Regarding the reasons why people didn’t vote in the 2024 election… I guess you would qualify for the category “ too inconvenient to vote”, right?

This. I've generally leaned toward Chris's side on most of the controversial discussions on this forum, but the not voting floored me. Appreciate the transparency, but claiming "too busy to vote" was, frankly, unconscionable.

Tommy the Traitor Tuberville is, hands down, the dumbest member of the Senate. Someone should read the Constitution to him since he's obviously incapable of doing it himself.

Can we please put a fork in the narrative that so called Republicans are "conservative". There are no Republicans. There are very few conservatives. MAGA has feasted on those folks for 8 years, and all that is left is the carcass.

If Ronald Reagan was alive today he'd be denounced as a "RINO."

“The carcass” - such an apt description!

Pregunta: Could the “Bullet Ballot” drop off(s) in Two (2) Key Western “Swing States” throw the recent #Presidential-election to #Harris?

Respuesta:

Arizona (AZ) 123K = 7.2% of Trump’s total vote. That alone is enough to reverse the outcome of the election.

Nevada (NV) 043K = 5.5% of Trump’s total vote. #Ditto.

As we approach the January 2025 #Inauguration-date, no doubt the pressure will ratchet up for #Joe to confirm these findings in order to keep #Trump OUTTA the country’s business … For good!

Please give details on this bullet ballot issue. Thank you.

You’ll have to engage the underlying author (“Mr. Spoonamore”) via the given link at his mailbox here at #Substack for further details that he may have uncovered since the publishing date of his original article. For sure, it’s the candidate’s legal team and legal expense fund that will have to challenge the ruling in order to obtain a “grant of stay” to the certification process pending final resolution of the apparent very blatant anomalies uncovered by Mr. Spoonamore’s superior intelligent sleuthing team.

Please don't encourage the nonsense. People can't mock the "Stop the Steal" nuts for 4 years and then when our side loses, hop over the fence and become "Stop the Steal" nuts. It's the height of hypocrisy to whine only when your candidate loses.

I ‘m not whining, and I accept the results of the election. I’m simply wondering if “bullet ballots” are real. I have the right to ask.

There was a professor from Cincinnati who said he had done a statistical analysis and said he had statistical proof that there was fraud in 2020. His field wasn’t statistics. A group graduate students at Stanford disproved all his analysis in 20 minutes

Lindell, the pillow guy, is practically bankrupt. He offered one million to anyone who could prove the information on his tapes was fake. He lost the one million and refuses to pay it

Tell Mr Spoonamore not to make the same bet

I’ll bet George Santos charged him good money to write his resume

Thanks so much!

Covid drop boxes. Cmon man this isn’t hard to figure out. Drop a bunch of ballots off at 2 AM. Certainly can’t prove it, wasn’t there in the middle of the night, but no one can argue that was a unique situation. None of that this time. It all works out! Pop your popcorn, President Trump is coming to town! 😎

Just the facts ma’am

Everyday you provide great examples of Trump’s ongoing corruption. Attempting to impact the votes of senators because they don’t support him. That’s appalling. Trump has no mandate to be president if he’s been elected by Americans who support that disgusting behavior.

Tuberville is a moron. I mean, really. How could Alabamans elect this guy?

Expand full comment

Many years ago the people of Alabama wanted to run Bear Bryant for office. He turned them down

I am betting he was probably brighter than Tubberville. He was a darn sight better coach

Expand full comment

Same reason most politicians rise. Tuberville was an Auburn Football HC. In what world would Republican Tom Brady not come close to winning in the Massachusetts federal Senate race? Football is HUGE in Alabama, so much so that the non-football folks know to respond to questions with the name of their closest football team: “You want fries with that?” “Roll Tide.”

Picture Nancy Mace without makeup and with short hair. She looks like a guy. Maybe that's why she's so anti trans.

Yeah, funny how 2024 was completely a legit election since the "right" guy won.

The Republicans are a joke. And the Democrats need to grow some balls.

Nancy Mace is the only member of Congress standing up for women's sex-based rights, and I applaud her for doing so.

I'm a woman and I don't care who comes into a bathroom I'm occupying if they need "to go". I don't fear that a woman who used to be a man is coming into my ladies' room and is going to pull down their pants and expose themselves to me. Ladies' rooms have stalls.

Nancy Mace is an attention whore, and this is the issue she's latched on to make herself a MAGA warrior.

Expand full comment

She's also trying to make herself relevant as she is considering a run for governor of South Carolina.

Expand full comment

Yeah, that too. I liked her when she first got elected but now, she's just another harpy from the south, like MTG. Sarah McBride has shown incredible grace and class in spite of Mace's nasty, unkind behavior towards her. I'm sure the MAGAts all love her.

Are you OK with a cis man coming into your locker room at the gym and getting naked in front of you while you're naked? Because the exact same laws that Nancy Mace is fighting against also allow that. The man only has to claim that he has, at that moment, a "woman identity", and his presence is protected by law in every blue state (and will be under federal law if the Democrats ever manage to pass the Equality Act).

MarkS - How much time have you spent in a women's locker room or rest room? If you had, you'd have seen that there's very little genitalia being flaunted, because of stalls, individual changing and showering cubicles, etc. Also, are you proscribing different policies for pre-op vs. post-op transgender women, because your genitalia argument clearly falters on the latter.

I'm sure that the TERFs at WDI appreciate your support, but they don't speak for the majority of women.

Polling shows that a strong majority supports sex segregation in sports: https://news.gallup.com/poll/507023/say-birth-gender-dictate-sports-participation.aspx

As for what happens in locker rooms, here you can watch the Congressional testimony of a member of the Penn women's swim team who was forced to share a locker room with William Thomas:

Fuck yeah! With all due respect, I think you have issues. I’m 74 years old & single. I would welcome a naked man in my locker room or my living room.

Expand full comment

You can of course make that choice in your own personal life, but many women (and, for that matter, men) want the privacy, dignity, and security of single-sex spaces, both for themselves and for their children. The Democrats' insistence on abolishing these spaces is one big reason why they lost.

Looked at your Substack page. You're pretty obsessed with this one issue, aren't you. I don't get it, but that's ok. I think there's more unsettling things going on in this country than this. Peace.

Cassidy is the last republican in the Senate who voted to convict Trump. That is a radical thing to do, and not inline with where the country is at. He should be primaried and removed, and sent into retirement imo

Hit “Send” too soon!

You seem to forget that that’s PRECISELY “where the country was at” on Jan. 7th. Virtually *everyone*, of all political stripes, concurred that Trump was primarily responsible for the riot and clearly made it worse by sitting in the WH dining room, smirking and watching the results of his actions on TV.

Those Republican Senators that called Trump out for his historically unconscionable behavior on the 6th, but chose NOT to vote to impeach later, did so for *purely* political preservation. I applaud ANYONE that stands up for their principles, whether I agree with them or not.

Expand full comment

I see what you are saying for sure, but I think it also takes courage to defy the corporate media which talks about January 6 et nauseum. It was a major defiance of political norms, but to hundreds of millions of Americans does not affect our day to day lives. Biden’s policies DO

Voting to convict Trump as a republican, who is the most important and transitional president we’ve ever had because of 1 day is a HIGHLY emotional and rash decision. I take it you may disagree?

Expand full comment

“The most important and transitional president”?! What do you base *that* on?

The vast majority of presidential historians, ie learned experts, agree that Trump in his first term was the worst President in American history. I know that those of you MAGA followers don’t respect expertise at all, but most of us do. You can disagree, but you’ll have to establish the parameters for that “opinion”.

“Transitional” to what? The height of corruption, unlike anything we’ve seen in American history, even worse than Nixon? I don’t get the use of that term. Maybe you meant “transactional”, in which case we would have found something to agree upon.

And to call holding a President to Constitutional standards of behavior an “emotional and rash decision” makes no sense at all: it ALWAYS takes courage to put your entire career at risk by taking a principled stand. These Republican Senators had literally NOTHING to gain politically from their vote and EVERYTHING to lose. I just can’t understand how you can say otherwise.

Sorry, but that belies a deep understanding of both political *and* human nature. Ever heard the old phrase “go along to get along”? There’s truth there.

And I disagree strongly with what you said about republican politicians having no incentive to vote against Trump. You risk your job, but if it is your last term in office, you get a nice cushy talking head job at MSNBC, or CNN as a never-trumper republican. Corporate media LOVES having these people as regulars. 400K a year as a Liz Cheney type republican "strategist" on CNN, who might not even believe what they are saying.

The media has no voice/rep for the millions of democrats who left the democratic party. But the 5 people who voted Trump in 2020 and switched to Harris, get a paid gig. How is that a fair media?

How can the “worst presidential term in American history” be re-elected to a second term? That is almost an oxymoron, that should make you question who the experts are. I’m serious. Do the actual people in the country not matter in these rankings, or is it purely political?

I voted for Biden in 20’ and dems for 3 elections in a row, and even I can see the incompetent leadership we have currently. He has a consistent 36% approval rating!! About as low as Trump’s lowest moments 😨. Our country is throwing away money in foreign aid and conflicts that we cant afford to, Biden ended Trumps “remain in Mexico” policy and inflation got up to 7% in 22* with fuel cost up 150% in my area!! Did you feel that impact?

And yes, I agree with you Trump is transactional to a fault. And thats a problem, but sometimes it is necessary to ask in a trade. What is in it for our side in this deal? And having someone standup for American’s interest as a bully is nice. People have to make consessions to a stronger negotiator. Nixon called it the “madman theory” of negotiations.

I am not convinced on Trumps Tariff policies, but we will have to actually see if it really causes inflation to spike! I take it you are a free trade person?

I am curious if the GOP Congress members will all go along with Trump in raising taxes through tariffs and blowing up the deficit through income tax cuts. He needs almost 100% support in both chambers to pass his agenda. ( I think I have read that he might be able to do tariffs on his own.)
