Why A Liberal Jew Voted For Trump

      Comments Off on Why A Liberal Jew Voted For Trump

Evan Sayet was a liberal Jew.  After 9-11 he became a conservative thinker and recently wrote the following when he realized how off base the left was:

Trump’s ‘lack of decorum, dignity, and statesmanship’   

My Leftist friends (as well as many ardent #NeverTrumpers) constantly ask me if I’m not bothered by Donald Trump’s lack of decorum. They ask if I don’t think his tweets are “beneath the dignity of the office.”

Here’s my answer: We Right-thinking people have tried dignity. There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency. ...

Brexit

      Comments Off on Brexit

There has been an interesting development on the other side of “the pond” which is the English way of referring to the Atlantic Ocean.  For more than two years the British government under Theresa May had been trying to come up with a plan to exit the European Union (EU). Most of this action under Theresa May appears to have been a stalling action.  The pols hoped that at some point the British would lose interest and the fact that the voting population had spoken out in favor of leaving the EU would disappear into history.

The fact that the Brits had voted for Brexit was as surprising as PDJT winning the Presidency here.  The polls had all shown that Brexit would go down to defeat.  Supposedly there was little chance it would pass.  The polls were wrong again.

Stalling eventually cost Theresa May her job.  The people were not happy that the UK was still in the EU.  Boris Johnson’s Party achieved a majority around the idea that he would complete the process including, if needed, a “no-deal” Brexit.

Hurricanes & Global Warming

      Comments Off on Hurricanes & Global Warming

CNN, the Counterfeit News Network, continued in their role as a propaganda arm of the Left. With Hurricane Dorian reaching monstrous size and strength, Ana Cabrera, a journalist who pretends to be a news anchor, accused Peter Gaynor (FEMA) of sidestepping the issue of global warming making hurricanes more dangerous. Gaynor had been interviewed by a different person in another segment.

Keep in mind that Gaynor refused to agree with the host of the show he was on. However, Cabrera states via slides shown on TV, ...

Happy Labor Day!

      Comments Off on Happy Labor Day!

Today we celebrate Labor Day in America.  In 2019 we have much to celebrate.  Under PDJT we have seen the labor force swell to numbers never before seen in America.  Unemployment rates are at the lowest levels in more than 50 years.  Unemployment rates among minorities are at historic lows.

Jobs are going begging in some areas.  Companies are posting signs along the roadways by their buildings advertising their open positions.  Signing bonuses have showed up in some industries particularly trucking.  Wages are increasing at rates not seen in a long time.  At the same time inflation has remained low.  This means more money in the pockets of Americans.

Dorian Alert

Everyone on the east coast of Florida pay attention!

The eye-wall of hurricane Dorian now carries 185 mph winds outward 45 miles from center.  It cannot be overstated how dangerous this storm has become.  Very few structures can withstand winds of that scale for any prolonged duration of time.

This is a ‘topography changing’ event.

At 200 PM EDT (1800 UTC), the extremely distinct eye of Hurricane Dorian was located near latitude 26.5 North, longitude 77.1 West. Dorian is moving toward the west near 7 mph (11 km/h). A slower westward motion should continue for the next day or two, followed by a gradual turn toward the northwest.. The hurricane should move closer to the Florida east coast late Monday through Tuesday night. ...

Beto Bans The Press

“If we don’t have a free press, if we cannot make informed decisions at the ballot box, if we can’t hold people like me accountable, and make sure that we’re held honest to the promises that we made, to the job that we’re performing in these positions of public trust, we’ll lose the essence of our democracy.”

This is really good stuff.  That is, if the person who made this proclamation really meant it.  Who said this?  Beto O’Rourke, the Mexican Irishman running for President, at an MSNBC town hall forum last year. ...

Why Is Biden Running?

      Comments Off on Why Is Biden Running?

Joe Biden criticizes Trump’s Iran strategy as a self-inflicted disaster while his opponents take advantage of Biden’s own gaffes.

As we all know, Joe Biden is running for President.  Why?  The Democrats appear to be pinning their hopes on someone whose mental acuity appears to be substantially diminished from what it was just a few years ago.  And Biden had problems then.  Biden actually appears to be less mentally agile than Robert Mueller when Mueller appeared before Congress recently.  And Mueller appeared lost at times during those hearings. What the Democrats accomplished during those hearings was to disgrace a man in front of the whole country.  What are they trying to accomplish with Biden? ...
