WIPEOUT
President-elect Donald Trump, fresh on the heels of his victory in the election, is already working on staffing up his next administration. Some high-profile options for Cabinet posts, such as Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas and Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, have removed themselves from contention for now, but other hires are underway, like the selection of co-campaign chair Susie Wiles to be the first female White House chief of staff.

Brutal but not entirely unexpected either, given that Biden is the worst President in U.S. history; and the excuses, finger pointing, and recriminations began almost immediately. Apparently, many were surprised by the Dem defeat last Tuesday and to some degree, it’s to be expected given the fraudulent polling that took place (characterizing the race between Harris and Trump as “too close to call”). Just as Dems took the House, Senate, and White House in 2020, this go around the Republicans appear to have won the Triple Crown.
But why was the outcome a surprise? This race wasn’t so much for Trump’s to win, but for the Demo party’s to lose. And lose Dems did, four years of losing. After all, the Dems, Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer failed from every conceivable angle, a complete abdication of responsibility, a dereliction of duty and professionalism, a betrayal of the nation and its people. If these were the adults in the room, Dems should all be tried and sent to prison for parental abuse and neglect. The only question remaining: Why haven’t the two parties disbanded and dissolved a long time ago? If these two parties were running a business, the bond and shareholders would have sacked these management teams decades ago, both Dem and GOP.
Didn’t Dems see the writing on the wall? The necro-neolib-neocon-wartime economy has been a disaster for the American people, with 39% working gig, 50% unable to see a doctor or afford one, 66% unable to meet a $400 emergency, another 70% living check to check. Perhaps the voters were tired of the endless litany of gaslighting and lies issuing forth from economists, elites, pundits, the MSM… telling Americans how great the economy is, how inflation has ‘cooled,’ and it’s all better now, be grateful children, be of good cheer? Maybe it’s the billionaires, who saw their net worth double during the pandemic, the record profits for cartels, monopolies, utilities, and Wall St, while child poverty climbed, eating for far too many Americans became a luxury, and homelessness soared. Whatever could have angered the American voters? Maybe it was the constant fearmongering from Dem party grandees on how bad and evil Trump was and is; and yet, this same cadre of cowards failed to prosecute Trump for the one thing that would have kept Trump out of power for a second term, insurrection? Wars, all kinds of new wars… the genocide in Gaza, the genocide in the Ukraine, Cold & Hot wars with Mother Russia, and a shiny new Cold & Trade war with China… as the national debt and deficits continue to climb, higher & higher, to catastrophic levels (leaving Americans to pick up the tab w/ zero to show for it). Maybe it was abdication of all responsibility for the soaring cost of living, the corporate greed, the price gouging… instead, the day trading congress cashed in on monopoly profits, punted to the Federal Reserve, who in turn jacked up interest rates (only for the FED to capitulate to greed and bring the rates back down, when they lost all appetite for the fight because of soaring debt service loads on the national debt - the extravagant debt the central bank created bailing out the rich, repeatedly)?
What could it have been, what could it have been? I know, it was the middle finger Biden, Nancy, and Schumer gave the American people when they delivered endless corporate welfare, paybacks for bribes, tax cuts, wars, land & resource grants to Oil & Gas companies & corporate interests… while telling the American people: Sorry, no BBB, child tax credit, cannabis legalization, higher minimum wage, student loan forgiveness for you, America. Don’t the Americans get it, this is how the game is played. Lofty words and promises (that will never be kept) for the people, and endless grants of monopoly, welfare, and taxpayer money for the donors, the rich & the powerful. Kamala covering for her senile boss for nearly four years, four years of fraud, mismanagement, plus a year of genocide in America’s name… probably didn’t help Kam’s credibility, did it? Kam's sudden love of fracking and no mention of a planet that is burning and flooding, under the yoke of repugnant fossil fuels? Maybe it was Kam running around on the campaign trail with right-wing, war hawks… adopting Hillary’s winning playbook, circa 2016…. attempting to out-Republican, out-rightwing Team Trump and the GOP?
Maybe it was American women tired of being used as the duopoly’s chew toy on abortion rights, when Dems had not one but two opportunities to codify Roe? Nah, that couldn’t have been it… I know, it was Bill Clinton and Obama talking down to the public on the campaign trail, after they both played singular roles in gutting the middle class, unions, and workers??? Obama chastising black men; Clinton telling Muslims how to vote? As if America owed the repugnant Demo party their vote. Really? That’s the sales pitch, America owes the Democratic party.
Perhaps it was the genocide and the refusal to pullover on genocide, after the majority of Americans demanded it? No?
Gee, when we look at the Dem’s track record, honestly, it’s really no wonder Dems lost. Maybe the only real mystery is why voter turnout was as high as it was, given the collapse and failure of the two-party system (it’s been reported 16 million Americans chose not to vote, versus 2020… which let’s be honest, not voting is voting, a vote for none of the above).
And still a catastrophically failed establishment and party elites play the blame game… Kam’s shift right-wing (forgive me, Kam’s nonexistent shift left), voter misogyny, racism, a lack of gratitude… per The Party & MSM, all account for Kam’s defeat and the Ogre’s rise & resurrection.
Anybody and everybody are to blame, except Dem party leaders, the deep state, the kleptocracy, the monopolies, SV, and Wall St. (more specifically, BlackRock). Then again, America is only kidding itself… the MSM and the party knows full well why they lost but have zero interest in assessing blame to themselves or seeking help and reform. And they never will, after all Dems did their job: they delivered for donors; perpetuated & caretakers for a failed status quo - check; they delivered for Wall St & War. It's another reason America is failing: never accept responsibility for your actions, never do legitimate postmortems, and never apologize.
In some respects, the American people won. Last Tuesday they voted the crooks and criminals out of power, the Democratic party…. But it’s the nature of political duopolies that another party of crooks came in through the revolving door & in that sense, the American people lost. Four more years of abject criminality, corruption, failure, fraud, looting, neglect, wars… under new Trump management… are you ready America? Consider this, it’s time to ditch these parties, and not necessarily find or create new parties; but much better, expand the franchise with greater direct democracy, greater decision making for The People as a whole. The technology is there, we should finally use the promise of the internet for the greater good… to take back that which is our birthright, the United States government and the United States.
Imagine a world without crony democracy, manipulative elites, and political parties… it’s easy if you try.
