The Trump Effect Is Real, And It's Spectacular!

Occam's Razor says that the Qataris could read the tea leaves of the upcoming American presidential election and realized that Donald Trump might not tolerate their cozying up to every terrorist group on earth. And unlike the current administration's mealy-mouthed equivocation about support for terrorism, the incoming administration will be less inclined to look the other way.

Report: Qatar set to kick Hamas leadership out

Qatar has told the political leaders of the Hamas terror group that they were no longer welcome in the Gulf state, Israeli media reported on Friday.
According to the Hebrew-language Kan outlet, the decision was communicated to the Palestinian jihadists "in recent days."
Qatar, a "major non-NATO ally" of the U.S. "has repeatedly stressed its position as a regional player able to mediate between conflicting players, one of the few parties with a direct line to Hamas leadership. It is also home to a number of the leaders of the U.S. and EU-sanctioned terrorist movement Hamas," analyst Benjamin Weinthal wrote of the Gulf state's role in financing of jihadist terrorism and antisemitic propaganda.

I wonder whether the 7th century goatherds in Yemen will get the message and tone down their attacks on shipping? And will Hezbollah see the light and quietly move north of the Litani River?

And of course the father of all of these terror groups...Iran? I doubt they can be moderated, but an administration that supports internal resistance might be the final push that the Persians need to get rid of their theocratic lunatic rulers!

We live in interesting times, but it seems to be getting better for the good guys!

Bonus [ace]:

NEW: President of the European Union commission says they want to start buying oil from the United States and not Russia.

Trump wins the election and the world falls in line. Remarkable.

28 Foreign leaders at this point must consider Trump to be super-human. He is arrested, threatened with jail, shot at, and the entire traditional American media unanimously declares him to be worse than Adolf and he ROLLS back into power, ready to dish out hot vengeance. Remember, he threatened Iran with levels of destruction never before seen in human history.

Point of order. There is no actual proof North Korean troops are in Russia. Several of the videos purporting to be them have been Asiatic troops from either Siberia or other federated nations.

The Left could have been done with Donald Trump Forever after this election. They could have played their bullshit games for another 4 years and bided their time.
And it probably would have been Mike Pence or some other candidate losing to Gavin Newsome and they would be celebrating this week.
But nope. They had to steal 2020 because they hated Trump that bad.
And now they get an energized Trump with a Real Vice President with no Uniparty ties who could take it another 8 years and a base that expects them to do stuff because we have a Mandate now.
Thank you, lefties. Thank you for not understanding Cause and Effect.

108 It'd be cool if the election were the impetus for Qatar ejecting Hamas, but news outlets are reporting that this has been in the works for some time, since Hamas rejected the last hostage deal proposal. For instance, Reuters reports:

""After rejecting repeated proposals to release hostages, its leaders should no longer be welcome in the capitals of any American partner. We made that clear to Qatar following Hamas's rejection weeks ago of another hostage release proposal," the senior official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

"Qatar then made the demand to Hamas leaders about 10 days ago, the official said. Washington has been in touch with Qatar over when to close the group's political office, and it told Doha that now was the time."

Of course it could be that the Biden admin is trying to take credit. Or that the above is half-true and that the push to get Qatar to eject Hamas was in the works but the election results were the final prompt for Qatar to make the demand. I don't know.

A Chinese citizen who tried to enter Mar-a-Lago, the Florida residence of President-elect Trump, multiple times over the past few months was arrested Thursday, authorities said.

It was one of multiple attempts by Zijie Li, 39, to enter the Palm Beach club in an effort to speak with Trump, according to an arrest affidavit.

He faces a second trespass charge after being issued a warning, in addition to a pending charge he received in July. He is being held in the Palm Beach County Main Detention Center on $100,000 bail, according to jail records.

We can and we do. We've been doing so for quite some time. Bit by bit, account by account, business by business. It doesn't seem like we do because you don't have the hard start of an invasion to associate it in your mind. But both organizations have been designated on the official financial shit list for decades.

"Sorry but number of live hostages has been reduced to around 50 and no the sandrats are not going to release them."

The hostages are Hamas' only chance to make it out of this war as an intact organization. They absolutely will not release them without using them to bargain for a ceasefire & the chance to rebuild. Israel, to their credit, will not agree to this.

"There is no actual proof North Korean troops are in Russia."

It is an ancient tradition that the rightful ruler would be known by the order produced under him. Conversely, disasters indicated that the king was illegitimate. Thus, Biden's endless stepping on rakes was - from a traditional spiritual perspective - proof that he was not a legitimate, lawful president.

Trump's election has produced the opposite effect - suddenly harmony, order, peace and hope for prosperity are popping up all over.

Two guys got in a fight. The one who started it died accidentally. It's unfortunate. I wish he'd lived.

But let's face facts. He was a clinically insane vagrant whose life mattered to nobody, including himself. The other guy is a seemingly good dude, and a productive member of society who served his country in the war.

Just turn a blind eye to this and let him move on with his now very damaged life. Jury nullification would be nice; failing that, I'd personally hang tough and hang that jury.

237 I don't want Trump to do a single press conference if it is with the so-called mainstream. No more of that.

239 What is everyone's opinion on "potato bread?"

I think it's stupid.

Also, onion bread is disgusting.

I bought some in a store for some years. Its a lil heavier white IIRC, it isn't a large potato chip or something. Pretty good for sandwiches. I did not measure its intelligence.

Onion bagels are good, and are onion bread.

He sure did incredible service to the DEMs by making the J6 Committee "bipartisan."

But when it was time to redistrict: "Thanks for everything, buddy! We're losing a seat, though, and you're the carve-ee."

244 The mobilization for World War Trump 2.0 Is in full swing. From Blue State attorneys generals, Blue State governors, Hawaiian Judges, to an army of Bear Claw Vindemans, Madison Cornbreads and Democrat Antifa terrorists Resistance 2.0 gathers. What a clown army they be.

245 he Lion in Winter is a go to guide on how to write dialogue

I agree, its so well written. Loren D Estleman suggests reading and studying plays to learn how to write dialog (LIW was a play originally). And then there's the vast talent in the casting to deliver those lines well

I'd vote not guilty based on what I've read - especially ifit's true the EMTs weren't willing to do CPR (artificial resp) because the 'patient' was 'icky'

254 "Let me clarify: the proof I have seen looks faker than a three-dollar bill and is sourced from known propaganda outlets."

Fair enough. I have seen different things from different places and have come to a different conclusion. I would suggest that you figure out what kind of proof you would accept and prepare for it.
