The race hustle is over - Adam Carolla

[Foxfyre]

And in this thread, we see displayed the reason democrats are having trouble gaining the traction with the voting public they apparently think is due them simply because they exist. Looking at the responses from the usual suspects on here, it would appear that they believe the way to win votes and convince people that democrats are the party for which to vote is to insult and demonize those very voters.

The rest of us think that's a stupid way to do it, but you guys do you.

And I have perhaps been guilty of some of that with my observations that those pushing the 'Woke' cult are devoid of intellectual honesty, ethics, principles, integrity. But I honestly believe that too. I would bet at least a cup of coffee and a donut that the member(s) accusing us of misogyny and racism because we didn't vote for Kamala didn't bother to listen to any of the commentary in the video linked in the OP.

Most Americans don't want higher taxes and irresponsible, wasteful spending by their government
Most Americans don't want their liberties, choices, options, opportunities restricted
Most Americans don't want endless wars
Most Americans don't want to be overrun by millions of migrants many who are dangerous
Most Americans don't want their children to be exposed to vulgar, sexually explicit language and entertainment or in parades or that included in school curriculum.
Most Americans believe it is wrong to surgically mutilate children or give them harmful hormones and strongly resent government telling them they have to allow that.
Most Americans want policies that improve all their lives or make it easier for them to improve their lives themselves instead of gratuitous handouts to this or that group.
The vast majority of Americans approve of near 100% of the MAGA agenda even if they won't say so because they don't like Trump.

And obviously the majority of Americans--that would be all still capable of critical thinking and actual policy positions--rejected a Kamala Harris who promoted almost everything they hate at age 55 and didn't buy that she magically switched all those positions when she was 60 just to fool people into electing her. Kamala was not elected because she was a dishonest candidate who actually wanted to promote many things the American people reject.

I am very VERY confident that once a qualified female candidate runs for President who the majority of people see as qualified, honest, properly focused on what the people want, the vast majority of Americans would have no problem voting for her. But what the Democrats have been trying to sell the American people are not what the vast majority of Americans want.

Remember when whites were to racist to vote for the Kenyan?

What I remember is that white people completely lost their shit when Obama was elected, even though he did a pretty good job.

Fine. Show me in the budget what you want to cut and put a dollar number behind it.

Given most of the budget is Medicare, Social Security, Defense and interest on the debt, you just aren't going to be able to find all that much to cut.

Guy, I've shown you lots of reasons why she was superior to Trump, but since you have drunk deeply of the bleach, what is the point.

You guys have to pretend that Trump's first term wasn't an unmitigated disaster- Plague, wildfires, mass unemployment, riots.

Trump looks good if you ignore everything he screwed up and give him credit for situations he inherited.




Then he shouldn't have been in charge of that company. But Trump only hires the best people. Except the ones that run his businesses into the ground. And everyone he appointed to his first cabinet since he's asked none of them to return this time.



which laws did "they" specifically rewrite.

Damn you really can not discuss anything with real intellectual thought.
The only thing you have done is she was a woman. You have not quoted anything she did or was willing to do.
I have to give you credit for dragging up the bleach bull. It shows just how much you have to dig.
The fact you have to point to a plague and wildfires even democrat riots shows just how little you have. Things no one has any control of.
I get it you do not like Trump. Duh. I am not a fan of Trump but I understand that I can choose between bad and terrible and I do not have to choose based on gender or lies feed by bad news sources.

 

[Maxdeath]

The lefty meltdown continues...

The fool actually thinks that anyone can decide when a wildfire or a plaque breaks out. You have to feel sorry for someone like that

". . .Military contractors, which now receive over half of the Pentagon’s annual budget, have long been criticized for over-billing and inefficiency. According to the Costs of War Project, the heavy reliance on private contractors exacerbates systemic waste. A 2015 Pentagon report, buried by department officials, identified $125 billion in administrative waste. The findings were hidden to avoid justifications for defense budget cuts. . ."

Out of $7 trillion spent by the current administration in four years, nobody yet has been able to point to a single thing accomplished with all that money to improve the lives/quality of life of Mr. and Mrs. John Doe. Nobody can tell me the only place to cut is Social Security and Medicare. That's what the DOGE will be addressing in the next four years.

And now can we please return to the OP and why Kamala lost the election? (Hint: the above is definitely one of the reasons given her and Joe's assertion that she was included and on board with all the decision making.)

If Trump can't control the problems or even show effective leadership, then what is the point of electing him?

Yes, no one can prevent a plague, but how Trump reacted to it compared to other countries was pretty bad, it's why we had 4% of the world's population and 25% of the Covid Deaths when Trump left.

Okay, the reason why the military is so dependent on contractors now is because they can't get 18 year olds to sign up for those service and support roles.

Shit, we've seen what lowering the standards does... you get guys like Bergdhal, Manning, Teixeira.

Right. He'll do for the government what he did for Twitter!

Of that 7 Trillion
1.35 Trillion spent on Social Security
0.839 Trillion spent on MEdicare
0.813 Trillion spent on Defense
0.892 Trillion on the interest of the national debt.
0.860 Trillion on Medicaid

So given that most of that is pretty much fixed (and in fact will continue to go up as more old people retire) you already have 4.7 Trillion that you can't really touch.

And now can we please return to the OP and why Kamala lost the election? (Hint: the above is definitely one of the reasons given her and Joe's assertion that she was included and on board with all the decision making.)

Nope. She lost because
1) Misogyny
2) Racism
3) She really didn't have enough time to build a following, tapping in for Biden at the last minute.

Now, I will be the first to admit, that the gaslighting of the American people to think their lives were just horrible when they really weren't worked.

Misery is what we had in 2020, but you all forgot about it.

Ignoring the chopped up post, but noting the figures cited: Now, how much of those billions and trillions are wasted, unnecessary/wrongly allocated, unaccounted for, or siphoned off in graft? Do you know? I am pretty much 100% positive the amount is a lot. Trump is on the record that he intends to take nothing from Social Security and Medicare beneficiaries. But taking out the graft, inefficiency, mismanagement, unnecessary requirements of both could do wonders to shore up and protect those programs.

Yeah, I've been hearing that sort of "Waste, Fraud, and Abuse" stuff since I was a Supply Sergeant in the Army. Reagan was president, but the spending kept going up and up.

And you know, what, it never changes. As long as you have human beings, you will have inefficiencies and even a little graft.

That dog just won't hunt. Sure, you can tighten up processes. I just don't see the guy who ran business failure after business failure to be the guy to do it.

Trump Airlines
The USFL
Trump Steaks
Trump Vodka
Trump University

These are not well-run ventures... they are ones that failed and lost money.

But not to worry, he's getting a Fox News Host on that problem at the Pentagon, that should do it.

 

[Mac-7]

Just trolling you for a lack of Leftists on this board ever since their Princess lost.

Carry on.

Well done

What you remember is maybe a handful of racists who went nuts, and you probably had to look for them. I saw no one who did. But then again, maybe the Capital of the Confederacy just isn't a racist area.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Nobody is interested in the opinion of Spanky Ham.

Guy, you are reading way too much into 49.9% because Hispanics and Asians were too misogynistic to vote for a woman.

And you're doing exactly what cost you the election. Keep going. The Republicans appreciate your support.

 

[hadit]

And you're doing exactly what cost you the election. Keep going. The Republicans appreciate your support.

They do seem to think the best way to court voters is to insult and denigrate them.

 

[drudge X]

Absolutely.

My wife showed me an email that circulated in the Asian Community that used all sorts of vile, misogynistic language towards Harris. And this was circulated by a PASTOR.

I don't think Harris was a perfect candidate, but she was light-years ahead of the convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and failed former president.

This isn't news. Asians and blacks don't like each other. The hate is mutual. You don't expect Asians to embrace blacks when blacks said nothing about Asians who were racially targeted by blacks now do you?

Is that what you remember? A lot of things were done behind the scenes that has caused misery today. Obama was a protege of the New World Order. One of a group of potential candidates. He actually moved us further left than they really expected and perhaps wanted to. Clinton was the same. W. was the same. George Sr. was the same. Dole was the same. Even if a leader is not part of it the leader and others are forced to follow what has been pushed as other politicians already sold out. We will see if Trump is. I believe he is not.

 

[22lcidw]

The Man Show. Kimmel and Carolla. Kimmel sure did not do the Progressive Socialist act in that program.

A common sense explanation of why Trump won

But can libs learn from their mistakes?

You stopped watching at 19 minutes and 52 seconds when you sent it to us, huh?
