The Native Iowan

Saturday 9 November, 826am. Been an interesting and, for me, very busy week.

Of course, the US Election is the newz, the bluez…

The main question I have is, “Where are the fire works?”, where is the “wild in the streets”, the unrest, the emotion, the anarchy? We were told that IF DJT won there would be hell to pay. Hitler back in power and the Brown Shirts are going to herd all those who are not Trumpters into cages, camps, detention and, eeeeeee, worse…. DJT is a Nazi. He will do Nazi things to those he dont like… run, now, quickly…. RUNNNN!!!!!!!

I personally think we have heard a collective sigh of relief that Kamala and Tim and the DNC Elites are NOT moving into the big house. Enough liberal looniness!

Seriously… where is the predicted/ hoped for violent response to the fascist mob DJT leads? Where are the Kamala-Tim supporters that were going to show us all how passionate they are, how fervently they believe their rhetoric…

Nope, a total no-show, a non-event, a cancelled event… while Kamala cried all night long and left her supporters standing, waiting. While she played the fragile babe routine, the FireWorks simply didn’t happen. There was no spark. The spark is gone. Dead.

I actually feel a sense a relief, a happiness from the Kamala-Tim team. They were/ are imposters and I’m sure will be happy to take the costumes off and go home.

While DJT is preparing to knock some sense into the Swamp. He’s got some formidable helpers. Its should be worth watching.

Fact is that DJT won by a majority, some say a land slide… so for a change, for the first time in a long time the USofA is unified… Damn! Unified under DJT… Double Damn…

58% of the votes cast were for DJT.

AND… the electorate gave DJT the House and the Senate as well. I’d call that a mandate.

Not sure if 58% is a “blue wave”, but from a democratic process point of view the Voice of the People has been heard saying…. “… give me that old time religion”…

I like that song…

In all seriousness, after having thought about this for a couple days, I am the opinion that it boils down to one word that has more than one meaning…

“Liberal”

Liberal means different things to different people… In my way of thinking I see “Liberal” used to mean a mindset, an attitude… a love of liberty for one and all. I am liberal and don’t give a tinker’s damn what kind of motorcycle you ride, whom you sleep with, what you do on your own. Nope, I’m not prejudiced at all. I do my thing, you do your thing, we are liberal enough, enlightened enough to meet in the middle.

I also see “liberal” to mean being free with the public cheque book (check book for you yanks). Everyone must have equity to be equal and we’ll make everyone equal through the public treasury. We’ll take $$$ from those who have acquired wealth and give, by way of social programs, to those who have less, need more. Or need a sex change while in prison, or assistance illegally entering the US, or a few billion to piss away on green hydrogen, or…

I believe that this past election cycle was more about liberal v liberal than anything else.

The Leftist attitude of crippling the population through foolish social programs is more than not the factor that swung folks away from the DNC and to DJT. Look to CA for an example. What are the trends we see now, after this past election. I see a conservative swing on the WestCoast. Time to stop shitting on the sidewalks…

Also, the total unawareness (or disregard) of the DNC of their electorate has taken its toll. The DNC took too many people, too many groups for granted. And paid the price. They expected many divergent groups to vote for them, to be good poodles and do as told, for the good of all, for the good of the country, for the Liberals being liberal with your $$.

It didn’t happen.

The DNC did great with the Trans, LGBTZYA groups. Did great with the self proclaimed “childless cat folks”. But the main stream working class folks, male, female, black, white, brown, young and old voters didn’t get the memo. Didn’t feel the vibe. And voted for DJT.

Damn…

Back to that old time religion… Its good enough for me.

More later
