That’s been my point all along.
Even if I agree with what he is doing, the way he is going about it is going to get us killed in 2026.

THIS is a great argument against “democracy” and for benevolent dictatorship. If Trump were actually a dictator like the left claims, he would be free to do all this without fear of voter backlash against a Republican held Congress (or even the WH in 2028).  He would be able to force us all to undergo short term pain for long term gain for however long it takes. Of course the whole problem with dictatorships is they’re often not benevolent. But democracies can be just as bad. They decay into rule by the stupid, uninformed and uneducated.

There was good reason voting in the U.S. was originally limited to white male property owners over the age of 21. (Varied by state but that was the general rule.) While I don’t agree with using race and sex to deny you the right to vote, it did work out statistically to limit voting to the more educated, and to those with direct responsibility for their stake in the economy.

But over time we expanded voting rights to demographics that were on average less educated, less invested in the economic engine, or more likely to vote on emotion rather than facts. I’m looking at women!  Turns out giving blacks the vote was a good thing, until they flipped en masse to Democrat after the Democratic party lured them into destroying their nuclear families and embracing parasitism.

But giving women the vote was a disaster. Women are default economic parasites, needing to be supported by a man because their job is to make babies to continue the species. A job they are now abandoning in droves. They entered the workforce and devalued men’s jobs by half but somehow fail to change their voting to support good economic policy and instead still favor parasitic policies (socialism, communism). Methinks they protest too much about being “strong and independent” while still thinking the world owes them a financial safety net.

The other massive stupid mistake was dropping the voting age to 18. I understand the argument about “if you’re old enough to go to war you should be able to vote” but I dispute that. Just because an 18 year old male is hard wired to follow another male into battle to protect his group does not give him insight into geopolitics or macroeconomics and make him a wise voter.

Our problem is the voters. If we just let Trump do his thing unfettered, things will sort themselves out. But do we have enough time before the voters fuck us in the ass, or the left drags us into civil war?

   
 
   HAVE  YOU EVER BEEN GUILTY OF LOOKING AT OTHERS YOUR OWN AGE AND  THINKING, SURELY I CAN'T LOOK THAT OLD.

 

WELL . . . YOU'LL LOVE  THIS ONE. 

 

MY NAME IS ALICE , AND I  WAS SITTING IN THE WAITING ROOM FOR MY FIRST APPOINTMENT WITH A  NEW DENTIST. 

 

 

 

I NOTICED HIS DDS DIPLOMA  ON THE WALL, WHICH BORE HIS FULL NAME. SUDDENLY, I REMEMBERED A  TALL, HANDSOME, DARK-HAIRED BOY WITH THE SAME NAME HAD BEEN IN MY  HIGH SCHOOL CLASS SOME 30-ODD YEARS AGO.

 

 

 

COULD HE BE THE SAME GUY  THAT I HAD A SECRET CRUSH ON, WAY BACK THEN?

 

 

 

UPON SEEING HIM, HOWEVER,  I QUICKLY DISCARDED ANY SUCH THOUGHT.

 

 

 

THIS BALDING, GRAY-HAIRED  MAN WITH THE DEEPLY LINED FACE WAS WAY TOO OLD TO HAVE BEEN MY  CLASSMATE. 

 

 

 

AFTER HE EXAMINED MY  TEETH, I ASKED HIM IF HE HAD ATTENDED MORGAN PARK HIGH SCHOOL  ..

 

 

 

'YES. YES, I DID. I'M A  MUSTANG,' HE GLEAMED WITH PRIDE.

 

 

 

WHEN DID YOU GRADUATE?' I  ASKED.

 

 

 

HE ANSWERED, 'IN 1975. WHY  DO YOU ASK?' 

 

 

 

YOU WERE IN MY CLASS!', I  EXCLAIMED. 

 

 

 

HE LOOKED AT ME  CLOSELY. 

 

 

 

THEN, THAT  UGLY,

 

 

 

OLD,

 

 

 

BALD,

 

 

 

WRINKLED  FACED,

 

 

 

FAT-ASSED,

 

 

 

GRAY-HAIRED,

 

 

 

DECREPIT

 

 

 

SON-OF-A-BITCH

 

 

 

ASKED,

 

 

 

'WHAT DID YOU  TEACH??? 

Finally someone who threatened to leave did so.

rosie o’donnell took her fat ass and useless rants to Ireland where she can live among people hovering under a growing cloud of government intervention threatening free speech and getting worse by the day.

The dumb ass claims she looks forward to living among free people and will come back when America is safer.

Fuck her and her useless, idiotic, bullshit.

I hope the door did hit her in the ass on the way out.

Cause of death identified. I did not see this coming, but it’s absolutely believable.

The wife died first, a week before Gene did, from hantavirus infection. HPS (Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome), a virus transmitted to humans by the common deer mouse, ubiquitous in the U.S.  Hint, if you get mice in your house, discard anything they nested in and clean the area throughly while wearing mask and rubber gloves, using methods that don’t raise dust (do not vacuum or sweep) and go heavy on the disinfectant.  If you fall sick within 1-8 weeks, get medical help immediately.  HPS has a 30-60% fatality rate, it’s nothing to mess with.

HPS starts like regular flu. She probably thought that’s all it was. But moves to phase 2, cardiogenic shock (sudden heart failure) which can render you unconscious, unable to call for help, and quickly kill you.  That’s likely what happened.

She was likely his caretaker. He was severely demented. If you’ve know anyone with Alzheimer’s, you can understand how he could have lived for a week without calling for help. Maybe he wandered around looking for her, found her, maybe did or did not understand she was dead, but by the time he went to look for a phone to call for help, if he even understood that’s what you should do, totally forgot what just happened, and thought she was just in the other room.  Rinse repeat.

She’s no longer taking care of him so he’s not taking his BP meds on time (open bottles and pills lying around betrays his confused attempts to sort it out), she isn’t feeding him or giving him drinks. He doesn’t remember to eat or drink or if he did, can’t remember how to find and prepare things.  The dehydration and stress on his body, and elevated BP from not taking his meds precipitates heart failure, and the finding of cause of death, complicated by Alzheimer’s.

Maybe the dog was put in the closet by a confused Gene when it kept pestering him to fill its water and food bowl and he didn’t know that’s what it wanted.

This is absolutely believable, after dealing with demented parents, and having had to do the mouse cleanup myself.

It means becoming a team to face the world together

Married 25, together close to 30. We have taken on the world, had each other's back, and are still best friends, even after retirement when we're together almost all the time. Doesn't get any better than that!

This is wonderful news. Now there is some hope for Justice.
