 DJ TRUMP and JD VANCE

On November 4, 2008, John McCain was defeated by Barack Obama for President of the United States. Obama received 365 electoral votes to McCain's 173 and Obama had 53% of the popular vote to 46% for McCain. There is an interesting piece of information about that race that must be remembered  in respect to the Trump/Harris election this year. 

Contrary to what the experts said, Obama received 68% of votes from young voters and McCain - who was expected to receive a huge number - only received 30%. It turned out to be a huge help for Obama.

Perhaps this year will be the same for the Democrat. Polls have been showing Trump may be doing well with the younger voters against Biden. Since Kamala Harris is now the presumptive nominee for the Democrats, she is doing very well with the young voters. 

And, there is another down side to the Republican Party. JD Vance's likeability is in the toilet at the moment. He has seemed to anger voters up and down the ballot. It turns out, his background is sketchy and shaky and his current racial and ethnic mutterings are no better. 

There have been grumblings coming from the Mar-a-Lago direction and maybe he is waiting to see who Harris will choose for her Vice President before he makes a decision. That should come sometime during the next week.

Smart money would say, "Dump Vance."  But with Trump, what does "smart" money have to do with anything? There hasn't been smart money seen in his camp since he came up with the stupid idea to run again for president!

There are two kinds of people in the world of politics.  There are "rockets" (the kind that shoot straight up and win) and there are "rocks" (the kind that shoot straight up about two feet...and then drop - like a rock.

JD Vance is a rock. . . He is a hillbilly who came out of the hills, looked around, and (mentally) went back in. He never gained any altitude and he should have been "scrubbed" before "lift off." 

. . . and then there's DJ Trump. . . all of the censored words about him are already used up!

The Trees Kept Voting for the Axe. . .

Opinion by John Watson   "The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for  the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them."   - A Turkish Proverb   This proverb reflects the idea that the perpetrator of harm may forget their actions, but the victim will always remember.  Whatever your political leaning, I have found this proverb interesting. For me, it has always found its way into different aspects of  political thoughts and discussions. During this particularly stressful election where our very basic needs are being challenged, The perpetrator has quite easily convinced a large group his base of accepting him because he will get them everything their hearts desire if they will but elect him. It has nothing to do with what he can do for them - it has only to do what they will do for him! He wants what he wants and he asks them to supply the votes. What they will get in return is neither inferred nor

It's immoral to even let him run for office. . .

  THE RETRIBUTIONIST He is a legend in his own mind He has promised to call out his Flying Monkeys to wreak hell and damnation on the "enemies of the people." They will be driven from the face of the earth.  Who are they?  The news media. Are there others?  Anyone who won't stand with him.  Once again, Trump is ratcheting up his use of the derisive label to attack the news media. Trump tweeted, "The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, "Make America Great Again." "They can't stand the fact that this Administration  has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first two years," he continued, "They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!" "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." Orwell "1984" Donald Trump is up to his old, untruthful campaign slogans once again. His attack on America'

Did Trump's Plane Get the "Boot?"

Image
TRUMP'S MAIN GEAR TIRE BOOT? Very few times is it necessary to put a restrainer boot on a commercial airliner tire, so few airports have them available. One particular plane, however, is popularizing their need. It belongs to - as far as we know - an owner named TRUMP, the name that is highly visible on the side of the plane. It is reported that he has trouble paying his Gate Rental fees when he lands at airports. This blog could not verify that report, however. The unofficial report specifically mentioned the Trump jet that wanted to land at the Bozeman, Montana area airport but they refused his landing privilege due to a sizeable overdue bill from previous landings.  He landed in Billings, instead, and had to caravan to Bozeman for his Rally.  If you look closely at the above photo of his plane, we think you will notice what appears to be a "TIRE BOOT" on the main gear. We, again, can't verify this because the main gear tire is too far from the photographer. The boo
