The world’s only one man media empire
The Butterfly Effect encapsulates how small changes in variables lead to big changes in outcome. History is the Butterfly Effect written into human affairs, but it is even harder to untangle than math or physics. Who’d have believed a once and future President making an announcement after coming down a golden escalator would lead to… Continue reading Donald Trump and the greatest, most improbable political story ever told
The people have spoken and they have shouted: We will not be told what to do, what to think, what to believe, how to act, how to live, and how to vote in record numbers. At the risk of sounding like Michelle Obama, I have never been more proud of my country than last Tuesday… Continue reading Why Trump’s massive victory gives me hope for the future and renewed pride in the American experiment
For all the talk of having a front row to history, this is what it really looks like in action. I used to believe there was no crazier son of a bitch to occupy the Oval Office than Teddy Roosevelt, no greater unstoppable force, but the Bull Moose might have just been taken down a… Continue reading Trump stands alone in a historic victory unlike any other, an unstoppable force emerging more powerful than ever
No one in American history, perhaps even the history of the world, has ever confronted this level of opposition, both from his self-proclaimed detractors and the broader establishment, and not changed their attitude, style, or approach in the slightest. Passionately adored by his supporters and just as passionately hated by his detractors, the only thing… Continue reading Win or lose, Trump did it his way and that was enough to be the defining political figure of our age
Inherent in the outrage is the idea that media outlets exist to advance their progressive view of the world, prioritizing their beliefs and preferences above all others. Progressives have whipped themselves into a frenzy over The Washington Post’s decision not to endorse a candidate for president this year or, assuming they stick to it, any… Continue reading The Washington Post’s endorsement “scandal” says a lot more about progressives than anything else
Back in 2017, the establishment was able to convince themselves President Trump was a one-of-a-kind defect in American politics that they could correct somehow, but that illusion will be shattered should he win again. If former President Donald Trump prevails next week, his victory will result in a political contradiction of the highest possible order. … Continue reading The crazy contradictions of a Trump victory
While former President Donald Trump might not prevail next week, we can say with surety that the hope, the joy, the vibes, the brat, and everything else that was supposed to propel Vice President Kamala Harris to victory has faded, to be replaced by what can best be summarized as Orange Man Bad. Rather incredibly… Continue reading Harris has nothing on Trump and everyone knows it
The events of this summer make it clear President Trump is risking his very life to run, coming within less than an inch of having his head blown off on national television. What selfish, self-interested person would voluntarily lay their lives on the line any time they appear in public? With two weeks to go… Continue reading Is Trump really only in it for himself?
Strangely, the entire issue seems to have disappeared from the public consciousness, an event so traumatic, we’ve suppressed the memory of forced lockdowns, masking, school closures, and more, save to criticize President Trump’s economic record by cherry picking a period during which we effectively committed economic suicide. One of the many ironies of the 2024… Continue reading Reminder: Democrats lead an unprecedented assault on freedom and democracy during the pandemic
In a wise strategic decision for both campaigns, Governor Walz focused almost exclusively on former President Trump’s unfitness for office and Senator Vance presented a calm, compelling, and rational case for President Trump without the usual bombast. Much has been made of the fact that Tuesday’s Vice Presidential debate between Senator JD Vance and Governor… Continue reading A civil debate, but not for the reasons many think
