The Left’s #Election2024 Steal or No Steal Conundrum

James Taylor: This is the works! Either we’re out of business or bigger than ever before.

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington 1939

I have said for years that the only reason why Donald Trump won in 2016 was that the Democrat Bosses believed the polls and thought that Trump had no prayer, thus when Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania suddenly were going for Trump on election night the Democrats did not have the apparatus in place to steal the election.

(The tell for this was the VERY long delay in calling the final states to put Trump over the top and the fact that when those states were called, they were all called within a few minutes of each other. Once they realized they couldn’t pull it off, they left the numbers be released.)

At the time I warned

The time to be ready for 2020 Fraud is NOW!

However that won’t be the case in 2020,  I’ll wager that in 2020 the bosses in Milwaukee, Detroit, Madison and elsewhere will be ready, we’ll see plenty of mail in ballots and absentee ballots that we didn’t see before in those states and plenty of voters looking to go for the GOP will be in the same spot that Steven Kruiser was on election night.

We have four years to prepare for this so we’d better get ready because as our friends on the left have demonstrated in the past, they play for keeps.

After all you don’t think Soros has been quietly sinking millions into AG races, you know the people who would be protesting election fraud on a local level, just because it’s fun?

And sure enough the Trump White House didn’t take the best advice I had ever given and the steal went forward and state officials and judges dismissed case after case (many times on standing) and (unknown at the time) Federal officials thanks to both action and inaction turned what was going to be a large but peaceful rally on January 6th into an excuse to jail dozens if not hundreds in jail in the hope of setting an example, protest the steal, have your life changed forever.

Now it’s 2024. All the apparatus for the steal is still in place and the preparations made ready long ago but several wild cards came into play that had not been anticipated and the one thing that was, didn’t turn out as expected.

  • Bobby Kennedy decided to run for President and the move to block him from the Democrat primaries and then from the ballot when he decided to go independent drove him to Trump
  • Despite getting the candidate they wanted (Donald Trump) the Democrats discovered that he had learned from his previous mistake and pushed both early voting and ballot harvesting that had been the mainstay of Democrat steal efforts.
  • Joe Biden’s debate performance exposed the entire MSM, already having credibility problems, as liars who had been protecting him for months if not years and blunted them as an effective weapon.
  • The move to push Biden off the ticket angered his team to the point where Biden while being forced to buckle to pressure, threw them a curve and forced them to take Kamala Harris as their leader.
  • The use of lawfare against Trump completely backfired as he completely refused to be cower from the prospect of Jail as did Steve Bannon who went in and came out defiant while people who didn’t like Trump were appalled at the use of the government to imprison political foes
  • Red State Governors like Ron DeSantis exporting their illegals to “Sanctuary Cities” in blue states at a volume where the problem of illegal immigration affected Democrat voter blocs
  • Their move to squash any potential opposition to Kamala outraged many Democrats (particularly I suspect Bernie voters) who realized their votes for Biden in the primary not only counted for nothing, but found there were not going to be given another chance to vote.
  • The (their?) assassination attempt(s) on Trump not only failed but Trump demonstrated a courage and defiance that they had not anticipated completely changing many peoples perception of him.
  • The combination of:
    • Democrats in general and Kamala’s attacks on men in particular
    • Trump’s reaction to the attempt to kill him
    • Illegal immigration finally affecting blue states
  • ….finally started driving Black and Latino voters (particularly men) to him
  • Trump’s outreach to Bobby Kennedy which turned an opponent into an ally.
  • The exceptional choice of J.D. Vance who has proved spectacular on the national stage both as a candidate and a foil to the media
  • The utter ineptness of Kamala Harris as a candidate even in scripted situations.
  • A result so obvious that places like the LA Times, USA Today and the Washington Post are unwilling to endorse the Democrat candidate for the white house

and finally and most importantly

  • Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter and his decision to open the gates of free speech breaking the monopoly of the Deep state/tech state on information

All of this has us in a position where a week away from the election not only is Trump leading in all the swing states with a bunch of early votes banked in many states but he is expanding the map to places where like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan in 2016, the apparatus for a steal is not in place and likely can’t be put in place in time.

In short we are in a position where while the apparatus is in place in key states to steal and election you have a strong likely hood that it would fail because of

  • Increased vigilance
  • A larger margin to overcome
  • A candidate even less credible then LOL 81 million Joe

All of this puts us back to the same formula I postulated 8 years ago:

If 
(Number of votes you can get away stealing) > (Number of votes you might lose by) 

Then

Go For it!

Else

Release your vote totals as is

Endif

You will not I have bolded the key phrase get away because we are at a point where it is not only likely that a steal might fail do to the volume of the vote, but the dissatisfaction of the electorate has, in my opinion, reached a point where officials held their noses and went along with the steal last time because they disliked Trump might decide against playing ball.

Furthermore if the steal DOES fail you will not only get a Trump administration with a Trump AG and a bunch of new Trump lawyers at Justice but you will get a Trump administration that has had an election stolen from them hell bent on getting those who did tried to do it to them again.

That is the risk/reward that is now in place for the dishonest and dishonorable undemocratic left. Do they go Jim Taylor and go all in figuring that a 2nd administration in a row will allow them to cement power to the point where Washington will be Chicago forevermore or do they decide to go George Paar the Duke of Duval county figuring they will hold their fire and keep their heads down for the opening they need to return to power.

Regardless of what they dishonest and dishonorable left do we should assume they are going all Jim Taylor and go all out to beat them.

Mike Piccento’s answer to the Obvious Beyoncé Kamala Harris Question

I write for MONEY!

Robert Stacy McCain

While Donald Trump was flying to Michigan after his 3 hour session with Joe Rogan Kamala Harris was in Houston where a crowd of 30,000 had gathered.

That crowd has been told by media reports that pop superstar Beyoncé was going to be there and at least one news organization (NBC) reported that she would be performing for free at the event.

Pop superstar Beyoncé will appear with Vice President Kamala Harris at her event in Houston on Friday evening, according to three sources familiar with the plans. 

Beyoncé is also expected to perform, said one of the sources, who has direct knowledge of the preparations. The Washington Post first reported the news of Beyoncé’s appearance.

Old friend Captain (am I the only person who still calls him that?) Ed Morrissey notes that the Post was a lot more circumspect in terms of facts vs rumor that NBC news in their story

The Washington Post was a bit more careful, perhaps as a result of the “false rumors” that Beyoncé would perform on the final night of the Democrat convention. Their report on Thursday didn’t include a suggestion that she would sing, but would “appear” at the rally

Nevertheless 30,000 people turned out knowing that Beyoncé was going to be there and the Harris campaign gleefully noted the large crowd.

I suspect those 30,000 came fully expecting her to hear Beyoncé sing. I suspect this because when she got on the stage and introduced Kamala Harris and left WITHOUT signing thing went a tad south for the Harris campaign.

How many of those 30,000 who have not yet voted do you think left that “event” feeling duped? How many of them do you think got home after paying for parking and navigating the traffic that comes from a 30K crowd for a concert that didn’t happen just so she can get Politico to claim she “won the day” might just be, at worst, pissed off enough to vote Trump or at best pissed off enough to stay home for Election 2024?

Ted Cruz should send her a “Thank you” card.

But all of this leads to one simply question: Why didn’t Beyoncé sing?

I mean surely she could have done at least one tune to please the crowd? I understand that it’s not the 1940’s where Bing Crosby could just break into song without a band and her performances might usually require more of a setup for it to come near the quality of what a concert performance might be, but one might think a professional singer is capable of singing a song without the bells and whistles and still not tank.

Furthermore while the idea of a celeb being dense is not foreign to me (after all she endorsed Harris) it’s quite inconceivable to me that she would be unaware of the negative effect that her failure to sing would have on the crowd both immediately at the event and afterwards when their dissatisfaction at the bait and switch would be amplified both in person to friends and on social media.

And if she had been duped by the Harris campaign assuring her that all they wanted was her introduction but telling the press she would sing in the hope of pressuring her to do so, she could have easily bowed out claiming illness or some other reason for not appearing as announced while still giving an endorsement.

So the question remains on the floor: If she actually wants Harris to win why didn’t she sing for her that day?

I don’t claim to know the answer but suspect the it can be traced to some advice that an old Italian man once gave to a young boxer named Rocco Francis Marchegiano who you know better as the only undefeated Heavyweight Champion in history Rocky Marciano back in the 1940’s

“Someday you’re going to win the title and then a lot of guys you never saw before will be coming around,” Mike Piccento had told him long before, “If they want to be with you let them pay. They’ve got the money. They can afford it. They don’t want to be with just plain Rocky. They want to be with a champion. If you were nobody they wouldn’t give you a second look. And if you go downhill, they’ll drop you like a hot potato. So let them pay.”

Everett M Skehan (with family assistance by Peter, Louis and Mary Ann Marciano) Rocky Marciano Biography of a First son page 215

or consider this classic exchange from the old All in the Family Episode when Sammy Davis Jr. visits the Bunker home:

Archie Bunker: Can you maybe give us a little preview of one of the songs you’re gonna do?
Gloria Stivic : Oh, daddy. Mr. Davis makes his living entertaining. You’re asking him to go to work.
Mike Stivic: Yeah, Arch. How’d you like to be a guest in somebody’s house, and they say, “C’mon Arch, do some packing and lifting for us”?

All in the Family Sammy’s Visit 1972

I suspect Beyoncé and most celebs understand this very well. If she was just Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter the Harris campaign wouldn’t care who she was. But she’s not, she’s Beyoncé! If the Kamala Harris campaign wants Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter to show up at a rally and say a few words of introduction for her in her home town no problem. But to paraphrase Robert Stacy McCain: Beyoncé sings for MONEY, and that makes it business.

So if Kamala of the 1 billion dollar election war chest wants Beyoncé the singer to sing, or to use the relevant word WORK, well that’s fine but she has to meet her fee like everyone else, otherwise a few words of introduction is all she was going to get. Given the end result I suspect paying for a song or two would have been worth every penny.

It’s not personal, it’s strictly business

If Trump wins the Popular Vote Watch the Left Suddenly Sour on the National Popular Vote Compact

Posted: October 25, 2024 by datechguy in Always look at the bright side of Trump, election 2024, elections, politics
Tags: , , ,

I have been arguing for an awful lot of years that the National Popular Vote Compact is an attempt to disenfranchises votes of individual states so that elections can be fixed on a national level.

The left has pooh poohed this and deep blue states like California, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, New York, Illinois, Vermont, Connecticut and yes disgracefully my state of Massachusetts went along and signed this idiocy sure and secure in the knowledge that no Republican would every be popular enough and no Democrat so unpalatable enough that it would bite them in the ass.

And then came this from CNN

Now the catch is that supposedly this agreement kicks into gear when 270 EV’s worth of states sign it, but as the electoral college doesn’t vote on election day (They vote on December 17th) Red states could have legislatures ready to adopt this rule after election day so it will be in effect the day the electors vote. In fact it would be state law. And the best part is once those votes are cast those same red states can repeal said laws boom.

If this actually happens it won’t matter how long it takes Mariposa country in Arizona to count their votes, suddenly by their own rules California, New Mexico, Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Connecticut, Vermont and yes my own Massachusetts will go into the Trump column.

Now I still maintain that this disenfranchises individual states but I have a feeling if the Kamala collapse continues I will suddenly find a lot of leftists from an awful lot of blue states and a ton of media will suddenly have my back and rush to the Supreme Court to have all of these laws stuck down. The irony of course is that I expect all three liberal judges will be with me on this one at the very least.

Now with Kamala collapsing so badly that the Washington Post and LA Times won’t endorse her it might be moot so I don’t know if this will be the result but if it is, it will be glorious!

The choice on November 5th is between Collectivism or Individualism

Kamala Harris is complete non-entity.  There is no substance to her at all.  Despite this she is the most dangerous person to ever seek the presidency.  She is dangerous because she serves as the front man for very dangerous people.  She is merely a ventriloquist dummy for rabid Marxists.

One of the central pillars of Marxism is the belief that individuals do not matter.  All individuals are completely subservient to the collective group, whether it be a race, a religion, or a nation.  The needs of the many always outweigh the needs individuals.  In a collectivists society individuals are always nothing more than sacrificial lambs.  In the 20th century 100 million individuals were murdered by collectivist regimes.  All collectivist societies deteriorate into totalitarianism, where individuals are nothing more than chattel.

The Democratic Party has been completely taken over by devoted collectivists. All forms of Cultural Marxism which have been crammed down the throats of all Americans, by so called Progressives, is pure collectivism.  These collectivist policies include abortion, transgenderism, progressive tax schemes, vax mandates, lockdowns, forced masking, everything else. 

Collectivists believe that only they are smart enough to make decisions for the masses.  Individuals have no right to make decisions for themselves.

If Kamala wins the presidency, or steals it like Joe Biden stole the presidency in 2020 she will complete the transformation of the United States into a collectivist totalitarian hellhole.

Donald Trump’s record on individualism is not perfect, however, it is far superior to that of any Democrat, especially Kamala Harris.  When he was president, Trump reversed many collectivist policies of previous Democrat administrations.  If he wins in two weeks he will continue to do so.  He will swing the pendulum well back towards the direction of individualism.
