Comment:
It should be noted that Ken Paxton was not endorsed in the Texas Primary run-off until right at the end of the campaign. If Cornyn would've won, Trump would've endorsed him, I'm sure.
Trump didn't pick fights that often, and when he did, I think it was justified.
Paxton didn't work out because of a couple factors in my opinion. The Bush wing of the Texas GOP hates Trump, no doubt. The second factor is something that took me by surprise. The Hispanic vote turned on him. Something else I read, not referenced here, said that the commies energized the female Latina vote. If so, that one caught me by surprise. I wasn't expecting that.
I favored Trump's reindustrialization policy. Unfortunately, that is now at risk. The Texas GOP put a commie in the Speaker's chair, too. So there's a very deep rift in the GOP right there. It might be called the RINO revenge factor. The previous Speaker was challenged by the MAGA movement, and taken out of the Speaker's chair.
How many folks are aware that a Republican legislature put a commie in the Speaker's chair? Do you think that the GOP could have done even worse by joining with the commies at the ballot box? It is not an idle charge. It is a reasonable suspicion.
The article didn't mention that. So I did so that anyone reading this will know that fact. That is, if facts matter anymore in this country.

Just the News: Trump endorsement record tarnished
Just the News: This was because of the economy?
Really? The people who say this, I have a question: Do you really think the Democrats are going to do anything to fix the economy in these next 2 years? What do you think the commies will do to "fix" the economy?
There is going to be a switcheroo. The commies ran on the economy, but will do nothing to fix it.
Quote:
But what will the commies do? Quote:
How do you promote capitalism by putting commies in the seat of power? This makes no sense.
The commies will punish MAGA and Trump---a swicheroo. Also, it is possible that the RINOS joined the commies, and MAGA punished the RINOS.
It was a split GOP that did this. The so-called Establishment on the left stayed together while the GOP split apart at the seams. The article also said this was like 1994 in reverse. No. This was Barry Goldwater versus LBJ. The next two years gave us the Vietnam War and open borders. The GOP shot itself in the foot in 1964, and it looks like it did it again. That's the prelim. This needs more analysis.

Quote:
Exit polls showed voters were fed up with high gas prices and inflation overall, and angry that Trump put America into a prolonged conflict with Iran before fixing the inflation he inherited from Joe Biden’s administration.
But what will the commies do? Quote:
Fifty-seven percent of voters favored capitalism compared to just 33% who said they held a favorable view of socialism.

How disappointing
Yours truly had hoped to take a mini-break from all the political posting of late. However, the news came to me that things were not going well, and here I am.
What can you say when you gave it your best only to have it not work out?
This had to come down decisively one way or the other. It looks to me like it came down the wrong way. I may be wrong, but a lot of really bad stuff could start happening because of this.
You can blame a lot of folks here, but what good what that do?
The big questions are what to do next. Not too sure about that one. This further complicates an already complicated situation.

Everything is a hustle, everything is a game.
11/3/26: Election Day 2026:
That last post where Jay Cost examines the polls in the battleground states shows the status of the election game.
Obama is pouring in a lot of money into these states so that he can claim to be ahead where it really matters, in the electoral college. But he is falling behind in the national polls. But Obama is right, the national vote isn't what decides the election. That reminder occurred in 2000, as you may recall.
The point is that it is a game, and the one who wins will be doing what it takes to win. Is Romney paying attention to what he needs to be paying attention to? Or is the national polling making him overconfident?
Most people are focusing in on the economy and jobs. Obama claims jobs were created this past month and his economic policies are working. Is there enough of a rebuttal out there to show that Obama is wrong? I've seen some who are saying that this is just statistical noise. So, I'll have a look at the numbers myself.
Here's the Household Report for June:
Obama is claiming progress off the establishment survey, which is seasonally adjusted. Statistical noise. Obama is trying to win with statistical noise and putting his money in the battleground states. Plus he's getting a lot of help from the media. The bottom line is that it is a hustle. The people are being conned.
You may argue that Romney does it too. Everybody does it. But that is not the point here. The point is that it is a game, and that you are required to play the game. So, is Romney playing a winning game?
It doesn't matter who "should" win the game. It matters more if you actually win the game. Take the OJ Simpson case. If justice prevailed, he would have been convicted. In his book, Outrage, Vincent Bugliosi said it was a game, and the prosecution lost that game. They lost it even when the overwhelming evidence pointed to Simpson's guilt. So, the objective facts won't matter in "the game". You have to win it, or justice won't prevail.
This game shouldn't even be a game, just like the Simpson case. Romney shouldn't even have a contest here based upon performance. But Obama is still in the game. Why? It must be because Romney isn't playing the game as well as he should. Is Romney serious about winning this game? Bugliosi didn't think the prosecutors were serious. Maybe Romney isn't either.
This isn't the first time I've seen that sentence (in the title). Check out the autobiography of Malcom X. It's in there. Life is a hustle, it said. If you learn that, you'll have a chance. Actually, the previous sentence isn't exactly what's in the book, but the part about everything being a hustle definitely is in there.
With respect to George W. Bush, I think I understand what he is doing. There's good news and bad news about that. You might guess what the bad news is. You might also have to guess what the good news is.
Maybe I should leave that as an exercise, grasshoppers.

What critical thinking looks like
Here's a post which states the issues, lays them out there, and all you have to do is read it and see that it is true.
How is that critical thinking?
Because you can take it apart bit by bit if you choose. Just like this blog. After all these years, and posts, nobody will step on the field and address the issues.
Ace does it, but does anybody listen? Well, it seems like that is the case, but maybe it isn't. If war is all about deception, then truth is not welcome.
Ok, can you win with truth? Not in war. This isn't a debating society. However, yours truly isn't a politician, and thank God for that.
In the USA, the people have the chance to choose their own future. But there's no guarantee that the people will make the right choice.
So you lay out the TRUTH, and hopefully that still place deep inside, there will be an answer. At least, one can hope. We are close to the end of this election cycle, and there's not much more to say.
But the truth is mightier than a million lies. Just my opinion, ya'll.

Bongino on election eve, ep. 2629
Bongino makes his closing argument. He asks if you want more of the achievements he listed, or back to the open borders, defunding the police, men in women's sports, men in women's bathrooms, etc. etc.
And those who claimed Trump is a cult figure want to vote on personalities. Physician, heal thyself!
It's not about affordability for the commies. It's about a color revolution.
Susan Kokinda of Promethean Action makes her closing argument.
She makes the case quote eloquently. Is anybody out there listening?
We're getting close to the point where the arguments end. Stuff will begin happening. Let's hope it's the right stuff, as opposed to the wrong stuff. CTH has more.
