Well, there was no “Red Wave.” It hardly even qualified as a Red Spurt.
It wasn’t a sweep. It wasn’t even a light dusting. This was the puniest “reckoning” in electoral history. This would have been an uncharacteristically meager midterm pushback even during relatively normal times.
In 2010, when the Tea Party was a thing, the GOP gained 63 seats during the midterms. In 1994, Republicans gained 54 seats. And that was when Democratic presidents such as Barack Obama and Bill Clinton enjoyed much higher approval ratings than the cadaverous Joe Biden does.
Due to this odd new phenomenon where vote-counting isn’t finished on Election Night, all I can say is that as of this writing, the GOP has gained a piddling six seats in the House and lost one Senate seat. The Senate’s true composition won’t be decided until December 6, when two blockheaded black men who don’t represent my interests in the slightest have a runoff election here in Georgia.
Assuming there was not widespread voter fraud — a huge assumption to make, as I tend to assume that every election involves widespread voter fraud, only I’m not such a blind partisan that I assume only the “other” side does it — voters ignored monster inflation, skyrocketing crime, complete loss of public trust, FBI overreach, COVID gaslighting, the most inept president in American history, and a looming nuclear war to shuffle off to the polls and vote for business as usual.
Oh, and the giant new sun-eclipsing tsunami of “based zoomers” who were going to set America back on the right path and correct all the previous generations’ selfish blunders like a self-appointed squad of moral chiropractors? Surprise! Zoomers are the ones who saved the Democrats on Tuesday night. By far. 63% of those aged 18-29 supported Democrats. There probably would have been a healthy-sized “Red Wave” if the voting age had been raised to 30.
Maybe there’s not as much resistance as we thought. With an estimated three-quarters of Americans saying the country is on the wrong track, maybe all they meant is that the other Americans on the other side of the political divide are on the wrong track. People rarely have the insight to see themselves hurtling down the wrong track.
Maybe half the country will never see things the way the other half does, and all the voting in the world won’t fix that.
Neither party has ever managed to reduce the public debt by a penny. The US dollar is rapidly losing its foothold as the world’s reserve currency. The US population is so diverse that it’s impossible for us to ever get along as one nation. These are problems that go way beyond Republicans and Democrats.
But democracy is self-sustaining because it keeps promising you that positive change will happen so long as you vote one more time. Maybe “democracy” is set up so that nothing really changes and no one ever feels satisfied. Has anyone ever stopped to consider that if politics got us into this situation, politics is not going to be what gets us out of it? Maybe the country isn’t too big to fail, it’s too big to function.
And even if one side had won decisively, would it stop the coming economic crash? The looming global hot war? The hopelessly complex demographic petri dish that still calls itself a country? Would it accomplish anything beyond making the members of one “team” feel temporarily better?
One thing is for sure: Everyone will have an opinion about it. And nearly everyone’s opinions will be shallow and uninformed.
So here are my admittedly inch-deep and clueless hunches about what happened Tuesday night:
Is it possible that Republicans focused on the wrong messages? Is it possible that both parties myopically focused on their own ideas of metaphysical morality and hardly made a peep about material reality?
You can buy Jim Goad’s The Redneck Manifesto here.
What I witnessed this election cycle were rabid Christian nationalists clashing like stag beetles with the demon prophets of wokeness, both sides oblivious to the fact that neither “degeneracy” nor “hatred” is our biggest problem. You had bitter, screeching, clenched-anus moralists on both sides screaming cancerous bile at one another and promising that if their side won, they would purge all the evil people on the other side and establish a Thousand-Year Reich of Goodness.
The election results put lie to this idea that optically pure, family-focused, Bible-based, morality-obsessed, cultural traditionalism is the inevitable wave of the future rather than a sad relic of an irrevocable past. If being woke is a bourgeois luxury, maybe “owning the libs” is an equivalent trifle. People who actually have to scrape for their next meal don’t care much either way about such things. Most people would rather have empty church pews than bare supermarket shelves.
Maybe it will finally take thousand-dollar hamburgers for people to realize how shallow this culture war really was.
On the Right, it seems as if some strategist in a smoke-filled backroom decided that Critical Race Theory, stampeding anti-whiteness, preschool gender-reassignment surgeries, COVID gaslighting, and state-mandated anarcho-tyranny could only be beaten with brazen acts of competitive humorlessness, counter-fanaticism, and Manichean simplemindedness. Their brilliant counterattack was to merely swap out the Left’s pet projects with pedophilia obsessions, sexual panics, Satanic scares, and empty, pseudo-patriotic corniness. They are bores, the lot of them, all across the spectrum.
Maybe everyone should have talked about the economy more, huh?
If you don’t have a child that you’re personally dragging to Drag Queen Story Hour, the issue likely won’t directly affect you, no matter how repulsive the idea may be to you in theory. But if the fact that workers are essentially obsolete in America’s shiny new high-tech progressive global economy means you’re trudging to Dollar Store for your basic foodstuffs, that will directly affect you both physically and emotionally. It will demoralize you to the point where morality doesn’t seem so important.
Few people care about ideology when they’re starving.
Another thing you might have noticed this election cycle is that neither “side” really talked about economic issues beyond “inflation is bad.” I don’t recall anyone convincingly arguing, “Here’s how we’ll fix it.”
MAGA 2022 bears only a faint resemblance to MAGA 2016. I still believe that it was Trump’s economic nationalism that gave MAGA’s 2016 iteration its energy. But the “movement,” if one dares call it that, seems to have ditched the economic nationalism for dark conspiracies, moral hysteria, and stale pandering to every racial group except whites. Maybe that’s why they didn’t perform so well this time around?
The economic situation for average Americans is far worse than any Republican megadonor would ever need to realize. People who are doing fine economically don’t seem to focus very much on economic issues, do they?
The economy’s inevitable implosion is a much bigger issue than either drag queens or racial microaggressions. I apologize for piercing the rancid little bubble of seethingly incurable moral outrage in which so many of you have willingly encased yourselves over the past few years, but eating is more essential to human survival than constantly reassuring yourself that you’re a good guy who’s on the good side.
Nothing will improve until everyone pulls their heads out of the clouds and keeps their feet firmly planted on the ground.

I pretty much agree with everything Jim wrote, except for the fact that he thinks the Republicans’ problem was that they focused on other issues at the expense of economics. I don’t think this is the case. Or rather, it’s not a problem from where they sit. It was pretty clear even before, but I think the last three years have amply shown us that both parties in the US, as well as all the ruling parties in the EU, are quite happily setting the stage for a global oligarchy where the wealthy will have more power than ever before and ordinary people will be so disenfranchised and downtrodden that they’ll be grateful for whatever table scraps they’re thrown, both materially and legally. They might use it as a slogan, but neither “side” really wants the economic changes underway to be halted because they’re the authors of it in the first place, for their own ends. Or more accurately, they’re the technicians dutifully following the instructions they get from the people who really run the planet. There aren’t any politicians coming to save us.
DeSantis’ campaign was clearly about the culture war and Covid tyranny and he got 60% of the vote so I would say people do care about those issues. Having said that he cleaned up their election laws too which can only help Republicans.
Until you realize that a guy like DeSantis is just a sock-puppet and a con-man, the GOP will have you on their plantation. Voting for any national GOP figure is voting against White people’s interests. It’s as simple that. Work locally. Think racially.
Ridiculous, unless you are an accelerationist (which at my age, I can no longer afford to be). With GOP, we lose more slowly than with Dems. How can anyone disagree with this? Visit the border and disagree. Ask a cop. We need time for our metapolitical agenda to seep across society. Dems are destroying the very possibility of a white renaissance as rapidly as it can be done.
I can disagree with support the GOP because White people have been following that tactic for 60+ years and things continually get worse. The GOP is not an effective vehicle for White people. The argument that the DNC is worse is true, but irrelevant politically. We either get control of local government and develop the resources to nullify federal power (and in some cases state authorities) or we just keep losing. There is no time-scale in which giving power to the GOP results in any improvement in the lives of White people. That’s not a theory, that’s a projection of all available trends. The GOP is dedicated to anti-White ‘civil rights’ and race-blind Kumbaya Liberalism.
I’m not an ‘accelerationist’. The GOP is.
Really nothing to disagree with here, other than two rhetorical flourishes that miss the mark: supermarket shelves are not, in fact, bare, nor are people starving. Inflation is high and times are tough, but Americans generally don’t experience those sorts of much tougher times which tend to produce sweeping political change, rather than the milquetoast culture wars, as you rightly point out.
I like your term, economic nationalism. It probably tests better with voters than my term, National Socialism. Yet every poll, going back to Bismarck, says that what the people actually want, if you bother to ask them, is national (eg. close the border) socialism (eg. Medicare for all).
The connection is obvious, and even Bernie used to say it out loud: “Open borders? That’s a Koch Brothers idea.” You can only have Medicare for all if you don’t flood the country with the world’s wretched refuse.
The function of the “two party” system is to systematically thwart this desire, with each party offering one half (socialism OR nationalism) and pledged to remove the other party’s other half when they get in. One step forward, one step back, every single time.
As for the GOP’s role in this, forget about repealing Roe: like Strangelove’s uncontrollable right arm, or rabid dogs returning to their vomit, Republicans were out on the campaign trail demanding to role back Obamacare and other “socialist” ideas; they just can’t help themselves. Democrats of course insist you can’t have health insurance without drag queen story hour.
There are a number of studies, including one by the UK outfit, Democratic Audit, which show that patriotic/nationalist citizens with socialist economic leanings are statistically underrepresented in organised politics.
This wasn’t always the case. Here in Australia, the mainstream Labor Party was firmly in this tradition up until the early 1970’s. At that time, the liberal globalist outlook which characterised the New Left became the dominant faction in the ALP – and the party fundamentally changed from being a party of the working class, to one which represented the ‘progressive’ middle class and graduates.
It’s heartening to see, at last, a few genuine socialists (Michea for example) recognising this trajectory for what it has been.
https://www.democraticaudit.com/2019/11/15/citizens-with-economically-left-wing-and-culturally-right-wing-views-vote-less-and-are-less-satisfied-with-politics/
The free market is deductively, as well as massively empirically demonstrably, superior to socialism, whether understood as (truly moronic) “central economic planning”, or less idiotic but still deleterious “social democracy” or “welfare statism”. That intellectual battle is long over.
Moreover, when multicultural societies increase socialism, or, more often than not, merely increase the size and scope of government, it is whites who are disproportionately harmed. Think about America right now. Who pays for and who benefits from Big Government? Do average whites, who disproportionately work in the private sector (which is also where the vast majority of white nationalists work), benefit? C’mon man, wake up!
There is a way to thread this needle, and that is to push for economic nationalism (along with racial and cultural nationalism). This is the economic America First agenda of Pat Buchanan and Trump. Frame immigration termination as “American jobs for Americans!” (as well as a way to end the corporate welfare program known as “artificial labor supply expansion”, which is what immigration is). Frame “reshoring” manufacturing lost to China, which can be structured to help rural whites, in (perfectly accurate) security and geostrategic terms. Frame slashing wasteful government (which must be done for long term national economic survival) as “eliminating welfare parasitism” (about which Middle Americans can be made to be justifiably resentful). Support deregulation as a way both to diminish the leftist Deep State, and to increase private sector economic growth which will redound to white American advantage.
And even raise taxes on the super-wealthy, most of whom only look white, as a method to shore up the long term solvency of Middle-America-benefitting Social Security and Medicare.
But the idea that we can marry anti-immigrationism and white identitarianism with Bernie’s economy ruination policies is absurd.
I disagree. I find the idea that white nations can survive capitalism in the 21st century to be absurd. There can be no real social cohesion without economic collectivism.
I’d be interested in seeing your argument for that position, as opposed to merely asserting it as though self-evident.
Sure. No problem.
Capitalism in the 21st century has evolved to be more global and more interconnected than it was in the past. In every developed country, small, local businesses have been displaced by larger companies, which are themselves being consumed by multinational corporations. The evidence for this is everywhere, but if you dispute this let me know and I can cite sources.
Multinational corporations are bigger, wealthier and more influential with government than small businesses. They can (and do) employ full-time lobbyists to groom elected representatives to make decisions which favour global business.
Again, the evidence for this is everywhere, but the inclusion of investor/state dispute settlement (ISDS) clauses in free trade agreements – clauses which undermine national sovereignty in favour of ‘investor rights’ – are a prime and contemporary example.
Because multinational corporations are, by definition, global in nature, they have no loyalty or belonging to nations. Indeed, borders are sand in the wheels of business. Borders restrict the trade of goods, so business lobbies for free trade agreements, which prevent nation states from protecting their own industries. Borders restrict the free movement of people, so business lobbies for open borders to increase the labour supply, address (mostly fictional) ‘skills shortages’ and grow the GDP (more economic activity) in a country or region.
On a social level, organised capital is also corrosive. By using its power to decimate trade unions, the labour share of GDP has been declining since Reagan / Thatcher and their Friedman inspired regimes in the 1980’s. Around the world, ‘men of the right’ cheered on this madness, too myopic to see past their (substantial) Cold War baggage.
As real wages shrank, women went into the workforce in greater numbers and for longer periods. They did this to maintain a material standard of living; one which capitalist advertising reinforced in every commercial media. The increased participation of women in the workforce had the effect of reducing native birth rates. Which would have been a problem for capital; less kids means a shrinking market and fewer workers. But mass immigration from developing countries resolves this problem – and has the added advantage of providing a more easily exploited workforce.
But, damn it, even in 2022 some people are still uncomfortable with being demographically replaced. Never mind. Just as advertising fueled consumer demand in the 20th century, now it can be used to normalise multiracial couples; see, kids, all the coolest white women wear Givenchy shoes, bought by their coloured partner.
For white nations to survive going forward, we’ll basically need to do two things. First we need to secure our homelands to protect the integrity of our ancestral people and cultures. That means having functional borders, and the backbone to stand up to those who seek to weaken them. And we need to encourage higher native birth rates. Even if that means accepting somewhat lower material standards of living.
As set out above, it has been – and still is – capitalism which is the prime mover in eroding borders, reducing fertility and normalising cosmopolitan societies. Rightists tend to avoid these facts, instead blaming ‘leftists’ (whatever that means) or God’s chosen people. I understand why. If you perceive politics as a straight line left to right, and you come to identify with the right, and capitalism is also on the right, then you want to avoid attacking capitalism.
Maybe that worked for a few decades after WW2, but it’s tired and irrelevant now. To paraphrase Alain de Benoist, Left? Right? That’s over.
So much for that. Perhaps you’d now do me the courtesy of justifying your own sweeping, Fukuyama-esque pronouncement that;
”The free market is deductively, as well as massively empirically demonstrably, superior..etc”
I very much question that the denizens of the United States really have to worry that much about having food on the table, as Goad seems to be saying. A look at their median waist circumference suggests otherwise. Besides, the unwashed starving masses from elsewhere in the world appear to very much care whether they are on the moral right side (in their view, of course) or not, maybe more so than they care whether they’ll have enough to eat to survive the next week.
Being badly fed is still a form of food deprivation. Americans are fed from the same feed stock as our pigs and cow, a feed stock designed to fatten livestock not make them healthy.
I try to avoid mainstream political caterwauling, but what I did see on the Right side of the campaigning was a lot about crime and inflation. There was some culture war stuff, but mostly it was crime and inflation. I do believe that there was some fraud—there’s always some fraud—but I suspect that what it now comes down to is that there are more of them than there are of us.
but I suspect that what it now comes down to is that there are more of them than there are of us.
That remains the heart of the matter, yes. And why our own pro-White ethnostate is necessary.
Exactly. The Boomers are dying off and now the political power is being transferred to a bunch of liberal-arts grad dimwits. Apparently making sure kids get puberty blocking treatment is more important than $7 a gallon gas, crime, rampant homelessness, WW3 etc.. Even if a “Red Wave” did happen its not gonna change the death spiral this country is on. Things are just gonna start falling apart more rapidly now. Bring it on. Let’s get it going because there’s obviously no political solution.
The ‘culture war’ is the enemy’s preferred battlefield. They have all the secure ground and it’s fortified beyond the reach of any siege of any kind for any realistic length of time. Only someone unfamiliar with Sun Tzu or Clausewitz would think fighting the enemy on their preferred field of battle would result in victory.
Stop fighting the enemy in the way the enemy wants you to fight or accept endless losses.
Fight the enemy in a way they do not understand or on ground that you have prepared to fight them.
The ‘culture war’ issues are just the last gasp of the Christian Coalition Grifter Class exploiting the folk and giving them nothing.
Future White politics cannot let religious hobby-horses determine any aspect of important policy, strategy or tactics.
We can minimize divisiveness and the need to constantly manage interactions if we do what the left has done for a long, long time: Allow everyone to have their own groups but only allow participation in the umbrella political group if you’re 100% on board with the central tendency.
If you’re not, you don’t get to play.
“We can minimize divisiveness and the need to constantly manage interactions if we do what the left has done for a long, long time: Allow everyone to have their own groups but only allow participation in the umbrella political group if you’re 100% on board with the central tendency.
If you’re not, you don’t get to play.”
How does one get into this position? By fighting the culture wars.
The problem is not that the right engages in such battles, but that we tend to choose the wrong one and argue the wrong way. Even when we argue our positions, we argue from the premises that equality and tolerance are good, and most importantly, that we’re not racist.
Take affirmative action for example. Despite this policy mostly affecting white men, we feel the need to include discrimination against Asians in our arguments against said policy to prove we aren’t racist. Asians are the reason this policy has gotten back into the spotlight.
What if Ivy League universities start to allow more Asians in? Are we going to stop arguing against affirmative action because only whites will be affected?
Another example of arguing for right-wing policies from left-wing premises occurs when we argue against illegal immigration. Instead of fighting to abolish it, we argue that the legality is what matters, not the people coming over here being completely alien to us.
The left fought a culture war in the 60s and won. We need to fight one too. However, we must do it outside the egalitarian moral framework of the left.
I’m dumbfounded as to what happened. This is beyond embarrassing for Republicans. This should have been served to them on a platinum platter. As much as I hate to admit this, I think Republicans are going to have to find a new leader. Trump has simply run out of steam I think. For God sakes, he blamed Melania for talking him into endorsing Dr. Oz, who gave favorable TV coverage to transgender kids. 2016 was fun and all but it’s not coming back. But it could be simply the electorate. The idea of voting Republican is so abhorrent to large swarths of the electorate to the point that they’ll vote against their own economic interests to ensure Democrats have power so they don’t look “racist.”
“For God sakes, he blamed Melania for talking him into endorsing Dr. Oz…”
I’m sure the media would never fabricate a story like that. They love Trump too damned much to risk hurting his feelings.
Trump posted on Truth Social:
“There is a Fake Story being promulgated by third rate reporter Maggie Hagaman of the Failing New York Times, that I am blaming our great former First Lady, Melania, and Sean Hannity, that I was angry with their pushing me to Endorse Dr. Oz. First of all Oz is a wonderful guy who really worked hard and was a very good candidate, but he WAS LONG IN THE RACE before I ever Endorsed him, they had NOTHING to do with it, he was not a ‘denier’ (his mistake!), & I was not at all ANGRY. Fake News!”
“I’d like to apologize to Melania and Sean Hannity for all of the Fake News and fictional stories (made up out of thin air, with no sources despite them claiming there are!), being dumped on you by reporters and ‘News’ Organizations who know these stories are not true. The Fake News Media is ‘Crazed’ and totally out of control. I only wish the public could understand how really corrupt and crooked they are. They MAKE UP stories and then push them down your throats. Our Country is in big trouble!”
Maybe I got MKULTRA’d but maybe Trump is lying. Either way, I think that Trump has run out of steam.
Nah. Trump hasn’t run out of steam. That’s what the media and the Liz Cheney wing of the Democratic party keep insisting. But Trump has the support of a majority of the Republican members of Congress. Even for his more crazy-assed ideas. Name another politician who can say that.
Make no mistake, it’s not Trump the establishment hates. It’s you and me. It’s the deplorables who voted Trump into office in 2016. The left projects on Trump’s supporters all the horrible ethnically-centered things they themselves are guilty of and Trump is the avatar for all that hate.
Keep in mind, it wasn’t Trump who encouraged Republicans to vote for the Democrat. It was Liz Cheney.
Perhaps we’re all getting MKULTRA’d?
The idea of voting Republican is so abhorrent to large swarths of the electorate to the point that they’ll vote against their own economic interests to ensure Democrats have power so they don’t look “racist.”
This is a useful insight. It’s one more reason why the GOP cannot be the primary (or even prominent) instrument of White renewal.
But I don’t think we need a ‘national’ party.
What we need is a thousand micro-parties networked via a ‘popular front’.
What baffles me is that there is no rebellion coming from the young. The conformity coming from the Left is suffocating so it seems only natural that there would be some kind of significant pushback against official dogma. I’m sure there are exceptions but it looks like the vast majority of Millennials and Zoomers are eating this shit up
https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2020/05/14/on-the-cusp-of-adulthood-and-facing-an-uncertain-future-what-we-know-about-gen-z-so-far-2/
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/18/the-2020-election-shows-gen-zs-voting-power-for-years-to-come.html
Gen Z is 52% white per Pewresearch article written in 2020. So if Zoomers of all races vote along the same percentage lines as their elders, a 63% vote for the Democrats is pretty much what we’d expect.
In 2020, voters 65 and over came out about 52% for Trump to 47% for Biden, but that age demographic is much whiter than Generation Z, so from the looks of things the DR hypothesis seems to be holding water.
If you control for race, white Gen Z is just a few percentage points shy of being as right-wing as boomers. The problem is they have to compete against hordes of foreigners. My prediction is that Gen Z will be the most polarized generation thus far. They also haven’t had their 2008 style market crash yet, but that probably isn’t too far off.
“If you control for race, white Gen Z is just a few percentage points shy of being as right-wing as boomers.”
Exactly—even while blaming boomers for everything, they rank worse than boomers where it counts. The narrative has been counterfactual from the start. I’ve been saying this for years.
I never got the “blame the boomers!” meme myself. Even the early tail end of the boomers were just starting to vote during the passage of the Hart Celler Act.
If one accepts these entirely arbitrary generational demarcation lines, the first boomers were born in 1945. The Hart-Cellar Act was passed in 1965, when the minimum voting age was 21. No boomers voted for any politicians who wound up voting for it.
It’s kind of astonishing how counterfactual the boomer meme is. It manages to get absolutely everything wrong.
This millennial totally forgot that the voting age used to be 21 and not 18. xP Thank you for the correction.

Are those “midterm” things over yet? Can I return from Antarctica yet?
Can I safely watch The Real Housewives Of Pretoria again without being assailed by screeching my-side-right-or-wrong zealots and weepy pious prisspots on the commercial breaks? Accusing everyone but themselves of vague “fear-mongering” which, of course, is blatant fear-mongering?
Anybody know if democracy won? I understand it was on the ballot this time. Fingers crossed.
Clearly, the Russians interfered in this one.
You could be on to something, Bob Roberts.
Appears specious platitudes and shameless hyperbole were on the ballot. And they won!
Pee-party dossier incoming!
There is little possibility of “wave” elections anymore. Only whites in large numbers actually care about the national interest, as opposed to their own parochial or ethnosectarian ones. As whites are replaced, more and more of the electorate is off limits to appeals for sweeping political change. This was predicted (but only by the Racial and Paleocon Rights) long ago. We have always been correct (even if powerless, for deep reasons of evolutionary racial maladaptation).
But this time what prevented a better GOP showing was abortion, and the jackass called “Trump”.
How do you feel the GOP could have played the ‘abortion card’ better? There’s a hard core of single-issue GOP voters on the abortion issue. Would it be better to shove them out of the lifeboat for the urban female vote? (((David Cole))) seemed to think that the GOP had handed the DNC a winner with giving the ‘abortion crazies’ and their positions a prominent role. I know in my area, the DNC hammered hard on ‘women’s reproductive health’ as a key issue directed squarely at women voters.
I don’t think the issue is abortion. I think the issue is ‘one size fits all’ government.
I would hope that ethnonationalists would be able to present a coherent governing vision that transcends ‘one size fits all’. It might, in fact, be our critical contribution to political history.
I’ve been having this discussion ad nauseum with my email chain of rightist pals.
While I strongly supported the repeal of Roe on Constitutionalist grounds (there is absolutely no doubt that, jurisprudentially, Roe was a bogus decision; I say this as a ‘prudential’ abortion rights supporter {ie, I support legal abortion in America today for white + civic preservationist reasons; in the Ethnostate, I would be moderately prolife: opposed to legal abortion except in cases of rape, incest, the mother’s life being in grave danger, and severe foetal deformity/retardation}), I would have hoped that: 1) moronic and/or selfish prolifers would not have started the Dobbs case until 2021-22, so that it would only have been taken up by SCOTUS in 2023; 2) GOP-dominated SCOTUS would have exhibited the good sense earlier in the year to have refused to take it up until 2023; 3) once Dobbs was decided, stupid/selfish prolifers would have done absolutely nothing to further inflame the national abortion controversy until after the midterms; and finally, 4) the GOP primary voters would have exhibited some tactical forethought and rejected those candidates who literally were not only generically prolife (as most Republicans have been since the 90s), but true, prolife maximalists –> persons, like PA GOP Gov candidate Mastriano, who want to ban all abortions, even ones done in cases of rape or to save a woman’s life. That idiot destroyed Dr. Oz’s run (Mastriano lost by 14 pts; Oz, 4 pts), which has given us the brain-damaged commie freak Fetterman (which means his Brazilian immigrant radical leftist/replacementist, Rasputinist wife) as the new PA Senator.
All of this triggered a massive single young female anti-GOP voter backlash. The data bear this out. Add to the abortion issue Trump’s petulance and tone-deaf narcissism, and what should have been a modest but real Red Wave turned out to be a Big Nothing. Life will get worse because of it. Prolifers need to be downgraded a bit within the GOP hierarchy – and everybody needs to move beyond Trump.
“But this time what prevented a better GOP showing was abortion, and the jackass called ‘Trump’.”
This is all on Liz Cheney and the Liz Cheney wing of the Republican party.
Liz Cheney was successful in her attack on Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans. Look at all the split tickets. The numbers tell the tale.
I apologize for piercing the rancid little bubble of seethingly incurable moral outrage in which so many of you have willingly encased yourselves over the past few years, but eating is more essential to human survival than constantly reassuring yourself that you’re a good guy who’s on the good side.
And what is continuance without even a glimmer of normalcy?
Why are we still talking like elections are still a thing? Especially since 2020 Sorry guys, you’re on Europe’s level now. Elections have predetermined outcomes and the sole function of the media is to make the majority population accept the “results” and explain to us all why hugely unpopular policies are “winning” and why healthy, popular policies deserve to be losing.
Record homicide rates Charleston WV, York PA, Waterbury CT, Wichita Falls TX, Little Rock AR, Lexington KY, Macon GA, Tacoma WA, Colorado Springs CO, Milwaukee WI, Portland OR, Rochester NY, Toledo OH, St. Paul MN, Albuquerque NM, Birmingham AL. The violence raging in the Ukraine and in America’s cities continues, presided over by the decrepit Biden administration, with no end in sight.
Interesting that JimBird is coming out with Bertolt Brecht’s “Food comes first, then morals” line. Brecht also said (I paraphrase): “If the government doesn’t like the people, it can elect a new people.”
Its never too early to think about the next election… which Donald Trump will wreck if still around. He is so hated and so motivating for the left, they will all show up at polls and a bag of turnip greens might be able to beat him. If he runs as a third party candidate, he will split the vote and also give a win for the left. While Hillary Clinton is not nearly hated as much by the right, she is disliked enough that the Dems don’t both to run her again. Will the new or old right show such sense?
White men, acknowledge who your real enemies are: 1. jews, 2. white women, 3. negroids. Welcome to 3rd world status as the population now actually votes in favor of a party that is destroying the country.
With all the howling, wailing and gnashing of teeth over abortion, has there been a single instance of a woman unable to get the womb-cleansing roto-rooter service?
“White men, acknowledge who your real enemies are: … 2. white women, …”
This is not true.
Look at who white women vote for.
55% voted Trump in the 2020 election:

Our women are with us despite what the gaslighting media would have us believe.
My take from that table is that approx 6% less (61/55) women than men (Republican) voted for Mr Trump. That would be approx 3.5million votes which could have made Trump the winner.
87% blacks voted democrat and 76% jews voted democrat.
