My Thoughts on Reality

 I like Donald Trump as POTUS, and I despise Joe Biden. I think that sums up 51% of American voters at this time. The Biden administration is like the stench of an outhouse used by smokers with diarrhea in July.

But I guarantee that Trump is going to stink a bit too - he just isn't on the throne yet. There is campaign Trump and POTUS Trump. I'm not saying Trump is phony like Obama & Biden, because he is not, but I am saying that we need to begin to steel ourselves for reality.

Trump has assembled the best team I've seen since I started voting (Jimmy Carter over Gerald Ford). They are talented but naive. Or perhaps we are naive - still giddy from the victory.

The "swamp" is still in place. The swamp didn't dry up because Trump won, in fact the swamp is more powerful than ever in part because of demented Biden's "fuck you America" actions in his final months. What a shit stain in America's undies..

My prediction is pretty simple, not scientific, based on my gut and is two time intervals - 4 and 20 years. Trump has about a 20% chance of affecting major change in the function of the US government in 4 years. That number increases to 50% at 20 years.

The fight with the swamp will be terrible and will likely destroy much of Trump's team. Senate Republicans, (50% of the swamp), are not going to quietly give up Pharma and Defense industry money, nor will they forgo reelection by fighting the various Federal employee unions. It is not evident to me that Trump has someone on his staff capable of coordinating the attack on the swamp. A frontal attack is suicidal.

However, there are some vulnerable Federal agencies that can be whacked or shuffled. They make up the 20%. Since 80% of an agency's budget is payroll, ( and harder than hell to layoff Federal employees), it is very unlikely that Trump can realize the $2 trillion reduction identified by DOGE. But maybe they will claw back some savings. At least a couple hundred pages of regulations will die.

At the end of 4 years Trump will be spent, Musk will have ships on Mars, Vivek will be helping his children with high school homework, and Tulsi's hair will be snow white. They will have attempted much, accomplished little, but changed the course of the very large ship America.

The course change will slowly set a new direction for America over the next 20 years. There are a number of "Trumps" waiting in the wings of the Republican party. The Democrats have yet to figure out how to get back to center, so I think they will struggle for another election cycle. And when they purge the Democrat party of the leftist loons, their new found centrism will continue the course set by MAGA - perhaps improving.

4 years bloody and bruised. 20 years a revived world leadership. Sober up folks.

Cannonball into the swamp

 The biggest obstacle to Trump's agenda is not the US House crazies. The Nancy Pelosi obstruction of Trump's first term will not happen.

The problem is the Senate, particularly Senate Republicans. These creatures ARE the swamp. This is the wannabe ruling class power brokers who have much to lose from Trump's team running roughshod over the Federal bureaucracy.

The first indication of trouble came with the election of S. Dakota Senator Thune. The man does not have the backbone or smarts to whip his Senate colleges into compliance. He's already caved on recess appointments. Thune is certainly better than the reptile Senator John Cornyn, but he's a far cry from MAGA supporter Senator Rick Scott.

The Senate majority leader election showed that the Senate Republicans don't want much to change. Is that a problem? I think so because a chunk of  the Biden legislation needs to be repealed. E.g. do you really want your next car to have a backdoor kill switch that authorities can use whenever without a warrant or due process? These are the same idiots that fired people for not getting vaxed, locked down schools, etc. Well that backdoor kill switch was mandated by Brandon, although I doubt he knew it.

What about the very obvious changes needed to the FDA? Do you think the non-MAGA Senate reptiles are going to give up all that Big Pharma money just because Robert Kennedy says so?

Gonna be a rough couple years IMO.

Future Cat Ladies

 Trump has won, the sun feels ever so warm, the fall colors are beautiful. "I'm thinking to myself - what a wonderful world"

But for those who were heavily invested in a Harris victory, the world is a black & white dystopia where they live in fear that the Orcs of Mordor will soon overtake them.

I recently read "The Parasitic Mind" by Gad Saad that provided pretty good arguments for Trump Derangement Syndrome, the woke mind virus, and the brainwashing than occurs when you submit yourself to a constrained information bubble. It made me consider my "bubble".

The wailing and gnashing of teeth on X by Harris supporters was funny for awhile. After a day though, it ceased to be humorous and it seemed as though I was watching the mentally ill - not funny at all.

Worst of all are the young women punishing Trump supporting men by not dating and withholding sex. I guess this is where their mal-educated views of human behavior are going to get a wake up - their clocks will keep ticking. Time is not on their side.

Meanwhile I'm thinking of investing in pet food stocks - especially cat food.

My Bubble

 I'm anxious about the election. I can't imagine Trump losing, but I know that a lot of libtards aren't voting for Harris as much as not Trump. TDS is very real.

I remember the 2022 midterms. I was shocked at how well the Democrats did even with Biden's abject failures, dementia,  and policies. The country appeared to be rejecting the woke mind virus, yet far-left liberals did quite well. PA voters elected a stroke victim who couldn't understand speech. I remember well the feeling that I didn't understand the mood of the country.

Here I am in 2024, days from an important election. Harris is obviously in over her head and electing her means you're OK with a puppet for 4 years. Trump, oth, is Trump - a tried and true leader. This time he has organized the "avengers" - a team of highly talented people to help him get his administration off to a good start. The choice should be clear. Should be..

I am guilty of blaming our country's woes on GenZ, but that is part of my bubble.

I think that I'm in a bubble partially of my own making. A bubble bias reinforced by X, YouTube and my extended circle. And I may be shocked at the outcome of this election.

I've already walked away from Facebook and Instagram. I never pay attention to the legacy media. I view TikTok as a Chinese psyop tool pointed at GenZ and avoid it. But I have put in the screen time on X, and it has algorithms too.

I know the sun will rise and set even if shit-for-brains Harris wins - life will go on. But I am thinking about my bubble.

Election season burnout

 The election is over - Trump has won.

I'm so tired of sifting through the pseudo-news looking for meaningful tidbits. Sometimes it seems like I'm panning gold in the outflow of a 55" sewer pipe.

The MainStream Media (ABC,CBS,CNN,NBC,MSNBC) has been working overtime to praise Kamala in the Whitehouse. She hasn't said or done anything to change her dismal pre-candidacy polling - the only thing that has changed is the liberal media coverage. Worked for awhile, but voters are starting to get serious, and Kamala is not a serious choice.

I know there are a lot of people who occupy the left side of the IQ distribution who will vote "not Trump", but they are aren't enough alone to elect her. Not even if we include the usual Democrat cheat factor. I do remember the 2022 midterms and I'm sure the "stupidest generation" (GenZ) will choose Kamala's "joy". PT Barnum has a quote about that.

So Trump is in. Normal people can rejoice. Rational people can breath a sigh of relief.

RFK's Endorsement of Trump

 I listened to the entire 45 minute speech.

 Now I understand why Robert Kennedy's supporters are so ardent and why the "seething liberal darkness" (DNC and media) worked so hard to keep him muzzled.

RFK is a combination of intellect, courage, patriotism, focus and discipline - way beyond anything the Democrats have currently.

Trump is smart, but lacks depth. Trump is brave and could've made a good UFC fighter in his youth. Trump loves America, no doubt. Trump is focused. Trump likes to "riff" during speeches - and they run too long. And ultimately, (pardon my French), a lot of the Government is fucked way beyond one man's repair - Trump needs an army of folks to get things done.

I agree wholeheartedly with RFK about Ukraine, the money influence in the FDA, NIH, CDC, and the very obvious children's health crisis. I loved how he pushed climate change to the side. I had to Google "Mitochondrial diseases" to understand his concern - and I learned something (very rare in political speeches).

I hope RFK's endorsement puts Trump in the Whitehouse. And I hope President Trump can use RFK maximally.

Glad I listened to the full speech instead of the 20 second snippet and smear done by CNN (a pox be upon them).

The disgusting media ignorance of Islam

 https://sites.google.com/site/hobbyhintstricksideas/home/islam-class

The above is a very straightforward overview of Islam. I put this together in 2007, so some details are dated and Hamas is not covered. If you peruse this material you'll be ahead.

Right now, the British libtards are rounding up and prosecuting white people who are protesting the British government's immigration policy of allowing Muslims in and not forcing Muslims to integrate into British society. If you want an example of "fascism" this is it.

I will say this as plainly as possible: Muslims from the impoverished middle east are not capable of participating in Western democracy

Basically any strain of Islam influenced by the Hanbalite school of law is incompatible with Western democracy. These Muslims will not integrate, they will not obey non-Sharia law, and many will heed the call to strike "the Great Satan' (the US).

We have had a number of mass killings in the US carried out by Muslims. Even Britain, with it's restrictive laws, has suffered a number of mass stabbings - by Muslims.

The media is soooo stupid, (or DEI blind), that they don't realize someone can become a muslim in an instant and be "radicalized" (called up to jihad). We've seen it happen with white American males and it is very common with those from the middle east. The 17 year old who killed the girls was prime to be "converted" and given a mission.

"From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli" goes the Marines theme. The US has been battling Islam for over 200 years. But there are generations now that have never been taught this.

I understand the desire to help out the "have nots", but just like with Afghanistan, Americans need to understand that these people are "have not" because of Islam and they will never change.
