"Be proud to be a MAGAT AND NATIONALIST and populist American. Make America proud and make it American in blended culture and ethnicity but beholden to no one."at the time

Wow! Great quote I had forgotten about as did I'm sure the Republicabs who heard him say it and believed him. To them it was his willingness to sacrifice for the common welfsre but to those of us not hypnotized by him it was just another lie.

"Be proud to be a MAGAT AND NATIONALIST and populist American. Make America proud and make it American in blended culture and ethnicity but beholden to no one."

Yes, be proud Nazis, Hitler would be proud of you!

It does seem to me that incumbent Denocrats don't want tp accepy any blame for losing the majority in yhe Senate; I think stronger outcry about thedeaths of thousands of Palestinians and radical Supreme Court decisions such as Citizens United and the overturning of Roe v Wade could have helprd to create more public anger about those decisions. When they voted to overturn Roe how many Senators on thvoted to overturn iy e Judiciary Committee even spoke out about the fact that several now sitting Justices lied when asked about their position about that precedent and then voted to overturn it as if that was their plan all along.

**k! the Democratic Party leaders whose leadership has brought us to this perilous place, perhaps they should resign and quit asking us for money which seems to be wasted in losing elections.It ismportant that Justices write opinions even even when in the minority of the Court and that they argue for yheir opinion publicly and on record in the press.

If he really wants to do that we historical precwwdt "The Maech of Tears." And it should be noted that virtually all of those he intends could prove their Native American status through DNA testing which IMHO should greatly increase the validity of the term"illegal aliens". These people can prove that their heritage proves their ancestors were in this country far longer than any white American and definitely far longer that Trump who probably should be deported to Germany where his forefathers came from which perhaps explains his desire to study Hitler and now govern like him?

I'd just like to know when the fact that Trump refused to sign documents about conflicts of interest and etc was made available and when he refused; was it before the election? American voters should have been informed.

I have heard of "muscle memory" and one day I just drew a blank and couldn't remember the passcode for my iPhone, I tried with no duccess and I wasn't even going to contact Apple for help so I thought about it my right hand has put in that code so many times and I wondered that I wondered if my hand could remember the code without my conscious brain directing it and it worked. A friend of mine had the same problem and I told her to try what I tried and it worked for her too. Not exactly a scientific experiment but worth trying if someone can't remember their passcode.

"Unfortunately, that was not enough because a lot of people failed to see how well the American economy did rebound, especially in comparison to other countries around the world that were all also impacted by the covid pandemic and its aftermath.

I'm pretty sure the New York Times editorialsay what Gal just was not reported or discussed on Fox News or any other Republican biased news media so their virtually captuewd audiences are unaware of most of the pertinent facts about most of the issues thst got Trump elected. Those people don't like to be renindd of that and get quite angry when some of us remind them of the real facts surrounding the issues that convince relativelt bormal peopje support a Fascist like Trump but they can get as mad as they want but that won't sr=top me from trying to infoem them.

"When people are more concerned that a trans girl might play on a softball team than that the climate crisis might profoundly devastate the biosphere and much of life on it, human and otherwise, for the next 10,000 years, the media has failed. When people worry about crihm now when it is low, an economy when it is thriving and immigrants when they do much of the hard work that sustains that economy and commit fewer crimes than the native-born, the media has failed."

Had so many conversations and arguments with Trump supporters; I finally realized that if Fox News disagrees that is the end of the discussion. if I had to actually say who won this election it isn't Donald Trump, it isn't Elon Musk; No, it's Rupert Murdoch, Fox News won and America lost. Fox has been a danger to democracy since Bush v Gore in 2000. When election the the Supreme Court decided that election results can be reversed by a bribed, unethical, corrupt Supreme Court. America is lost. The Supreme Court was the only part of our government that made sure that our nation remained true to the Constitution but the Roberts Court has destroyed the people's belief in the Supreme Court and I doubt it will rver be restored. about Trump didn't destroy our democracy the Supreme Court did with the Citizens United decision ending democracy that couldn't be bought and turned it into an auction with control going to the highest bidder. The Justices of the Supreme Court has sold out to billionaires with mega-yachts and private jets. We have watched as they have rubber stamped the Republican agenda for about 20 years or so and so now we have a convicted felon, coup leader as our President who will again lie on inauguration day and take an oath to respect and defend our Constitution which he has publicly said he hates. On that Inauguration Day I know I won't be watching, the talk about Trump destroying democracy will slowly seep into the brains of his stupid supporters. They are very slow to understand because most of them only get information from Fox News which carefully slants everything to help Republicans. I just whnt to remind prople about Fox News' support for George W. Bush and the Iraq invasion and ask them; How did that work out? Remember the crash of 2007-08? Remember the bumbling fools trying to get their greedy hands on the Iraq oil fields and who then failed because Iraq wouldn't privatize those oil fields. So after spending hundreds of billions of dollars and losing thousands of our soldiers what did America gain? And why do so many Americans not realize Fox News sold that war to America but no one today holds them accountable for that and no one is going to hold them accountable for the election we just had either.

My air fryer is not a spy. I trust my air fryer much more than I trust Republican relatives and ex-friends.

"Maybe he should keep the illegals and deport you leftist scum."

Lot's of us leftist scum are considering self-deportation to civilised countries. Good luck keeping things running when all the educated people have left the hellscape Trump is leading you towards. The election really was a demonstration of how much resentment there is in America of educated, intelligent people and Trump "loves the oorly educated" and they won

I' been considering a refi with cash out and now might be what I've been waiting for.

I notice Effeteliar is more active here now --------------- has won the election but that aniveking coward will be surprised and disappoited when Zelensky and the Ukrainian Army bravely fight on even after the Bitch recieves his oeders from Putin and shames Amrtica and the Bitch. That will piss Putib off so much that te Bitch won't wvwn be allowed to suCK HIS ---- FOR monrths!

"Trump is already planning for beachfront casinos in that part of the world."

Yep!

What different nation this would be today if Donald Trump had yhe decency to have conceded in2020! But he isn't decent and we shall see him prove that over the next four years.

"And many of you low-ed Connies had better be ready to take the low wage jobs left open by deporting 10 million immigrants.

But wait, American workers can hardly wait to be out in the fresh air picking crops. And no more child care problems; bring them to the fields with you, kids love picking vegetables snd they will boost the family income!

But just like J.D. Vance who called Trump "America's Hitler" most, if not all of the Republicans gave up their patriotism in favor of their blind ambition.

"It seems like people were not as interested."

Nothing new; we had isolationists in the 931s too. Those fools realized that with aggressive dicrators like Hitler and Putin isolationism won't protect you from attack but it does give ruthless dictators more time to build their war machines and I don't compare Putin to Hitler lightly Putin is smarter than Hitler, he bought someone he thought would be President and he was right. Sad day in America when our President is ownwd by a foreign dictator but, at the time, no American bank would loan him a dime so he sold to the first person he found who would give him the money he needed.

And he sprnt 50 million taxpayer dollars illegally to run non-stop commercials on TV whivh were just full of lies. Had a flashback to my old jobs; in the 80's we were required to undergo lie detector tests even though my position never touched money or products. I merely created print catalogs and ads. Then the Controller of the compant who required us to take the lie-detector tests was caught stealing thousands of dollars he needed to buy his mistress a condo. Later in my last job we were required to take drug tests for marijuana. The laws against marihuana were no created foe any public safety or healthreasons. They were simply anexcuse lw enforcement could use to arrest anyone thwt wabtws to, especially protesters gainst the Vietnam War. Desantis is a religious conservative ass***e who can't stand it that people don't all obey or respect his religious crap! He, like most other religious conservatives believe in freedom of religion but not freedom from religion. They want everyone to live in fear of the sky fairy; even Putin relies on the Russian Orthodox Church to keep homosexuality and wonen's rights suppressed. Wht do you think Trump likes him so much? They share a belief that citizens should belong to a church and live their lives subservient to religious authority which they believe has selected them to rule over the population.

Sound familiar?

The Know Nothings were a nativist political movement in the United States in the 1850s, officially known as the Native American Party[a] before 1855, and afterwards simply the American Party. Members of the movement were required to say "I know nothing" whenever they were asked about its specifics by outsiders, providing the group with its colloquial name.[2]

Supporters of the Know Nothing movement believed that an alleged "Romanist" conspiracy to subvert civil and religious liberty in the United States was being hatched by Catholics. Therefore, they sought to politically organize native-born Protestants in defense of their traditional religious and political values. The Know Nothing movement is remembered for this theme because Protestants feared that Catholic priests and bishops would control a large bloc of voters. In most places, the ideology and influence of the Know Nothing movement lasted only one or two years before it disintegrated due to weak and inexperienced local leaders, a lack of publicly proclaimed national leaders, and a deep split over the issue of slavery. In parts of the South, the party did not emphasize anti-Catholicism as frequently as it emphasized it in the North and it stressed a neutral position on slavery,[3] but it became the main alternative to the dominant Democratic Party.[2]

The Know Nothings supplemented their xenophobic views with populist appeals. At the state level, the party was, in some cases, progressive in its stances on "issues of labor rights and the need for more government spending"[4] and furnished "support for an expansion of the rights of women, the regulation of industry, and support of measures which were designed to improve the status of working people."[5] It was a forerunner of the temperance movement in the United States.[2]

Apparently millions of Republicans would be fine with him puYou own any tariffs he imposes, the deaths of thousands of Ukrainians he will desert and allow Putin to kill, the destruction of a successful economy...Republicans will own all of this and much more and we, on the other side, will never let you forget it!

It turms out that illrgally using taxpayer dollars to oppose ballot initiatives can be quite successful if you tell enough lies in the thousands of TV commercials you ryn. Score a vicyory for our Nazi Governor! Do we hate him? Oh yes we do!

So in Florida the people don't rulw, the Nazi Christians do? How many women will die? How many rapist's babies will be born? Are the crazy anti-abortion activists prepared to support those unfortunate mothers and their babies?

Yes, thr haters have won, I honestly fear what is coming. I think we vastly underestimated how many haters there are in America. Ovviously now we know America is a racist, xenophobic nation and not an intelligent one. To me it seems that this oorly educated, unintelligent majority got their way last night, now we'll see how well that works out for them. My guess is that it will backfire on them but, it's out of my hands now, we'll just have to wait and see what happens when stupidity becomes a virtue.
