‘They said she would win — handily. They predicted a landslide.’

all they had to do to disabuse themselves of that notion was simply note the RCP election model in the last few weeks of the campaign; they would have seen Clinton projected to win 273 EV’s, down from 350 or so and dropping like the proverbial rock...another week or two and Trump would have been projected to win a narrow victory...

Even Nate Silver, in late October, showed Trump with about a 40% chance to win; way up from his midsummer projection of 11%, causing his normally fawning minions to swear and cuss at him...

The closer we get to exposing TRUTH, the more hysterical they become.

Two kinds of people hate TRUTH: the delusional and the guilty.

The magnitude of their hysteria is a measure of their resistance to TRUTH.

The magnitude of their resistance to TRUTH is a measure of their fear of TRUTH.

Theirs is a HOUSE OF CARDS (!). TRUTH will send it crashing down. They know this. They cannot let this happen!

They cannot allow their evil and mendacity to be exposed. That's why they hate TRUTH so passionately.

They will stop at NOTHING. Expect the worst.

To stop TRUTH from exposing their evil and mendacity, NOTHING will be too vicious, too violent, too ruthless! They will protect their evil, the greatest evil imaginable will be unleashed!

They are cornered rats!

Prepare for the worst!

Yes, you are correct, and it irritated the hell out of me, to the point I stopped listening for a long time.

Technically, Levin was never a Never Trumper, but he came mighty close to being one. In fact, he did more harm than good leading up to the Nov 2016 election.

Nowadays, he is one of Trump's staunchest defenders. Better late than never, I suppose.

Dennis is getting a bit carried away.

Polls show only about 1% of Americans list RussiaRussiaRussia™ as a concern.

Most of them live in Prager’s neck of the woods.

I don't see it (the hysteria).

Probably because I cut my cable and do not get exposed to the CNN, NBC, MSNBC, etc., nonsense. I also don't read any mainstream media newspapers or go to their websites.

I keep up with the news through curated social media feeds (this site being one of them), Breitbart, Twitter, Reddit, some FoxNews and maybe peek in on the Drudge Report a few times a day.

During my normal day, I see no hysteria. Nobody in the workplace is hysterical. Nobody out in the streets, at the shopping places, at the beaches, on the roads, etc., are in "hysteria."

I just don't see it.

So my prescription to the rest of you is to cut your cable. Today. Tune out the mainstream media. Your life will be much less stressful, I guarantee it.

It just occurred to me that the hysteria of the American progressives strongly resembles the actions of a jilted paramour. Historically, the progressive left has enjoyed the complete support of “Russia” (i.e. the Soviet Union). It appears that such is no longer the case, and the progressives are pitching a hissy-fit over it.

That David Hogg is 17. Why are adults even paying so much attention to what some kid is saying?

They don’t pay attention....

However the Demorat journalists and pundits USE these kids just like the Democrat party does to carry their agendas...same with protests and the like. Kids today are ‘very’ easily mis-led so the media likes to keep these dingbats pushing the Demorat agenda.

It would be fun to stalk the members of the media and constantly bother them in restaurants like they support the Dem activists doing to GOPers.

So are adults.

Rush just reported that two thirds of registered Democrats believe that Trump has committed Treason. Not just maybe treason, they believe he has actually committed Treason.

Dan, I have no beef with you.

IMO < a person is either a Conservative in their belly or they are not.

I don’t know a single Conservative that could actually tolerate helping Hillary Clinton by the continual trashing of her only opponent.

I wouldn’t/couldn’t do that for a split second.

This guy within our ranks in the trenches, called in our position to the enemy until mid-September 2016.

I don’t wish to fight another battle with him in our ranks.

All the best to you.

‘Every single American ought to be required to read “Blacklisted By History”; ‘

I would agree. If one only has time for one book on this subject it is the one. In passing someone pointed out JFK and his acolyte's almost made a cottage industry out of hailing his heroic endeavors after navigating his torpedo boat into the path of a Japanese destroyer while Joe McCarthey who actually flew multiple combat missions as a Marine aviator was relentlessly mocked as ‘Tailgunner Joe’ for using his war time service as part of his campaign propaganda. McCarthey risked his life every time he flew a mission and not just from enemy action. The number of US and allied aircraft that just ‘failed to return’ in the Pacific are legion and some of their wrecks are still being found on mountainsides in Melanesia.
