		<description>same for the documents thing. every outgoing executive has a few accidental loose ends unattended, and gives back as much as possible as soon as they find out. Donald in contrast took fifteen boxes of classified documents with him on purpose, then lied about them, then flat out refused to return them. neither ridiculous false equivalency nor moot consequences change those facts. Donald is still the most famously successful outlaw in history.</description>

		<description>there exists no police or national guard that the president can&#039;t call into action if he chooses to, and it strains credulity to somehow conclude otherwise, much less lay an explicitly executive responsibility at the feet of a legislator. lacking any real excuse, maga world invents them. the consequences are now moot, but the lies are no less fantastical for it.</description>

		<description>Who are the biggest suckers in America??

Democrats..  :D

They actually BELIEVED Basement Biden when he said that he would never pardon the First Druggie... :D

And Democrats were even BIGGER suckers by coronating Headboard Harris!!!  

Headboard Harris went thru over 2.5 BILLION dollars between donations and the Harris PAC..

Democrats??? Good luck on your future fundraisers..  :D

Nate Silver put it perfectly..

&lt;B&gt;&quot;A senile and selfish old man.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

Democrats won&#039;t be able to fund raise for dick for quite a while.. :D

		<description>You were wrong about Biden finishing the election..

You were wrong about Harris winning the election..

You have been WRONG about everything..

Oh wait.. Don&#039;t tell me.. Let me guess.. You never said anything about that one way or another..  :eyeroll:

Your BS is so predictable..

This is exactly why there is no use in discussing anything with you..

You never admit when you are wrong..

And you have been WRONG about everything for the last year..

Funny how that is ALWAYS the case, eh?  :D

No, I need a link to prove you are not a dumb ass trying to dodge backing up the unrelated point. 

&lt;i&gt;You won&#039;t even believe the links..&lt;/i&gt;

Of course I will. How else will reading down 2/3rds in to the article prove your point wrong?</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Then prove it! Link to the facts. &lt;/I&gt;

You need a LINK to prove that Harris lost??

A LINK to prove that Basement Biden had to drop out??

That is EXACTLY your problem, Bashi..

You won&#039;t even believe the links..

You don&#039;t believe ANYTHING that violates your Democrat ideology..

Show me ONE TIME that you have EVER admitted when you were wrong..

You can&#039;t because it NEVER happens.

NO amount of links or facts will cause you to say, &lt;B&gt;&quot;Yep.. You were right.. I was wrong..&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

So... Tell me...

Why should I even bother when we BOTH know you won&#039;t EVER concede anything..

Then prove it! Link to the facts. Otherwise you are just talking out your ass. 

And we get it, any journalist or news outlet disagrees with you is &quot;left wing propaganda&quot;. The most half assed excuse to not backing up your argument I&#039;ve ever heard.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;the other crimes donald was indicted for were a lot more serious. absconding with classified documents while no longer president, showing them to people without clearance, and refusing to return them when asked, &lt;/I&gt;

You mean, like Biden and Obama and Clinton did??

Biden didn&#039;t even have any legal RIGHT to HAVE those documents and yet he had them and showed them to people without clearance..

You have no ethical or legal leg to stand on with ANY of those &quot;crimes&quot; that President Trump is alleged to have committed..

&lt;I&gt; and refusing to send help when the capitol police were getting crushed by a mob armed with bear spray, stun-guns, baseball bats and flagpoles.&lt;/I&gt;

Not factually accurate..  President Trump was going to send the National Guard in.. Pelosi stopped that..

&lt;I&gt;besides being illegal, these are really bad things to do. jaywalking, my arse. i don&#039;t dispute that a lot of people really are convinced that it&#039;s all a nothingburger cooked up by political opponents. but regardless of what the law or the courts or public opinion say, donald did actually do these things, and the evidence of it is incontrovertible.&lt;/I&gt;

Not factually accurate.. There are simply NO REAL facts that proves ANY of it..

Which is why the legal cases against President Trump were falling apart even BEFORE his awesome Electoral &amp; Popular Vote wins...

Each and every one of those cases would have fallen apart or been reversed on appeal..

THIS is documented FACT...</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><i>the other crimes donald was indicted for were a lot more serious. absconding with classified documents while no longer president, showing them to people without clearance, and refusing to return them when asked, </i></p>
<p>You mean, like Biden and Obama and Clinton did??</p>
<p>Biden didn't even have any legal RIGHT to HAVE those documents and yet he had them and showed them to people without clearance..</p>
<p>You have no ethical or legal leg to stand on with ANY of those "crimes" that President Trump is alleged to have committed..</p>

		<description>@m,

as i&#039;ve said before about the tax documents, that has happened in previous cases. i&#039;m not saying it&#039;s right, but that&#039;s just the way the state of new york operates, and every juror knew it, which i think is one of the reasons they voted to convict; they knew that if it were they who&#039;d done it they&#039;d be treated exactly the same.

the other crimes donald was indicted for were a lot more serious. absconding with classified documents while no longer president, showing them to people without clearance, and refusing to return them when asked, pressuring state officials to manipulate vote counts, and refusing to send help when the capitol police were getting crushed by a mob armed with bear spray, stun-guns, baseball bats and flagpoles.

		<description>And the stuff I typed in about the hoops Democrats had to jump thru is just stuff I remembered off the top of my head.  If I had a hankering and really research it, I could go into real depth about how badly Democrats abused the legal system to bring President Trump down..

Democrats shredded the laws and shredded the Constitution in the throes of their PTDS and Trump/America hate..

Having said that, will anyone remember in 20 years??

Yes, I think people will.. If only as a cautionary tale of being hoisted by their own petard..

It&#039;s the ISHMAEL PARADOX...  By taking Spock back into the past to change history, the Klingons brought about the very incident that they had went back in time  to prevent..

So it is with Democrats.. Democorats brought about the very Uber Nuclear Shellacking they had been trying to prevent..

		<description>&lt;I&gt;when would anyone on earth ever remember the legal hurdles required to indict (and in 34 cases convict) the former and future president? does anyone even know what those hurdles were right now? &lt;/I&gt;

Yep...

In the case of the 34 &quot;felonies&quot;, Bragg had to pair the state misdemeanors where the statute of limitations had already expired to a FEDERAL felony that he couldn&#039;t even NAME, let alone prove..

That&#039;s just for the one case..

Many other hoops were creating new laws in NY to overcome a Statute Of Limitations hurdle, modifying existing laws etc etc..

&lt;I&gt;donald did some stuff that was illegal - that&#039;s factual and on the record. &lt;/I&gt;

The &quot;illegal&quot; stuff that President Trump did was akin to jaywalking.. 

EVERY ONE does it but only those named Trump were persecuted for it..

As far as the Election &quot;crimes&quot; go, President Trump didn&#039;t do anything different than Al &quot;Crazed Sex Poodle&quot; Gore did in the 2020 election..

We know this because the lead of Gore&#039;s legal team TOLD us..

And on and on it goes..

The funny thing is, had Democrats left it all alone, they made have made the election a lot closer than  it was.. Might have even squeeked out a win..

But they were so crazed with PTDS and Trump/America hate, they didn&#039;t think straight...

THAT is why the Democrat Party lost over 10,000,000 voters and got shellacked in the 2024 election..

&lt;B&gt;&quot;None of these facts are in dispute, Mr President!!&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;i&gt;When one considers the actual charges and the jurisprudencial hoops that Democrats had to jump thru&lt;/i&gt;

when would anyone on earth ever remember the legal hurdles required to indict (and in 34 cases convict) the former and future president? does anyone even know what those hurdles were right now? if someone on the street couldn&#039;t tell you about it even when it&#039;s fresh in the public eye, they certainly won&#039;t consider it with years of hindsight. even the nerdiest of legal and political scholars probably won&#039;t know or care about fani willis, merrick garland, alvin bragg or jack smith, any more than they care about pat garett, robert ford or john gleeson.

donald did some stuff that was illegal - that&#039;s factual and on the record. he successfully convinced enough people that it was all false and politically motivated to neutralize the charges&#039; impact, win the election, and therefore escape ever having to answer for any of it. that IS amazing. anyone who has looked at this presidential race since june has known what was probably coming, including lawyers and judges. whether you support him or oppose him, seeing it all come to fruition has been absolutely legendary.

		<description>To put things in perspective for ya&#039;all..

When you consider the number of self-identified Democrat voters in 2020 (37%) versus the number of self-identified Democrat voters in 2024 (31%) the fact is Democrats lost over 10,000,000 voters...

Most of them went over to Independents &amp; NPAs (27% in 2020 vs 34% in 2024) with the rest going over to the GOP..

TEN MILLION VOTERS...  That&#039;s how bad Democrats lost..

Do ya&#039;all SERIOUSLY believe THAT is a MESSAGING problem??

Or do ya&#039;all accept the reality that THAT many lost voters means it&#039;s a MESSAGE problem..???

		<description>&lt;B&gt;For all the recent spin, post-election Kamala Harris is going nowhere but to a Dukakis-like retirement. She proved the worst Democratic candidate since the 1972 catastrophe of George McGovern (who was a sincere person, and a decorated WWII B-24 combat bomber pilot).&lt;/B&gt;

Wait a tic.. 

Didn&#039;t someone here make the Harris/Dukakis comparison??  :D

Iddn&#039;t AMAZING how dead on ballz accurate my predictions were??  :D

I told ya&#039;all that Harris simply CANNOT win..

This was confirmed by Harris campaign officials after the election.

&lt;B&gt;AT NO POINT&lt;/B&gt; in the election was Harris EVER REALLY ahead of President.. NEVER... NOT ONCE... was Harris EVER a threat to win the election..

Had ya&#039;all listened back then, ya&#039;all wouldn&#039;t have to be eating so much crow now, eh??  :D

I&#039;m just sayin&#039;... :D

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Voters to Washington in 2024:
The Rise of Independents and
Decline of Democrats
An analysis of the 2024 Presidential Election&lt;/B&gt;
https://www.winstongroup.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Winston-Group-2024-Post-Election-Analysis.pdf

Key Points
For the first time since the Watergate era, independents surpassed one of the major political parties to rank second in terms of party identification. 

In this presidential election, the percentage of the electorate that self identified as Democrats came in behind independents. 

This extends a downward trend for Democrats that began in 2012, reaching a record low this year and makes a major difference for Republican prospects going forward.

Democrats need to make some MAJOR changes or they will never come out of the wilderness...

		<description>Interesting factoid..

In 2012, Odumbo won the election with 332 Electoral Votes..

53 of those EVs came from states that are not even in play anymore.  FL, OH, and IA have gone GOP for 3 elections in a row..

That&#039;s not just a canary in a coal mine.  That&#039;s a mass extinction of the entire canary population..

And yet, Democrats STILL cling to the fantasy, &lt;B&gt;&quot;Our message is fine..  If only our messaging was better...&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

That just doesn&#039;t cut it anymore..

Democrats are all about labeling people and addressing them as a label instead of as a person.. As a voter..

&lt;B&gt;&quot;Blacks go here and we say &#039;blaa blaa&#039; to them.  Hispanics go here and we say &#039;wup wup wup&#039; to them.
Asians go here and we say &#039;vrup, vrup, vrup&#039; to them..&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

Identity politics simply DOESN&#039;T work any more...

Democrats STILL haven&#039;t gotten that memo...

		<description>Ya&#039;all just HAVE to know that, even if President Trump had lost the election and those charges had been allowed to continue, NONE of them would have survived appeal.

Many of those charges were already on the way out before the election..

It&#039;s obvious to even the most dullard that those charges had ONE goal.  And it was a goal that had NOTHING to do with justice and everything to do with dragging down President Trump&#039;s re-election campaign..

President Trump had both arms tied behind his back and was gagged and yet STILL won the election..

That should pretty much PROVE how bad a candidate Harris was that she would lose and lose so dramatically when she had EVERY possible advantage..

It either shows how BAD Harris was or how AWESOME President Trump is..

Ya&#039;all take yer pick.. :D

<p>That should pretty much PROVE how bad a candidate Harris was that she would lose and lose so dramatically when she had EVERY possible advantage..</p>
<p>It either shows how BAD Harris was or how AWESOME President Trump is..</p>
<p>Ya'all take yer pick.. :D</p>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;legend of escaping nearly 100 felony charges by being reelected president.&lt;/I&gt;

That wasn&#039;t really legend-inducing..

When one considers the actual charges and the jurisprudencial hoops that Democrats had to jump thru to bring those charges..  THAT is what is going to be remembered..

Don&#039;t take my word for it..  Just listen to Basement Bidens own words on how nefarious his Department Of Justice acted..

Everything Basement Biden said about his DOJ as it pertains to Hunter ALSO pertains to President Trump&#039;s prosecution..

So, President Trump&#039;s &quot;luck&quot; won&#039;t make him a legend.  The desperate acts of the Democrats to try and lawfare President Trump out of the election is what will be remembered..</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;We STILL remember Saint Ronald Reagan and what he did for American &lt;/i&gt;

cases in point, nobody in 1988 thought Reagan was remotely a saint. Teddy Roosevelt became president by assassination, and his second bid for reelection was rejected twice, first in the GOP primary and then again as an independent in the general election.

people don&#039;t remember the reality, they remember the myth. Even bringing long lasting peace to the Middle East could probably not eclipse the legend of escaping nearly 100 felony charges by being reelected president.</description>

		<description>JL,

&lt;I&gt;You&#039;re looking at this through a political lens. I&#039;m speaking historically. in 20 years no one will care who Donald&#039;s &quot;enemies&quot; were. and in 20 more beyond that no one will even remember. history has a way of changing a story and making it completely different from whatever people were saying at the time it happened. &lt;/I&gt;

I disagree..

We STILL remember Saint Ronald Reagan and what he did for American and it&#039;s over 40 years later..  Hell they just honored Teddy Roosevelt and his presidency was over 100 years ago..

President Trump has left and will leave an indelible mark on America that will be honored and appreciated for the next hundred years at least..  

Hell, President Trump is going to be remembered and honored for what he has done and what he will do for Israel alone, for a long time to come..

		<description>&lt;I&gt;This could dramatically limit what the incoming House is able to accomplish at the very start of the session.&lt;/I&gt;

I know that&#039;s what Democrats are hoping for.. :D

Allow me to dash those hopes with facts..

Republicans are giddy with excitement of their Trifecta...  :D

&lt;I&gt;Whatever happens, the new makeup of the House&#039;s majority just goes to show that Republicans really didn&#039;t have any sort of &quot;landslide&quot; election cycle. &lt;/I&gt;

Whatever you have to tell yourself to make it thru your day.. :D

The mere fact that President &lt;B&gt;ELECT&lt;/B&gt; Trump won the Popular Vote by a considerably great margin proves that &quot;Landslide&quot; is definitely the name for the 2024 election..  :D

Everyone is going to get on board with Making America Great Again..   :D

&lt;I&gt;Which improves the chances of a continuation of the chaos Republicans have exhibited for the past two years in the House.&lt;/i&gt;

And there you have it..  Democrats HOPING for chaos for America..  :^/

I am happy to report that Democrats will be sorely disappointed in how GOOD things are going to get for America and Americans..

Simply getting rid of the criminal illegal immigrant scumbags will go a LONG way to making America great again.

As I told ya&#039;all during the election season that culminated in the biggest Uber Nuclear Shellacking of Democrats in history...

Don&#039;t get your hopes up.. Stick a fork in the Democrat Party... It&#039;s done...

		<description>&lt;I&gt;referring to today&#039;s GOP representatives as &quot;radical Republicans&quot; sends waves of sadness through me as a history teacher who every year discusses the advances of the &quot;radical Republicans&quot; of the Reconstruction era.&lt;/I&gt;

Do you mean after that Republicans face-slammed the racist Democrats into the ground, they got busy and fought racist Democrats to make American a better place??

Yea... Good times..  :D

		<description>JMCT,

&lt;I&gt;My impression of the plan for Trump&#039;s first 100 days, such as there is one in the public press, is all about executive action, proclamations, and so-called &#039;dictatorship&#039;. &lt;/I&gt;

Isn&#039;t it ironic..  You just described Basement Biden&#039;s first 100 days as POTUS.. :D 

And everyone knows how bad Biden&#039;s POTUS&#039;ency has turned out.. :D

The fact is that EVERY ONE who is a patriotic American is behind President Trump..

It won&#039;t matter if the majority in the GOP House is 1 or is 100...  President Trump&#039;s Make America Great agenda will be steamroll&#039;ed thru...

Democrats have a simple choice..  Get on board or get run over...  :D

		<description>This continues many commentaries I&#039;ve been reading about the probable paralysis of the Republican-led House in the 2025-27 term. As one other commentator (ElectoralVote-dot-com) put it, every member of the Freedom Caucus has an effective veto on all proposed Republican legislation in the House. 

But your comment, &quot;This may act as a brake on Trump&#039;s first 100 days in office, which is when presidents always try to get the most done&quot; threw me a little bit. Because just how much of Trump&#039;s &#039;platform&#039; for his first 100 days is about passing laws? Working with Congress? Following constitutional procedures?

My impression of the plan for Trump&#039;s first 100 days, such as there is one in the public press, is all about executive action, proclamations, and so-called &#039;dictatorship&#039;. I&#039;ve never gotten the impression that Trump cares two hoots for how much the Congress might support him in his immediate efforts to gut the &#039;Deep State&#039; and assert the power of the Executive branch to the sky&#039;s the limit.

What laws, as such, have the Republicans pledged to pass in the &quot;first 100 days&quot;, such that a paralyzed House of Representatives might prevent that legislation from happening as promised in the recent campaign?</description>
