I'm in disbelief over the unofficial results of this year's elections.
There's no reason for this to be happening. No reason at all. Gas prices? No way.
"No thanks" to $5000? Because gas is a little more expensive than it was a year ago?
I don't buy it.

I heard that an Obama judge ordered the money be given back to the affected parties (foreign countries.)
"I heard" "I've been told" "Someone said..."
some of the most common utterances from people suffering from rectal-cranial inversion syndrome.
or the $1000-$1500 rebates to ACA purchasers HSA accounts for

I hope so, but consider the possibility that voters in MI, PA, and NY
are just really dumb. "Gas prices!?" "War!?" Maybe a lot of people are fixated on the wrong issues.
1. For Biden, there were 40 million voters that cast ballots that never casted ballots before or since. This election it looks to be 20 million "ghost" voters.
The Dow was up 1,569 points the day after the election, when the news
was all about the Blue Tsunami. Still, the American people made it quite clear that they want the Democrats to rein in billionaires, regulate
tech, and do something about data centers wiping out farmland and
hogging electricity.
Democrats did not create the bubble we're in. Republicans and oligarchs did that. Bubbles tend to bust.
But "promised?" I don't think he ever promised. He didn't pinky-swear.
I believe this to be true because the media and or the Democrats did not dispute these statements... ever once.
If they had, I'm sure you would have known, since you know every thing
and much more than everything.
Nice response, well thought out!!!

That's the greed in my statement...
US citizens with 1 Trillion to play with, save or invest, would have
added to the growth of the market as well.
Recall Barry did not understand how Trump was going to bring back manufacturing...
In short Trump told businesses, and governments, that if they wanted access to the largest consumer market in the world they'd have to pay a tariff to do so.... OR... They can avoid said tariffs if they build
their manufacturing facilities in the US and employ the US citizens
while making their products in the US.
The FEAR that will drive the market over the days to come...
Oh wow. You have quite a talent for irony, too, and the three exclamation points really give it a kick.
That always drives the market.
Fear that your competitor may beat you and the fact that companies exist for the purpose of making money for their owners.
That's because the Left always ignores any facts that go counter to
their false Narrative.
The media has been lying by omission for literally decades now and we
all know it (except for the Leftoids).
We need to remember that the Elitists believe that only THEY can
propertly rule the world and the only way prosperity (for them, of
course) can happen is if we aren't allowed to spend our money as we see fit.
That's because Osama has never done any work in his life.
So way back, like 100 years, we had no income tax. The gov't was basically run on tariffs. Some world wars messed that up (no trade = no tariffs) so we had income tax for a while. Then the Lefties decided to use tariffs as an income source, instead of leverage and that caused problems. So they did what all good ignorant people do: reverted to
child like thinking. i.e. Tariffs Bad. Income Tax Good.
IHMO: No one should be allowed to run for office without having spent
time running a business.
Years to come. The fear of uncertainity will cause more problems.
It takes a while, and lots of money, to build a manufacturing plant. Companies don't want to do this unless they are pretty sure that they
will see a return on their investment. Hence why companies don't build anything in communist countries.
Sorry, I'll lay off the facts with you.
But "promised?" I don't think he ever promised. He didn't pinky-swear
He did, repeatedly...
He said if the Republicans kept control of the house and senate, read
that again if you need to, kept control of the house and senate he's
used 1 Trillion of the 22.5 Trillion he had access to to give 5K to
every adult US citizen living in the US.

There is some math and thinking to do with the market, but it does run
on those 2 things.
I think we are heading for some interesting things for the next 60'ish days a head.
I can handles the elites, it's the white female liberals that are destroying the west.
I understand this... I thought Presidents had advisors that told them
neat ideas.
The US was paying the highest drug prices. In essence the US was subsidizing the cost of research for new drugs for the entire world.
They guy always works the angle to help the citizens of America.
I was thinking about why in F**k do we have the 16th Amendment anyway.
The country was making a sh!t load of money off of tariffs, so what was the need?
I wished the amendment capped it at 10% or something. The Democrats
want to redistribute income.
Hence if the Democrats like communism so much they should move to a communist country.
I think Trump should negotiate with Canada and trade 1 conservative Canadians for 3 Liberal Americans.
When you hit me with one of your facts, be sure to give it three exclamation points, else I might not recognize it as one of your facts.
Now I see what you mean, but I'm referring to way back when Elon Musk was working as a white house volunteer and Trump mentioned the possibility
of $5000 DOGE dividend checks, but back then it wasn't a promise, it was
a "possibility that we're looking into." It wasn't until much later that it turned into "vote red and if we keep the house and senate then I promise the $5000 checks."
For the Elitists, it's fear that they aren't Elite and having all the money.
I think so too. 7 million votes cast in Wisc, but only 4 million
voters. 20 million "ghost" voters in Texas.
If this is allowed to stand, there will be civil war and the leftoids won't be the winners.
They believe that they are part of the Elitists. But are too stupid to see that they are only useful idiots.
The advisors are supposed to advise, but it's still up to the President. It was obvious that Obama 2.0 (i.e. Biden) was not in charge. But it's become obvious that Obama 1.0 wasn't in charge either. He was doing
what he was told. The only difference between 1.0 and 2.0 is that 1.0 could follow complex instructions - and not soil himself or wander off.
That's been going on for a long time - long before Osama. I'm glad that Trump put a stop to that.
Yup. But the Elitists don't like that since it takes power AWAY from
them and puts it back in to our hands.
I hear that we now have email evidence of collusion to keep fuel prices high until the midterms to make Trump look bad, but to make the
Democrats look good. Which also implies that the "fix" was in for the midterms for a long time. The word "conspiracy" (in a legal way) comes
to mind now.
One of the big problems we've had as a country is evaluating policies on their INTENT not their OUTCOME.
I think Trump should negotiate with Canada and trade 1 conservative Canadians for 3 Liberal Americans.
Not even Carney is stupid enough to do that.
That's like saying "I'll trade you 3 useless people for a useful one."

I don't recall that... I have what I think might explain it... If Trump was to give $5,000.00 out of money DOGE saved he'd more have to get congress to approve it in some way, the budget. We had Thune as a
Senate leader and we had the Democrats vote no on everything.
This other 5K Trump promised was coming from he had in his hand, the 22.5 Trillion, and may not have needed congressional approval.

I think we are in the times where the Elites are not listening to the population.
Recall the French revolution?? "Let them eat cake" the
elites misreads the room for too long and all hell breaks loose.
I know, somethings up. I think Texas should do a hand recount and
check the list of people who voted against the list of citizens.
We could have had the Save Act but we had Thune as a leader.
I saw a clip today where there was a Democrat angry and foaming at the mouth pissed off that the Democrats weren't hanging and or killing Republicans.
They claim to be a big tent party, welp, now they have a group of
people that want to take other peoples assets to be redistributed to
those that didn't earn it. Others in that tent want the government support to open more Learing Centers, whereas others want open borders, Food Stamps and Universal Health Care, the list goes on.
This Democrat party will be screwed if they don't impeach everyone and burn the place down.
I think Barry did what he did, 1.0 or 2.0, to the US fail. He might
get his wish. If the Democrats reopen the border it'll be like France, current times, within the months ahead.
It's been going on forever. The US has rebuilt Europe twice now, 1st
and 2nd world wars. Canada leached off the US with their Trade Deals.
I saw something quickly today that the US has given multiple TRILLIONS,
I think it was 6, to help them establish themselves. AND we have
nothing to show for it, nothing.
I'm sure the NGOs did well, but Africa did not.
I heard that the Blue cities/states were even adding gas taxes and
don't forget that Ukraine was bombing refineries as well.
So the 16th Amendment came about, and it did so quickly. There was no upper limit added in giving them the ability to charge what level they want.
That explains that. There was no way to get the DOGE money to the taxpayers because it wasn't allocated for that. I wonder what did become of it then.
The tariff money went back to the countries who've been ripping us off, right?
This other 5K Trump promised was coming from he had in his hand, the Trillion, and may not have needed congressional approval.
How though? Was that the tariff money he was referring to? It don't
really matter, unless some leftie wants to know ;)
Most people don't, because we can correct assess the threat. But
Elitists are not rational people. They tend to see "boogymen" everywhere.
The Elitists never listen to the population. We are no different than cattle to them.
Recall the French revolution?? "Let them eat cake" the
elites misreads the room for too long and all hell breaks loose.
Yup. We are getting close, it seems.
An audit of the votes and voter rolls are in order. But I know that
here in Michigan, our SoS (now gov-elect), stonewalled for years on that for 2020.
Thune is a traitor. His accounts need to be audited to see who's
funding him.
We did at one point. Europe squandered it. "Good times create weak
men."
You might not get any free sh!t this election cycle. Get excited about the future. Trump was saying that he might be able to balance the
budget after DOGE et al. take care of all the fraud waste and abuse.
Think of what this means to the debt and you children/grandchildren future, and the countries future for that matter.
Yea, but how long can we stay excited about that? The left is hungrier than ever for money. As soon as Trump is out of the way, we'll all be fighting over a pork chop.

Thune is a traitor. His accounts need to be audited to see who's

He wants to be the minority leader and he wants a secret ballot so that those who voted for him won't be targeted.
This is why
I think my grand-babies will have to fight their way out of this.

Relax a little... You're not going to get a handout, not even with the Democrats in charge. The admin has a few weeks to cram through some judges and other positions they were waiting on the Senate to process.
More like so we don't find out who the other RINOs are.
My hope is that the next 2 years Trump can wreck the Left's fraud
machines so that we can spend decades fixing everything.
I'm not looking for a handout. Come on Joe - you know me a little better than that by now. I think you're confusing something I said with
something the leftie said.
I was explaining to the leftie that I don't recall President Trump every promising anything; no promise to build the wall, no promise to send everyone $5000, no promises.
"If a certain criteria is met we're gonna send everyone $5000"
is different from:
"I PROMISE that we're going to send everyone $5000 no matter what."
Leftists only hear keywords and never context, so I had to spell it out for the guy.
Commies are running 4 of the largest cities in the US. We might be at
the end point already.
Silver lining... Texas may be doing a hand recount.

Democracy, Republicans are starting to look like the Democrats.
Me too... I was watching someone today talking to Rubio and she was complaining about USAID being cut.
Poor thing lost her funding :(
That should be done in a lot of places. This seems like a gigantic swindle.
Here in my county the Communist governor "won" by a wide margin, but so did the Ultra-MAGA sheriff. What sense does that make? Whoever was in charge of the big fraud operation made a big mistake there - because it makes no sense for the results to end up this way.
But despite everything, I'm grateful for my awesome MAGA sheriff.

Van Joans talks about the con
I still don't get it. I don't use any social media systems though, not Facebook, X, Instagram, nothing. Is that why I don't know what he's talking about? Was there a big propaganda effort deployed on those platforms?
The propaganda never reached me, not even if it tried. I saw propaganda
on Fox News because that's the only news site that I read (besides my local news site.) But even if it reached most of America, I find it hard to believe that our smart voters are that gullable. I don't believe
Glenn Beck about this, and I think Van Jones is just talking out his butthole like he always does.
