Gail Combs:
At first I was going to do a round-up of all of POTUS Trump’s picks via screen shots and then realized it would be WAY too long. Also the images would eat up too much time loading and possibly overwhelm Steve’s internet service. Therefore I am going to delve into some of the concerns raised. (If people are interested I can do the Trump picks as a separate article or possibly series of article to chronicle this Historic Post Election period.)
Given the skuttlebutt about Biden pardons, this maybe of interest:
Protect Democracy Org —Checking the Pardon Power:Constitutional Limitations & Options for Preventing Abuse
The author, Paul Ingrassia, is a Constitutional Scholar so it is worth reading in it’s entirety.
…The second branch of the government – aptly outlined under Article II, is the executive. The executive branch, under the Constitution’s very explicit original formulation (which, contrary to the overwhelming sentiment in today’s Washington, is an article that has not undergone emendation…) is vested entirely (in noticeable contradistinction to “mostly” or “largely”) in a (again, singular, one) President of the United States (“The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America” …the executive branch is the only one under our Constitution – which, again, is the law of the land – that is vested in a single individual….
In official duties, the President – or Chief Magistrate – is tasked with law enforcement. He is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, ensuring civilian control over the military — not, as our latter-day betters would have us believe, something to be outsourced to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, or the Pentagon, or lobbyists and consultants working for Raytheon.
Being singular or unitary, the President appoints cabinet secretaries and federal judges. The latter [Should be former -GC] answer to him alone. And while Congressional approval, in some cases, is needed to fulfill the President’s constitutional obligation for nominations, the President – as the Unitary Executive – has full discretion over the tenures of each and every one of his underlings within the executive department…
As for the agencies (and the larger bureaucracy), the acute observer will find – well, problematic – that no such fourth branch of government exists within the text of the Constitution…
Ingrassia makes the case that the federal bureaucracy is UNDER the executive branch, that is the PRESIDENT and therefore should be answerable to him. “…the President – as the Unitary Executive – has full discretion over the tenures of each and every one of his underlings within the executive department….” The following article from The Congressional Research Service (.gov) shows how Congress has gradually taken control of the executive from the President and turned it into an unelected, unfireable autocratic government aka The Deep State or Shadow Government.
…A little history: up until the end of the Civil War, the President exercised virtually unconstrained power to dismiss military officers. However, in 1865 Congress passed legislation which purports to limit that power. That legislation was essentially the same as that found today codified in 10 USC § 1161(a).
The legitimacy of Congress imposing statutory restrictions on the authority of the President to remove military officers was initially “subject of doubt and discussion.” It remains controversial even today, particularly since there doesn’t seem to be a case precisely on point as to the constitutionality.
👉Nevertheless, the better view does seem to suggest that Congress has the power to set some limits on the President’s dismissal authority – at least in times of peace….
To continue our analogy from above, the President is roughly akin to a British King – a comparison made both favorably and unfavorably throughout the Federalist Papers, that handbook to aid constitutional interpretation and explanation, devised by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay.
Thus we can go to The Federalist Papers, IF you can find them, to see what our founders actually meant… If you have any doubts. I had to use Yandex to actually find the papers.
[Listing of papers: https://www.federalistpapers.org/2012/12/federalist-papers.html]
…THE President of the United States is to be “commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the United States, and of the militia of the several States when called into the actual service of the United States.” The propriety of this provision is so evident in itself, and it is, at the same time, so consonant to the precedents of the State constitutions in general, that little need be said to explain or enforce it. 👉Even those of them which have, in other respects, coupled the chief magistrate with a council, have for the most part concentrated the military authority 👉in him alone. Of all the cares or concerns of government, the direction of war most peculiarly demands those qualities which distinguish 👉the exercise of power by a single hand…
….PANIC IN DC? WHY? WHAT WAS LOST? POWER OF THE PURSE. COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE UNITED STATES MILITARY. POWER TO REPLACE SENIOR OFFICIALS WITHIN CRUCIAL GOV POSITIONS (DEPT’S) WHO CAN THEN REPLACE SR+MID+LOW POSITIONS (TRICKLE_DOWN REPLACEMENT). POWER TO APPOINT SC JUSTICES. (What if HRC won and appointed 2+ crooked SCJs?) (The Last Resort) POWER TO DIRECTLY UNDO HUSSEIN/PREV EO’S WHICH HARMED-GREATLY LIMITED THE US IN MANY VITAL/NEC WAYS.

POWER TO DECLAS CRUCIAL DOCS TO PROVIDE THE PUBLIC W/ THE TRUTH (TRANSPARENCY). POWER TO GIVE BACK POWER TO THE PEOPLE (AS INTENDED BY OUR FOUNDERS). LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD.…
….
Ingrassia also cites Article III dealing with the establishment of the federal courts: the Supreme Court and the other federal courts. So let’s take a look at this branch of government since it is responsible for enforcing US law and the Constitution…. But IT HAS NOT! We pay attention to the DC government but most often over look the long term damage done by the corrupted judiciary.
The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office….
Section 2
The Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed…. [We now have trial by JUDGES or BUREAUCRATS and not juries BTW. – GC]
Section 3
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason…
So can Trump fire federal judges? NO, not according to Publius Huldah. I am a BIG FAN of this lady and I hope POTUS Trump finds a use for her, perhaps in JAG.
From her ABOUT page. “…Publius Huldah” is the nom de guerre of Joanna Martin, J.D., who is a thoroughly nice person, in addition to all the above. And if you hear otherwise, consider this from Socrates, who reportedly said, “When the debate is lost, slander is the weapon of the loser” [Boy, haven’t we seen the truth of that ancient wisdom! Also, if some one is slandered by the MSM, that means they are a threat to the Deep State in IMHO, – GC]
right out of law school & newly commissioned US Army JAGC
To the Department of Homeland Security:
I am delighted to learn of your intense & increasing interest in learning the original intent of Our Constitution! Please feel free to browse around to your hearts’ content.
😂 The comments are worth reading BTW
A search for the word “Judge” on her site turns up some real goodies — LINK. She has a similar opinion of the Supreme Court and judges to mine. 😡
Someone asked me why I write on the US Constitution when the US Supreme Court won’t enforce it.
This is why: Our Declaration of Independence recognizes the self-evident Truth that Rights come from God, and that they are unalienable. Accordingly, there are certain areas of your life which are off-limits to government regulation – you have an “immunity” from governmental regulation of these areas.
But since the federal and state governments are refusing to recognize our Rights, it falls on us to boldly step up to the plate and insist that our Rights be respected. You have no lawful, moral, or religious duty to submit to a government when it violates our Constitution and seeks to take from you the rights God gave you.
Governments do not have constitutional authority to force you to take the COVID JAB.
And in this paper I show that the “privileges and immunities” and “due process” clauses of the US Constitution prohibit the federal, state, and local governments from requiring you to be “jabbed” or putting you into a concentration camp if they assert that you are at “high risk” of getting infected [i.e., those who are 65 years of age or older]….
PLEASE READ!!! Huldah is a Constitutional scholar and lawyer. Her evisceration of the judiciary and Congress is Epic. [COSP =Convention of States Project, Mark Levin is an advocate BTW and thus a viper. I noticed after I pointed that out years ago at OT, the web page disappeared. 🤔]
4I trust you see why Hamilton is viciously smeared. The relentless attacks on our Framers have a purpose: Take them down – and our Foundation is destroyed. Hamilton wrote most of The Federalist Papers, which Madison and Jefferson recognized as the best evidence of the genuine meaning of our Constitution. What effect do these constant attacks on Hamilton have on peoples’ respect for The Federalist Papers? Beware of false friends who undermine our Foundation; and of jealous men whose claim to fame is that they attack Hamilton. [In looking up various Federalist Papers on Brave, I have come across some doozys but could not find the actual papers, just commentary. — GC]
This is her conclusion in her article on Transgenders in the Military.
Conclusion
Let us put the federal courts in their proper place! Congress and the President have the recognized power to refuse to go along with unconstitutional or ultra vires acts of the Judicial Branch; and their Oaths of office require them to do so. Congress also has the power to rid us of usurping federal judges via the impeachment process.
Let’s analyze COSP’s silly argument. We begin by looking at First Principles:
♦The Judicial Branch was created by Art. III, §1, US Constitution. Accordingly, it is a “creature” of the Constitution. 1
♦The federal government came into existence when the States, acting through special ratifying conventions held in each of the States, ratified the Constitution.2
Since the Judicial Branch is merely a “creature” of the Constitution, it follows that it is subordinate to the Constitution, and is completely subject to its terms. It may not annul the superior authority of the States which created the Judicial Branch when they ratified the Constitution; 3 and as a mere “creature” of the Constitution, it may NOT change the Constitution under which it holds its existence! 4
….we elect to Congress people who don’t know our Constitution or The Federalist Papers; and they are unaware of their Duty – imposed by their Oath of office – to function as a “check” on the Judicial Branch by impeaching federal judges who violate our Constitution.
… we delegated only a very few powers to the federal government.
Accordingly, Congress has strictly limited legislative powers over the Country at large. These powers are listed primarily at Art. I, §8, clauses 3-16, and are restricted to war, international commerce & relations; and domestically, the creation of an uniform commercial system: weights & measures, patents & copyrights, a monetary system based on gold & silver, bankruptcy laws, mail delivery & roads. Several Amendments delegate to Congress some power over civil rights.
These enumerated powers are the only areas where the federal government has lawful authority over The States and The People in The States. In all other matters [except those listed at Art. I, §10]the States and The People retain supremacy, independence, and sovereignty. Go here for a complete list of all of Congress’ Enumerated Powers.
Obamacare is altogether unconstitutional because it is outside the scope of the legislative powers We granted to Congress. 👉Nothing in Our Constitution authorizes the federal government to control our medical care 👈 (or to exercise the other fearsome powers in the Act)...
… it is a President’s sworn duty to refuse to enforce any unconstitutional “law” made by Congress. And contrary to the misinformation with which we are constantly bombarded, judges are not vested with exclusive authority to declare Acts of Congress unconstitutional.
The Truth is that a President, the States, local governments, 👉and individual citizens👈, together with the courts, all have the Right &Duty to overrule – to spurn & cast out – unconstitutional laws made by Congress.For it is a fundamental [though long suppressed] Principle of our Founding that an unconstitutional “law” is no “law” at all – it is a “mere usurpation, and deserves to be treated as such”…
I am going to detour to what I consider an important topic in my old notes, JURY NULLIFICATION. It is the American citizens FINAL SAY on the laws passed by our representatives. From 2015:
A pamphlet told the juror what his Constitutional rights and obligations were. This is information the JUDGE should be clearly stating to EVERY JURY. INSTEAD He was arrested for handing out literature. LINK
In fact this is becoming a LAW in some states thanks to the groups handing out the pamphlets.
This is perhaps THE MOST IMPORTANT move any American can make to protect our freedom. WE as Jurorists have the RIGHT and duty to judge not only the case by the LAW itself. We as Jurorists CAN set aside laws passed by Congress! This is the ultimate power of the people over the government and the Elite want to keep it hidden!
…On appeal, however, the jurors’ action was upheld and the right of juries to judge both the law and the facts — to nullify the law if it chose— became part of British constitutional law.
It ultimately became part of American constitutional law as well, With only a few exceptions, juries are explicitly or implicitly told to worry only about the facts and let the judge decide the law.
The right of jury nullification has become one of the legal system’s best kept secrets.
Now a remarkable coalition has sprung up to challenge this secrecy as undemocratic, unconstitutional and dangerous…
FIJA seeks to require that juries be informed of their nullification rights. Informed jury amendments have been filed as an initiative in seven states and legislation has been introduced in the Alaska state legislature.
Merely raising the issue of nullification can make prosecutors nervous, for it takes only one person aware of the right in order to hang a jury. In Washington, DC, where the concept was discussed in connection with the Marion Barry trial, a local television station reported that the US Attorney was worried that a jury might nullify the law in that case……
Far from being an unintended side-effect, jury nullification is explicitly authorized in the constitutions of 24 states.State Language on Jury Nullification
“…Merely raising the issue of nullification can make prosecutors nervous…”
Publius Huldah gets into WHY prosecutors become nervous and what has been done to our legal system.
…The Federalist Papers were written during 1787-88 by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, to explain the proposed Constitution to The People and to induce them to ratify it. Thus, The Federalist is the most authoritative commentary on the genuine meaning of Our Constitution. And at a meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia on March 4, 1825 at which Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were present, the following resolution selecting the texts for the Law school, was passed:
…on the distinctive principles of the government of our own state, and of that of the US. the best guides are to be found in 1. the Declaration of Independance, as the fundamental act of union of these states. 2. the book known by the title of `The Federalist’, being an authority to which appeal is habitually made by all, and rarely declined or denied by any as evidence of the general opinion of those who framed, and of those who accepted the Constitution of the US. on questions as to it’s genuine meaning…. (page 83) [emphasis added]
So! Thomas Jefferson, Author of the Declaration of Independence, and James Madison, Father of The Constitution, acknowledged the high authoritative status of The Federalist Papers. They saw The Constitution as having a fixed meaning which one could learn by consulting The Federalist!
2. But supreme Court judges soon refused to submit to The Constitution as explained by The Federalist Papers. In 1907, former Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes said, “…the Constitution is what the judges say it is…”. Judges thus rejected the objective standard provided by The Federalist, and substituted their own subjective interpretations. Law schools embraced this subversion: Instead of teaching The Constitution as a set of fixed principles explained by The Federalist, they taught supreme Court opinions which say Congress may do whatever it pleases. They also taught that supreme Court judges have unbridled authority to say what the Constitution means. Law schools thus produced generations of constitutionally illiterate lawyers & judges who have been indoctrinated with the monstrous Lie that Our Constitution means whatever judges on the supreme Court say! And because these lawyers failed in their sacred duty to think, and uncritically accepted what they were told, Our Country is on the brink of destruction….
Of course our John Dewey Progressive School System made DARN SURE Americans are completely ignorant of our Constitution, rights and remedies, the better to turn us into good little Marxist slaves.
On last, Publius Huldah’s article on calling forth the militia.
Because of its excellence and relevance to the insurrections being fomented in our cities by the Marxist organization “Black Lives Matter”, Antifa, and other revolutionary organizations; I sent the recent paper by Edwin Vieira, JD., Ph.D., titled, “The President’s Authority To Suppress Insurrections” [link], to my lists.
In response, some objected that the riots in the cities are local issues to be handled (or not) by the State and local governments – that they are not “federal” issues over which the federal government has jurisdiction. Some also asserted that Article IV, §4, US Constitution prohibits the President from sending the National Guard into a State to quell such disturbances, unless & until the Legislature or the Governor of the State requests it.
Those objections are not well-founded.
First: What’s going on in our cities is not something which can be prudently brushed aside. It is a classic manifestation of a Marxist revolution – see, e.g., this article from “Workers’ World”. Furthermore, as shown below, the President of the United States has constitutional and statutory authority to exercise his own judgment as to whether he should send in the “Militia” to suppress the uprisings.
Second: Our Constitution provides two separate and independent methods for the federal government to suppress such uprisings.
Dr. Vieira’s paper sets forth the other method of “calling forth the Militia” – the method provided for at Article I, §8, clauses 15 & 16, US Constitution. That provides for the intervention of the Militia within a State at the initiative of the federal government, regardless of whether the State requests it.. 1
I hope you enjoyed my tour through some of Publius Huldah’s articles and will continue reading her excellent commentary. I am now going to look at a few other articles of interest by others.
….a recent Congressional Research Service report explains. “The criteria for election or appointment to these positions are specified in the U.S. Constitution, and except by constitutional amendment, no additional criteria (e.g., holding a security clearance) may be required.”
In fact, the security clearance system itself is an expression of presidential authority. Its scope and operation are defined in an executive order (EO 12968), and its terms can be modified by the President at will.
And if the President wished to grant access to classified information to a family member, for example, there would be no legal barrier to doing so…..
So that kills THAT objection by RINOs and Demonrats when it comes to ratifying POTUS Trump’s picks.
…Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson wrote in a letter to the senators earlier this month that he could not begin a review of the security clearance process without direction from Trump or one of his “designees” because “the authority over access to classified information ultimately rests with the President of the United States.”…
Of course the Senate has ZERO jurisdiction over Security Clearances so this is just more encroachment on the executive.
Matt Gaetz
So You CAN appoint a private citizen as a Special Counsel, and they can begin their important work WITHOUT a Senate confirmation hearing or vote?
Now Adam Schiff is going to be come a senator. I wonder if POTUS Trump will deny him a security clearance…. OR WORSE?
Added by Wolf…..
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) on Tuesday assailed President-elect Donald Trump’s suggestion that he and other former members of the defunct House Jan. 6 committee be imprisoned.
Trump advocated that those on the former panel who investigated the 2021 U.S. Capitol riot and his role in overturning the 2020 election should “go to jail.”
“I don’t think the incoming president should be threatening his political opponents with jail time,” Schiff told reporters on his first full day as a senator. “That’s not the kind of talk we should hear from the president in a democracy, nor do I think that a pardon is necessary for the members of the Jan. 6 committee.”
President Joe Biden is weighing preemptive pardons over fears Trump may seek retribution against Schiff and other high-profile members of the bipartisan panel, including former Chairman Bennie Thomson (D-MS), Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), and former Rep. Liz Cheney. Biden is also considering pardons for other political foes who could come under Trump’s microscope.
“We are proud of the work we did in that committee,” Schiff continued. “It was a fundamental oversight obligation to investigate the first attempt to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power in our history.”
Trump said in an NBC Meet the Press interview that aired over the weekend that he would not direct Justice Department officials to bring charges against the committee members but accused them of engaging in unspecified criminal activity.
“For what they did, honestly, they should go to jail,” Trump said.
In a separate portion, Trump said that “retribution will be through success.” He’s also vowed to pardon those charged with and convicted of crimes related to the Capitol riot.
Let’s see what happens to Pencil-Neck Shifty Schiff!
Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1 – RETRACTED!
No reasons for you not to joke about Team Harpies On Pedestals, now that the nation has voted overwhelmingly for FREE SPEECH. Just remember that I really avoid deleting posts, so if you say something stupid, and you regret it later, you will need to add a clarification comment, as opposed to deleting it.
OK? Them’s the rules.
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the 2016, 2020, and 2024 elections.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
Here are three “placeholder” videos, selected from old Wheatie posts.
Election Day is here! Our President has done everything humanly possible to win for us. He now needs us to do our part. Trump voters will be voting in record numbers later today. There is absolutely nothing the Democrats, MSM, Leftists, Never Trumpers etc. can do to stop our MONSTER.
We have waited patiently. We have taken everything they could possibly throw at us. We will do our talking by voting for PDJT later today.
The biggest irony when they look back on the past year leading up to Election Day will be the Coronavirus. Had it never happened, all the BS polls and pundits would have been screwed. It was the ONLY reason they had to believe they could win. It literally killed our economy for 6 months. It caused panic and fear. It brought our country to a complete stop for over 2 months. It allowed Americans to question our President and his administration.
It also caused Democrat and RINO Governors to have power over their people in ways we could not have imagined. Those powers allowed colleges to be closed in the fall. It stopped the ability of Americans to go and pray on Sundays.
Democrats decided that door knocking would not be necessary. They needed to keep up the charade. In the end, they literally took a winning topic and allowed it to be the biggest reason they will get their asses handed to them later today.
The youth vote was the reason that pollsters were using to say that there would be an additional 30 million Americans that would vote for the first time. That will NOT happen! Those young voters needed to be on campus so that they could get out the vote amongst their peers. Those same youth voters would have been the ones to volunteer to door knock all across our country for the Democrat Party.
The Democrats destroyed all of that because they overused the Coronavirus. They also destroyed their opportunities to get voters that went to church to go vote afterwards on Sundays. You couldn’t get it to happen when you made sure people couldn’t congregate.
The other thing that killed them was that Europe would be hit with the second wave one month before Election Day. Just this past week you had France, Germany, Spain, the U.K. and others all shutdown their countries for a second time. People in those countries are revolting. Americans are seeing it with their own eyes. They also know that SleepyCreepy Joe has stated that he would shutdown our country if the medical professionals told him to do so.
That is the last thing a majority of Americans want. They also know that PDJT will NEVER shutdown our country again.
Here is what we know:
At this point in time, nearly 88 million Americans have voted. We have REAL data. All liberal polls at this point in time should be thrown in the trash.
All the BS polls and projections from Nate Silver, Nate Cohn and David Wasserman had 30 million new voters voting for the first time in this election.
The vast majority of those new voters are supposed to come from those between the ages of 18-29 and 30-39.
Let’s take a look at the data from 2016’s election. Pew does a really good job post election to determine who voted by age group, ethnicity, income levels etc.
Here is the current total vote count by age group:
The youth vote 18-29 (Biden’s best group) is currently sitting at 13%.
The 30-39 year olds are at 13% (Biden’s 2nd best group).
The 50-64 year olds (Trumps best group) are at 28% while the 65+ ( Trump’s 2nd best group) are at 32%.
The one group I am not accounting for are the 40-49 year olds who will break for PDJT over Biden (they are at 14%).
In 2016 the youth vote was 13% (+0) and the 30-39 was ~15% (I divided the 30-49 year olds in half even though more of the 40-49 year olds would have voted in 2016). That age group is -2% compared to 2016.
The 50-64 was 29% (-1%) while the 65+ was 27% (+5%).
The 18-40 year olds combined are -2% while the 50-65+ is +4%.
For those that think the youth will raise their total on Election Day, they had numerous opportunities to vote in person or by mail in a majority of states this year and are currently just 13% of the vote share nationally. Far worse in some battleground states
If you think later today they are going to stand in line for hours with a mask on and freezing their asses of in MN, WI, MI, IA, PA etc. for a candidate they wanted nothing to do with, I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale.
The numbers tell the story of this election and why Nate Silver, Nate Cohn and Dave Wasserman are going to have some really upset crazies ready to ask for their pound of flesh.
Democrats played stupid games with the Coronavirus and now they are going to win stupid prizes. PDJT will be re-elected, the Senate will remain with Republicans and the House will return back to the Republican Party.
Here is my electoral map:
Here is my Senate projections:
53-47 (we win MI & AL but lose AZ & CO) or (we win AL but lose CO)
My number one projection:
54-46 (we win MI & AL but lose only CO)
Best case scenario:
55-45 (we win MI, AL & MN but lose only CO)
Worst case scenario:
52-48 (we win AL but lose CO & AZ)
House Projection:
We will win 25 seats in the House where only 17 was needed in order to win it back.
Beware the predictable calls against mail-in ballots by John Brennan, Jim Comey, and all those LOSER AMERIKANSKIS who tried to stop MUH VLADDY last time. Sorry – too late. Moscow is stealing this election again, Democrat losers and haters, and there is NOTHING you can do about it.
Every time I speak of the haters and losers I do so with great love and affection. They cannot help the fact that they were born fucked up!
Yes, it’s too late to stop mail-in ballots, and Democrats are going to LOSE AGAIN. President Trump has now spilled the beans, so I can come out OPENLY and support Russian Mail-In Ballots!
OK, I'M REVERSING MY POSITION ON MAIL-IN BALLOTS! PUTIN GONNA RESCUE MUH DRUMPF WITH MAIL-IN BALLOTS! YOU FOOLISH DEMOCRATS DID IT, AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO NOW – YOU'RE STUCK ON THE POSITION! BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA! FOUR MORE YEARS AND TOASTING GLASSES IN MOSCOW – YOU LOSE! https://t.co/70eXbxibqM
NOW do you see why Drumpf backed aging, senile, boob-job veteran Nancy Pelosi for Speaker, and helped kill off honest socialist Bernie Sanders, so that y’all would be stuck with literally demented Joe Biden as his opponent?
OMG, this operation was so SLICK! Trump even got Pelosi herself to push for the mail-in ballots, while “defending” against the idea.
I mean, seriously. POLIDENT? You think Polident gonna figure this shit out? Maybe just NOW!
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Did I say it? I’ll say it again.
BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!
You Democrats think “Hands” Biden is gonna figure out Trump’s cunning triple-reverso-with-a-backflip imposition of RUSSIAN MAIL-IN-BALLOTS? A Machiavellian Sun-Tzu master who got YOU to ask for the Russian win?
Hands Biden? Who got schooled by THE KEEBLER ELF?
“Smugs” Biden, a.k.a. Captain Obvious, who could not – in his PRIME at the Clarence Thomas hearings – even conceal his foolish hatred for a black guy who always was and always will be 100 times smarter than good-old-boy “Plagiarize” Biden?
The hair-sniffin’, nursing home-qualified, Basement Joe? Your “funny uncle” who needs to be in a home NOW, where nobody will see him hitting on therapists like some ULTRA-BOOMER from pre-feminist hell? This guy is gonna stop PUTIN and TRUMP? THIS GUY???
A guy who – UNLIKE Trump, who runs rings around Twitter – has to be HELPED by Facebook?
Yup. TOO LATE, DEMOCRATS. You’re stuck with OLD LOSERS who think these riots are going to help. They ain’t gonna help. They’re gonna seal the deal for Putin and Trump.
Let me say the word FROM YOUR LIPS that will chill you to the BONE, Dems:
“Authoritarians.”
Hey, you called it, Dumb-o-crats.
I’m predicting a TRUMP LANDSLIDE.
NOW – here is the killer. This is why Mail-In Ballots will favor TRUMP and not BIDEN.
The Quality of Forgery Goes To The Russians.
I repeat.
The Quality of Forgery Goes To The Russians.
You guys think China can pull you out of this?
HA! Too late. Maybe in 500 years. Not today.
NO WAY.
Russia has always been WAY BETTER than China at every form of document-based fraud in the West. And this is an extension of their general ability to counterfeit things, which is legendary among those of us who are WISE to how crafty the Russians REALLY ARE.
You always catch Chinese counterfeit EVERYTHING.
You NEVER catch Russian counterfeit ANYTHING.
Did you ever stop to wonder WHY?
OMG, this is so perfect.
All Trump has to do is implement some kind of “Election Integrity” to weed out forgeries, fraud, and bad ballots.
The pulled ballots will ALL be Chinese crap favoring Democrats.
BLAME THE VICTIM. “Democrat fraud!!!” LOL.
The RUSSIAN BALLOTS for Trump will sail right through, fooling everybody.
SO – here is my advice to Republicans.
Yeah, it’s good cover to OPPOSE mail-in ballots, but don’t fight them too hard – OK? *WINK*
As a “dangerous conspiracy theorist”, it is now my duty to do my job, and post a rather startling conspiracy theory. However, there needs to be a bit of context here.
This post – “done” and ready to go – sat in the can on my heavily FISA-monitored WordPress account for almost a week, allowing time for people of various kinds to see it and react to it. I chose NOT to publish it immediately. In fact, I am now CHANGING THE INTRO substantially to make allowances for the effects of having let people – both GOOD and BAD – see it.
I’m not changing the important parts – just this introduction. You will see why shortly.
Sometimes, you just have to let the other side make a move as a form of confirmation.
Originally, this post was framed from the viewpoint of “HOW ARE THEY GOING TO TAKE OUT BERNIE THIS TIME?” But NOW it seems like the forces of darkness and injustice are actually back to the same old problem they had before, and which became extremely clear to me as I researched the political context timeline of Dylann Roof…..
“HOW ARE THEY GOING TO TAKE OUT *BOTH* TRUMP AND BERNIE THIS TIME?”
How do I know that I got their goat?
Look what dropped today. It ain’t all me, but trust me – I helped. “BASELESS.”
Yeah, right. SUCKAS!
QAnon, a baseless but sprawling pro-Trump conspiracy theory, began online in 2017. It has since attracted thousands of followers, bringing what researchers call a cult and what the FBI says is a potential domestic terror threat into the offline world.https://t.co/mJ30CWyGbK
From its start, QAnon has been bound up with "MAGA" communities online. The core belief is that the president is heroically battling entrenched evil — however outlandish and unfounded — and it can now be frequently seen at Trump campaign rallies.
The seepage of conspiracy theorizing from the digital fever swamps into life offline is one of the more unsettling developments of the Trump era, in which the president has relentlessly pushed groundless conspiracies to reshape political narratives for his benefit. pic.twitter.com/1yXCy9pkUi
Several Republican politicians at local, state, and congressional levels have signaled interest in QAnon. Matthew Lusk, running unopposed in a Republican congressional primary in Florida, openly embraces it, saying its anonymous creator is a patriot.
Researchers who track conspiracy theories say there's a potential for violence by unstable individuals who fall under QAnon's sway, particularly in the fraught political climate of the 2020 election. pic.twitter.com/wfZ8egt25I
There have already been several such QAnon-linked incidences, including one in 2018 when a man with an AR-15 style rifle and handgun in an armored truck had a standoff with police and demanded the release of a report on the government investigation of Hillary Clinton's emails.
In its intelligence bulletin identifying QAnon as a potential domestic terror threat, the FBI warned that social media was serving as an incubator for groundless theories and inspiring followers to take action. pic.twitter.com/EUgvIKWNNU
Read @mmcintire and @kevinroose's full report on how the online conspiracy theory QAnon has steadily migrated offline to Republican campaigns, colleges and even a murder case: https://t.co/dTIzVzi15O
There’s no “potential for violence”. Stop LYING, New York Times. YOU are on the side of murderers who have ABUSED the entire mechanism of government, and you will pay dearly for it, but NOT by the hands of your victims.
You will pay THIS WAY.

Funny that I am unable to access her tweet on Twitter, but the WordPress Twitter plugin API can do it. New York Times? No problem. But not Lisa.
It’s called censorship, folks. They feed us their communist Russia! Russia! Russia! hoax bullshit for 3 years, and then they DARE to call US the “conspiracy theorists”, as justification to SQUELCH OUR VOICES.
PREPARE FOR JUSTICE, NEW YORK TIMES. We do not need your fake news. You’re GOING DOWN.
And PEACEFULLY, you PRECIOUS PRICKS.
So let’s begin. Let’s look at what they’re SO AFRAID OF.
Part 1. The Background. Targeted Killings Hidden Under Psychological Trauma Events. THE PAST.
In 2015 and 2016, I saw many dirty tricks deployed against Bernie Sanders by the Hillary Machine, both in the news and in my community (broadly speaking). There is a “deep blue Hillary zone” nearby, which I was able to observed closely, and I was quite shocked how efficiently they put out the “Bernie burns” that would flare up. Posters ripped down. Chalking washed away. Hillary’s city employees were ALL OVER IT.
However, there was ONE slick move against Bernie that VERY few people saw. And even the people who saw it, were overwhelmed and instantly defeated by the unique and powerful psychology of “traumatic death unquestionability” – something which makes psychological trauma events so delicious to the highly conspiratorial, as dependably safe ways to murder problematic people like witnesses.
I have NEVER believed that the Dylann Roof murders – the Charleston church shooting – was anything less than an act of Bolshevik murder and blood hoaxing, using controlled and guided opposition. But it goes WAY, WAY beyond mere cui bono.
The reason is that I always had the murder in the correct context – deep suspicion – due to my intense interest in the 2016 Presidential Election, and all things affecting the 2015-2016 Presidential PRIMARY PROCESS.
Sundance, over at CTH, identified the Deep State / GOPe plan to – AT BEST – elect Jeb Bush, and – AT LEAST – remove Donald Trump. This “Roadmap” proved extremely useful in predicting most of the sneaky and downright malevolent moves made *by Republicans* against CANDIDATE Donald J. Trump.
There was, however, a similar but smaller-casted bit of kabuki theater going on in the Democrat party. I watched it with great interest, as all the intellectual Bernie lovers I knew from my old career days were thrown to the wolves by the DNC. Less politically astute – many of them being “self-unaware socialists”, they had no idea how badly Bernie was getting screwed. But in the same way that I could see TRUMP getting screwed, I could also see BERNIE getting screwed.
In the Democrat “roadmap”, “excused white guy” Bernie Sanders was to be USED as the “old white guy” to keep Hillary-phobic voters from fleeing the plantation for the left end of Trumpsville. This is not a bad ploy, actually. In fact, it’s pretty ingenious. The PRICE for whites and/or males to stay utterly unaccusable within the PC-DNC, was to move just a smidgen to the left, while still keeping all their guns and their now-unassailable white skin and/or testicles.
However, Bernie was NOT supposed to win. He was supposed to tag along in the slow lane, keep Democrats voting Democrat – to lose graciously – and to send his support afterwards to HILLARY CLINTON.
The problem? Hillary Clinton was such an incredibly and intrinsically terrible candidate, that Sanders actually polled very well against her. Too well. And worse still, Bernie was designed to work well for Hillary against wishy-washy, low-energy Jeb Bush – not stake-in-the-ground, high-energy Donald Trump. A “fake center” could not be created with Bernie Sanders, who Trump even referred to as a “communist” very early in the process.
Bernie Sanders became more of a liability than an asset to Hillary Clinton. SEE SETH RICH.
Candidate Sanders was probably “shields down” to Hillary Clinton’s spying, even in 2014, thanks to her strong Deep State support, but when Bernie announced his candidacy publicly on April 30, 2015, the fight was ON. The reactions to this choice were NOT what Hillary Clinton hoped to hear.
Bernie started raking in SUPPORT and MONEY. All of the BADNESS of Hillary Clinton – the YEARS of KARMA that had built up, were sending support to the most credible alternative – BERNIE.
In the immediate aftermath of the Charleston shooting, which happened 48 days later on June 17, 2015, I was able to find online evidence – multiple sources – that black political leaders in South Carolina, including Rev. Clementa Pinckney, the most important victim of the shooting, were still holding “pro-Obama, anti-Hillary” views, and were WELCOMING THE CHOICE of Bernie Sanders. One of the quotes I read was almost taunting Hillary and the DNC with the possibility of Bernie support. These black religious leaders – who have POWERFUL influence over the votes of “the black bloc” in South Carolina – were asserting leverage on Hillary’s campaign. They were part of the FORGOTTEN AMERICANS that President Trump loves to talk about – using the ONLY leverage they thought they had – their VOTES IN THE PRIMARY.
By the way, I dare anybody to find these articles now. I’ve tried many times. As far as I can tell, it all went down a classified memory hole. I should have taken screenshots. But I wasn’t yet schooled on the utter mendacity of not just FAKE NEWS but BAD COPS in June of 2015.
This was internal Democrat politics, which can be EXTREMELY ugly.
Remember when the communist wing of the DNC, aligned behind Tom Perez as candidate for DNC chair, and against Islamist-wing candidate Keith Ellison, actually used several black and brown radicals to topple Jewish gravestones, and a young hacker in Israel to phone in hoax bomb scares to Jewish community centers?
Did you notice that they let people with Q shirts and gear into the same Trump rally where there was a REALLY WEIRD Q post just a couple of hours earlier? I think there may be a connection. I know this is a much different (and less catastrophic) interpretation than a lot of them – …
Remember – these little media-saturating hoaxes were just minor, post-election ugliness. Nobody died. 2020 was a LONG ways off, and control of the DNC was not absolutely essential to save the possibility of Hillary 2020.
In contrast, when Bernie announced in late April 2015, there was a significant chance that he could overtake Hillary’s campaign as the “Obama inheritor”. The FUNDRAISING by Bernie was beginning.
It helps to look at a TIMELINE of Bernie’s campaign – HERE:
The big gap on the left is the time between when Bernie announced (04/30/2015) and the FIRST Democratic Debate (10/13/2015).
What happened in between these times? Well, during the time prior to 06/17/2015 – the date of the Charleston shooting, Bernie Sanders was already threatening to become the “Obama successor” over Hillary Clinton. More on that below.
And – oh – funny coincidence – ONE DAY BEFORE THE SHOOTING – on 06/16/2015 – guess who announced HIS bid for the Presidency?
https://youtu.be/Ab9AnZaLL1U
Yes. It was NO ACCIDENT – IMO – that the ANNOUNCEMENT of the Trump candidacy was LOST in the WIND of Charleston. By design. You will see more proof shortly.
My read of this is that the Dylann Roof shooting – possibly coordinated with anti-Trump CIA embeds in the FBI and “elsewhere” – was designed to deal with BOTH the Sanders problem and the Trump problem.
If you are having trouble with this concept – that politically useful “wing-nuts” under FBI surveillance might be not just USED but GROOMED for political gain rather than simply stopped, please read my own experience with the way that the Comey FBI seemed to try to groom hopeful shooters and other “left-politically useful” bots, and to some extent still does.
Based on the TIMING, Dylann Roof’s murderous act was far more than needed to take out Sanders, but it was potentially “not enough” to deal with Trump – hence the close timing to Trump’s announcement of candidacy. And, on February 19, 2016, that thinking was indeed proven correct. Roof was enough to take out Sanders – but not enough to stop Trump.
Notice that Trump’s very astute failure to eliminate “Little Marco” Rubio early on, gave him the edge in South Carolina, by keeping Rubio votes from going to Cruz. Rubio polled very well in Pinckney’s district – see full details here:
That support would have gone to CRUZ, had Rubio been no longer viable.
Notice how STRONGLY Hillary defeated Bernie in South Carolina. Bernie actually did somewhat BETTER in Pinckney’s district (State Senator, 45th district, Charleston), probably because of lingering distrust of Hillary Clinton.
Now – stop for a second and re-read what I just wrote.
STATE SENATOR. Where did THAT come from? I thought this was just the killing of 9 worshipers. Sure, one was a Reverend if you read through to the end of the article – but – wow – a State Senator, too?
Clementa C. Pinckney, South Carolina State Senator, 45th District, 2001-2015. Prior to that, for 4 years, he was a State Representative.
Notice that the Fake News media AVOIDED characterizing this as being, in any way, potentially POLITICAL, or even directed toward a politician, or even directed toward a political leader. If you watched the fake news positioning of the man and the incident, Pinckney was a churchgoer victim first, a reverend second, a political activist third, a politician fourth, an elected official fifth, a former state representative sixth, and a CURRENT STATE SENATOR last.
This is how LOOK SQUIRREL works. Very subtly.
In fact, I found it remarkable that the media tried to concentrate on all victims EXCEPT Pinckney. The Fake News sure seemed to want to talk about the oldest lady, or the bravest woman victim, or the two who hugged each other, but they seemed LOATH to talk about the Reverend, or to single him out in any way.
FAKE NEWS. They truly are the enemy of the People. Even when they’re being “nice” and sympathetic.
So WHY did the media frame this as a CHURCH SHOOTING, when in reality, the most important person to die there was not just a Reverend, but a STATE SENATOR?
When the whole affair REEKS of POLITICAL ASSASSINATION – NOT MERELY HATE?
Let’s look at that in detail.
If you don’t understand how the Dylann Roof shooting worked, to secure Hillary Clinton the Democratic 2016 Presidential nomination, I will spell it out completely.
The MOTIVE is clear. If Clementa Pinckney wasn’t solidly behind Hillary, she was WOBBLY. If he was behind Bernie, she was GONE. Fundraising was already beginning – more on that later. A BERNIE win in South Carolina – right around the time that people regard Iowa and New Hampshire FLUKES as being washed out – would DEVASTATE Hillary’s chances to get back into the White House.
South Carolina was a classic bottleneck. Hillary had to go through it, and Clementa Pinckney was the GATEKEEPER. He was the QUEENMAKER.
Or the KINGMAKER.
Pinkney KNEW he had good cards. But he had no idea how much of a CHEATER he was playing against, in Hillary “Ma Cankles” Clinton. And it was worse than that. Hillary had forces behind her which had killed PRESIDENTS. He didn’t stand a chance. NONE. Wiped off the map as a HERO. The easiest way to remove him.
Stalinism – Maoism – they don’t take prisoners when DEATH serves their interests better.
So what about MEANS and OPPORTUNITY?
Yeah. Now THAT part is interesting.
Mass shootings are PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA. They are designed to HIT YOU – and hit you HARD. What you THINK later is not as important as what your GUT tells you right away. Your GUT REACTION will echo in your head for the rest of your life. Your logical thoughts may actually change. Your gut response won’t. And it will be STUCK to any later mention of the event.
The immediate message of Dylann Roof to normal people – even those who logically understand the ERROR of the thinking, is as follows:
Oooooh. Gotta do something about those guns.
Oooooh. Gotta do something about the hate.
Oooooh. It was a church. This is just wrong. No guns in church.
Oooooh. White man bad. Even the young ones. Can’t be trusted.
Oooooh. Poor black woman good. Black good. Woman good.
Psychological trauma events don’t care about your logic. That is why they work so well. They just override all that. And that is why the Cankles Left loves them so much.
And yet, psychological trauma events – especially TERRORISM – are SO USEFUL for targeted attacks at the same time, “because random”, and as I mentioned earlier, because they have a certain “unquestionability” which arises out of the psychological trauma itself.
People begins ADAPTING to the psychological trauma immediately. It’s like poured concrete. It just starts setting immediately. NOBODY wants to UNDO that – to PICK THE SCAB – to BREAK AND RESET BONE – just because there’s something wrong underneath. They just want to get back to normal in what looks like the easiest way possible.
Thus, the social psychological response to terrorism is usually stuck on the first and most obvious explanation. And THAT means that all other reasoning will adapt to it.
Bury an otherwise suspicious potentially targeted killing in a terrorist event, and “RANDOM” will simply be applied to it, no matter what.
Check THIS out – Clinton Foundation vaccine / AIDS researcher who was killed in that Kenya mall terrorist attack where the killers checked IDs. Her fiance (also killed) was creating treatment centers. I am convinced this was a targeted killing.https://t.co/2WghmF5cD0
Back to the BERNIE KILLERS. Yeah, let’s take out that old white guy’s campaign. Dig the psychology.
Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump were both OLD WHITE GUYS who support – more or less – the Second Amendment. Bernie’s support for RKBA is really QUITE abysmal, now typically getting a “D-” from the NRA. In fact, I think he may even be “going for broke” by matching the confiscation talk of his opponents. HOWEVER, among “Bernie bros”, the fact that Bernie will make clumsy, waffling defenses of the Second Amendment, is actually enough to make a difference to those on the left who own guns. Bernie is within THEIR Overton window on guns. And sure enough, Hillary repeatedly used Bernie’s limited defense of the Second Amendment to attack him.
But Bernie wasn’t the ONLY person who Hillary was attacking, early in the primary season, immediately AFTER the Dylann Roof Operation:
You need TWO URLs here – one for the original article, and one in case “they” do some cleanup here, similar to what “they” did with Clementa Pinckney’s critical comments about Hillary.
You need to read the article, but THIS MUCH is key. AND I QUOTE:
Behold, Hillary Clinton somehow blaming Dylann Roof killing nine people on the stupid crap that comes out of Donald Trump’s mouth. Via Politico:
“We have to have a candid national conversation about race and about discrimination, prejudice, hatred,” Clinton said in an interview with KNPB’s Jon Ralston. “But unfortunately the public discourse is sometimes hotter and more negative than it should be, which can, in my opinion, trigger people who are less than stable.”
“For example,” the former secretary of state added, “a recent entry into the Republican presidential campaign said some very inflammatory things about Mexicans. Everybody should stand up and say that’s not acceptable. You don’t talk like that on talk radio. You don’t talk like that on the kind of political campaigns.”
There is much more in this amazingly short article, including TWO LINKS (one and two) to Hillary Clinton’s support for a constitutional amendment to prohibit crowd-funding of political media (meaning the results of Citizens United, such as the Tea Party). Yeah, let that sink in. She wants a “First-Killer” amendment.
But let’s get back to the timeline. There is some REALLY interesting stuff here.
There is so much here, it’s easy to get overwhelmed.
For starters, you may not have internalized ANYTHING after your JAW DROPPED while reading that Hillary was in Charleston the SAME DAY that the church was hit and the Bernie holdout was assassinated. But yes, she was.
WHAT ARE THE ODDS?
If you click on this speech – which is not easy to find – it obviously has NOTHING to do with any issues which Hillary is going to be able to fire up her voters with. This is BORING. There is no way that she is going to fire up her base over jobs.
Another link, just in case you don’t believe me. Also dated 06/17/2015.
Notice that Hillary was on the NORTH side of Charleston in the AFTERNOON, with the article posted at 2:46 PM EDT, and updated at 4:47 PM EDT.
Dylann Roof’s murders were THAT NIGHT – at 9:05 to 9:11 PM EDT. He had last modified his manifesto website at 4:44 PM EDT, presumably before leaving for Charleston, saying “at the time of writing I am in a great hurry.”
Roof apparently left Columbia at 6:13 PM EDT, per the lead FBI investigator, and arrived in Charleston around 7:45 PM. He walked into the Church around 8:16 PM, and walked out at 9:06 PM (some disagreement with numbers above are noted).
It is very interesting to read the Wikipedia entry for the shooting, and these words about James Comey from that entry:
Roof had a prior police record consisting of two arrests, for trespassing and drug possession, both made in the months before the attack.[56][57] According to then FBI DirectorJames Comey, a police report detailing Roof’s admission to a narcotics offense should have prevented him from purchasing the weapon used in the shooting. An administrative error within the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICBCS) excluded Roof’s admission (though not the arrest itself) from appearing on his mandatory background check.[58][59]
I simply have to wonder if Hillary had a bad meeting with Pinckney, or if Pinckney had actually stood up a meeting with Hillary. North Charleston was part of his political stomping ground, by the way.
Several commentators noted a similarity between the massacre at Emanuel AME and the 1963 16th Street Baptist Church bombing of a politically active African-American church in Birmingham, Alabama, where the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) killed four black girls and injured fourteen others, during the civil rights movement. This attack created support for federal civil rights legislation.[21][23]
But enough about this strange coincidence, at which point Hillary no longer had to give boring speeches about jobs for young millennials and black people – speeches that she knew damn well nobody would believe anyway.
The next point in the timeline is the next day. Hillary Clinton has LITERALLY left the scene of the crime, and is now in Las Vegas.
Just listen to Hillary’s speech.
It’s even more uncomfortable to watch her “telepromptering” from a distance in this version.
Something bothers me about this, but it’s subtle, so I’m going to let others figure it out themselves, and we’ll compare notes.
Now we move forward to the NPR interview with Hillary Clinton, where she began linking Roof to Trump, also on the 18th, and the media which picked it up on the 19th and 20th.
Note that Hillary didn’t use Trump’s name in her remarks, but made it extremely obvious who she was talking about, and the media then supplied Trump’s name in many of the headlines the next day.
This is the perfect example of the “wrap-up smear” that Nancy Pelosi spoke of so fondly. Only it’s worse, because it’s very clear to me that SOMEBODY backing Hillary Clinton killed a FLOCK OF BIRDS with ONE STONE.
removed the problem of Clementa Pinckney and other black leaders playing hard-to-get
sucked all the oxygen out of the Trump “escalator ride” entrance into the race
began attaching a VIOLENCE MEME to the Trump campaign from DAY TWO
began psychologically conditioning black voters on WHITE MALES AND GUNS
made it impossible for Bernie to win the support of South Carolina’s black bloc
opened up a cultural Marxist front on “Confederate statues”
created the Charleston precursor event for Charlottesville psychological operation
Oh, and don’t forget how JIM COMEY helped on the little “background check” accident.
Yeah. THAT Jim Comey.
Once one realizes what was going on here – how blacks were actually treated in this scenario – while the Democrat old-guard then sucked up to the survivors with their “who cares for you, baby” lines, in a way that matches up beautifully with Malcolm X and what happened to HIM when he stood up to the Democrat party – it’s not all that hard to understand why Q, the Oathkeepers, Dinesh D’Souza, and others with deep psychological insight on the Hillary Left, tend to view them as closer to Nazis than Bolsheviks. Indeed, this makes great historical sense – particularly if one views NATIONAL SOCIALISM as simply a watered-down and more “patriotically acceptable” version of INTERNATIONAL SOCIALISM.
But now for the grand finale. A FANTASTIC link with many images of the funeral of State Senator Clementa Pinckney, where Hillary Clinton, of course, shows up on 06/26/2015.
Here is just SOME of what Flep is seeing. This is all FLEP talking.

More and more evidence is coming out that shows the Establishment Democrats and MSM are petrified that Bernie Sanders will be the Democrat nominee. They will claim it is because Bernie can’t beat our President. That is not the number one motivating factor. It is the fact that the Democrat Party will belong to Bernie and his crazy disciples (AOC, Talib, Ilhan etc.) going forward.
The loss of power is what scares them the most.
DNC Members Discuss Changing Rules To Stop Sanders From Getting Nomination At Convention, Report Says | The Daily Wire https://t.co/xKA3F7ekVP
Members of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) have reportedly started discussing the implementation of a plan aimed at harming Democrat presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), a socialist, in hopes of derailing his campaign.
“In conversations on the sidelines of a DNC executive committee meeting and in telephone calls and texts in recent days, about a half-dozen members have discussed the possibility of a policy reversal to ensure that so-called superdelegates can vote on the first ballot at the party’s national convention,” Politico reported. “Such a move would increase the influence of DNC members, members of Congress and other top party officials, who now must wait until the second ballot to have their say if the convention is contested.”
Failed far-left Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein responded to Politico’s report by writing on Twitter: “Desperate DNC members consider rule change to let superdelegates vote on 1st ballot to stop Sanders. If the DNC rigs another election against its voters, it’ll be asking for biggest #DemExit yet by those who want an actually democratic party. #DNCRigging”
Dave Wasserman, U.S. House editor of the non-partisan Cook Political Report, wrote: “Yeah, this is going to end well.”
Another move to try and stop Bernie from becoming the nominee occurred the other day when the DNC changed their rules to assure Bloomberg being on the debate stage in a state he won’t even be on the ballot in.
The DNC drastically shifts debate requirements, opening the door for Bloomberg to join the stage starting in mid-Februaryhttps://t.co/vusk0JBTQS
The Democratic National Committee is drastically revising its criteria to participate in primary debates after New Hampshire, doubling the polling threshold and eliminating the individual donor requirement, which could pave the way for former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg to make the stage beginning in mid-February.
Candidates will need to earn at least 10 percent in four polls released from Jan. 15 to Feb. 18, or 12 percent in two polls conducted in Nevada or South Carolina, in order to participate in the Feb. 19 debate in Las Vegas. Any candidate who earns at least one delegate to the national convention in either the Iowa caucuses or New Hampshire primary will also qualify for the Nevada debate.
The new criteria eliminate the individual-donor threshold, which was used for the first eight debates, including next week’s debate in New Hampshire. Bloomberg, the self-funding billionaire, has refused to take donations from other individuals, which has thus far precluded his participation in any of the debates since he joined the race late last year.
Larry is absolutely right! The Democrats are screwed on both ends of the sword.
What they don't realize is that the "anyone other than Dinobernie" apocalypse will be equally bad when Bernie-ites stage a no-vote revolt. https://t.co/CRaMTpN6Vm
But it gets better, if you’re Bernie. Again, FLEP talking.

I truly believe that we are in the mist of watching the Democrat Party collapse right in front of our eyes. The 2020 Democrat Primaries are exposing that fact for us. The Democrats will have two parties coming out of the 2020 election. The Establishment Democrats and the Progressive/Socialist/Communist Democrats.
The problem for the Establishment Democrats and MSM is that they represent the old guard. The Progressive Democrats represent the new guard. By having the Progressive Democrats win the nominee will guarantee TRUMPISM reigning for the next 50+ years. There is no way that either party can beat the Trump Republican Party.
Bernie Sanders guarantees not only our President getting re-elected but he will win with over 350+ electoral votes and he will win the popular vote as well. He is a pure communist. Yes 30% of Americans love him and will vote for him. 55% of Americans LOVE our President and will vote for him.
The remaining 15% is what I consider the Establishment Democrats. Many will vote for our President or will sit out the election. Our President will not only win every state that he won in 2016, he will also win Virginia, Minnesota, New Mexico and New Hampshire. I also wouldn’t be surprised if he wins Nevada, Colorado and my long shot, Oregon.
Democratic donors and party insiders are warning that large swaths of their voters could stay home — or even defect to Trump — if Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders snags the nomination.
“I’ll still put a Bernie Sanders bumper sticker on my car, but a lot of people won’t,” said Jim Kessler, executive vice president for policy at Third Way, a Democratic think tank not aligned with any candidate. “They’ll say ‘I don’t like Donald Trump, but I don’t like Sanders either. We survived four years of Trump, maybe we’ll survive another four years.’ They’ll stay home, vote third party, or vote for Trump.”
With all that being said, the Establishment Democrats and MSM realize that Bernie is going to be the nominee.
It’s a tradition for The Des Moines Register to publish the final poll of the campaign season on the Sunday before the Iowa caucuses. Except this year, they refused to publish the results citing a “polling problem“.
The CNN/DMR cover story is that one pollster may have pronounced Buttigieg name incorrectly. The real reason…. Bernie has a big lead.
They even tried to float another balloon on Sunday. John POS Kerry sent out a tweet (which he deleted) before the Mullahs and the entire Iranian government could emphatically back his run.
John Kerry — one of Biden's highest-profile endorsers — overheard Sunday on phone at Des Moines hotel explaining what he would have to do to enter the presidential race amid "the possibility of Bernie Sanders taking down the Democratic Party— down whole." https://t.co/htAdgv5vaE
Former Secretary of State John Kerry — one of Joe Biden’s highest-profile endorsers — was overheard Sunday on the phone at a Des Moines hotel explaining what he would have to do to enter the presidential race amid “the possibility of Bernie Sanders taking down the Democratic Party — down whole.”
Sitting in the lobby restaurant of the Renaissance Savery hotel, Kerry was overheard by an NBC News analyst saying “maybe I’m f—ing deluding myself here” and explaining that in order to run, he’d have to step down from the board of Bank of America and give up his ability to make paid speeches. Kerry said donors like venture capitalist Doug Hickey would have to “raise a couple of million,” adding that such donors “now have the reality of Bernie.”
Biden’s top surrogate has no faith in Biden to beat Bernie? With friends like these … https://t.co/zJSlaAUnPQ
The fear is wonderful to watch! Even in the one state SleepyCreepy Joe is suppose to win, things are heading in the wrong direction for him, the Establishment Democrats and MSM.
“New South Carolina Poll is a Disaster for Joe Biden”
Joe Biden may have just received the worst news of his campaign, as a new poll shows his support in his firewall state of South Carolina collapsing along with his once-dominant support among black voters, with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Tom Steyer closing the gap.
Biden’s support in South Carolina had held steady all campaign season, and the hope was that it was strong enough to allow him to survive early defeats in Iowa and New Hampshire and pull off a big win ahead of Super Tuesday when the largest single-day haul of delegates is available. If the new Post and Courier-Change Research poll is right and his lead is evaporating, then it puts much more pressure on him to win either Iowa or New Hampshire.
While the poll shows Biden still in the lead, he’s at just 25%, with Sanders at 20% and Steyer (who has carpet-bombed the state with TV ads) at 18%. Biden once led in the poll by as high as 31 points.
Especially alarming for Biden is that he’s down to 30% support among black voters, who make up two-thirds of the South Carolina electorate and are a crucial voting bloc in the later states. Last summer, Biden captured half of black voters. Steyer is now at 24% among black voters, with Sanders at 16%.
California has 416 delegates up for grab on Super Tuesday. Biden once again is in a free fall.
Updated 2020 California Democratic Primary Polls + Spread + Average
Look at the decline of Joe Biden in California, one of the two big prizes on Super Tuesday March 3.
The other is Texas, where he's also in free fall while Bernie surges.

If you want a taste of where it went from here – to the caucuses in Iowa that were SABOTAGED by some sketchy defective app designed by HILLARY ASSETS (yes – can you believe it?), then check out Flep’s NEXT round-up!
Nevada Democrat party paid Shadow $58k in August & the Iowa Democrat party paid Shadow $63,183 in two payments over Nov & Dec, suggesting app wasn't developed until just months ago.
Shadow is a spin-off from PACRONYM, a New Democrat dark money/superPAC hybrid. pic.twitter.com/4URUwr68le
How convenient for @JoeBiden that not only was the Iowa Poll showing him in fourth place spiked but also him fighting @amyklobuchar for fourth place won’t dominate coverage for the next 48 hours.
Well, that was something else. I am trusting Flep on this. Bernie is appearing to be a BIGGER problem for the DNC than he was in 2015 and 2016. But worse still (for the DNC), we are already into 2016, and there is no “Bernie-killer” in sight. This isn’t like June of 2015, when the NUKE for Bernie had already been delivered in Charleston.
Now, Q
This is the CLINCHER. This is the question to ask yourself when it’s ALL OVER.
Look at it again. REMEMBER – it started the moment that Bernie holdout Clementa Pinckney died, and Hillary flew away to Las Vegas, to speak to that Latina organization.
Trump announced, and the operation to take him down began, taking out Bernie in the same stroke.
It is very simple – and Q keeps referring to it as the D-CON, because that is what it is – a CON JOB.
How the Division / Demoralization Circus Works
to skin type A, offer sympathy which requires acceptance of ideology and victimhood status
to skin type B, offer repentance which requires acceptance of ideology and victimizer status
secretly support real cross-type victimizers of both types, to create victims of both types
stoke mutual blame and recrimination, both publicly and secretly
ideology creates division through self-consciousness and required perception of difference
So how do we fight back? By understanding what they are doing, and not allowing it to complete.
“they want you divided” – spot their division memes and refuse to play along
“endless war” – spot the scams and refuse to get sucked in
“let’s you and him fight” – hit the “referee” instead of each other
“they are keeping you down on the farm” – don’t accept “one’s place”
“assertions of privilege” – refuse to accept or perform self-criticisms
“sweet lies with trade-offs” – just walk away
“societal rewards for accepting status” – refuse to accept either
“implicit superiorities in accusations” – accept NEITHER
The most important overall rule is simply NOT TO PLAY THEIR GAMES.
PUSH BACK.
YOU are not Dylann Roof.
And even more importantly, YOU are not one of the sick people who sent Dylann Roof to kill Reverend Clementa Pinckney, so that Hillary Clinton would be President of the United States.
But you might be somebody who will help me pick up the sword of justice, so that we can bring the “killers behind the killers” TO JUSTICE.
Part 3. Stopping The Race-Igniting Killers, And The Killers Behind The Killers, Who Use Violence And Psychological Trauma To Change Our Elections And Our Country. THE FUTURE.
Most people are utterly unable to “go there” and raise suspicions that Dylann Roof – who turned out to be SO politically useful to the Clinton Machine – was somehow PUSHED to do exactly WHAT HE DID, WHEN HE DID.
Hey – I have nothing to gain or lose. There are many things I know are FACTS that others simply don’t believe. I am happy to be there. Adding some strong suspicions that others see as “conspiracy theories” bothers me not in the slightest.
However, I believe that publishing these thoughts is going to INHIBIT the Clinton Machine and their dubious and dangerous allies from trying this sort of thing again. EVERY TIME they use these “MK Killers” to pull a job, they are closer to the WHOLE SHEBANG blowing up in their faces.
This is exactly why I posted this article. SUNSHINE makes people think twice about doing things that do NOT bear scrutiny.
Right now, the Clinton-Biden-Buttigieg-CIA Cabal “wing” of the DNC is clearly trying to take out Bernie using “unethical but not illegal” means. At some point, it’s going to be clear that they need stronger and not necessary legal means, where the “normal” litmus test of Democrat ethics will be applied – the question of “will we get caught?“
If people are WATCHING for the scam, it’s much less likely they will USE THE SCAM.
So let’s WATCH FOR THE SCAM.
However, watching for the scam is not enough.
This is where I need to give some LOVE TO THE ENEMY.
Yes. If you are a follower of Christ on this principle – no matter what your religion – then you can’t just sit there and say “good, good, good” while those lovably DUMB Bernie Bros fall into nasty traps, thereby making sure that our wonderful VSG has FOUR MORE YEARS.
FOR EXAMPLE – what about all those Bernie Bros who give people the impression that VIOLENCE is OK?
BREAKING: #Expose2020 Part IV: Two More @BernieSanders Staffers Radicalism EXPOSED; ‘Gulags and Kulaks Exaggerated’; “Make Plans For Extreme Action”; “Destroy Property” and “Abolish Landlords…So we Don’t Have to Kill Them”
I mean, it’s time to be really honest. The Clinton people tried to dump the “violence” rap on the TRUMP supporters, but if anybody out there has a problem with “pushable yahoos” – well, it’s gotta be the Bernie Bolsheviks.
The Gambino Family “QAnon Hit Man”? Spare me! That was CA3 and Reagan-Hinckley cover-up, I’m very certain. There was “Staten Island” and Gambino all over that one. Very bad hoax plus discreditation operation. A lot of internal Mafia hit, too.
Nope – a QAnon rap ain’t gonna stick, because it’s gonna be very obviously BOGUS.
Bernie is the guy who’s “at risk” here.
Most of these Bernista yahoos who are being busted by Project Veritas are really just embarrassing, mouthy, simplistic dopes. They are not only a problem for the left – they are EVERYWHERE – on the right AND the left. The Alt-Right is full of similar yahoos, with the same tattoos and piercings.
Mouthy yahoos who say dopey extremist things are not – in my opinion – significantly dangerous in a stable political environment like we live in now – meaning the TRUMP administration. These people DO BECOME MUCH MORE DANGEROUS under a socialist regime, like the Soviets or the Nazis, because they WILL carry out extreme, cold-blooded acts, when the STATE OR PARTY ASKS THEM. As long as the STATE is benign, and the PARTY is forced to be benign, THEY are – more or less – benign.
Thus, it is very legitimate for Project Veritas to “expose the Bolsheviks”. But they are not the really severe threat that I want to talk about. They are a slight danger to the possibility of Bernie winning the general election, but let’s be honest – THAT is already NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, in my opinion.
No – it is the Congressional baseball shooter – James Hodgkinson – and people like Dylann Roof – who are the real danger. These are the unstable boulders that can be pushed to roll down on the innocent at the right time and place, by unscrupulous intelligence agencies and others who are in possession of advanced tools descended from CIA’s MK ULTRA toolkit.
They can provide the PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA that shifts votes by DOUBLE DIGITS.
However, another disconnected mock-up / frame-up creation like Roof is NOT going to stop either Trump OR Bernie. NOPE. It will have to be another James Hodgkinson – somebody STRONGLY linked to Bernie – THAT is what can stop Bernie.
In my opinion, Bernie can protect himself against these sorts of dirty, bloody con jobs by engaging in the same kinds of preventative measures which have helped the Trump base STAY COOL. “Base pacification” is possible, and it’s a good thing.
COLD ANGER is the way to get hot-tempered people off the highly poisonous diet of hot anger.
From cold anger, LOVE isn’t that far away.
Will the Bernie Bros listen? Who knows. But even if they don’t, WE can watch out for them, because even though they may be across the political spectrum, WE can choose to be our brothers’ keeper.
Hey – we know ALL ABOUT being PUT DOWN by the HILLARY MACHINE.
Stay VIGILANT, my brothers and sisters. On everybody’s behalf.
I get an enormous amount of mail, email, texts, and flyers for Republican candidates. I think I must be on every list of every candidate in every state. From California to Maine, Florida to Alaska, I get mailings and urgent texts like I live there. The reason is that I am cursed to see the big picture.
If I want to live life the way I do now in WOLF JUNCTION, FO (the state of FLYOVER), I have to CARE about the politics of states I have never even visited – to say nothing of nearby states, states where I used to live, states where I will someday live, and state[s] where I do live right now.
SO, with that in mind, today (yesterday, whatever) I looked down at my small electronic device, and saw a FAMILIAR NAME, asking for help. Funny, my immediate urge was TO HELP. And while my means of helping with money are somewhat limited, I do have something else – a BLOG on which I can ramble incoherently about one thing or another.
So please – indulge me while I ramble.
One of the most remarkable things about our Very Stable Genius, President Donald J. Trump, is that he has made moderate Republican politics about the edgiest thing in town. Personally, I take this as PROOF that the man is a certifiable genius, because nobody should technically be able to do this. It’s like making people watch BRIDGE instead of BREAKING BAD. And yet, he did it. It’s remarkable. Absolutely remarkable.
How did he do this?
Complicated business.
So I find it absolutely shocking, when I now realize that the moderate Republican who I used to support – John Kasich – has now been completely replaced by a DIFFERENT moderate Republican who I now support – Susan Collins – based on the simple fact that one of them gets the brilliant strategy of a third moderate Republican – DONALD J. TRUMP – and the other does not.
Trump Gravity is an amazingly funny thing. It just throws people around this way and that, but after a while, it really makes sense. All this stuff he said in his books – it makes sense. Watching the man – it’s like Trump University – it all makes sense – and it’s FREE.
However, sometimes you just have to cut past all the complications, and just speak the obvious truth. “This thing here is pulling on that thing there, and it made it all move THAT-A-WAY.”
When I looked down at my small device, and I saw the name Susan Collins, I remembered one thing above all. When it could very well have cost this woman her seat in the Senate, she stood up for a guy named Brett Kavanaugh, simply because it was the RIGHT THING TO DO.
Not only that – in doing so, she stood with President Trump – not always the most popular thing with the Democrat Fake News Media, upon whose good graces she DEPENDS much more than many other politicians.
This is not the only time she supported President Trump when it would have been very easy to make a virtue signal to the center by automatically opposing him – say – on IMPEACHMENT. She is ALREADY looking like she will NOT be railroaded by the left or the media on impeachment.
And then there was when she vigorously SUPPORTED JEFF SESSIONS FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Yeah, it’s possible to entertain theories of “Deep State Sessions”, with “Deep State Collins” supporting him, but look at the VOTE NUMBERS on Sessions’ appointment, as Q says. It was 52 to 47. Deep State Sessions? YEAH, RIGHT. Look at how hard the leftists tried to smear Sessions on RACE. Look at how they BOXED HIM IN with the FAKE RUSSIAN COLLUSION HOAX.
It is worth reading the rest of this document, to see just how impressive Jeff Sessions really is. There is a REASON that this lady supported Jeff Sessions. She can SPOT THE GOOD ONES – just like she did with Kavanaugh.
One of the most INTERESTING times that Susan Collins really impressed me, was during the “Russian Election Interference” hearings held by the Senate. There was mucho grandstanding by EVERYBODY involved. But in the middle of all that sound and fury, signifying nothing but a DEMOCRAT PLOT, Susan Collins asked the good lady from DHS, Jeanette Manfra, a VERY subtle and perceptive question about organizational technical responsibility for cyber tools determining specifics about attacks – and it was NOT DHS.
This changed everything for me, and basically CRACKED THE CASE. Susan Collins had gotten past Brennan’s “responsibility-casting” dodge, in the same way that Elise Stefanik managed to get past Comey’s carefully hidden bypassing of counter-intelligence head Bill Priestap, while leaving Priestap holding the bag on Spygate.
NOBODY NOTICED what Susan Collins did – well, except maybe guys like Nunes and others who were trying to figure out what was really going on.
So, I appreciate this woman. Even though she sometimes does and says stuff that drives me nuts.
Now I’m not saying this lady is never going to make me want to spit nails again, for being a waffly squish on this or that. I’m sure she will. Nobody makes bipartisanship as PAINFUL as Susan Collins, with the FAKE NEWS MEDIA hanging on her every word, looking for SOME NEW WAY to use it against President Trump, conservatives, or Republicans in general.
However, even if there were no other reason than the following, my feeling is that Susan Collins holds a Republican seat in a state that could easily be dragged into solid blueness, and she does so by “being Susan Collins”. And what does that mean for us? This lady holding a seat that, against many odds, she shouldn’t?
It means WINNING on key issues and votes.
And most of all, for me, it meant this.
A GOOD MAN – much like Jeff Sessions – was appointed to a post he deserved, in spite of a world of anger, hatred, and LIES raised up against him.
I don’t expect everybody to agree with me. Heck – Wolf Moon from a few years ago doesn’t agree with me on this one. If you feel differently about supporting Susan Collins, no problem. I respect your honest difference of opinion, in a very Collins-like way.
However, I will make one last point – a kind of extrapolation about what Trump teaches on “revenge” as he calls it, but which I prefer to think of as BASIC JUSTICE and TRUTH IN DEALINGS.
The FLIP SIDE of remembering when people are DISLOYAL, and don’t deserve our continued support when they come and ask for it, is that we need to remember when people are LOYAL, so that they ABSOLUTELY CAN get our support when they NEED IT.
This strikes home for me, because it really tells the tale of how I ended up over at CTH, as a TRUMP SUPPORTER seeking shelter at a TRUMP BASTION, before we all came here with Q.
I was all over Disqus and Breitbart for years, under Obama. I knew that we HAD to STOP the Obama insanity, soon to become Hillary insanity, in 2016, or we were in real trouble. And I was absolutely unsure WHICH Republican presidential hopeful was the one to END the Prog-Nazi insanity that we were all slowly marching toward.
I was probably behind EVERY one of the GOP presidential hopefuls for at least 30 minutes, some for 30 hours, and a few for 30 days or more. Significant among them:
Rand Paul
Ted Cruz
Ben Carson
John Kasich
I even had a few flirtations with Carly Fiorina until learning about her strong CIA associations, and “feelings” toward Marco Rubio, until I realized that he was being strongly manipulated by others (neocon pool-boy). I tried to talk myself into “acceptance” of Jeb Bush a few times, as a feasibility test, and I learned to love Chris Christie as he warmed up to Trump.
However, it was TRUMP who stole my affections from the four listed above, and from TED CRUZ most of all. TED actually stayed on top of my list for quite a while, until Trump came along. Indeed, speaking up nicely but a bit too strongly for TRUMP got me kicked off of The Right Scoop. Imagine that.
Ultimately, I agree with Sundance – only Trump had the special street smarts to get past the cunning communists.
ANYWAY….
We have all been through a lot of fascinating shared history with Trump. But I think it’s time for me to quote myself on this, for the very first time:
Get used to it. Trump speed is the new normal. Some will call it flip-flopping, but that’s not what it is. Trump is dodging and weaving through reality faster than the reality can react to disrupt his plans.
I was explaining this to my wife. This is a roller-coaster now. Trump is no longer waiting for people to keep up. He is taking his bewildering art-of-the-deal campaign schtick into geopolitics, and for a lot of people who can’t keep up or hold on, it will be a rough ride.
[…]
They can’t keep up, either.
Neither can many around him. I think that half of the problem with advisers crashing into each other is they don’t realize what Trump is doing.
And people will trash you, and they will trash me. Get used to it. I’ve already caught plenty of people mocking me. Well, just wait a week in Trump time. Look stupid and conned by Trump one minute, and you look like a sage three days later.
[…]
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
[…]
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!” 😀
