Wednesday words of wisdom (9)

“If a friend or lover chooses to go their separate way, leave from your life, hold the door for them. Wish them well, respect their choice. Mourn their loss, but let them go. Be decent as they leave.”

“Fear is temporary, regret is forever”

“You cannot reach what is in front of you until you let go of what is behind you”

“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago…the second best time is Today”

“Life isn’t always about avoiding the bruises. It is also collecting the scars to show that we showed up for it.”

“Sometimes in life, people leave, but that is not the end of the story, that is just the end of their part in your story”

“If your absence doesn’t affect them, your presence never mattered”

“Strength, real strength comes from within It will manifest when you need it the most.”

 

A thought:

 

Kamala is supposed to speak to her supporters “Later Today” She was either unwilling, or unable to address her supporters late at night after it became clear she had lost the election. .

I find it interesting, and worth consideration, that BOTH times, that a woman candidate  was NOT elected president …That they were unable to at least thank their supporters for their support once it became clear that they would likely not win.

Not a failure to concede, that is a different thing. There is always the possibility that things could change until there isn’t.

But at least take the time, have the grace, the Gravitas, the plain old Class to thank your supporters, your campaign workers, the volunteers, the people who believed in you…Speak to them, say “Thank You”, show them that their support meant something to you. Instead of leaving your poor Co-chairman,  Cedric Richmond, to make excuses. (He handled it pretty well, I think)

But both times that women (who were Democrats) have lost, they have failed to do any of the above. Apparently too overcome with emotion or something. Broke down or otherwise were unable to speak.

Is it that Women can’t handle the loss and break down? Are too emotional? Unable be strong enough to do the right thing under pressure?  Or is it the Democrat women can’t?

Either way, it shows, to me, that the last two (Democrat) women candidates were  not strong enough for the office.

 

 

 

I expect

That the folks running the Biden Administration (we know it ain’t Slow Joe anymore)will use the next 2+ months to do what damage they can do finish what they can of their agenda:

I expect that they will open the southern borders to allow eve more illegals to cross and invade and invest in our country.

I expect a bunch of executive orders signed by Biden, that will do as much damage to the US, and implement as many unpopular parts of the Liberal agenda while they can.

I expect that there will be a great deal of protests, some violent, from the more left-leaning groups like Antifa and others like them….

Expect  lots of screaming and crying from the Left about :”Inclusiveness”, and “Sharing Power” and “Consideration of other viewpoints” and such. The Left always does this when they lose, and they lost bigly this time.

 

It is amusing

watching the so-called analysts explain the incredible (if you don’t acknowledge the cheating that happened in 2020) change in the voting patterns from last time……..

 

“Well, it was OBVIOUSLY the uninformed left handed Gay Latino voters in the south suburbs of Philadelphia who made the change and this caused a cascade of left handed people across the country to change their mind at the last minute”…or somesuch rationalizing like that..

Forget the fact that nearly 305 of the votes were case well before election day.

 

Hah. It really came down to more scrutiny and less cheating. And the candidates.

Never once do they appear to consider that she was almost as unlikeable as Hillary and that the policies she espoused were generally not what people wanted for the country….and that the Democrats had already damaged the country enough and made life worse for the citizens…

I gotta say,

When I woke up this morning, I was pleasantly surprised.

I expected a lot of strange anomalies, in the vote count and I expected that it would take days, or even weeks, to get those resolved….

Instead we got a Trump win earlier than expected.  While not (yet) a landslide, a decisive win.

It would seem that the election cheating that I expected didn’t take place …or at least not the extent that happened (most obviously) in 2020…I guess the folks in charge of vote count manipulation saw the preference cascade was such that they that they saw what the outcome might be and decided not to put themselves in a position where they might have been part of an investigation (this time) of the voting “irregularities” that were ignored last time.

It would seem that this time there were few (or none) of those odd statistical irregularities in the vote counts that plagued the elections in 2020. Odd, that innit?

I also see this as a vindication for all of us that believed that there was cheating last time. If there hadn’t been, one would wonder why states like Georgia and Pennsylvania, where some of those “irregularities” happened last election cycle, would have shifted so radically to the Trump side this time. If there hadn’t been a hand on the scale last time then one might ask: Why so much support in this election and in 2016? I suppose a credulous 12 year old might believe that 2020 was all just a strange anomaly.

Just look at the popular vote for confirmation of the above. nearly 10 million fewer blue votes than last time. Strange.

Congratulations to President Trump, and Congratulations to the United States. I think we dodged a bullet on Nov 5th 2024.

I hope you are invested in the stock market, it’s gonna soar in the next 6 months.

 

 

So the question is…

Since we can’t trust the election system…either the actual vote collection system, what with all the Mail In ballot issues, etc,

and since we really cannot trust the counting system…

 

Abd since we KNOW that in places like Philadephia and Michigan, ad Nevada we cannot trust the poll worj=ker either…

 

You gotta ask yourself, was this Tuesday, 11/5/2024, Election day, or Selection day?

It has been said that “If voting mattered, they wouldn’t let us do it“…And I am beginning to think that that is true.

I just can’t help but wonder

That all the coverage, all the news people and talking heads, all the time spent by the Media anchors,….all the supposed surveys and other prognostications…

 

Are they really just a bunch of noise to make us think that there is actually an election taking place??…. that the American people really are making a choice, a decision, and that our votes really count, or are we being misled and the selection process has already taken place and the decision has already been made and this is just sugar coating the truth? Telling the little girl that she did good when it was really Mom who made the cake? Telling thee young boy that he built the doghouse when all he really did was hand nails to Dad?

 

Or so that they can pat the folks on the right like a parent telling a teenager who just missed making the team…”It’s ok, honey, you TRIED. your Best..and came so close”…..

Are they fooling us, telling the rest of the citizenry that they really chose their “Leaders” for the next 4 year?

 

 

38 minutes

That’s 38 minutes door to door, from entering the facility, standing in line, showing my ID, getting my ballot, standing in another (shorter) line, voting, putting my ballot into the counter (who knows if it was counted properly?) and them walking out.

 

38 minutes. On voting day.

Of course the demographics of the people in line were mostly of European descent , so there as little time wasted, and everyone was polite and decent, which helps a lot.

Now, at 7:30 AM, I would bet the line was significantly longer, (there were more than twice the cars in the parking lot then) but the polling place workers were dong a decent job, and the voters weren’t dawdling at the machines.

The poll workers said the turnout had been fairly heavy so far, more than 40% over the las presidential election. Not sure how much of that is actual interest or if it can be chalked up to population growth.

Still, so far, a decent turnout. I just hope all the people who moved from Chicago to Northwest Indiana didn’t bring their voting preferences with them…..
