Cope And Seethe: The Thread To Document Leftist Meltdowns.


Recommended Posts

The primary difference between me and all of the whiners on the left is that I would defend their freedom of speech and rights to express these opinions instead of trying to suppress them like they would have done to the right if Harris won.

The more they talk the dumber they look. We should never silence anyone. We want to know who these wackos are (in case the blue hair and piercings don't give it away)

I've been casually observing the words and actions of these nutjobs since the election ended their reign of terror. What they provide is lots of excuses, anger, and denial over what happened. Most voters, applied some thinking, reasoning and logic in deciding the democrat's agenda represented by Harris combined with the Biden administration's record just didn't do anything for them personally. It had very little to do with misogyny or racism. So they voted for Trump, like him or not. His agenda resonated with the voters. If anything, it was a rejection of the far-left. The country's "tone" will shift more to the center.

 

At the moment, these liberal temper tantrums are of no concern. Many are amusing to see but the cold, hard truth is the far-left has substantially less power over social and political direction after the election. Suddenly, at the national level, they've lost the power to get their way and throwing a pissy fit is their only option. I expect they'll retreat back to the world of academia where they feel "safe" from challenges to their belief system but even that could be at risk. If I read the intent of the incoming administration the billions in Federal funding they depend on to pursue their goals via NGOs and University grants is going to dry up. The government shouldn't be funding "extremists" of any type.

If they think they're going to hurt people by their protest actions they're likely mistaken. If their actions involve some personal sacrifice on their part don't expect it to last very long. Pampered narcissists don't have the DNA for sacrifice. But for now enjoy the clown show.

i hope he's not stupid enough to go thru with that.  or that there are enough senators who aren't asleep.  estimates are around $3k per year more per household with tariffs.  His base are going to feel it and be unhappy.

There's a reason mercantilism was left in the 1890s.  The whole thing is comical.  The guy who, historically, has never given an eff about anyone but himself is now the protector and savior of the working class? Give me a break.  But that's immaterial.  What is material is that the people around him frequently characterize him as averse to details and ill-prepared.  So now America bet on an outdated economic approach that, essentially, only this ill-prepared buffoon thinks is a good idea.  I believe in America, and I root for America, so I genuinely hope this works.  I just don't see it, however, and I think that (a) he is going to go through with it, based on Musk's comments about near-term pain, and (b) there are going to be a lot of people who learn the hard way about tariffs and retaliatory tariffs very soon.
