If Trump Is Elected It Will Be The End Of Bureaucracy As We Know It
Other Democrats agreed that another Trump presidency would likely spell doom for lucrative but wasteful government programs, with increased efficiency and reduced tax revenue taken in by the government would have a devastating effect on their ability to become wealthy. “Our system of government has never faced a more imminent threat,” said Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. “The days of elected officials getting rich from kickbacks, secret bribes, and insider trading may be over. Serving the public should never be the motivating factor for entering public service. I fear for our nation… and my life.”
The gap between the media and the voters continues to grow:
Or, to put it another way, the media had to be nicer to Kamala than to any candidate in history
Newsbusters reports that this is the largest media bias they have ever seen. So despite the relentless propaganda, at least half the country think the media are barking mad, or they wouldn’t be doing the exact opposite of what the media wants them to do.
Call me suspicious, but I can’t see the sociopaths with power giving it up easily. Given Mike Benz withering description of 76 years of election rigging influence by US Intelligence agencies, it’s hard to believe they (and all the other beneficiaries) won’t be doing their damnedest to win one way or the other. After all their jobs may depend on it, and they’ve tried impeachment, indictments, assassinations, bankrupting him with legal cases, they’ve put his key supporters in jail, and they’ve disbarred the lawyers who tried to help him last time. What’s one more unthinkable steal? It’s just people protecting democracy, right?
Such is the weapons-grade demonization of Trump, Politico are having public nightmares that Trump might lose and take power anyway.
Activist groups have been created to defend the Blob
“The 65 Project” is a kind of legal Deathstar, threatening the lawyers who helped Donald Trump in 2020. They want to “deter future abuse of the legal system by “Big Lie Lawyers” (they actually call them that) seeking to overturn legitimate elections.” Legitimate, meaning, their favourite candidate.
Once upon a time, the opposition lawyers were just doing their job, but now they are are horrible unethical people who “risk democracy”presumably by bringing cases before the court that a judge might accidentally agree with. It’s so much more ethical to abandon the unwashed masses and deny them their day in court isn’t it?
It goes without saying that they must be afraid his lawyers might win.
Anyone want to help archive election results?
On the other side, there is a citizens ECop group looking for help to archive election results in 15 minute intervals so audits can be done later. I don’t know much about them, but it looks good. They aim to have a type of Election Results WayBack Machine. This would shine a light on any step-wise “jumps” in the vote tally.
For any US voters reading, don’t forget to vote if you still can. The more votes there are, the harder it is to sabotage.
And while you wait, Joe Rogan talks to the most amazing engineer…
As Musk says, this may be the last election if Trump doesn’t win. With mass immigration of welfare-dependent-left-leaning voters into swing states, the swing states become solid Democrat states. Soon the whole US is one big California.
More ominously, if the forces of censorship, data collection and social credit scores are not beaten back, soon the whole West will be one big China.
UPDATE: Elon seems very happy…
The cavalry has arrived.
Men are voting in record numbers.
They now realize everything is at stake.

There is a live feed election discussion on Twitter under Elon Musks handle. He is discussing results as they come in.
Print the reserve currency and inflate the edge currencies assets till it causes inflation wars which are fed using more printing.
We are almost at the ww3 stage. Nuclear war and the end of most life.
Can Trump wind back 37 Trillion of debt with drill baby drill and tariffs to get balanced trade and sustainable immigration?
Over four years this is not fiscally possible.
Its going to take 20 years. Is Vance the correct choice?
Harris means certain war.
Both sides offer Australia nothing. We have made our own mess and are fully deserving of its consequences.

No Geoff. No. Kamala offers us a bigger stronger UN, support and training for our censors, and endorsement of nutso climate policies.
Trump, just by being Trump, gets the US out of the Paris-rort, and makes it so much easier for our hapless PM to do that too. It makes our reckless renewables fantasy look so much more ridiculous.
What’s more, Trump creates some peace and our young men and women don’t have to go die in pointless wars.
We need Trump as much as the US does.

Jo,
Quick vocab check:
(Concise Oxford):
I’m afraid our PM’s good fortune is on show every day. Hopeless might be a better fit, though I’d favour embarrassing.

The 37T is the problem. The only way of winding it back is not going to be good for Australia as Trump must balance US trade with China. China is our main customer for a supply of USD. A lower USD. A higher A$.
Trump means uncertainty.
Harris means WW3 and the end of most life.
We are not prepared for these choices.
Both will hurt us.
Its like an Australian election.
Labor oblivion or Liberal stupidity.
Small time crooks everywhere versus a few BIG crooks.
A younger Trump would have meant a better chance. He is 78. He needs to fill the cabinet with people who can think beyond America First.

‘The 37T is the problem.’
They have the gold to back it and BRICS is dead in the water.
‘Harris means WW3 and the end of most life.’
That is hype, the most likely outcome is that Putin will be defeated and China, seizing the opportunity, will reclaim stolen land. Taiwan would be off the agenda.

Did you forget the /s tag?

I don’t fully agree Geoff. I believe that with Trump attempting to save America, it will slow the decline of Western Civilisation in general. I think the damage done to America (and the West) by Obama, Biden and others is severe (and deliberate), but Trump’s last term showed that the decline of America could be reversed.
This time he really needs to “drain the swamp”. Last time I think he was naive and did not realise how deep the swamp went, he even inadvertently employed some swamp creatures. But Trump can’t do it in four years. It will then be up to Vance and his successors. The evil of the Left has to be routed out forever and America returned to its roots of “one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all”.
The huge debt of the US Government, and other Western countries including Australia is a big problem. There will be severe unavoidable consequences. The only solution is for governments to stop spending on just about everything except law and order, defence, certain basic infrastructure like roads and very few other things (yes, that WILL HURT) and pay done the debt. In addition, freeing up the economy by deregulation will allow much greater economic growth as Trump showed last time which will generate more taxes with which the debt can be paid down.
With Harris, it’s more of the same, and far, far worse.

Who could they be?
Mike Pence, Bill Barr, John Bolton and John Kelly all come to mind.
And let’s not forget his press Secretary Anthony Scaramucci.

We should forget about ANZUS, remember the poms in WW2, when Singapore was about to be invaded by soldiers ‘who didn’t arrive the way we wanted them to’, help yourself, we’re busy with our own survival, the same thing is happening to the good ‘ol USA, sinking in a morass of its own making.

When Singapore fell the UK were actually in the middle of a battle that they could have easily lost. I can understand why they didn’t send all their troops to defend it.
Singapore fell in Feb 1942. At the same time the UK were in the middle of the battle for the Atlantic, shipping was being hammered by the U-boats. In mainland Europe the battle fronts were extensive, Germany reached the peak of it’s territorial gains in 1942.
If I were battling the German armed forces in 1942, from the UK viewpoint, I think the outcome for Singapore would have been the same. Sometimes you just have to fight the battle you are currently in before jumping into the ring with another combatant.

A big, fat, fluffy ginger cat sauntered up to my van today then hopped up on top of a fence-post opposite to where I was parked: he could’ve been a Maine Coon cat he was that big, but I call him Mayor Cat as I’ve seen him strolling around the beach before, looking like he’s the boss.
As he’s more orange than red, I asked him who would win today. Sage-like he slowly blinked at me and let out an almost human meow… “Trump?” I enquired. He nodded, blinked sagely once more (or was it a wink?) then carried on with his day.
I’ll take it as a good (if humorous) sign.

I will spend today reading blogs and news about the US pResedential election.
It is looking very positive for Trump at the moment.
A turning point in history I hope.

Prepare for the worst.
‘Even if Harris wins, the GOP is poised to take the Senate. This means Harris would be a lame duck right from the start. She’ll be hidden away, refusing to do press conferences, her arms, legs and mouth tied to strings pulled by her puppet masters – we’ve seen it all the past 3.5 years. Like with Biden, it’ll never succeed.’ (P.Gosselin)

Hope you’re right.

I’m worried about the amount of subterfuge by the Democrats and media. At a BBQ last weekend someone initiated a discussion on this weeks election and most present agreed that Trump should not get in. I said nothing but noted the ignorance displayed. All beholden and influenced by our media.

There are democrats (ie, Republicans) working very hard this time to detect any election fraud. I watched the mid-terms with interest to see if the remarkable 2020 late surge of Democrat votes repeated in 2022. It didn’t, which to my mind suggested that there had been fraud in 2020 (the Democrats said the 2020 surge was natural, so it could be expected to repeat). I also read a statistical analysis recently that found probably 200,000 to 300,000 Biden votes were fraudulent in places where he won by less than 100,000. Let’s hope the USA gets a clear-cut honest result this time. They need it.

HOw do you define a stepwise tally change? It is not like every vote gets added to the tally when it is counted. A booth, an area, a county or whatever will add a number of votes at once. It is all steps and of different magnitudes. You made this error last election.

0915 Queensland time, and results now just starting to roll in at the Politico site.
If you scroll to the bottom, you’ll see which States close their Polling places next, so I am thinking that a better result might begin after they close, and that will be 100 Queensland time.
Tony.

This reminds me of the video in this article:
on substack: ‘bad cattitude’: “AP news is not news, it’s paid for marketing”
pay the piper, call the tune. see how AP sings for its supper. el gato malo May 23, 2023
– “vaccines are safe and effective”….. “no one is safe until everyone is safe”….
is now replaced with:
– “this is the end of democracy”…..
