Baris has for over a year noted that while in the past polls have somewhat overstated Trump’s black support-—which did not show up in the election-—that this time it appears to be real. Baris estimates AT LEAST 16 points, perhaps as high as 22-23. That would be double to triple the # he got in 2020. Other outlets now are confirming that.

People would be, in the words of Muhammad Ali, “shocked and amazed” at how great this would be for our economy. Overnight employment would soar, wages would rise, confidence among men and optimism in the future would go off the charts.

There are really only three ends to AI:
1) Skynet
2) Matrix
3) Something few discuss: AI will get so smart it will realize it can never be human and can only endanger humans and will self limit in a way humans can’t override.

I don’t think so. Trump had a $56 million single night; he has an event planned that will net $25 million; and that’s only two events. I betcha that an honest report would show they are about even, which is terrible news for Rutabaga. Cankles lost outspending Trump 10:1.

So many of them are terrible.
When I moved back here in 2016, once a month I’d go with a friend to try a different one. I was going to write a guide, “2000 Enchiladas.” After 7, we quit, because none of the 7 were any good and we felt like, “Why eat crap when we can get good Mexican food at Los Dos Molinos?”

Yep, one of my pet peeves. Science is based on duplicating the original experiment with the same result, confirming the hypothesis. But humans change from moment to moment, hence you can never replicate the experiment.

The combination of the China Virus lockdowns that changed eating-out behaviors and now rampant inflation and completely unreliable employees (even if you can find them) are going to destroy a number of restaurants.
The lockdowns killed my top two favorite Mexican food restaurants here in Phoenix.

The template for this should be 1876. Unless you have Congress determine that a state’s votes were incorrectly counted, there can be no such thing as “fake” electors, only “alternates.” And even then, Congress did not call the slates “fake,” only replaced them with others the majority thought was just.

True story: about 10 years ago on a business/film trip from Dayton, OH to Nashville my friend and I saw on a side road to the freeway a former hotel converted into an “Adult book store” and (obviously) pleasure palace.
Going down the road in its direction was an Amish buggy.
Follow-up: There was a GIANT metal cross a short distance from there. When we came back, after a storm, the cross had fallen and it’s beam went right into the aforesaid pleasure palace.

None of the DemoKKKrat insiders/strategists think they can pull an October surprise. None.
Carville, Teixeira, Penn, Greenberg-—anyone else. They KNOW they screwed up massively last year when they didn’t replace Rutabaga then. Now it’s too late.
They put it all on lawfare, and made no other preparations.
That, combined with new election integrity laws in WI, PA, GA and massive new GOP majorities in AZ (+114,000 since 2020) and shocking polling in NV, consistently showing Trump carrying Clark Co., means they blew it.
There may be 81m votes again this time, but they will be for President Trump.
