Finally, the inescapable conclusion from Tuesday is that the Democrats are talking past the American people. Voters care about inflation, about taxes, about energy prices, about COVID-19, about crises in the supply chain, in semiconductors, and on the southern border. Despite the endless noise from Congress and President Biden, no voters expect reconciliation or anything being talked about in Washington to solve any of those problems.
I think this comes pretty damned close to hitting the nail on the head here. The problem wasn't that the Democratic agenda didn't pass, the problem was that people really didn't care if that agenda passes or not. The agenda doesn't work to address the concerns Americans have, and in many ways it doubles down on making them worse.
When you flat out ask Americans why they see the country going in the wrong direction, they do not cite a lack of free preschool, the lack of hundreds of billions going into green energy, the lack of affordable electric cars, or even the reasonably popular measures in the bipartisan infrastructure bill.
They certainly are not calling for American tax dollars to go to legal representation for the illegals who have broken laws crossing the border. They know that taxing corporations and businesses will only add to the already out of control price of goods, and they understand that when you attempt to flood the economy with new money that it will substantially add to the already out of control problems we have with inflation.
They are screaming at the top of their lungs about inflation, about empty grocery shelves and lack of products, about crime, about a lack of control of the southern border, and about the fact that we are now on week hundred of the four weeks to flatten the Covid curve. People want to be able to go to the store without a mask, without a vaccine passport and not see empty shelves where their needed product is supposed to be. People want to go to the gas station, without a mask, without a vaccine passport, and not pay $4.00 plus for gas. They want to be able to do all of that knowing there is a police force supported enough to keep them safe.
Democrats just don't get that. Instead they attempt to tell people why their concerns are wrong and how what they want to do for them is so much better for them. Think in terms of how women will label something as "manplaining" and then understand that what Democrats are attempting to is it akin to "libspaning". As in treating Americans as if they are too stupid to understand what they actually want or need.
Oh and by the way... if you disagree with them, Democrats will call you a racist or bigot. Because that will provide you with incentive to vote for them.

What's happening in DC these days has absolutely nothing to do with helping Americans and everything to do with securing a Sloppy Joe legacy as the next FDR by blowing TRILLION$.
This is so very sad.

What a failed life Roger has.
Still has not shown where in the US Constitution it is.

You actually believe that the militarily forces are destroying democracy.
But throughout history they have remained neutral because it is in the Constitution"
Roger epic lie, fail.

‘Barely concealed bloodlust’: Claremont Institute laid out detailed plan for using cops to overturn Trump’s election loss
Travis Gettys
November 08, 2021
The right-wing Claremont Institute published a report in mid-October 2020 that gamed out a scenario where Donald Trump would remain in office through an alliance between law enforcement and militant extremists.
The report was prepared by attorney John Eastman, who authored a memo laying out another strategy for keeping Trump in office, and former Trump deputy national security advisor K.T. McFarland, as well as Kevin Roberts, then-executive director of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, alt-right figure Jeff Giesea and right-wing blogger Charles Haywood, reported The Bulwark.
"Despite the authors' pretensions to scholarship and rigor — 'for a simulation to be valuable, the other side gets a vote and actions must be based in realism' — the final document is a frenzied and paranoid piece of work, revealing of the anxieties and aspirations of the authoritarian right," writes columnist Christian Vanderbrouk. "Practically, the report is an instruction manual for how Trump partisans at all levels of government — aided by citizen 'posses' of Proud Boys and Oath Keepers — could, quite literally, round up opposition activists, kill their leaders, and install Donald Trump for a second term in office."
Most of the predictions in the report, titled "79 Days to Inauguration," did not come to fruition, such as the authors' belief that some states' voting results would be fatally tainted by cyber attacks and suspicious fires, and left-wing mobs did not converge on Washington, D.C., to incite violence, and police did not execute antifa/Black Lives Matter leaders as part of a federal operation.
"A barely concealed bloodlust runs through the report," Vanderbrouk writes. "This isn't a serious wargame or a policy study so much as a bowdlerized retelling of The Turner Diaries."
The report was produced in response to the bipartisan Transition Integrity Project's (TIP) exercise on "Preventing a Disrupted Presidential Election and Transition," which considered the prospect of Trump refusing to concede an election loss and made recommendations for avoiding a crisis -- which seems to be the opposite intent of the Claremont Institute's exercise.
"To the extent that the Claremont-TPPF report offers recommendations, they are mostly focused on how to emerge victorious from the chaos, including preparation 'for destructive urban unrest [with] potential targets includ[ing] ballot counting facilities, government buildings, especially state capitols and city halls, as well as television and radio studios,'" Vanderbrouk writes. "The Claremont task force seems either resigned to—or perhaps energized by—the view that 'prudent steps are likely to be spun as preparations for a military takeover or coup and may result in negative consequences either way.'"
The BBB bill will pass before Christmas day.
You won't read it.

Even very conservative people believe that he will try and to overturn the Constitution of the United States of America the longest current government in modern history.
You don't have my age right
Of course nobody will read it Roger.
Because none of us have any interest at all in the 2020 election and nobody here has any interest in trying to get it overturned and nobody other than you, Denny, and the Reverend suffer from Trump derangement syndrome.
Most of us are still focussed on what happened last week and what is going to happen a year from now. I understand why you might want to avoid those subjects!
If Democrats call you a racist or bigot they will never vote for Democrats.
The President is going travel across lines and sell his positive plans for every single person.
That's why they will not call anyone like you a bigot or a racist rodent bastard.
Selling a positive message is not easy but you remember when he was hiding in his bedroom and Trump was calling people names.
He got 81 million votes
That is where you make your stand at your age.
In debate , you agreed with every other point.
What a dumbass thing to do, you lost again.
This you agreed with....
financial broke he has to have a roommate .
What a failed life Roger has.
Trump is still in charge of the Republican party now and again because you are afraid of being wrong about anything.
I won't read the "Raw Story" interpretation of the Claremont study alky because I don't need that Gettys twatwaffle to interpret it for me.
Plus, as CH said, 2020 is over. What happened a week ago is a big deal right now. Not some liberal masturbatory fantasy.
btw Roger....
Did you actually read your own story?
Because I am pretty sure it not a story laying out any sort of new plan to overthrow the 2020 election or that it shows that Donald Trump "will try" to overthrow anything. Pretty sure that story (which I heard someone else debunking) was about some obscure plan that was written prior to the 2020 election.
But why would you actually read your own story?
Blogger Roger Amick said...

FACT CHECK: FALSE.
The GOP is the party of Cheney, Kinzinger and Pierre Defecto, alky.
Trump supporters have LEFT the GOP, imbecile. That's why the NYS GOP STILL calls my house at least twice/week.
I can only conclude that they get off on me telling them to go fuck themselves.
That is where you make your stand at your age.

Roger never debates, because when he does he loses in spectacular fashion.
Go get in line to buy your juice box.
But why would you actually read your own story?
Because he's waiting for Dick Wolf to make an episode of Law & Order - Special Alky Nursing Home Unit.
Where alky and his roommate overthrow the nursing home in an "INSURRECTION!!!11!".
The alky and his 137 IQ (LOL) are so on fucking top of things he thinks that blacks - NEGROES, as he calls them on his twitter feed - need health insurance to get a FREE Covid vaccine.
So either Roger is lying through is teeth or his story is lying through it's teeth. Either way, the entire thing is a lie.
Not only did Roger not read his own story, but I can guarantee you he didn't read the actual report that "Raw Story" was lying about

The bullet points:
THE WINNER WILL NOT BE KNOWN ON ELECTION NIGHT DUE TO MILLIONS OF UNCOUNTED MAIL-IN BALLOTS IN 5 BATTLEGROUND STATES
• THE POST-ELECTION PERIOD WILL LIKELY SEE A TRUMP LEAD STEADILY ERODED BY MAIL-IN BALLOT COUNTING
• LAWSUITS WILL BE FILED IN MANY STATES, WITH REPUBLICANS SEEKING TO UPHOLD STATE LAW AND DEMOCRATS SEEKING RELIEF FROM STATE LAW
• THE U.S. CONSTITUTION IS REMARKABLY RESILIENT IN CHALLENGING TIMES AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOULD GIVE IT TIME TO WORK
• SHOULD THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE NOT PRODUCE A WINNER, THERE ARE TWO ISSUES OF CONCERN: THE ABILITY OF THE HOUSE MAJORITY TO DENY THE SEATING OF NEWLY ELECTED MEMBERS AND HOW LONG THE SPEAKER MIGHT SERVE AS TEMPORARY PRESIDENT UNDER THE SUCCESSION ACT
• MAJOR MEDIA AND INTERNET GIANTS WILL ACTIVELY SEEK TO SHAPE THE POST-ELECTION NARRATIVE, SUPPRESSING INFORMATION OF WHICH THEY DON’T APPROVE
• THERE IS AN INCREASED CHANCE OF URBAN UNREST, ESPECIALLY IN JURISDICTIONS WHERE LOCAL AND STATE OFFICIALS ARE RELUCTANT TO MAINTAIN ORDER
• CHINA AND RUSSIA MAY TRY TO INCITE VIOLENCE
• THERE IS A GREATER LIKELIHOOD OF OVERSEAS CONFLICT INITIATED BY POWERS THAT MISUNDERSTAND THAT AMERICA HAS ONE PRESIDENT AT A TIME
The reference to the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys are hypothetical and based on this:
Law enforcement in major cities coordinate with the FBI and other federal agencies to identify leaders and agitators within the groups associated with BLM, Antifa, Boogaloo, and NFAC. Operation Spearfish commences with over one thousand arrest warrants issued using federal and state statutes from RICO to disorderly conduct with coordinated pre-dawn warrant executions nationwide. The decision to obtain arrest warrants even for the barest minimum of probable cause on the lowest of charges is meant to remove the players from the picture, at least temporarily. Social media sources and other intelligence sources were used to find any instances of incitement to violence, threats, or other criminal activity that met federal or local criminal statutes and act on them.
A lack of social media activity and overt action at the rioting by members of the Proud Boys draws the attention of law enforcement officials suspecting they may be operating covertly on the ground in several major urban rioting areas, but their exact involvement is unknown. Reports of militias moving into suburban areas is being monitored. Several groups affiliated with the Three Percenters and Oath Keepers have openly offered to assist law enforcement in putting down the violence via social media, touting significant current and retired law enforcement and military membership.
With the idea that some conservative militia type groups would offer to work with the police to bring down the social unrest and violence if there was actually a Trump victory.
Funny how Raw Story and others just can lie and Roger will just believe them... rather than look at the source?
The conclusion of the Claremont report:
Conclusions
America already has a well-established “transition integrity” procedure—the Constitution.
It is the participants’ earnest desire that this scholarship will illuminate the path for both state elected officials and local election officials as they struggle through what may likely be the most difficult period of their professional careers.
Furthermore, we hope that our work will reassure the American people that our system of government is resilient—having been crafted by the Founders to withstand crises and to emerge through the turmoil with a government of the people, by the people, for the people, that shall not
perish from the earth, but endure to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our children.
It was NOT a blueprint to overthrow the government as the left has FALSELY interpreted.
Indy was right - the alky is a FUCKING MORON.
Lorie, Joe is Alky stupid.
Joe explains the supply chain, not really.
"How do they explain the supply chain to us? Do they understand what we're talking about? They're smart people. Why is everything backed up? Well it's backed up because the people who supply the materials that end up on our kitchen table ... [have] closed those plants because they had COVID. It's a complicated world that people are facing," he said.
"You can understand why people are upset, whether you have a Ph.D. or you're working in a restaurant. It's confusing. People are understandably worried," he added
Funny how Raw Story and others just can lie and Roger will just believe them...
Funny, yet commonplace.
Every time some leftist tool tosses out a pile of red meet that's pure fucking fiction the alky can be counted on to latch onto it and plagiarize the shit out of it on here without ever reading past the headline.
The Constitution says that in case of an electoral college tie then the House shall chose between the top two vote getters with each state having one vote.
Unfortunately the Constitution is silent about which "House" shall chose. However giving the requirement of the electoral votes being counted and recorded after Jan 1, then that implies the new incoming House shall chose.
Also bad news for the Democrats. The vote is by state not individual members. Given the electoral landscape, that would advantage the Republicans.
It's the penalty for giving up on white rural voters. Instead of Democrats calling them racist rubes, showing absolute contempt for them, they should have been courting the hell out of them.
One wonders who's bright idea it was to reduce the Democrats base to the narrow Northeast corridor and the West Coast. Doesn't make electoral sense.
It was NOT a blueprint to overthrow the government as the left has FALSELY interpreted.
Rat... there is quite literally no way to interpret that document as anything other than a series of hypothetical situations revolving around a close election. Most of it dealing with how you could deal with the social unrest and possible violence from the "LEFT" if Biden had lost.
This was obviously written while we were still reeling from the 2 billion dollars of damages, 100s of injured police officers and 40 deaths that came from all of the LIBERAL violence of 2020.
_____
But in some regards, you could offer that the description is just misleading.
In the event that Biden had lost and that liberal violence in response had become so out of control as the LEFT staged a violent attempt to overthrow the election results...
That hypothetically the Claremont institution had suggested that right wing militias might have offered to come to the aid of police to hold that coup attempt off...
which could be loosely interpreted as the Oath Keepers trying to keep Trump in office... but only (based on the Claremont report) if Trump had actually won and people were trying to violently expel him from power.
But it's a given that our resident genius would fall for it.
One wonders who's bright idea it was to reduce the Democrats base to the narrow Northeast corridor and the West Coast. Doesn't make electoral sense.
It doesn't make electoral sense to rational and HONEST individuals. To the left and their commitment to winning via cheating and stealing as is their 'by any means necessary' quest for power, it need not make sense because it simply doesn't matter.
Look at NJ. Murphy needed 40K votes to remain as governor and 40K votes were "found" in Bergen County.
Same with the NJ senate president scumbag. 12K were conveniently "FOUND" and now the result is in dispute.
The underlying problem is that you won't read or listen to anything that you disagree with is a classic example of propaganda and gaslighting.
I read both sides Scott. Even Victor David Hansen who is brilliant person but he doesn't convince me because I can separate them and make up my own mind.
You believe that CRT is a communist propaganda, like the red scare of the 1950s..
But you don't understand how it works on people who watch Fox news and Newsmax can't make up their own minds..
The first thing you should do is admit making frequent mistakes, just like me when I quit drinking alcohol
You are gone forever unless you look at yourself.
This is a classic example of gaslighting comparisons between an attempt coup and demonstrations that can lead to damaging events, but they were not trying to Hang Mike Pence and get Mike Pence to violate his oath of office.
This was obviously written while we were still reeling from the 2 billion dollars of damages, 100s of injured police officers and 40 deaths that came from all of the LIBERAL violence of 2020.
I'm waisting my time, but I keep coming back to tell therealdonaldtruth.
Enjoy sucking his mushroom p***s

The story is referencing a report from the Claremont Institute.
What is in that report IS THE ONLY SIDE OF THE STORY
What Rawstory stated about the report IS NOT A SIDE OF THAT STORY IF THEY ARE LYING ABOUT IT
Simple question for you Roger.
Did you read the Claremont Institute report and make your own judgement 100% based on that report? Can you go into that PDF and find where that report is advocating using right wing groups to overthrow a Biden victory?
Of course not...
Because you cannot.
Because that report doesn't suggest anything like that.
Whatever the morons at Rawstory lied about is irrelevant to those of us who go to the source and judge for ourselves.
Something you seem incapable of doing.
