Yes but Betonhaus what if a mentally ill man wants to go into the women's restroom and force everyone to pretend that he's a pretty pretty princess so he can masturbate himself to sleep tonight? Why won't you think of the stunning and brave perverts demanding to use your wife and kids as a prop in their sexual fetish play? Gosh, how bigoted of you.

Can you imagine the alternate timeline where Harris won, and then got re-elected?

4 years of open borders, increasing "woke" BS, housing crisis, then 8 years more?

And yet SJWs may still wonder why most Americans "voted wrong" "chose fascism"...

A desperate attempt to get us wherever they planned us to be at by 2030, heh. Probably a digital currency to reboot the economy, definitely a war somewhere while they discover that no, DEI hires won't go fight and die for Israel on command.

None of it would work because as incompetent as Biden was, Kamala is worse, but they would have tried, and god only knows how bad it would get.

Beadles has hired private investigators directed at local politicians. (Archive)

Reading the article, the investigated politicians found the PI's GPS trackers on their car. What is their response? Clutch their pearls, wail about invasion of privacy, and try to make GPS trackers illegal except for cops. In other words, as soon as they found out the could be investigated, they wanted to make it illegal to investigate them. Guilty conscience, much?

And on that same token, we won't have real security because real security is mean. Real security means locking people up, chasing border crossers away with rifles, using nightsticks to make bums move on, and more. People forget that we've already been through this cycle. We shut down law enforcement in the 60s and 70s at the demand of voters because it was mean. Things got really, really bad, so bad that voters came around and were okay with being mean again...for a while. Things eventually got good in the 2000s, so good that once again, voters cried and wailed when they saw how mean keeping society secure was. So we started disabling meaningful law enforcement again, now things are going to shit, and once again, voters are coming around.

Donald Trump isn't a conservative. He's a 90s democrat, and so are a large chunk of the people who voted for him. Unfortunately you, and I, are going to have to wait for the culture to shift right via births, and media to get back to conservatives who actually conserve.
Click to expand...
I disagree, but not in the way you might think. He's not a Conservative like Nixon or Regan, trying to preserve their respective early eras. He's trying to conserve the prosperity of the 90s. Things were pretty good in the 90s. There was plenty of work to go around, food, fuel, and consumer goods were readily available and cheap, computers were getting ever faster and cheaper, and there was a general optimism for the future.

Who else to try to conserve the prosperity and optimism of that time period than a 90s Democrat?

These dummies imagine army guys going door to door with rifles, rounding up criminal aliens, but the reality is going to be more like, army guys driving trucks, building temporary shelters, and cooking meals. There's a whole lot more to a massive operation like this than kicking in doors.

I won't lie, the tariffs I think are a bad idea. Unless Trump can actually reduce the barrier to entry for factories to return such as by getting rid of the regulations that encouraged the outsourcing in the first place, the tariffs are only going to make prices worse

Something to keep in mind is that, for the most part, many of those regulations are meant to protect workers, like workplace safety and general rights, and consumers. These manufacturing companies went to China because labor and consumer laws are very relaxed (and can easily be bought off), and the labor is extremely cheap. The Trump tariffs won't even do much good since they're already planning to relocate their production to Southeast countries like Vietnam, and to India.

I mean, just look at John Deere when they announced they would be relocating production of its loaders and tractors to Mexico, and still committed to it despite Trump threatening tariffs. The labor is just much cheaper down there thanks to the US Dollar being worth 20 Mexican Pesos.

Outgoing Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) — a member of the far-left “Squad” — is demanding that the next Star Wars movie features a black Jedi lead character, saying he will refuse to watch and will even denounce the movie franchise if his demand isn’t met.

Spoiler: With or without a black lead Jedi character, the next SW movie will still suck. You're better off not watching regardless.

I'm getting healthcare from work next year after living 10 years without it. It's cheaper than Obamacare.
Click to expand...
The biggest thing with Obamacare is that people with insurance from their job don't have to pay more than 8.5% of their income towards the premium. Those having to get individual policies on the market place ave no such protection so premiums can be high even with subsidies.

US Health Care n general definitely needs improvements, but scrapping the ACA outright would cause more problems than it solves. At the very least keep the prohibitions on not covering preexisting conditions and imposing lifetime coverage cap. In all honesty, I'm not sure how high this is on the priority list for Trump's second term.It sounds more like eliminating the bureaucracy and extending the tax stuff from his first term are high on the list of things to get done - for now anyways.
