I certainly would not if I was them. That would not be bright on their part. Actions speak louder than words.

Actions do speak louder. The admitting thing, I was being a bit circumspect. Let me put it this way.

There are people I disagree with, they want to censor what I can say online, they want mandate behavior by me by threat of force, they think the state should have say over parents in raising children, they want to disarm me, and they have a troubling knack of not being able to debate politics without getting violent.

And they call me a fascist because I think America should put Americans first.

Much like racism cries, from people who tell me I'm evil because I'm white, the fascist cries are really losing their impact, imo.

I think it says everything when your party sweeps into power and it wipes out the stock market. The worst losses in stock market history. Worse than the Covid 19 crash. I wonder if all of the fools who voted for these commies or just did not vote are happy with their 401K this afternoon.
Probably quite a few are parasites who have no savings…

A great buying opportunity.

The S&P 500’s fall was the 43rd worst since 1967.

The Dow is still up over 7% for the year.

Across 22 earlier S&P 500 episodes of 4% drops, 12 ended higher after 21 trading days and 20 after 63 trading days.

What were Republican voters thinking when they had alternatives like Chris Christie, Asa Hutchinson, Nikki Haley, all good former Governors in their states? I will never understand what Republican voters were thinking in 2023-24.


I will say this; I never thought I'd live to see a Black elected Senator in Mississippi. I'm old enough to remember a former Mississippi Governor, Ross Barnett.

I will add that I believe Annie Andrews will do a great job as Senator.

I heard Asa Hutchinson on the radio yesterday. What a classy guy. That guy could sell fire to a snowman. So well spoken and measured in his comments, but you know where he stands, but he speaks in such a manner that even if you don't agree with him on everything, you still want him to do well and you just know he really cares about America and all Americans no matter who they are.

I reqd a piece after Trump's election that predicted something like you said.

People freaked when the D's were in the white house and inflation went through the roof. A lot of voters jumped right. But the thought was that prices would come back down, NOT just inflation coming under control.

(For those that dont know, inflation is a measurement of the increase of price over a time, not a measurement of the price.)

So when the prices stay high, a lot of those same people jumped back to the left, based on affordability promises.

Imo, we have an issue though, where prices aren't coming back down. So where do we jump next? Probably something even more radical, just to try something different. And thats when big mistakes can be made.

When covid hit, the supply chain broke in 2020. Consequently, inflation escalated in 2021 and 2022. Inflation slowed in 2023, 2024 and 2025. It began to reemerge in March of this year.

If people want prices to actually decrease, not just in momentum, but actually go lower, do they really want a depression?

 

[gamecock stock]

It appears so. I took a look at the numbers in Greenville and Anderson counties, since I consider those my "home" counties when I lived in SC. In 2024, Trump won Greenville Co. 158,541 to 100,074. In 2026, Graham lost it 102,314 to 107,111. The 3rd party vote in Greenville went from about 1% to about 2.5%. I don't think the story in Greenville is that there has been a massive demographic change in 2 years (After all, Wilson won the county by about 9 points), but that a lot of voters from 2024 sat this one out or cast a protest vote about the Senate candidate. The voters opposing the president's party were much more motivated this time than the voters supporting it.

Anderson saw a similar drop in R numbers. In 2024, Trump won it 71,828 to 25,281. In 2026, Graham won it 44,590 to 27,303. Again, a moderate boost in the Dem vote vs a large drop off in Rep support. It looks like one side was a lot more motivated than the other.

I always pay more attention to which party is more "enthusiastic".

I think there is a large segment of the population that actually thinks if inflation goes down, then prices go down.

One thing I think some are missing is that, in the last few days, I've heard and read a lot of Trump 2024 voters who said they viewed his administration as acting corrupt. Those are people, seemingly, that aren't MAGA but were generally supportive of Trump who have quickly changed their mind after watching the last few years. They have grown sick of him and his narcissist personality. I think it's fair to say a little of Trump is an awful lot.

I heard a Trump friendly talk show host on the radio Wednesday list about 4-5 things Trump had "done wrong and screwed up." The funny thing is, and I did laugh about it, is that on Monday and Tuesday, a few callers had mentioned some of those same things and the talk show host attacked them for it. You realize these talk show hosts really become part of a politician's campaign team - not being able to admit anything is wrong- then when reality hits- they suddenly "see the light" and admit what all went wrong.

I know a couple of people like this, including my own dad who I know voted for Trump in 2024 but has increasingly told me, without prompting that he's sick of him and he has mentioned the corrupt word several times and he thinks some of his cabinet picks are terrible. I don't think he's voting for a Democrat, but he's also not voting for anyone Trump endorses.

He's definitely enriching himself via the markets and possibily complicit in manipulation as well. I think he got in office and was threatened to do what he was told. He had plenty of money and his ego clearly wanted to be the best President ever. The about-face didn't make sense. They almost got him twice before the election, and I'm sure they threatened every family member down the line once he was in. Also, the timing of Charlie Kirk was almost the exact moment when he started shifting course. That was a message.

WIth all of that said, they was nothing more corrupt than the fake Biden Admin who was stealing directly from the taxpayers in an incredible way while also jamming people into our country for money and votes.

The entire system is shot though.

[atl-cock]

MAGA is the right-wing equivalent of the DSA. I'm a free market capitalist . I cannot stand the DSAers. There are too many extremists in BOTH parties. Some of the MAGA-types, NOT ALL, but some of them would love to have fascism and, frankly, are racist. If, by chance the DSAers got control of the Democratic party and the extremists of the MAGA faction got control of the GOP, that would be awful. We would then badly need a VIABLE centrist 3rd party. But I'll give "credit" to both parties. I suspect they work together very well to make it nearly impossible for a VIABLE 3rd party to come into existence.

There are too many common sense people in both parties to let the extremists take over, in my view. Once Trump leaves the scene, I believe Trumpism will die. Even Trump says MAGA. will die once he steps off the stage. Vance, if he can shake off the stench of Trumpism could emerge. Rubio, DeSantis, Cruz, Huckabee Sanders, Haley, they all could emerge. I'm thinking that Vance is going to have a hard time separating his time with Trump. So one of the others will come out on top. If Vance comes out on top, you are handing the keys to the White House to the Democrats. On the Democratic side, it will not be a DSA-type., not if the Democrats want to win the White House. I see Beshear, Shapiro, Emanual, Ossoff, or Landreu emerging, all moderate left.

One of the things I forgot to mention that hurt the GOP in the midterms was Trump's grift (which may explain why the public polls has him underwater on crime) The Trump family is making Hunter Biden look like a pauper. One of the Trump children (I think it was Don Jr) reportedly said that they want to be the richest family in the world by the time Don Srs term ends. I'm sure that Putin is saying "hold my beer". The defense related contracts that both Don Jr and Eric's financial interests got is , well, very suspicious. Trump Sr. making $2.2 BILLION in his first year back, I don't think sits well with the public. One of my jobs in my career was regulating the selling of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc in the state. Trump's stock investing , to me, sure does smell like insider trading. Him wanting to charge $100,000 to give Wall Streeters inside peek into his Truth Social posts before the general public sees them, that would be jail time for anyone else. Stock trading by elected officials needs to be banned. BOTH parties are at fault (yes, I'm talking to you too Nancy). It's outrageous.

One of the best posts I've read on any site regarding today's political climate. Bravo.

I'd only like to emphasize that being anti-Trump / anti-MAGA does not necessarily make one a Democrat. And being anti-DSA does not necessarily make one a Republican. Lots of gray area. Nuances matter.

I think Trump is a fundamentally unethical person. I think he operates this way all the time. I think he lies all the time and operates under the principle that he can say whatever he wants if he believes it generates an outcome he wants.

I think Trump was trained by a man who twisted the idea of ethics around and Trump honestly believes if it benefits him, it can't be unethical. This is what his niece has said about him too. I am convinced, and have been for years, he operates that way in all aspects of his life, not just politics. It's one reason why many people that have known him and have worked for him and have said he really doesn't have any close personal friends. You have to be able to trust someone a lot to be a close friend. Trump has people that know him, and work for him- at least until things get haywire. I think the people that have been closest to Trump are close to him for the transactional nature of having a relationship with him. There is no real trust there.


I think Joe Biden was a fundamentally decent person when it comes to his personal conduct. But he was a liar who lied to himself and others. I disagree that he was jamming people into the country for money and votes. I don't think that makes sense and is way too complicated for Biden. I think it was much more basic. I think he was too chicken to clamp down on the border because he didn't want people to think he was like Donald Trump in his administration and he was too cowardly to do anything about it.

It's one reason I didn't vote for him.

My biggest criticism of immigration issues is Miller's deportation quota and the lack of due proper due process offered to those arrested.

Absolutely we should have secure borders (don't need people sneaking into Montana from Saskatchewan ). All borders.

If someone comes in as a refugee and they are given temporary residency status, but the status expires before their case is resolved, that strikes me as a serious administrative bureaucratic problem. Why is it taking so long to resolve a case?

People who were allowed in under a previous immigration policy should not be summarily deported simply because of a change in policy, especially if they have a pending case. To be clear, I'm not objecting to a change in policy; my objection is applying it retroactively.

It flies against all of the people who have worked for him over the years though. Even many of the Democrats who hate him now liked him before he decided to run. Bill Maher talks about this all of the time.

It's clear Biden wasn't running the country though. He was a clueless prop along for the ride. Harris was set to be the same.

What is more dangerous: the enemy that reveals itself or the enemy that does not?

Your quote here is not about Muslims or the Muslim culture, but is is very applicable. Maybe I’m biased because I have been exposed to the Muslim culture, including Iranians; if you seriously compare Greek culture or ancestry (my wife is Greek coincidentally) to the Muslim culture, respectfully you must not have been around them too much. I’m not going to comment any further to avoid offending anyone, but the statement I quoted is a very real concern.

I was raised on Air Force bases. My parents would have friends (also military) over once a week or so to play pinochle when I was a lad. I vividly remember them discussing a common belief that the next world war would originate from the Middle East; this was early sixties before Kennedy was assasinated.

I think the nonchalance in which ‘America’ is regarding the Muslim growth is very dangerous.

Trump just announced Miller is taking over as Chief of Staff. Very likely the best gift Trump could have given Democrats. His over-reach is a habit on almost any issue. He's the easily the most hated person in the administration- and that's with Republicans, particularly Senate Republicans.

I also saw where Miller's wife said she didn't vote in the midterms.

I don't see that is flies against it at all. Numerous people that worked for him in the first administration have nothing to do with him. Those that do, are on his payroll, often his personal payroll with one of his businesses. I worked for almost 3 years for a guy I could not stand. When I was working for him and near him, I had a smile on my face and played the good employee act.

Americans that invested in Trump's meme coin have lost some $3 billion dollars. If that had been a Biden or Obama effort, the very same MAGA people would be blasting the hell out of him and wanting them tried for treason today. But with Trump, it's near silence from the very same people. But it was an issue with voters, and one of the "corrupt" issues hanging over Trump's head.

Biden was barely there most of the time- and totally gone often. I see no reason to keep bringing him up or comparing Trump to him. He's not President now. He's not in power. He has no authority now. I didn't vote for him or Harris.

No, no no, I was just using Greek as an example and also to tell something about myself simultaneously. Your wife is Greek, huh. I like you even more. I have not been around Muslims, that I can recall. You have been around them and know more about them than I do.

Your last sentence could be true. I don't know. How many Muslims are in America? In the millions, probably. For how long have there been over 1 million in America? Probably for decades. We could deport them all. You and I know that won't happen. So, what's the answer? I don't know what the answer is.

It's not a pissing contest. It was a question.

I'm neither. I just happen to have a few Muslim friends and have had them since the 1990s. I've also worked with several and them being Muslim was a total non issue.

My advantage is I actually know them. I also very appreciative that they treat me as an individual than as a member of a group given some of the things that they have experienced.

Is Doctor Oz, a Muslim in Trump's administration, a threat to America because he's Muslim? Maybe you feel he is but I don't know because you didn't answer and really no Trump supporters who seem to have a real problem with Muslims seem to have any issue with him being Muslim.

Do you believe the same about Christians? Jews? Hindus?

You have a close personal connection that just happens to give this crucial insight that isn't available to anyone else.

Just like the thread about gay marriage, trans athletes in highschool, the board of trustees and their thoughts on the AD, some random suburb of Chicago and the real feelings of some minor college rivalry in Kansas.

Idiots against things like data centers that are partly responsible for the economic boom in our country. They create so many jobs, can lower costs for people if they negotiate terms with the builders, etc. Some are giving local residents generous bonuses. Most now have recycling water. When Bernie Sanders, Warren, etc. oppose something you know you should support it. They used to shout similar hysteria about nuclear energy which is very clean. Would I want one next door to my house? Probably not. But instead of stopping progress and letting China win the AI race, just negotiate the terms when they are proposed for the good of all. We will go into a recession if they hurt the economy, which is actually booming overall. Fears are decimating the stock market with no end in sight. Socialism/communism on the horizon if enough of the radicals get elected. And congrats S.C. you now have a transplant Senator who is a Pediatrician yet thinks its ok to poison minors with puberty blockers. She shouldn`t even be allowed to have a medical license. They asked 1000 times what qualified Darline to be a Senator, yet I don`t remember anyone ever asking the same thing about "Dr." Andrews. I wonder how much she made off of the insurance companies who have been "ripping us off." No wonder she doesn`t "owe anybody anything."

Yep - the same people that hate data centers complain when their internet speed or smart phone does not load quickly not knowing that these data centers support all of these electrons. But it is more of the same - NIMBY - not in my backyard, but then they complain - one of the many reasons and over regulation why power is limited - NIMBY. But at the same time, GOP politicians just like their counterparts are not very bright - I currently live in Alaska and we have something called ranked voting - invented by Democrats to get Democrats elected. But then the Republicans put too many candidates on the ballot to compete again the one Dem candidate - and then when it gets down to ranked choice, the GOP voters actually will list the one Dem candidate. Also, in some cases, the libertarians take 2 to 3% which would have probably gone to the GOP nominee - but those voters help to push the Dem to the election win. And if we pull out of Iran, does any one actually believe that Iran will stop playing games in the Strait of Hormuz. When Iran gets a nuke, they will turn Israel (and the US if they can sneak a bomb into the USA) into glass - and I wonder at that point, what will happen to the market. And then Iran will take the ballistic missiles and add nukes to the warheads and Europe is next.

Yep - the same people that hate data centers complain when their internet speed or smart phone does not load quickly not knowing that these data centers support all of these electrons. But it is more of the same - NIMBY - not in my backyard, but then they complain -

The reaction was easily predictable.

I heard a data center lobbyist today on Fox News radio say that there were some bad actors in the data center world, like in any other industry, and that some of them were taking advantage and had taken advantage of some communities.

Many of us have seen the videos posted online of the data centers that have been built near people's homes, and the videos of the buzzing sound in the middle of the night- when they were promised it wouldn't cause any issues - and their water bills to skyrocket because these folks came in and wined and dined the local politicians and got what they wanted.

The pushback on anything like that is going to be fierce, especially when regular people find out that the folks pushing these things are the richest people on the planet who buy politicians as easy as someone can buy a shake at Sonic.

I think most of these people understand that data centers are important. What they don't want is them being built next to their homes in rural areas or in neighborhoods far from the politician's homes, and then it increasing their utility bills.

That's why over the last 3-5 months, you've seen so many Republican politicians- who were speeding full speed ahead- suddenly stop in their tracks and you saw even Greg Abbott in Texas put a pause on data centers. He went from "let's put them everywhere" to "let's stop and think about this" in about 2 weeks. He realized it was a political loser- he just realized it too late. He was parroting Trump on the issue, until he had stepped in it too deep and realized he was in a mess and then he reversed course and he knew he had misread the political climate on the deal.

No- not all of them do that. Many don't. But plenty of them have done it- enough to cause real anger and concern, couple that with politicians not being honest about them, and the realization that they have dumped large amounts of money into the coffers of politicians- then you have the reaction that many of these places received.


Smart growth is better than no growth. But it has to be smart, but the big spenders and industry has to approach the issue differently than the "let's run over them and they won't realize what happened until it's too late" approach that they were taking. That's not going to fly anymore.

Again, easily predictable.

I worked- decades ago- with a Muslim man at BCBS. Great guy. We ate lunch together a few days each week for almost 2 years. Met his entire family multiple times.

At another employer, I worked with a very nice 20 something lady. She was actually of Lebanese heritage. She was a Christian. She explained to me once when we were driving to a job together that many Lebanese Christians, especially younger ones, are close to younger Lebanese Muslims being there are many of both living in Lebanon. She said many of her friends in America were Muslims from Lebanon (she lived in Atlanta at the time).
