Gaetz Prevails

 I saw Maria Bartiromo rip Gaetz before she interviewed him.

Minutes later, after her rant she lets him talk.

He convinced her, it seemed to me.

A morning talk show host mocked Gaetz, as did many others, for grandstanding, after all, nothing would happen, McCarthy would remain.

He did not.

Now Gaetz is portrayed as the dog that caught the car. Now what?

No clear succession. No one wants the job.

That is the perfect scenario. Draft someone.

Someone who doesn't want the job.

Someone who will DO the job.

  1. Former President Donald Trump still manages to COMPLETELY dominate the Polls, and the political headlines, two and a half years after leaving office. On Thursday, the House select committee investigating the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, as well as several other investigations about Trump’s using his power to try and overturn the 2020 election result.
    I don't generally put a lot of stock in polls but I can't put aside the over-whelming 29 of 30 polls that clearly show the enormous lead that Donald Trump has, and is growing. The Democrats will show up and march in lockstep behind Biden, or Newsom, or even Hillary. They represent around 65 million votes. But... Trump and his 14 million supporters are going to win in a landslide! They DO NOT need help from anyone! Trump seems to grow more, and more popular the worse his legal troubles seem to become.
    The criminal charges against former President Donald Trump could have been his downfall. Instead, he’s turned them into an opportunity. He’s been indicted four times, and on 91 counts, most recently surrendering on Thursday to Georgia authorities on charges that he Tried to Overturn the 2020 Election. Despite that, he continues to pull ahead in the poll numbers that put him in a historically strong position for a non-incumbent to win his party’s nomination, running ahead at a Hugh 40 percentage points.
    Rather than hiding from his legal problems, Trump is leaning right into them, arguing that he’s “Done Nothing Wrong” and that the charges represent a plot , and a “Witch Hunt” against him.
    To the frustration of his Democrat Opponents, instead of Trump’s being defeated at the polls, Trump is getting Stronger

  2. Can someone, anyone truthfully explain why people attack the idea of "Make America Great Again" (known as MAGA") is not a GREAT thing, and not a Bad thing?
    Why would ANY real American Lover NOT want this?
    Are they forgetting all the Greatness that America has brought to this world of ours?
    Remember Us winning World War Two”
    Remember our Freeing all those poor people who were in the Nazi Concentration Camps?
    Remember our going to the moon?
    Remember when housing was affordable?
    Remember when Detroit ruled the world with its Automobile Industry?
    Remember when you kids could go play safely at the neighborhood parks, at the Ball games, in the Subways?
    Remember when we didn’t locl the doors to our apartments, or to our Cars?
    Remember when jobs were plentiful and you could support your family on one, and the wife, Mother in your family stayed home and Cooked?
    Remember when our Kids walked to School, and weren’t afraid to talk to strangers?
    Remember walking down your street at night wasn’t a crazy thing to do?
    Remember the Corner Candy Store?
    Remember when the doctor made house calls?
    Remember D-Day and the Liberation of Europe?
    Remember the Greatest Generation?

    Who in this country doesn’t long for the days when America was great? I'll tell you who: DEMOCRATS.

    Now Democrats are Socialist’s, and Progressives are something that is Evil, they hate freedom, they hate the idea of Free Speech, that Ban anything and everything that THEY don’t like! They hate America, they are promoting socialism, they are the enemy of everything that is good and descent. They promote sodomy and sexualizing children and murdering babies by abortion. From the days of slavery, which democrats fight for, to today, Democrats have been a satanic evil entity.

    US Real Americans Love America and want to "Make America Great Again" And there is NOTHING wrong with that!

    Beware of those who mock the acronym MAGA. They are very likely your mortal enemy. Beware of those people that say Republicans are their enemy, and are destroying Democracy. !
    My friends, Love is better than Hate, or Anger. Hope is better than Fear. Optimism is better than Despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and Optimistic. Lets Make America GREAT Again!

    1. No, bit I depend on Microsoft Defender built into Windows.
      My IT friends assured me it is sufficient and I haven't had a problem in years.
