew VPOTUS Hubert Humphrey was going to lose weeks before Tuesday 5 Nov 1968 because of the Vietnam War (Source: Phone transcripts released from archives).

LBJ himself didn't want to run again, which he announced on national TV on 31 March 1968, two months after this atrocity was perpetrated on 1 Feb 1968 and the Pulitzer Prize-winning photo went viral:

"Argh! Stupid Democrats want clean and water for their children! Blargh! Who cares about the environment? Gargh! Stupid!"

One wonders how much Islamophobia and Arab-hatred AIPAC can generate to make Americans so insensitive to the deaths of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank or Iraqis, Somalis, and Iranians.

Typo corrected.

American wrestlers can't wait to compete against Iranian champions. Iranian cuisine is exquisite. Persia invented chess and "zig-zag" originated from them. Persian syncopations enhanced music all over the Middle East. Iranian powerlifters are amongst the top five in the world alongside the US, Russia, Armenia, Turkiye.

And there's always this:

America lost when the DNC chose Hillary over Bernie.

AIPAC does a good job of it; we have to give them credit for their nefarious effectiveness.

Reading Virginia Roberts Giuffre's Nobody's Girl was stomach-wrenching and the Epstein files are intergalactically more horrendous.

USAG Pam Bondi and Dummkopf Trumpf look at each other in the eye during Cabinet meetings or during one-on-one conferences.

"I know, that you know, what I did to those underage girls."

"You know, that I know, what you did to those underage girls."

Only those devoid of a soul can live or work under circumstances like that.

The antiwar movement in the US is as old as the American Revolution.

With progressive candidates on Tuesday 3 Nov 2026, the Democratic Party can recapture the millions of pacifist voters they lost on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024 (6,265,888).

We can oust the Republicans, warmongers, antisemites, fascists, Islamophobes, and status quo dinosaurs this year by enlarging the "Big Tent" once again like we did on Tuesday 3 Nov 2020.

*** Disgusting Republican Blames Minnesota AG Keith Ellison (D) for Executions of Renee Good and Alex Pretti ***

At the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI), a pathetic excuse of a human being, bellowed mindlessly at Minnesota Attorney-General Keith Ellison:

"Two people are dead because you encouraged them to put themselves into harm's way! And now you are exploiting those two martyrs. You ought to feel damn guilty about it. Yeah, sit there and smirk. Smirk. It's sick! It's despicable. You disgust me."

Such phony outrage is Oscar-winning.

Note this miscreant himself used the term "martyr" in his made-for-TV screed.

And DHS, ICE, and the FBI are still not cooperating with the Minnesota BCA homicide investigations of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

*** MAGAts Want Incompetent USAG Pam Bondi Gone; "She Can't Be Trusted" ***

Newsmax TV Tumor Greg Kelly: "I don't think Pam [Bondi] is living up to that responsibility. Lots of theatrics on her part today before the House. That's great. But she was not responsive, evasive. And I think she is not to be trusted and I hope she leaves soon."

*** 2026 Munich Security Conference Report: "Under Destruction" ***

"The world has entered a period of wrecking-ball politics. Sweeping destruction-- rather than careful reforms and policy corrections-- is the order of the day. The most prominent of those who promise to free their country from the existing order's constraints and rebuild a stronger, more prosperous nation is the current nefarious Trumpf regime. As a result, more than 80 years after construction began, the US-led post-1945 international order is now under destruction."

Note that the cover of the report is a caricature of the Republican Party symbol, the elephant.

*** ICE Ruffians Menacing Catholic Clergymen ***

Nothing says bring back the "Know Nothing Party" better than harassing Catholic priests.

I guess rabbis and mullahs are next.

What? Are Republicans using the ACLU to sue ICE?

*** House Republican Supports ICE Presence at Polling Places ***

When the Republicans created DHS 24 years ago, they wove the USCG, TSA, INS, and other benign agencies into the tapestry.

"Hey, Democrats! You can't defund DHS! TSA and the USCG are in there! Gotcha! Hah!"

Sure, America is not a police state.

This Congressman's whiney voice will drive your cat from the sofa.
