  • She and her running mate, Gov Elect Youngkin, were greatly aided by the previous Democratic Governor covering up a rape by a transgender student of a 15 year old cisgender girl in a restroom by attempting to label the parents as terrorists. Not sure that is very repeatable.

    • As a resident of the county adjacent to Loudon, let me say:

      * The Youngkin campaign was a textbook execution

      * Greasius Maximus (McAuliffe) was completely overconfident and living in a bubble until the last couple of weeks

      * Biden was a drain

      * The Republicans did not win by much; only the combination of the above elements got Youngkin past all of the idiotic weakening of ballot security here

      * Youngkin is a younger version of Mitt Romney; the interesting one is Winsome Sears

      * Supposedly loose cannon

      • his loose cannon reputation is mostly for show.

        Ya don't say! The magic works. He's still as crooked as a three dollar bill

        • Not to waste breath accusing DJT of sainthood (casinos being an obviously dirty racket those decades ago):

          - there hasn't been any credible evidence of crookedness offered,

          - there has been so much garbage evidence as to suggest that there may not BE any real derogatory evidence.

          If Hillary had dirt, why could Her Majesty not make it stick?

          • there hasn't been any credible evidence of crookedness offered,

            Yes they were. I referred you to various court cases that prove that he is a crook, and some cases still open. It doesn't stick because his worshipers (you included) don't care. You are attracted to his personality.

            Not to waste breath accusing DJT of sainthood

            But you always do in your support. You can do better. Somewhere around you will find an honest human being. First you gotta hop off the wacko bandwagon.

            • So: https://www.justsecurity.org/75032/litigation-tracker-pending-criminal-and-civil-cases-against-donald-trump/ [justsecurity.org]

              There is a spectrum here, with endpoints:

              - Trump is an absolute gangster thug and deserves to rot in hell, and
              - Trump is among absolute gangster thugs engaged in lawfare against him.

              Question to you: do you think gangsterism is a switch that can be turned on and off, or is it closer to an addiction?

              What specific official policy actions during Trumps four years as President would you cite

              • His "tax cuts" were pure gangsterism. Notice the dems haven't repealed them :-) They don't oppose republican policy Same goes for various contracts he offered in privatizing government functions. He paid many favors. I would love to see his "insurance" policy

                • His "tax cuts" were pure gangsterism.

                  The economy accelerated when the government foot was removed from the regulatory break. If this is "gangsterism", then bring it on.

                  He paid many favors.

                  Oh, well, what more evidence could we possibly need? CRUCIFY HIM!

                  • Wall Street accelerated, not the "economy", just like now, it is entirely funded by our tax dollars. And now, for lack of funding, the infrastructure crumbles and inflation skyrockets.. Oh well, somebody has to pay for all those QE bailouts... Of course you will only blame half of those responsible.

                    So, you'll take any gangsterism that saves you a penny, no matter who it kills? That's not very "christian" of you, but it seems to be the type of "christianity" you share with your friend here, so I can understa

                    • So, you'll take any gangsterism that saves you a penny, no matter who it kills? That's not very "christian" of you, but it seems to be the type of "christianity" you share with your friend here, so I can understand why you identify with his brand of the faith.

                      So, you seem to imply some Manichaeian [wikipedia.org] duality where I am constrained to silence rather than any political involvement, due to the existential impurity of the process?

                      I mean, your point is not without proponents, e.g. David French.

                    • Tax dollars? Only if you can think of inflation as a tax. Near as I can tell, the government is funded off of Biden Brand Zimbabwaen Baked Beans.

                    • So, you seem to imply some Manichaeian duality

                      :-) Not even close.. Don't know how you conjure up the idea, projection maybe, you have hardly been "constrained to silence". Your strange awkward rationalizations have yet to resolve your conflict.

                    • Yeah, it's Biden's now (in name, but since his position as mere placeholder is purely ceremonial, it hardly matters), and it's not funding the government. This round of Wall Street bailouts started in Sept, '19 with the repo markets getting the first few trillion, the spigot is now running about 120 billion a month. All financial industry news, all the records "highs", trillion dollar "valuations", etc, revolve around that. And it is now causing this new round of inflation. Indeed Wall Street's Zimbabwe dol

                    • Don't know how you conjure up the idea

                      My understanding of your judgement is that I can either be Christian, or engage in political dialogue, but not both.

                    • Your support of the money changers is not "engaging in political dialog"... It is antithetical to Christian belief. That is more than self evident

                    • So, Manichaeian.

                    • So completely wrong, I don't do dualism, but keep making excuses

                    • You don't do dualism; you merely proffer a binary choice. In your telling (as I have understood it), I am permitted to be Christian or to support Trump.

                    • Yes, the conflict is obvious, your rationalizations nonsensical and absurd, nothing to do with dualism, other than sharing the same traits

                    • Sorry to hear that your doghouse is full of pancakes.

                    • s'alright.. they're buckwheat

            • Actually, it doesn't stick because DJT is a master of both manipulation and suggestion; 99% of the court cases that have his name on them are really against shell corporations that are only paying him a nominal fee of a couple of million for use of the name, which is the only *real* asset he owns.

              • Actually, it doesn't stick because DJT is a master of both manipulation and suggestion

                Goes with the territory. He is the true king of all media. When will they produce a First Person Shooter game set on 5th Ave named after him?

                • Would be an awfully weird first person shooter. His choices of weapons are checkbook, contract, and advertising firm.

                  • :-) A man that knows how to delegate... why get your own hands dirty?

                    • Or even your own company dirty.

                      Even the discrimination lawsuits against him, were sub contractors of sub contractors of contractors of management companies that were only paying him for use of his name.

          • Oh, and Hillary? Now there's the assassin accusing the assassin!
