And, if it turns out that President ELECT Trump is simply playing 12-D Chess on Democrats and Weigantians??

It's very telling that you seriously believe that Trump plays "12-D Chess" when he doesn't, and what it says is you are gullible as hell. The fact you cannot see that it's actually Republicans that Democrat Donald Trump is generally "playing" is most hysterical.

Well, so much the better.. Then I get to laugh at Democrats for being played so easily... :D

Said the guy with his head so far up Don the Con's ass that he seems totally unaware that for nigh on a decade he's actually been singing the praises of a Democrat who took over the Republican Party of cowards and gullible rubes.

For me, it's a WIN WIN… :D

Imagine what a "WIN WIN" it is to watch you incessantly whine about your hatred for Democrats while falling all over yourself year after year repeatedly in the service to one. It's hysterical. *laughs*

I was using it wrong long before Jurassic Park.

:D

No rest for the weary protectors of democracy on the streets of FL.. See ya'all later.. :D

Well, so much the better.. Then I get to laugh at Democrats for being played so easily... :D

For me, it's a WIN WIN… :D

Just like we saw when President Trump stomped the shit outta Headboard Harris and the Democrats..

You are absolutely correct. We will see just like we saw all that.. :D

You lost, troll. You will continue to lose.. And EVERYONE will see.. :D

The determining factor was Biden's DOJ failing to find any prosecutable offense.

Occam's Razor clearly comes down on Gaetz's favor..

Fact reality. There is no 'there' there. It's a nothing burger.. Something you hysterical Democrats excel at..

You lost, troll.. Get over it and move on...

No one deserves more blame for Dems’ $1B electoral collapse

It’s high time to shatter the myth of Nancy Pelosi as a master strategist. Nobody deserves more blame than the ridiculously self-titled “speaker emerita” for the Democrats’ $1 billion electoral collapse.

Under her ruthless leadership, her party lost the White House, the House, the Senate and the popular vote. You can’t say that enough.

Voters rejected the Dems from coast to coast, even in Pelosi’s deepest-blue home city of San Francisco, which saw a 7-point swing to Donald Trump.

She’s the only speaker in history to have lost control of the House twice.

The empress emeritus has no clothes (eeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww).

If anyone wants someone to blame for the Great Democrat Decimation of 2024, Pelosi is front and center for that honor..

The fact remains. Matt Gaetz is 1000% completely and utterly innocent of all accusations and Gaetz will make a fine US AG, bringing law and order to a country that has had so little of both the last 4 years..

Ya'all are doing nothing but dining on sour grapes and crow.. :D

Embracing drugie culture while abandoning law and order, eh. Finally reaching your potential as true "Florida Man". Keep it up and we will get a news article about you eating people's faces off while whacked out on bath salts...

You're illegally plagiarizing the work of Eric Levitz:

And by "we," I assume you mean "some people" because there are actually some of us that don't suffer the affliction of CRS disease because we can actually remember stuff from one day to the next.

Let's just call this one "BJ." Okay?

So if BJ is confirmed by the spineless Trumplicans in the Senate, won't it be great fun watching all the Tea-nuts, MAGAt nuts and QAnon-nuts whine incessantly about anyone attempting to do something/anything about the atrocious crap that passes for nutrition of America's school children? Rhetorical question.

Those should be frightening thoughts. He's already threatening mass firings and plenty of fringe ideas for the nation's health.

What could be more "fringe" than Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" campaign? I can still hear the Karens and Bettys whining about their school-aged children being "forced" to eat something/anything that wasn't dipped in batter and fried and very upset, I tell you, upset that ketchup was no longer considered a vegetable.

How utterly devastating is it for Democrats that Harris is LOSING the Popular Vote in addition to being utterly creamed in the Electoral Vote..

Democrats didn't even get a participation trophy this time!!! :D

Oh the shame Democrats must feel..

I guess that's why I am the only one commenting here.. :D

If Matt Gaetz is as bad as ya'all say...

Why did he win re-election by almost 50 points!!???

If the people who know Gaetz best returns him to Congress by an almost 50 point margin....????

Obviously ya'all's claims are NOTHING but political bullshit. As is per ya'all's norm...

Matt Gaetz is going to make a fine US AG... :D

And, once again, ya'all are going to lose and America and Americans are going to win.. :D

I guess ya'all are going to condemn Democrat Bob Casey now?? Right??? :eyeroll:

There are ZERO facts that prove ANY of the BS yer spewing..

ZERO..... FACTS....

Yer just being pissy and bitchy cuz President Trump cleaned ya'all's clocks so well :D

NONE of what you said is factually accurate..

Actually, EVERY SINGLE THING I SAID WAS FACTUALLY ACCURATE!

Your denial of that fact makes when I said, “God, you are such a pathetic sycophant follower!” even more true!

I accept your concession that you have no facts to counter my facts.

As usual, you are wrong.. :D

If you question my facts, then say so... I'll be happy to prove you wrong..

Just as I have done with Biden's campaign and the 2024 election. :D

NO WONDER Bashi never has any REAL facts to support his claims..

:eyeroll:

NONE of what you said is factually accurate..

:eyeroll:

[10] Do ya'all know WHY Matt Gaetz is the PERFECT choice for AG and Tulsi Gabbard is the PERFECT choice for DNI??

Because ya'all and your Democrats are so hysterically against them.. :D

So you are picking the people to run this country based on how upset they make Democrats, is that it? THAT is what you feel makes them the best candidate for the job — pissing off fellow Americans? For you, that is most important?!?!

Actually it makes sense… because without that, even you could not justify their being nominated for the position! Tell me why you think a child-fucher is the best choice for Attorney General? You are obviously fine with electing self-admitted sexual predators to lead our government based on your voting history. But I want to hear what you believe makes Gaetz qualified to run the DOJ other than his history of screwing underaged little girls?

[44] And getting rid of that completely and utter retarded directive that essentially says that biological boys can be female and are allowed to participate in female sports teams.

So you want your daughter showering with trans men? A birth certificate says you are either male or female based on the visual clues the doctor witnessed at the time. You think that it makes more sense for your daughters to compete against trans boys who self-identify as males based solely on the fact that it says on their birth certificate that they were born a girl?!? You want your daughter competing against trans males in sports because you believe that their birth certificate says that is “fair”? God, you are such a pathetic sycophant follower!

I'm not going to touch your weird sexual fascination with Al Gore. You can do that in private or whatever echo chamber you share those weird erotic fantasies...

How do we know this??

Because Al Gore's lead attorney TOLD us that is what Al 'Crazed Sex Poodle' Gore said and did....

There was no crime committed no matter how much you wish it so..

Like most your posts? I mean we have the audio of him committing the crime:

find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won this state.

Which, like Democrat science, has little to nothing to do with facts or reality...

If President Trump were actually guilty of those crimes, why did Democrats have to change laws and create new laws JUST to persecute President Trump??

I'll tell you why. Because it was nothing but political lawfare with no basis in fact or reality..

By now, Democrats just HAVE to realize that their lawfare against Trump backfired, and will go down in history as that time the Democrats lost their minds and couldn’t be reigned in.

If it doesn't then that is just one more indication of how deep Democrats have fallen into the abyss of their PTDS and Trump/America hate.

The American people were smart enough to see the escalation on the Left that the Democrats could not. They knew who Trump was. They knew he was the guy on Celebrity Apprentice who said things to shock people.

Yet, the Democrat's unending persecution of him, with impeachments, indictments, mass hysteria, and eventually a felony conviction and a mug shot - they wrote themselves into the script as the bad guys. Now you have these insane women sobbing on TikTok, blathering about a “convicted felon” as though any of it was ever real or valid or necessary.

The lawfare persecutions against President Trump was the biggest Democrats could have possibly made. Yunno why?? Because it sent the message to us American voters, that Democrats couldn’t earn our votes on their own. Democrats could only win if they put Trump in jail.

Nothing.. Absolutely NOTHING did more to turn the Trump story into the Hero’s Journey than that.

By the end of it, a growing number of Americans hated the Democrats and the Democrat Party and those same Americans would crawl over broken glass to vote the Democrats out of power.

Democrat misery and the hysterical screams and whinings are all nothing but self-inflicted wounds..

They’re shaving their heads. They’re uninviting family members to Thanksgiving. They’re obsessing over everything Trump is doing and saying, refusing to go quietly. In other words, they’re turning into Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.
-Sasha Stone

It's just as I said... Ya'all's PTDS and Trump/America hate turned the Democrats in raging bigoted hate-beasts...

Democrats simply could not think and act rationally... THAT is why they lost..

I mean, think about all the bonehead decisions Democrats made while in the throes of their PTDS and Trump/America hate..

The Democrats allowed senile dementia-riddled Biden to run again.. Then Democrats coronated Biden's candidacy without a serious or even a semblance of a primary. Then the Democrats allowed senile dementia-riddled Biden to get to within a hundreds days of the election before realizing what ALL Americans already knew for years...

THEN Democrats dumped Biden and coronated ANOTHER moron as their candidate.. Again without ANY semblance of a primary..

I mean, gods, Democrats!! You SAW how Headboard Harris ran her previous presidential campaign. THAT should have been a clue and a half for yer asses that Harris simply was not presidential candidate material..

Democrats made hysterical mistake after hysterical mistake after hysterical mistake...

ALL because Democrats could not reign in their PTDS and Trump/America hate..

And NOW Democrats are making the SAME hysterical mistakes by not realizing exactly WHY they got their asses handed to them..

And so it goes and so it goes...

We're gonna be getting rid of a LOT of bull carp that came out of the Biden administration..

From the moronic OSHA vaccine mandate to the radical and totally against the science interpretation of Title IX..

And getting rid of that completely and utter retarded directive that essentially says that biological boys can be female and are allowed to participate in female sports teams.

The fact that these common sense directives have to be changed is a very large part of why Democrats were so completely and utterly decimated in 2024 election..

I mean, the idea that a male could be a female just by saying they are..????

It's completely and utterly moronic and ridiculous..

Which describes Democrats to a 'T'.. utterly moronic and ridiculous...

Then thank you and congratulations! Let's hope she is able to hold onto the seat in two years and do much good in the world.

Ole Chuckie Schumer is running scared...

Prior to the election, Chuckie boy was dreaming about full control of the Senate. He planned to get rid of the filibuster and force thru America-Killing legislation that NO ONE with more than 2 brain cells actually wants..

Schumer also planned to expand voting rights nationwide by passing the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

He also was planning a potential rule change to codify abortion rights in federal law, a party priority after Roe v. Wade was overturned, which would have faced staunch Republican opposition and lacking a path to 60 Senate votes.

Schumer also wanted to "reform" the Supreme Court by slapping 18-year term limits on justices and touted reversing the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling, which determined that presidents are immune from prosecution for official acts.

Finally, Chuckie planned to move legislation that would expand the Supreme Court from nine to 13 members.

Chuckie was going to get rid of the filibuster and steamroll these draconian measures thru the Senate...

Now???

"To my Republican colleagues, I offer a word of caution in good faith.

So, instead of going to the extremes, I remind my colleagues that this body is most effective when it’s bipartisan. If we want the next four years in the Senate to be as productive as the last four, the only way that will happen is through bipartisan cooperation."
-Chuckie Schumer

TRANSLATION: {begging} PLEASE PLEASE don't do to us what we planned to do to you!!! PLEASE!!! PLEASE!!! I'm BEGGING you!!!

BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Democrats are such pitiful creatures... :D

Fortunately for Schumer, President Trump and the GOP have been more principled than Democrats when it comes to the legislative filibuster, and to the filibuster in general. The GOP realizes that even though they will have the majority for the next two years, they might be back in the minority at any time after that. So Schumer will not get it good and hard the way he planned to give it to Republicans.

The GOP actually CONSIDERS the long game and looks BEYOND political/ideological quick fixes..

President ELECT Trump and the GOP actually CARE what happens to America and won't destroy this country, just to remain in power..

Unlike Democrats, who are hate-filled and bigoted slugs who can't see past their own power-grubbing wants..

Not a single one of my comments have been racist or sexist in any way...

Anyone who has the misfortune to read both our posts knows who is lying...

I’m going to create these wellness farms where they can go to get off of illegal drugs, off of opiates, but also illegal drugs, other psychiatric drugs, if they want to, to get off of SSRIs, to get off of benzos, to get off of Adderall, and to spend time as much time as they need—three or four years if they need it—to learn to get reparented, to reconnect with communities.

Just put the entire Adderall addicted white house staff on a farm for "three or four years". Problem solved...

And AGAIN with the lies...

But it's typical of a racist. Sees racism in everything..

Nothing more pathetic than those who are quick to dish it out but then can't take it...

What a sad excuse for a human being you are...

Once again.. ZERO facts to support your claim.. It's nothing beyond your hopes and wishes that the US is destroyed..

JUST so you can blame it on President Trump...

You have absolutely NO right to call yourself an American...

Your Democrats blew it.. Plain and simple..

Only a massive realignment of Democrat priorities will have a chance of bringing Democrats in from the wilderness..

The red shift was pretty much everywhere. It was bigger in cities and bigger in Latino counties, but ultimately, the cross-cutting nature of the shift showed that it was a bad environment for Democrats to be running in.

What I tell ya'all… Democrats lost MILLIONS of voters to President Trump..

A considerably great margin of a win in the Popular Vote... Just as I predicted...

MILLIONS of Americans leaving the Democrat Party to vote for President Trump... Just as I predicted...

NO ONE with more than 2 brain cells to rub together can deny the reality..

This is President ELECT Trump's America...

Democrats won't be able to accomplish anything with their flaccid and impotent token resistance..

The American people are, en masse, behind President Trump... :D

There are simply NO FACTS to support your claim..

It's only your PTDS and your Trump/America hate that prompts your HOPE, your WISH, that America will be hurt badly.

Though it is telling that all you can harp on is hurting liberals and crapping on democrats.

Oh I do so much more than that.. I also gloat how completely and utterly WRONG ya'all were.. :D

No defending Trumps policies.

Those policies need no defense. They are common-sense policies that the vast majority of Americans are behind..

No explanation of how illicitly using emergency powers to push tariffs and get the worst cabinet in American history is going to improve the country.

No explanation is needed as those things haven't happened yet.. DUH... You used to be smarter than this.. :eyeroll: Must be all the legalized drugs you take in the shithole city of Portland..

Says the guy who simply MUST respond to every comment I make.. :D

Once again, retreaded Weigantians accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of..

Ya'all were WRONG.. Ya'all were as wrong as one can be.. :D

And I'm not what's called a low-information voter. I can't imagine how such a process could ever be explained to the voters responsible for approving such a major change to our election system.

Can you, applying it to (say) this year's results, tell us how the two parties might have done under such a fine-tuned proportional system? And as we can imagine, one or the other of the parties will fight tooth and nail against it, depending on the answer to that question. I would guess the voters who might override party interests in favor of getting a fairer and more representational legislature are not going to understand this and so will not vote for it.

Another question, I guess, is how easy it would be to defend this proposal against accusations that it will be easier to 'rig' than the current count-the-votes-and-we're-done system.

Thanks for the contribution!

And a short time ago the conservatives were an endangered species. The voters have a short memory. What have you done for me lately. Lately will be crashing the economy and a general shit show. The pendulum will swing back hard.

'We’ve reached a point in this country where we no longer want to engage in conversation,' Adams says

Yep, yep, yep...

Democrats have become as nasty, as bigoted and as intolerant as Democrats accuse Trump supporters of being..

New York City Mayor Eric Adams told "The View" Friday that the Democratic Party needs to focus less on calling its political enemies fascists and focus more on speaking to the needs of everyday Americans.

Adams, a Democrat, was pressed about "defending" President-elect Donald Trump from comparisons to Adolf Hitler made by his own former staff. The mayor clarified he wasn’t defending Trump but criticizing the left’s hyperbolic rhetoric.

"We’ve reached a point in this country where we no longer want to engage in conversation. They were even calling him Hitler," he said, adding, "That was an insult to the millions of Jews and others who died. We know what Hitler did."

And NO ONE here spoke out against such divisive and hateful rhetoric..

And, as Democrats believe, "Silence Gives Assent"

Do ya see what Democrats have been reduced to??

Relying on fictional cartoon characters... :D

I guess that is apropos since the Democrat Party has been reduced to a cartoonish representation of it's former self..

Once again... Ya'all were wrong.. And *I* was dead on ballz accurate.. :D

I would like to see an in-depth analysis as to exactly what Democrats were thinking when they started OPERATION IMMORAL UNETHICAL LAWFARE PERSECUTIONS... :D

But, like having Democrats look in a mirror.. It will likely never happen..

The Democratic Party wanted to talk down to working-class voters instead of listening to their concerns about gas, housing and food prices.
Instead of embracing and trying to find a solution to the problem, the Democrats took a position that it's only their opinion mattered, and that's all that mattered.

They've got a lot of soul-searching to do, and look, I said this earlier today in another interview that, you know, the Democrat Party needs to take a look in the mirror and say, you know, maybe Chuck Schumer's time is over. Maybe Nancy Pelosi's time is over. Let's figure out who's going to be the best for the party.
Teamsters Union President Sean O'Brien

It's all about taking a deep long look into the mirror and realize that Democrats are wrong here..

But this is something that you Democrats will NEVER do..

"Talk about doubling down on what got you fucked in the first place. Even the one concession I've heard a few people on the losing side offer that liberals should stop saying that Trump voters are stupid comes with a kind of unspoken parentheses 'We know they are stupid, just don't say it.' I got bad news for you, Democrats They don't have a monopoly on stupid.
You wear ‘Queers for Palestine’ t-shirts and masks two years after the pandemic ended. And you can't define a woman. I mean ‘person who menstruates.’ You're the teachers' union education party and you've turned schools and colleges into a joke.
Democrats have become like a royal family that, because of so much incest, has unfortunately had children who are retarded. And the same thing can happen to ideas if they are also conceived in an atmosphere of intellectual incest. Maybe take the clothespins off your noses and actually converse with the other half of the country. Stop screaming at people to get with the program and instead make a program worth getting with.
The reason why I'm so mad at the Democrats is because, as a voter, the issues that were important to me were democracy and the environment. And now there's no one to champion or defend either of them because you Democrats, with your aggressively anti-common sense agenda and shitty exclusionary attitude, blew it. You've lost everything: House, Senate, White House, Supreme Court, and left us completely unprotected and ready to be violated."
-Bill Maher

That's what you Democrats don't get... Ya'all have moved too far to the Left and patriotic everyday Americans don't want ANYTHING to do with ya...

Also-fairly-short answer: It should be replaced with a difference in how the House and Senate are elected.

In other words, the filibuster will never be replaced.. :D

Our advice to everyone is to get used to it. Because this is going to be what the next four years is like. Come Friday, we won't even remember the scandals from Monday, or the previous weekend. They will be lost in time, paling in significance to the newer outrages.

In other words, President ELECT Trump is using Democrat hysteria AGAINST the Democrats... :D

12-D Chess indeed.. :D

Short answer: proportional representation in the House.

Also-fairly-short answer: It should be replaced with a difference in how the House and Senate are elected. Any difference that makes them actually be different in who gets over-represented, who gets under-represented, and who goes effectively unrepresented because their side simply lost the most recent election. Ideally, no one would be completely unrepresented. The Senate would represent who won pluralities in that state in two of the last three elections, exactly as it does now. But the House would represent everyone equally.

Long answer: There are tons of other possibilities besides proportional representation for how to make the chambers different, and tons of versions of proportional representation. As long as they're different, you've got checks and balances. But if the difference is trivial, the checks and balances won't be very effective. And as long as both chambers are elected by winner-take-all plurality vote, the differences will be trivial. For a completely specific answer, let's go with the following version of proportional representation for the House:

Candidates are still nominated district by district, but a party can choose to run some or all of the same candidates in as many districts as they choose. Voters rank not only the candidates but also a "none of these candidates" option. Candidates have party affiliation shown on the ballot. The total number of votes in the state is divided by the number of House seats the state has, and that number is called the threshold number. The number of first-choice votes for each candidate is tallied statewide. Ballots with "none of these" as first choice are counted as negative votes for the last choice candidate. Any candidate having at least the threshold number of first-choice votes is elected. (There usually won't be any. In a single-seat state, electing a candidate at this step would require unanimity.) Whenever a candidate is elected, their votes over the threshold are transferred to the next-lower candidates in the voters' rankings, as fractional votes. The first-choice candidates are removed, leaving the second-choice candidate as the new first choice and so on down the list. (Remember, the idea is to represent everyone equally. Excess votes beyond what a candidate needed are wasted votes. That means those voters are under-represented.) If not all of the state's seats have been filled (and they won't be, because unanimity is impossible at the scale of a whole state), the total number of votes is re-tallied with the fractional votes counting as fractional and the negative votes counting as negative, The new vote total is divided by the number of seats remaining, to get a new threshold. If the new total is negative, candidates are eliminated at subsequent steps instead of elected. At the next step, the first-choice votes are tallied by party. Within each party, candidates are ranked by number of first-choice vote, producing a party list. Each party that has at least the threshold number of votes elects candidates starting from the top of its list (or eliminates candidates, if the votes are negative), until it gets to the whole-number multiple of the threshold that it got. Then elected (or eliminated) candidates are removed from the lists where they appear as first (or last) choice, the excess votes are turned into fractional votes, and the whole cycle is repeated until all seats are filled.

This explains why MILLIONS and MILLIONS of Liberal Democrats voted for President Trump... :D

And ya'all only have yerselves to blame.. :D

Because ya'all and your Democrats are so hysterically against them.. :D

Anyone that is THAT bad for Democrats is obviously very VERY good for America... :D

But, even if it is just President ELECT Trump playing 12D Chess while Democrats are playing tiddley winks, that's fine too..

Just watching hysterical Democrats' heads explode is worth the price of admission.. :D

The left’s comforting myth about why Harris lost

Progressives need an accurate autopsy of Kamala Harris’s campaign, not an ideologically convenient one.

America elected Donald Trump, not only won a second lease on the White House, but America did so with a considerably great plurality of the popular vote — while Republicans took control of both congressional chambers.

Meanwhile, conservatives have consolidated their grip on the Supreme Court, slashed the Democrats’ advantage with Hispanic voters, and fortified the GOP’s strength with the non-college-educated electorate, realignments that threatened the Democratic Party’s capacity to wield federal power.

In the face of this calamity, Democrats must develop a clear-eyed understanding of how they got here and chart a plausible path back to the country they want to live in.

Answering those questions will require Democrats to analyze their predicament with open minds. If we seek ideologically comforting explanations for the party’s problems — rather than empirically sound ones — the coalition will march deeper into the wilderness.

The problems you Democrats face is that a clear, concise, logical and rational autopsy of ya'all's devastating decimation will require that ya'all accomplish the ONE THING that Democrats refuse to do.

Look in the mirror and admit that ya'all COULD be wrong..

Until ya'all can do that, ya'all will be doomed to reliving over and over again the very definition of insanity..

Doing the same thing over and over again hoping for a different result..

However, it is deeply troubling that Kari Lake received almost 50% of the vote. She is a deeply-flawed candidate, who turned off too many Republicans. This SHOULD BE a warning to Democrats to prepare for a more capable Republican opponent the next election.

The Democratic Party has to figure out how to convince voters to NOT treat their vote as a sign of "team loyalty". When even the most damaged candidate receives so many votes simply because she has an "R" after her name, Democrats have their work cut out for them.

Thanks. It doesn't get much better than that, coming from a well-credentialed and respectable conservative Republican.
