From the beginning, it has been obvious that the FBI and the Democrats sincerely believed they had the goods on Trump, that he was guilty of something or other, had to be guilty of something or other, even though they were never clear in their own minds of exactly what. And from the beginning, it has been obvious that the FBI and the Democrats did not have the goods on …

State of the Union Speech
Trump gave a great speech, in which he re-affirmed his campaign promises, not yet kept, to end the forever war and build the wall, Wealthy politicians and donors push for open borders while living their lives behind walls, and gates, and guards. Meanwhile working class Americans are left to pay the price for mass illegal immigration reduced jobs lower wages overburdened schools hospitals that are so crowded you can’t get …
State of Emergency coming up.
Trump is readying a state of emergency to build and fund the wall without congressional approval. He has already been building and funding the wall without congressional approval, but a state of emergency would arguably make it legal. The Democrats are going to scream in pain that this is a dire threat to rule by the permanent government of law and democracy. Which it is. There are already a thousand …
White pill on the shutdown and wall
The Ann Coulter black pill is that Trump is going to cuck out, and the wall is not going to be built. Nuts! The wall is being built. Trump just wants a fig leaf to make building it legal. Obamacare was never legally passed: House passed one version, Senate passed another version, reconciliation produced a third version, none of them workable, so Obama took legislative, judicial, and fiscal authority into …
Election outcome
I am disappointed and surprised that we did not see a red wave. But the loss of the house changes little. Trump did not have a majority of Trump Republicans before the election and he now has a slightly larger minority of Trump Republicans. And in any case, the house has had no real power since FDR. With better control of the Senate, Trump can get judges and appointments through …
The right wins in Brazil
If we are lucky, this will be the last Brazilian election in a very long time. Bolsanaro is more Trump than Trump is. The White House has confirmed that US president Donald Trump called Jair Bolsonaro on Sunday night to congratulate him on his election victory. White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders says that Trump congratulated the president-elect and that “both expressed a strong commitment to work side-by-side to improve the …
The coalition of the evil and unhinged
People form political coalitions within a larger society in order to knock over apple carts to grab some apples. That is what politics is. That is why people use “political” as a negative word. Because it is a negative thing. The left is not the largest coalition. The left is whatever coalition is largest. Whatever happens to be the supposed coalition issues at any given time is unclear, arbitrary, and …
Angry mob meme
The Democrats are an angry mob of crazy vicious moral degenerates. Trump: “You don’t hand matches to an arsonist, and you don’t give power to an angry left-wing mob. Democrats have become too EXTREME and TOO DANGEROUS to govern. Republicans believe in the rule of law – not the rule of the mob.” Well, then, if the other party is an angry mob, democracy cannot really continue. Democracy relies on …
God Emperor beats Democrats at 4D chess
Time and time again Trump does supposedly stupid stuff, supposedly demonstrating what an ignorant stupid buffoon he is, and then, strangely and mysteriously, wins. The explanation for this strange mystery is that he is playing the game at a level his enemies do not understand, playing a different game by different rules to that which his enemies are aware of. Recent events need to be understood in terms of the …
Can’t stump the Trump
Naturally the world press attempted to frame this as Trump taking a humiliating beating like an errant schoolboy. But … But the frame fell off with Trudeau’s eyebrows. Trump targeted Trudeau in particular, not because of anything he said, that was just an excuse, but because the Canadian economy is the most vulnerable to a tariff war with the United States. The fake eyebrows were a visible manifestation of less …
