Catching Up on this Historic Moment in American History

I fell asleep around midnight (EST) and woke up a little after 6:00am to stunned delight about the Republicans winning the Presidency, the Senate, and the House. I’m not a particularly religious person but fell to my knees and offered a silent prayer of immense gratitude.

This historic moment is something I needed to see with my own eyes.  Given that you might be in a similar situation, here you are: minutes before Trump achieved 270 electoral college votes.Here’s Trump’s Victory Speech.   Steve Bannon’s reaction

    1. l had a vaguely similar hoochgow experience.
      when l got out l was closer than ever to ideal weight and cd do 200 pushups.

      summon the corrective action all ye now at the helm.

      1. oooooooohhhhh my.
        just played Steve’s clip. l’ll save y’all the trouble;
        “I gotta tell ya, he may be empathetic, he may have a kind heart,
        he may be a good man, but we’re not”.

        ha ha ha !!! Donald remains squeaky clean and meanwhile Steve in his new role as ‘America’s Vaclak Havel’ (google it) is on a decapitating binge.

        l predicted it folks, 2 years ago, held my breath a cpl times but lo, l detected Divine Intervention…. kept me confident. now the proof.

        congrats to you and all of us kenji.

        and please do what l have been doing since decision time 2 years ago, getting ready to sell and leave. the shipping container lm renting to effect the move is due Friday.

        1. I don’t get it. Why move now? Are you a Democrat who hates Trump, or is it just time to leave because you see something on the horizon?

  1. I am still worried the Dems will announce a “glitch” in the voting machines.

    Victory has yet to sink in.

  2. Puleeze!! A nutcase has been elected to the White House. I want off this planet. Fly me to the moon!! Oh the horror!! However I will admit, Harris was not a good choice, the Dems need to move to the centre.

      1. no kidding. hey NB, stop channeling biden who declared ALL Trump supporters floating garbage. you just declared even more of them now as crazy.

        ummmm, do the fcukin’ math.

    1. “I grew up in a Middle Class family.”
      Pretending to be an Indian didn’t work for Pocahontas; and pretending not to be an Indian didn’t work for Kamala.

    2. I’ll speak to Elon to build the rocket, but before you go, could you please talk to your fellow libs and try to convince them what you just said to the rest of us? The dems have completely gone off the rails. They are the cause of their own demise.

    3. To all you Trumpers out there in Crazy Land: Let’s take this conversation up a year from now when Trump proves (even to you blockheads) what a foolish idiot he is.

  3. There was a warm wind from the south last night. And if you listened carefully you could hear things: sobbing, the crackling of burning files; and hammers smashing hard-drives.

      1. The resurrection!
        Uh-oh… I think I just committed a sin, but if God chose Trump, I don’t see why I shouldn’t agree.

  4. So RSBN calls the State of PA and the Presidency for Trump at 1:20 am EST (11:20pm PST). About the same time Fox News called it. So my relieved wife went to bed, and I decided to flip through the other ‘Election’ channels … NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, BBC … et.al. Not a single one had called it for Trump. Not one. They all had Trump sitting on 266 EV’s … so I stayed up to watch for the shenanigans to begin … and waited … and waited … and then finally about 4-hours later … the AP finally threw in the towel as the CIA had no more secret boxes of ballots from downtown Philly. Game Over (for now).

    Now … just watch the shitshow they’ll start throwing at Trump. Sayyyyy … does the President-elect get upgraded SS protection? Over and above the presidential candidate? He’s gonna need it.

    1. It took them that long to accept that they couldn’t get that water pipe busted in Pennsylvania.

    2. all Donald need do is take HIS hand picked and proven entourage, ram THEM thru the SS qualifying system (if the fat tw*t featured in the clip falling all over herself when the 1st bullet passed thru on its way to history fumble fumble fumble anybody can do it) and voila, all official and legal like and NOT gonna be a repeat of the assassaination of indira ghandi by her OWN bodygurards

    3. Yeah, I also noted that the EV count froze at 266 or 267, depending on who you were watching, for quite a while — even well after Trump claimed victory.

      I expect some shenanigans as well.

      Note that Kamala only got 66 million votes this time around, compared to Biden’s supposed 81 million in 2020. Trump got slightly less votes than he got in 2020, but this time, scored a clean sweep. Explain that one, AllanS.

      I suspect we’re going to find out the real truth behind 2020, and hopefully, people will be going to jail over it.

      1. It’s ironic that if Trump had won in 2020, they would have been rid of him this time around with perhaps a more viable candidate. But now they might have put full light on their connivance’s of back then and in the years since.

        Where the missing votes disappeared to since 2020 certainly does raise interesting questions about how could an invisible candidate get so many votes and not be able to repeat this time around. Where did all those votes go to? Between Harris and Trump something like 15 million votes have evaporated

  5. Looking forward to Melania’s second turn in 8 years redecorating the White house. Gonna be tough polishing all those drool stains out of the top of the Resolute Desk.

    1. And God knows what Trans and Gay bodily fluids will need to be shampooed out of the carpets … and scrubbed off the furniture.

      1. I’m sure the cleaning crew got a lot of valuable experience when the Clintons moved out. Hopefully the Bidens leave some of the artwork behind.

  6. I am so happy – I had great trepidation about this election. This has been an “annus horribillis” for me. First my sister/best friend died suddenly in March and then last week, my oldest nephew died at 39. Lots of change, and none of it good until I opened smalldeadanimals. Nothing is on my msn opening page about the election. All a bunch of sniveling losers!

    1. My condolences, Big Momma. I, too, had great trepidation about this election. I stayed away from the computer yesterday and just got on with life. This morning’s coffee was the best I’ve had all week!

    2. I am not obsessed with US politics but after the first assassination attempt I said that the picture of Trump with his fist in the air, blood on his cheek and the US flag in the background was going to be a historically iconic photograph. IMO, that was the moment he won the presidency. Everything after that was desperation plays by the Democrat Party and their allies. X-Twitter creating a free speech zone was also essential as it diminished the power of propaganda. It will be an interesting 4 years.

    3. I’m sorry for all your sad news. Seems like there are fewer happy stories as we get older… but I believe Trump’s win is one of them. Keep putting your comments out there and know the SDA tribe is rooting for you.

    1. The NATO chief has already sent congratulations to PDJT … speaking of groveling and sniveling.

  7. Trump just won his third presidential election. There was really no choice here and still scary how close an absolutely vapid candidate got to the White House. I don’t ever want to see her horse face anymore.

    1. I fear I will never lose these nightmares of the anointed one cackling her way through a planet-threatening negotiation with the nation’s fiercest rivals. “What if we played Rock-Paper-Scissors to resolve that last point?”

    2. You’ll see her again, unfortunately, early in January, when she is supposed to ratify the election.
      We’ll see what happens there. Don’t be too surprised if Kamala suddenly develops some form of Covid, or something.

  8. If Trump actually delivers on his promises, this indeed a new day for America and the world. God bless Trump and guide his Presidency.

    1. LindaL, “If Trump actually delivers on his promises”
      I think he will try, but the deep state is a big problem that will oppose him every which way they can.
      Hoo boy, he’s gonna be a very busy man!

  9. I’m shocked that the votes were counted, and the election called within hours of the polls closing. Shocked. It’s almost as if we ARE the most technologically sophisticated nation in the world.

    But why do I have a nagging feeling that there’s another shoe going to drop somewhere? Because the Dem’s will do what Dem’s do?

      1. As my best friend’s wife just posted on Facquebook this morning … “Today feels like Christmas Eve, and a colonoscopy rolled into one”

        Yeah … the colonoscopy is coming …

      1. My favorite was the punchline to the joke “What do Willie Brown, and the 2024 election have in common?”

    1. From his dank, dark, basement … where he was hoarding all those Kamala ballots … like a senile hoarder does.

  10. I notice Trump has 276 electoral college votes to Harris’ 223. Does this not mean that several votes have still not been assigned. There are 4 states still counting – NV, AZ, MI and AK. Trump is leading in all 4. This represents over 30 more votes. Does this mean Trump will pass 300 to Harris’ 223? That would be a massacre. If I was a Hollywood superstar I’d be cashing those “support” cheques ASAP, and looking for real estate in Canada 🙂

    1. If the associates of Weinstein, Epstein and Diddy no longer have credibility with working class voters, that is a long overdue victory in itself.

  11. I’ve been hunting for a hard noded assessment of the outstanding votes. A couple of the swing states don’t seem to be that solid, and I can see a path for her to catch up to his popular vote. Don’t count your chickens yet.

    1. We’ll Always Have Fani.
      The lingering threat of lawfare is certainly in the air. There is nothing Biden’s corrupt DOJ won’t do.

  12. Like Hell-ary, Camel-la probably had a temper tantrum, and wasn’t civil enough to give a concession speech. Her biggest problem was believing her own propaganda.

    She can still get to the White House! (Watch your back, Joe!)

  13. BLM and Antifa riots in three… two… one…

    And her name isn’t Camel-la, it’s Kameltoe. (Sean Connery voice) Kameltoe Hairass.

    1. People are still wondering how to pronounce “Kamela”. Here’s a trick: Just say “Cameltoe” but with your mouth full.

  14. Breaking news: Canada announces a new policy to help disgruntled Democrats.

    It’s called Medical Assistance Injured Democrats

  15. Elections are a referendum on the incumbent. America had enough of Biden and the border. The high cost of everything.
    The illegitimacy of the Kameltoe candidacy. The toxic influence of Pelosi/Obama on the party. They are now 0-2 with a woman candidate. It will be awhile before they try that again.

    The Dems are completely out of touch with America. They don’t know who the middle class is or their discontent.

    Harris is now relegated to the trash can of history.

  16. Scott Jennings and JD Vance are a new generation of conservative centre* with fearless arguments that the socialist mass media cartel and so called ‘Democratic’ party cannot, in good conscience, argue against, though one wonders it they have actual conscience.

    *Have not decide what to call it, so this is temporary definition. I would call it mainstream of America.

  17. Bannon’s speech: naming many of the scummy miscreants.

    My wife frequently observes that rightists seem to avoid mentioning Obama who in my opinion is evil incarnate: one of history’s great con men and certainly a central figure in the installation of the crooked Biden puppet and in the selection of the two worst candidates in US history, two bone headed, empty headed country-hating Marxists.

    Nope. Bannon doesn’t mention him either.

  18. The Democratic party sold their souls to the Marxists with Obama and have been riding his coat tails ever since. The loose cannon populist loves America and Americans. How can normal Americans not support him in light of the alternative. I really enjoy the exploding heads of the leftist establishment. With what looks like both houses and a decent supreme court, he has no excuse for not being able to make decent appointments and drain the swamp but you won’t see a balanced budget in his term (or very likely ever again). There’s a good chance he can end the hostilities in the Ukraine, correct the insane energy/climate policies and fix the border. We need an election now more than ever as we will not benefit from having him delight in tormenting the Spawn for fun and profit.

  19. Robert,
    Not at all clear GOP will win the House (unfortunately).
    Lots of counting & “ballot finding” still to be completed.

  20. All Trump did was borrow a page from Ralph Klein’s book. Find out which way the parade is headed and get out in front of it.

    Regular folks for the win.

    1. “I give up. Censorship here has gotten out of control.”

      You must have used a banned word:

      f0rce
      t0rch
      sc0rch
      s0rcery
      div0rce
      0rchard
      p0rcupine
      mot0rcycle

      (etc, etc)
