I hear people say she should have went on more podcasts etc. That is not the problem!!!!!! The problem the Democrats have are their policies. They suck. Most Americans don't agree with them. What they think is important, isn't important. So if she went on more podcasts, or whatever, she would have exposed how stupid their policies are. It is not that she was a good or bad campaigner, or that Trump was either. Trump said a lot of things that people thought was stupid. It was about POLICIES, not delivery.

He's back! My favorite British liberal with an anti-Trump Rant that's almost as funny as the one he posted after Trump's 2016 win.
Enjoy!

In light of this election, I think it's important that we not get ahead of ourselves. Too many conservatives may think that by winning this election we've won the war. That's not the case. At best, we've won a battle in this war. If you take a step back and look at things on the macro level, the picture is not as rosy:
The American education system from preschool through college is 95% woke, and it is cranking out tens of millions of brainwashed woke young liberals all the time. The American media is 95% woke, and they reinforce that brainwashing every day of those people's lives. Conservatives in this country have no equivalent machine to counter that production. Until we invent one, or until we take back those two institutions, the numbers over time are overwhelmingly against us. Add to that the fact that conservatives are aging and dying off, and the long-term future may look pretty bleak.

True MD. First off, now we have to pay interest and pay off the massive debt he accumulated. And the schools will be challenging. We need school choice across the country.

Having seen the TYT emotional catharsis after the 2016 election I was sorta looking forward to seeing some of the morning after sanctimony from our favorite intellectual elites. And as always, they didn’t let me down.
From the “Morning Joe” guy, to social analyst Jimmy Kimmel to Rachel Maddow to those beloved rapscallions of “The View”, to our brethren of TOB. It's been rapturous. Had I known it would be this entertaining I would’ve actually voted for Trump.
The Morning Joe guy is simply a monotonous tool. Nothing new to see there. Jimmy Kimmel is the biggest pussy on TV. If anybody SHOULD be a transgender it would be him. The TOB postmortem was the predictable “They're-all-like-real-stupid-and-Trump-is-a-fascist-felon-and-our-democracy-is-threatened” etc, etc. Again a bit tedious but that’s actually the accepted mainstream mantra.
Most interesting was “The View”. They have such a surreal perspective on reality that's fascinating to hear. The loss had nothing to do with any substantive issues or the current state of affairs. It's all about the failure of their regimented demographic cohorts to vote correctly: Hispanic males, college educated white suburban women, white males under 30, married women over 50, transgender Lithuanian farmers, whatever……….
It's like we're all supposed to have stickers on our shirts identifying our particular demographic and we're expected to vote en bloc a certain way because of our duty to that demographic. Like who the hell are these statistical monoliths to decide for themselves what's best? They've been instructed over and over who to support and yet so many just refuse to listen. It's SO disappointing for the women of The View.
Y'know. it's bad enough that I'm expected to bear the collective guilt of my white supremacist patriarchy. Now I've got to assume the burden of Joey Behar's approbation and disappointment with Americans. Gee, thanks guys.

In my entire life, I have watched less than 2 combined minutes of The View. But from those two minutes, and from the many snippets I've seen from various sources since, I can say without a doubt: Of all the celebrities and famous people on the planet who make an effort to appear smart, Whoopi Goldberg is absolutely the dumbest. If you pass her on the street, your brain will rot a little bit just from the close proximity.

I never thought I'd see a department of Government Efficiency in my lifetime... And run by the king of efficiency himself no less.
Too good to be true
