   Adam and Eve (or at least Adam) were made supposedly in God’s image.

   Which mean God has a navel.

   Which raises a whole ’nother line of questions………..

   Let’s see, most other “civilized” countries won’t let you immigrate there unless you either pay HUGE amounts in fees, bring multi-millions of business with you, and/or have a particularly desirable skill set wanted by that country………. but not the United States of late.

   Musk, Thiel, and Murdoch seem to fit those categories.

   As I said, Trump built upon the precedent set by Obama. Trump basically stole every trick in the Obama/DNC playbook (built upon Saul Alinsky’s “Rules For Radicals”) and used them against the Democrats—and just slightly better, thus just slightly beating them.

   If you didn’t object when Obama used them to try and bypass Congress, then don’t complain if and when Trump uses them in a similar fashion.

   I remind all that in 1980, the newly-elected Ronald Reagan was determined to eliminate the nine-year-old Amtrak network. It was an outright campaign promise of his

   Amtrak celebrated its 53rd birthday in 2024, and new locos are being delivered and new trainsets are on order.

   Trump may WANT to “deport all the illegals on Day One,” but none of his campaign promises will be that easy even with a razor-thin Republican majority in Congress. And if he tries using “signing statements” or “executive orders” to make things happen without Congressional approval, you will have to thank the precedent set by both Obama and Obama II (a.k.a. Biden).

   I knew two individuals, older bureaucrats in Washington D.C., who made sincere, serious plans to move to Australia with their spouses after Bush 43 was RE-elected. They even proclaimed it to everyone who would listen. Months later they were still here, and trying their best to pretend they never said anything like that.

   I later found out from mutual associates that they had indeed inquired, but Australia would have charged them basically their entire life’s savings in immigration fees, leaving them really not that much to either retire on or buy a place to live………..

   According to other associates, including one who actually DID leave for the Isle of Man, unless you bring unique and hotly desired skils, or an entire company with multi-millions with you, the same is true of most other “civilized” “sorta-socialist” places any American might want to “flee” to—they’ll soak you like heck for your share of the “social safety net” you haven’t been paying into for years.

   There was a gay man running for president. Maybe you could have considered voting for him.

   Oh, wait—the same media that hypes “LGBTQIA Pride” at every available opportunity wouldn’t acknowledge his existence……………

   I’d post a link or recipe for sauce to go with the crow you now have to eat, but they don’t allow links here…………………..

   So, at this point, the firm prediction is that Democrats are going to lead a charge against both the Electoral College AND the popular vote………………..

   “On the one side there’s tolerance and equality of all ethnicity and religion”

   Except White Christians and Jews, especially males. They’re the only group left you’re openly allowed (and even encouraged) to denigrate, attack, and mock. Or, on college campuses, even openly physically attack.
