Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Michael Wolff: Trump Exposed Media as Smug IncompetentsAnd Michael Wolff is on the left side of things. And also part of the media.The media turned itself into the opposition and, accordingly, was voted down as the new political reality emerged: Ads don't work, polls don't work, celebrities don’t work, media endorsements don’t work, ground games don't work. Not only did the media get almost everything about this presidential election wrong, but it became the central issue, or the stand-in for all those issues, that the great new American Trump Party voted against. The transmutation of political identities has arguably devolved into two parties: the Trump one, the angry retro people, and the Media Party, representing the smug modern people, each anathema to and uncomprehending of the other. Certainly, there was no moment in the campaign where the Media Party did not see itself as a virtuous and, most often, determinative factor in the race. Given this, the chants of "CNN sucks" at Trump rallies should not have been entirely surprising. But they were. The media took this as a comment about press freedom rather than its own failure to read the zeitgeist. In fact, it largely failed to tell any story other than its own. ... In a situation that only had two possible outcomes, nobody was even able to pretend they had contemplated both.... It all washed away. Beyonce. The tax returns. The theoretical blue wall. Trump as sexual predator. Putin. His shambolic debate performances. Hispanics. Indeed, every aspect of the media narrative, dust. This narrative not only did not diminish him, it fortified him. The criticism of Trump defined the people who were criticizing him, reliably giving the counter-puncher something to punch. It was a juicy target. The Media Party not only fashioned the takedown narrative and demanded a special sort of allegiance to it - Twitter serving as the orthodoxy echo chamber -- but, suspending most ordinary conflict rules, according to the Center for Public Integrity, gave lots of cash to Hillary. The media turned itself into the opposition and, accordingly, was voted down. And it was a failure of modern journalistic technique too. It was the day the data died. All of the money poured by a financially challenged media industry into polls and polling analysis was for naught. It profoundly misinformed. It created a compelling and powerful narrative that was the opposite of what was actually happening. There may be few instances, except perhaps under authoritarian regimes, where the media has so successfully propounded a view of events not only of its own making but at such odds with reality.I have long criticized Twitter as being a very insidious conformity-creating engine, and have long advised people to get out of the sheltered comfort of their no-dissent-desired Twitter claques and behind-the-scenes list-servs and actually engage with people who will challenge their beliefs, rather that spending 10 hours a day having their thoughts validated by fellow Cultists. And I've also said repeatedly these "thoughts" are by and large not "thoughts" at all, as they were never thought by the person parroting them. Beliefs no longer come out of someone's own brain as he sits alone and thinks about his situation; no, thoughts are now Twittered into someone's brain by the relentless yapping of the Twitter herd. Beliefs are no longer being intellectualized into existence, but simply socialized into people through conformity rituals and group loyalty shibboleth recitations. Thinking is not a team sport. It is not a group project. Deciding what you think is not a collaborative project to undertake with 1000 of your Very Bestest Fake Internet Friends on Twitter. It never has been. It never will be.

This wholly stolen from poster at WZ:
Hey, how come Obama didn't say THIS to those protesting Trump's win? "You don't like a particular policy or a particular president? Then argue for your position. Go out there and win an election. Push to change it. But don't break it. Don't break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building. That's not being faithful to what this country's about." He sure said this to dissatisfied Republicans, back in 2013. Hypocrite. Posted by: Jukin,The Deplorable at November 11, 2016 06:39 PM (cOHS7) 8
"the angry retro people, and the Media Party, representing the smug
modern people, each anathema to and uncomprehending of the other." no, I agree with zombie's little screed on this. "We" fully comprehend them ... how could we not? We are inundated with their cultural Marxist propaganda at every turn, on every station, in every sitcom, and especially from every college kid. Our morning news readers spew DNC talking points ... we finally said no, eff off, we don't even care how much you hate us. The working blue collar class that Mike Rowe knows ... they have gotten it long and hard, they showed up and voted and said "finally a man that says America First, without feeling shamed or denouncing his white privilege.

I like how Mike Rowe puts it
http://tinyurl.com/hz3uwpu For what it's worth, Carol, I don't think Donald Trump won by tapping into America's "racist underbelly," and I don't think Hillary lost because she's a woman. I think a majority of people who voted in this election did so in spite of their many misgivings about the character of both candidates. That's why it's very dangerous to argue that Clinton supporters condone lying under oath and obstructing justice. Just as it's equally dangerous to suggest a Trump supporter condones gross generalizations about foreigners and women. These two candidates were the choices we gave ourselves, and each came with a heaping helping of vulgarity and impropriety. Yeah, it was dirty job for sure, but the winner was NOT decided by a racist and craven nation -- it was decided by millions of disgusted Americans desperate for real change. The people did not want a politician. The people wanted to be seen. Donald Trump convinced those people that he could see them. Hillary Clinton did not.

Recall that earlier this year, The New York Times, of all people, ran a long piece about Ben Rhodes, the failed novelist who is now Obama's key foreign policy adviser (because it's all about building the Narrative, you see).

I like the few voices willing to yell at their colleges, and themselves, but I don't think Trump losing is BIG enough, honestly.
It took a 9/11 to change some liberal minds. Trump's a big jolt to their system, but he isn't going to make them repudiate their worldview. They're view, that they're good and we're bad, is part of their identity. We haven't hurt them enough to make them question their identity. Right now, they're pointing fingers. Then assigning blame. Then they'll regroup and come after us and Trump, again. The war isn't over. It's just, finally, getting to a place where we can try to make up some lost ground.

Where it goes from here may be, to some extent, in the hands of the new administration.
The well-known and much-derided passivity of the Bush admin. in the face of increasingly insane hysteria and slander simply cannot be repeated. Looking at Trump's combative style, incl. esp. with the press, it seems hard to imagine he will repeat Bush's huge error (not an error because it hurt him, he's not the point - error because it hurt the country, esp. as national policy was distorted and slandered non-stop without any correction). It's almost impossible to believe, what a perfect opportunity this is to decisively change the reaction to the unprofessional, unethical, dangerous press. A press secretary and operation that has Trump's combativeness and clear-headedness on this matter could actually make a difference. FFS, no FFFFFFFFFS, CHALLENGE THE FALSE PREMISE OF MOST QUESTIONS. If you have to use 90% of your answer time refuting and correcting false premises, do so. Guess what?

O/T but Trump has basically caved on repealing Obamacare.
The coverage of those with preexisting conditions, the coverage of your 25-year-old, the free birth control pills, all way too popular. He says he wants to keep all that. So no repeal. Maybe a tiny bit of amending. That's all we'll see, if even that. And oh, mandate bad. And oh, costs way too high. But the problem is if you drop the mandate, but want the rest, costs will blow through the sky and not just the roof. Hey, it's time for some agave-based blanco tequila.

Typical after-the-fact self reflection. We'll go through this cycle in another four years:
Media fellates and covers for Democrat nominee, and frames all opposition to Dem as racist, sexist, Nazism. From beginning to end of election. After election, media chides itself for being too one-sided during election. Would be nice for these assholes to self-reflect in-the-moment for once.

Good luck when no one reads your papers, watches your TV shows. Good luck when everyone comes to know you for what you are. I look forward to the day when Michael and his evil cohorts in the media are are broke and homeless.

Why can't they just report the news without it being painfully obvious that they are taking sides?
Because they didn't get into the job to report the news. They aren't interested in information and facts. They got into the news to "make a difference" doing something they like to do and get paid well. Generations have been raised thinking this is their end goal in life. To make a difference, leave the world a better place, and live comfortably doing what they like in the process. That's all they have as a goal in life. That's what they believe they exist for. Its completely self-focused and has nothing to do with the job or doing it well. The "make the world a better place" bit isn't because of some transcendent morality or altruism, it makes them feel better about themselves and gives them brownie points bragging to others. The job is irrelevant, its just what they do because they like to and get money to have fun with. Its not about the job or doing it well. Its about themselves feeling good about themselves "making a difference." Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at November 11, 2016 07:02 PM (39g3+) 84

little shyning I think Don and others here are right - let's look at things a bit closer before writing off whole swathes of Trump's agenda within 72 hours of his victory (or believing HE has done so).
However Trump's team's reaction to this perceived shift could be important. It will show both how alert they are, and how well they understand that Trump is a vehicle, a weapon, not a brand or a cult figure. And since we're on the topic, THIS is exactly what you can expect to see for the next several months - constant press reports, most probably wrong, that one central Trump agenda item or another is being jettisoned. This is EXACTLY what the press's next mode looks like, folks. Just watch. Several stories like this per week. Posted by: rhomboid at November 11, 2016 07:05 PM (QDnY+) 94

I just saw at the Daily Mail which I haven't seen anywhere else, that Trump has said he will not take "even one dollar" of the presidential salary.
Re pre-existing conditions. Insurance is a stupid model for health care (save catastrophic stuff -- just as autoinsurance doesn't even contemplate covering stuff like oil changes, new tires, fixing broken shit and routine stuff). However, that's the way we idiots are doing it, and you're not going to change that overnight. I read some stuff back during the O-care debate and passage that some federal subsidy, to essentially buy coverage for pre-existing conditions, while not cheap, would be far cheaper than O-care itself. I see something like that coming. It will be some federal coverage of high-risk pools. Me, I'd make it so that the high risk pool premium would be about the same as normal risk pools. Those in them would pay something, the same as everyone else roughly, with Uncle making up the difference. That will be far cheaper than the mess we've got now.

Somewhere around Walter Cronkite's era, commentary/opinion became integral with reporting. The management was fine with it, and so it became the definition of 'journalism'. The complete absence of criticism from within the trade became tacit promotion.
Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at November 11, 2016 07:15 PM (kCDOM) Woodward and Bernstein. After them, every otherwise unemployable retard wanted to become a "journalist." Yeah, Cronkite was a Red, but we didn't know at the time, any more than Time magazine readers knew that Whitaker Chambers was a Red when he was a senior editor there. But the "activist" (how I hate that word) journalist crap started with Woodward and Bernstein, and their hit job on Nixon, who probably was sorry he'd ever heard of Whitaker Chambers, because that's what occasioned the NYT's and WaPo's payback.

Posted by: Fuq the Media at November 11, 2016 07:21 PM (Drp7E) This. He's a negotiator. To negotiate effectively with another party, that party has to have something to lose if the negotiation should not be successful. Trump stakes out an extreme position to give them something to lose, therefore to have reason to negotiate with him. So, for example, Trump talks about pulling out of NATO. I very much doubt that he seriously means to do that, but now he's got the bargaining position to extract concessions from our NATO partners who have been getting a free ride at our expense. They know that if they don't play ball, he just might pull of NATO. It's possible, which is part of the strength of being a bit unpredictable. It's like walking near a minefield. If you know exactly where the minefield is, you are willing to walk right up to the edge of it. But if you only know roughly where it probably is, to give the entire area a very wide berth.

Of course it could be the nature of the election and not the campaign tactics.

I went to my local Trump rally. I voted for him, and early. I did not think he could win, but I sorely hoped he would. I yard-signed for him, I cheered for him to win the nomination from the early days, because I thought that he was the only one with enough star power to outshine the Haggard Queen.
But I have been disappointed in him whenever he walked back a position, and he has done a lot of walk-backs. He said no muslims and then walked it back. He has waffled on the wall. He seemed for a while during the last month of the campaign to wander off-message and do the stupid tweet thing, but in the final fifteen days something got him on-message. I bet it was Kellyanne. When we saw him live in Greeley at the rally, with only ten days to go, he was on-message and performed from the teleprompter. As he should. But I have a sinking feeling that he is not going to be able to nuke O'care, and the reports on WHAT HE ACTUALLY SAID about this after his Thursday meet with Zero in the WH are sending the signal that he'll not follow through. If he does not move with a single hard message, and do all the phone calls and private meets with Ryan and McConnell and others (as LBJ would have done), he will not succeed. I don't think he can pull it off, and he seems to be saying just that. Posted by: the littl shyning man at November 11, 2016 07:29 PM (U6f54) 207

Rubio, Jeb!, Walker, Perry, Jindal... ALL of them lose this election. Because all of them would have censored themselves to appeal to that rarest of all Unicorns, the middle-of-the-road undecided voter. None of them tapped into the obvious voter anger about illegal immigration, and none of them would have punched the media in its fat, stupid face as early and often and effectively (Trump's dismissiveness made them look *foolish* to Americans) as Trump did. I'm now of the mind that Trump was the only guy who could've won this thing, and I don't particularly like Trump all that much. Posted by: holygoat at November 11, 2016 07:17 PM (DbBV5) That was pretty much my take during the primaries, and why I was an early supporter of Trump. (Walker and Paul were my first two choices, but after that it was Trump all the way, and I never looked back.) Any Republican would have been slandered and demonized by the media. Rubio might have had a chance as the Historic First Hispanic, and he was more likable than Hillary, but if the media trained their guns on him he would have folded like a wet noodle. And even if he won, we would probably end up with amnesty, so what would be the point? We absolutely needed someone who could take the fight to the media, and Trump was pretty much the only one who could and would. And I actually found myself liking him more and more as the campaign went on. Posted by: rickl the deplorable at November 11, 2016 07:30 PM (sdi6R) 216

Preibus has spoken extensively on the amount of money, well over a $100 million, and manpower they have invested since 2012 to build a field organization to match the DNCs and to surpass their voter targeting and turnout. It really isn't true that Trump won this thing on his own. He got more help from the Party than any Republican ever had and even Trump never stops praising Preibus and the help he provided.

little shyning (whom I would not dub a troll BTW), I think as JackStraw documented and I myself heard in a few Trump appearances, the pre-existing condition and 26-yr old "children" things were sometimes carved out as things that might not go away.
The 26-yr old thing is a stupid subsidy only made necessary by the insane unnecessary prices in medical care in general (themselves mostly the result of state/federal meddling and other subsidies). Pre-existing is not "insurance", it's safety-net (welfare), but a self-limiting kind most people would support. High-risk pools, as Don mentioned above, have actually been experimented with for years (don't think the results have been too good, which I find somewhat puzzling). The "heart" of O-care, the part that means millions have to go without for the first time in their lives or drain their $$$ into something before the law was twice the cable bill (my experience), and which will be hurting more and more people now, and which is insolvent and unsustainable, are the subsidized plans from the exchanges and the disastrous distortion of all other plans that has destroyed the last elements of markets and choice in the private segment, and is now starting to bleed into the group plans via huge cost rises. Safety net for uninsurables and a stupid tax subsidy for children to 26 years - if that's all that's left of O-care - would be spectacular, and a large part of what I even hope for under the new administration.

When I lived in Europe I used to hang this one around Europeans' necks. They'd go off on how stupid Americans are, and how lousy our leaders are. Now it didn't matter if they were French, British, German, or Italian, for each of those countries had some pretty appalling leaders that brought their countries to the brink of disaster (Britain) or over the precipice into disaster (the others).

I think I would like to challenge the assertion that for any other Republican this was a lay up, and somehow Trump made the miracle full court 3 at the buzzer. Ex: some troll kept posting on election night, prior to the final returns, how Rubio was romping, had 539 elector all votes in Broward alone, etc. Why would Ohio vote for him? Why Penn or Wisconsin or Michigan? These folks came out specifically for Trump. He read them better than anyone else.

Rubio, Jeb!, Walker, Perry, Jindal... ALL of them lose this election.
Because all of them would have censored themselves to appeal to that rarest of all Unicorns, the middle-of-the-road undecided voter. None of them tapped into the obvious voter anger about illegal immigration, and none of them would have punched the media in its fat, stupid face as early and often and effectively (Trump's dismissiveness made them look *foolish* to Americans) as Trump did. I'm now of the mind that Trump was the only guy who could've won this thing, and I don't particularly like Trump all that much. Posted by: holygoat at November 11, 2016 07:17 PM (DbBV5) Yep! Totally agree. It reached a breaking point; the man said he thinks only Trump could have won, and I have to agree. I've been so frustrated by the GOP's desire to 'not look mean' that we've let the Dems define the message and walk all over us, whilst we say, "can I have s'more please?". Trump called them on their shit, and made it plain he's against illegal immigration and not establishment and pro-America; things the Dems and GOPe have been weak on. McDouchewad didn't even say shit about ICANN in the last budget meeting! It was some state AGs that had to protect it, and Congress has abrogated budget duty too. They are phoning it in, and Trump was energetic, and called out ppl in his own party, which I think the masses liked. I HOPE he follows through, and does what he promised. I hope Trump pushes Kate's law, and does a lot to turn off the illegal immigrant spigot and moves to fixing the economy and cutting entitlements. He talked a good game, I think he'll get at least some good shit done. Posted by: atomicplaygirl (Gab: atomicplaygirl) at November 11, 2016 08:01 PM (Gim9y) 384

Much easier to call Trump voters racist, ignorant white people and believe that Trump's victory is some kind of fluke. And that includes journalists on the left and the right.

Boehner told Breitbart News that he does not think Speaker Paul D. Ryan ( R.-Wis. ) has the votes to keep his gavel. "I just don't think he has the votes," said Rep. Timothy A. Huelskamp (R.-Kansas), who lost his primary Aug. 2 and returns to private life after this session of Congress. Huelskamp said he is concerned that the House Republican leadership is in a hurry to, first, get itself rubber-stamped inside the conference and then to proceed with an aggressive lame duck agenda. Many House conservatives have called for the leadership elections to be moved forward from the scheduled Nov. 15 event, he said. It is important to watch what the GOP leadership does before returning Ryan, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Majority Whip Steve Scalise, and Republican Conference Chairwoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers to their posts, he said. The conference elections are by voice vote, which masks the weakness of Ryan's support with House Republicans and could be chaotic if and when he fails to reach the required 218 votes when the new Congress meets. "There is no doubt Ryan has the support of the majority of the conference, but we will not find out if he has enough until January," he said. "You got to have 218," the congressman said. "Just because you have 215 doesn't get you 218. http://bit.ly/2eLsA3q Posted by: artisanal 'ette at November 11, 2016 08:08 PM (qCMvj) 427

Terry Pratchett once called the (Discworld version) of Twitter to be the opposite of telepathy - transmitting messages without thought.
However I wonder if the source of the problem is that the crop of reporters we have now are almost exclusively the ones that were raised and trained after the late 60's: even most of the journo profs are now post 60's trained so they all were brought up to believe Marshall Macluhan's premise that the medium is the message. No, sorry, the message is the message, the medium only affects presentation. And the message can either be true or false, and like comedy, even propaganda has to have some element of truth in it to be accepted.

Ss a matter of practicality, the impeachment power is unlimited. "High crimes a misdemeanors" can mean anything. It's just depends on the House and the Senate. If a majority of the House impeaches, and 2/3 of the Senate convicts, he's gone, Jim.

A SCROTUS justice can only be removed by impeachment for Treason, Bribery and other High Crimes and Misdemeanors.
BUT there is no limit to the number of J's...Trump could make it 11 or 13 as an example. BBBWWWWWWHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Posted by: In Vino Veritas The left loves to redefine words. Can't we point to crappy decisions by Sotomayor or Ginsburg and call that "treason" and have them kicked off the court? That would be less of a stretch, than for instance saying that skepticism about global warming should be punishable under RICO.

So had dinner at a nice small wine bar last night.
On the chalkboard of specials, a Slovenian white wine (it's a beautiful but hot Santa Ana here all week, so chilled white was the call for dinner). Mentioned it to the boss, said we should try it - and before I made the joke, she whispered "and to honor Melania". Whispered, because, well, you know. So the waitress, as she's bringing the check to the only other couple there, says something about "well you're not from PA or OH, or one of those places that did this to the country". She didn't pull any s**t with us, but - it's just impossible to escape these idiots, who insist upon sharing their ignorance, low-intelligence, and bigotries (yep, that's what it takes to be a voter like her, sorry). We talked about going to a hipster-ish part of town to soak in the despair, but I'm worried my decades-long olympian restraint and forebearance with these clueless, dangerous people may expire at any moment.

>>JackStraw, my campaign mechanics comment way above was not about Trump doing anything on his own, but about how (perhaps) we just saw a dramatic demonstration that lots of the old techniques don't work any more. An in-depth look by geeks with the background should tell us before too long.
I understand, that's why I pointed out that a lot of the stuff normally done by a campaign was outsourced by Trump to the RNC. And my point is the RNC is using a lot of the techniques of previous voter targeting and turnout. http://tinyurl.com/htp5nox All of this was announced back in the Spring. Trump did a great job in winning the race but he didn't really invent anything new, just who was running the dials. It's one reason he had so much time to campaign, he didn't do a lot of the campaign internals including a lot of the fundraising.

The most interesting is that each men had as their main objectives to deal with Russia. Each man had a different way in which they wanted to deal with them. Reagan wanted to crush them, Trump wants to turn them into an ally. Very interesting. Posted by: Kreplach at November 11, 2016 08:20 PM (+lv+r) Good point.

Sympathy for Huma?
That's pretty hilarious. Absolutely love that photo of her crying in public. Stupid criminals with alien and inimical value systems are not eligible for sympathy at any level, for me. That she or her boss were ever in any position of responsibility for US foreign policy and security is an absurd outrage. What one hopes are the enormous suffering and damage resulting from their loss - and hopefully their prosecution and public humiliation - are more than deserved. Yeah, so I guess you could say my sympathy meter's registering Zero on those people.

Posted by: Insomniac - 1 in 94,609,000 at November 11, 2016 08:35 PM (X2m/e) And just when they (Leftist women, anyway) get done telling you how strong and independent they are, they promptly go into a rant about the many insurmountable obstacles and threats they face ever day, and how they "just can't even..." And it's men who are responsible for clearing away all these threats to their delicate sensibilities, while also insuring that no woman will ever go hungry nor suffer the slightest inconvenience no matter what horrible decisions she may make as a result of her short term oriented, hyper-emotional, solipsistic world view.

No, Roberts had to go through the hearing process and a vote. Posted by: Soothsayer at November 11, 2016 08:31 PM (mBtaw) ----------------------------- Of course he did. But if Bush had appointed Scalia as Chief Justice, Scalia would have had to go through a hearing for that. IOW, even a sitting justice has to be approved for the Chief Justice job. (This happened with Rehnquist, IIRC.) Then Roberts of course would have a hearing to be a justice. So there would have been TWO hearings. By appointing Roberts straight to the Chief spot, there would only be one hearing. Posted by: Margarita DeVille at November 11, 2016 08:41 PM (Nox3c) 617

My husband thinks it will be okay. Any tips on stance, padded vest? I've missed that "crow" so many times from 15 feet with the pellet gun.

CaliGirl: A slip on butt padmay be a better solution than a padded jacket. Also consider the underarm assault position where you tuck it to the side, hold with your dominant arm on the stock and your non-dom as usual forward.

There are even some decent self defense .410 rounds now, Hornady Critical Defense probably being the best. Posted by: In Vino Veritas at November 11, 2016 09:01 PM (cJDvr) 736

CaliGirl, others here can chime in as well on this, but here's my take:
* clear any shotgun work with a doc, if you have one for that neck/back condition * reason being, padded vests or (my preference) recoil pads mounted to the stock of the gun are great for avoiding bruising and soreness around the shoulder - but may not reduce the impulse and consequent movement in the upper body/shoulder enough to avoid aggravating your condition * check recoil pads, and vests, at Midway USA and Brownells, also Amazon as always. The slip-on (velcro) pads, with gel inside, are great because they don't require changing the gun in any way and also don't force you to wear special clothing - the vests might not be desirable on a day like today, for example. There was a somewhat similar question recently on a major gun forum - everyone advised great caution. I'd want a medical OK before even shooting a 410 with back or neck issues.

Posted by: Sebastian Melmoth at November 11, 2016 09:00 PM (IDPbH) I would characterize it as schizophrenic. They claim to distinguish between "hard news" shows and "opinion" shows. But on the "hard news" side the two reporters covering the campaigns, Jennifer Griffin, the Hillary reporter, was a cheerleader for Hillary dutifully relaying the daily campaign spin, while Carl Cameron, the Trump guy, brought nothing but smirking and snark about Trump. I think Megyn is supposed to be a "hard news" show, believe it or not. But her show was just silly anti-Trump war on womynz crap. Ed Henry originally covered the Hillary campaign. But after he got her to say "like with a cloth?" there was a leak (presumably from the Hillary campaign) about an affair he was having with a Vegas stripper that got him fired for a while. He struck me as a conventional liberal, probably still is, but when he was allowed to come back, seemed to report negative Hillary news with relish.

... but the political problems caused by prosecuting the person defeated in an election probably outweigh spending the political capital to do it. She's through anyway.
Posted by: rickb223 at November 11, 2016 09:04 PM (RlR2m) Disagree. After all, she's not being prosecuted for being a Dem. And she was not Trump's predecessor (though Obama should also be tried, if possible, just on principle). The show trial would be glorious. Seeing that vile, treasonous harlot exposed for the felon she is would drive a healthy fear of consequence into the army of Leftist trash who are lining up to take her place, with plans to follow her influence peddling model to enrich themselves beyond the dreams of avarice. She MUST be tried, and convicted, and punished as severely as possible. Otherwise it will be a never ending stream of Hillary clones from now 'till doomsday. Personally I think the US could enjoy no greater benefit than HRC's public execution for treason. Posted by: Reactionary at November 11, 2016 09:10 PM (TsW/N) 779

I posted this at FB a few days ago...
I have to say, and I'm okay with it if people here disagree with me, but: let Hillary be. IMHO we don't have to "lock 'er up" and send her to jail, and I don't care if she gets her stupid pardon. I am reasonably certain that losing to Trump is incredibly, mindbendingly devastating to her and her own self___, and she's been humiliated for all time by this defeat. She can retreat into full-on narcissistic delusion, blame everyone else, scream and yell and abuse underlings every minute for the rest of her natural (or unnatural) life, and tell herself every self-serving lie in the book and then invent new ones, but NOTHING will ever change the fact: she *lost*, she's *beaten*, and she's *never* going to get another encore.

Morning after the election
656 When Ace finally wakes up I'll probably be banned. He basically hates me at this point. So this will be my last word on the subject, and at the HQ. For realz this time. But let me just say that I hope that you are true to your word about keeping Trump accountable. Many people over the past year made the argument that Trump was preferable to Clinton because, in part, Congress would hold in check some of Trump's more outrageous antics, while they claimed Congress would let Clinton get away with her unending corruption. So when Trump proposes something outrageous, or he or his staff gets into some scandal (which you know will happen) I hope that you make the correct choice. Paul Ryan is unpopular around here, and if Congress starts demanding some investigation into some Trump Administration impropriety, or rejects some of Trump's outlandish ideas, the strong temptation and strong social pressure from the Trump acolytes, is going to be to diss Paul Ryan some more, diss the GOPe some more, and turn into knee-jerk partisan Trump defenders. I hope that doesn't happen. We shouldn't have done it back when Bush was invading Iraq and bailing out the banks, the left shouldn't have done it when Obama was drone-striking citizens, usurping more of Congress' authority, and starting new wars in the Middle East (among other numerous transgressions), and we shouldn't give in to that temptation again. We *do* need Congress to reassert its co-equal standing among the branches of government, and no president, not even Trump, should get a blank check to do whatever it wishes. I didn't vote for him and while I won't get to take any credit for some of the positive things he might do, I also won't feel responsible for, or obliged to defend, any of the terrible stuff that he is going to do. Please don't let your vote for him mean that you have to feel responsible to defend him on all things. We need a sane and sober conservative movement to stand both in opposition to the radical left, but also stand in opposition to the outrageous excesses that can ensue from populist movements everywhere. After all the modern conservative movement really got started when Burke saw the terrible results of populism run amok in France. There's going to be a lot of pressure to stand with Trump even when he's wrong, just because "the people are on his side", and I hope that doesn't happen here. Farewell to the decent people here at the HQ. And to the rest of you, who would rather see me consume some container of male genitalia, then fuck you.

We need a special counsel to prosecute the sale of US government policy for $$$ by the Clintons. I mean come on, that is bad. We can't just let that slide.
And we need to prosecute the mishandling of national secrets. We can't send some poor sailor to the brig for a year for having sub photos on his iphone while Hillary puts thousands of secrets on an unsecure server hacked by 5 or 6 foreign powers. And we need to investigate possible obstruction of justice by the DoJ in the investigations of the Clintons. We can't have people in the very highest positions of law enforcement in our government acting thoroughly corruptly in order to rig the system to retain their own power over the government.

Sure you can. Get say a Ruger auto or revolver and put a red-dot sight on it. Also, if you catch the tree rats on a tree you can 'bark' them where you hit the bark close to the beast and the bark spall will kill or at least stun them. 22 Mag works nice, or get a zero recoil .17 mag or .22 and pot shoot the little buggers all day long...

Loved this article - a rare person who maybe can learn from his mistakes.
Horde, pray for me, for I have outed myself on Facebook with one of my ultra-left classmates. In attempting to convince me that Trump and his supporters are crazy-violent, she 1) claimed the NYT as a "credible" source (give me a fucking break) and 2) posted one of their articles about Trump supporters warning that there could be revolution if Hillary wins. I responded by laughing at the thought of the NYT as being credible and called it a rag. I went on to say that no one has to tell me that there will be bloody revolution if the left doesn't back the fuck off. I said that we will not relinquish our freedom and we're the ones with the guns, and they ain't just for hunting - that 2A is there specifically to throw off tyrannical government.

My husband was telling me about something he saw on the internet somewhere today, but couldn't remember where. I'd love to see it, so I'm hoping one of you might know.
It was a tweet from some young woman SJW, from about 6:00 the night of the election, saying that the country needs to come together and heal and work together, yada yada yada. It was obvious that she thought Hillary would win. Then there's a tweet from her about midnight, and it's all "you mofos what have you done" expletive-filled rant when it's obvious Trump has won. Ring any bells?

Posted by: Scalia's Ghost at November 11, 2016 09:22 PM (hA1V+) THIS. Furthermore, the Left has not yet had the fight beaten out of them. That is because no one has actively resisted them yet in the real world. The trial, conviction, and punishment of Clinton and her vile pederast minions would be the first crucial act of direct opposition and forceful resistance to the Leftist hordes. Once this happens they will do what Leftist turds always do when confronted - they'll flee and hide in their rat holes like the cowards they are. If we don't push back via legal means, eventually they will force us to fall back on less civilized methods. Traitors belong on a scaffold, or sitting in Ole' Sparky.

The only, ONLY possibility for a Hillary pardon should be under the condition of full public admission of guilt, dismantling of the Clinton Foundation and full denial of all benefits given to former Presidents.

Awesome, LizLem.
A lot of Clinton voters had reasons, not reasons I agreed with obviously, but I could see why they did. The week of the first debate was a rotten week for Trump, for instance.
