1) Listening to Lee Greenwood's "Proud to be an American," it prompted me to think about American national "anthems." From "God Bless America," to "This Land is Your Land," to " America the Beautiful" to "Proud to be an American," these songs have something in common . . . 1) contd . . . that is, besides patriotism: they all celebrate America's landscape.

2) In this, we are pretty much unique in the world.

3) I asked a European History expert friend about this phenomena, and he agreed. Most foreign patriotic songs are strictly political.

1) The Trump strategies in this campaign have been brutally effective.

2) Most recently, J.D. Vance refused to debate Kampuchea Harris because "we don't know who the DemoKKKrat nominee is!"

3) This is obviously true, but more important it short-circuited Rutabaga's strat: 3) contd. . . Rutabaga's team thought they could buy time & bolster the campaign if Harris had a good debate against Vance. (Forget for a moment that the Cackling One was highly unlikely to have a good showing at all).

4) Anyway, Rutabaga thought he could do 2 things.

1) Details of the Botoxic/Rutabaga phone call have leaked. They are VERY telling.

2) Botoxic supposedly gave him "data" that he would lose.

3) This is VERY IMPORTANT: It tells you they know they CANNOT STEAL IT. If they could, she wouldn't have made that call! 4) Contrary to Hoax Media reports---remember, this whole thing is a Hoax Media-led coup attempt on Rutabaga---that Biden was more willing to consider stepping down, he got in a yelling match with Botoxic and said her "data" was wrong.

1) The handwringing McClellans are out, esp. after the FR/BR elections.

2) Systems matter, and POLICIES matter.

3) France was a victim of the first. They have a goofball multi-election system combined with a proportional representation structure . . . 3) contd . . . (the same that led to Hitler in Weimar Germany). Under this structure, no one is pushed to the middle to a definitive yes/no on any candidate or party. Instead, they have enclave parties that must make coalitions to "govern."

4) Le Pen never had more than 35%.

1) This is a fascinating development. It's the first time in my life the Hoax News lib media has gone after a DemoKKKrat President.

2) The Media had a fawning, love relationship with JFK. Never asked a single tough question about his blunders, his affairs, or his health.

3) They didn't like LBJ but left him alone, except for some anti-war leakers.

4) But they absolutely hated Nixon. He hated them. They succeeded in the first ever "journalists' coup" in American history to get him out (with help from the CIA).

Things go file away:
1) It is nearly impossible for Rutabaga to resign as the NOMINEE but remain PRESIDENT. If he is too senile for one---in the public mind---he is too senile for the other.
2) If VP Harris became Acting President upon a Rutabaga resignation, she does NOT . . . 2) contd . . . Constitutionally have to name a veep for the remainder of the term. John Tyler didn't in 1841 and left the vice presidency empty for three years. Mike Johnson would be next in the line of succession.

3) This would be the best fire insurance ever for Harris.

1) Zero (Obama) just RE-endorsed Rutabaga. Oops. Doesn't sound like he's goin' anywhere.

2) Why? Of all the DemoKKKrat fecalmonkeys, Zero seems grounded in electoral reality. He knows that replacing Rutabaga with Harris would result in a 400 EV loss for the DemoKKKrats. 3) The down-ticket collapse under Kampuchea Harris would be a thing to behold. She loses, according to Baris's polls, every single Rust Belt state and it won't be close. This would make PA, OH, and WI senate races close.

1) Good points. @TrentTelenko mentioned Thomas Eagleton's veep resignation in 1972.

2) First, he left in September, BEFORE the absentee ballots went out.

3) Second, neither party relied on the early votes like they do today, but even if they had E left in time. @TrentTelenko 4) However, McGovern/DemoKKKrats didn't have the looming issue of Ohio's ballot on Aug. 7 to contend with.

5) TT suggests there would be challenges to state laws.

1) More DemoKKKrat meltdown this fine morning:

David Axelgrease: “I think the panic had set in."

AP: "Biden appeared to lose his train of thought" (That train done left the station years ago)

2) PsychoDrudge: "Cruel Jill Clings to Power."

Yahoo: The Senior Sk . K must step up 3) Yet they continue to lie:

"for all the good he’s done in office, is struggling to make his case to the American people and does indeed come across as a struggling elderly man"

HE HASN'T DONE ANY GOOD. HE HAS DESTROYED A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY.

1) If I'm coaching Pres. Trump for the debate, the strat is threefold, simple, and deadly effective.

2) Since they are counting on "triggering him" with "convicted felon," he must not debate or challenge that. 3) Rather turn it: "THIS 'convicted felon' (air quotes) will immediately close the border, begin deporting illegal invaders, stop the crushing inflation that is destroying the lifestyle of middle class Americans, rebuild the economy Biden crushed, & negotiate peace in Ukraine."

1) The latest hair-brained scheme/rumor going around is that Rutabaga will replace Kampuchea Harris with . . . wait for it . . . CANKLES. Then "they" will remove Rutabaga and Cankles de facto becomes the candidate.

2) Break it down! 3) Let's begin with the obvious. The HOUSE must vote to accept a replacement. Johnson wouldn't do this, and he might also be smart enough to drag this on past the convention and Oct. 7 when the ballots go out---at which time ANY vote for "Biden/Harris" would be disqualified.

1) We had just started a kind of "open mike" set at the Troubadour in LA. I for the life of me cannot recall how we got all our stuff set up---that alone was an hour job at least.

2) Anyway, we started playing---only original songs. We had 2-3 that were excellent. 3) One, written by our singer Doug, called "Mississippi Funk," was a real toe tapper, and our "hit" was "Didn't Want to Have to Say Goodbye to You." Anyway . . .

4) We barely got into the first song when the Who---or half, anyway---Pete Townsend and John Entwhistle . . .

1) I spent some time speaking with county elections officials in AZ, OH, and WI.

2) You have to work backward from the date of the EARLY/ABSENTEE ballots being mailed out.

3) Once those go out (around Oct. 7 in most counties---who send them out), ANY change is impossible. 4) By which I mean, if Biden's name is on a ballot that goes out, they cannot get that back. Moreover, per county election official, if Biden is NOT on the ticket, ANY ballot that comes back with his name on it is NOT COUNTED.

5) So anytime after Oct. 7, DemoKKKrats . . .

1) Zen Master said in December 2023 that by refusing to expedite the FL case, the Supes essentially killed all the cases except NY against Trump.

2) So, have I not been sayin' it and sayin' it? 3) If you read the libtoid insiders---Politico, Hill, and especially Vox---they will tell you the state of the election. And, voila! Here is Vox, courtesy of Zen Master, showing your their abject panic.

4) They are now pushing BOTH the "Wise Latina" and Kagan to RESIGN NOW.

1) The lastest hopium fecalscatter from the libtoid spoogenuggets is something to behold. They are now admitting Trump will win the popular vote, but magically Rutabaga will somehow get the battleground states.

2) Nope.

3) This is all based on one flawed CBS poll. 4) But it tells us so much. Yep, Trump is over 50% nationally (that translates to 320-340 EVs)

5) Yep, Trump is at 49% with Hispanics, a death-signal for DemoKKKrats. They cannot win with that number.

6) Trump is only down 2 to white college class. Another death knell.

1) Many of you are beyond angry, and bitter. I get it. This is an assault every bit as serious as Confederate secession in 1860-61. Here is my Q&A: 2) Q: Was this "crime" before Trump was president, hence not covered by immunity?

Zen Master: "Actually Trump's "crimes" occurred when he was President. The indictment starts with events in January 2017." So it would fall under aspects of the Supes immunity decision.

1) I try to subscribe to as many substacks and subscriptions as I can, but I can only afford so many. But this one sent to me by a friend, is important enough that if you want to pay have at it.

2) Mark Halperin is a leftoid who bends over backwards to find a silver lining . . . 3)Here

4) Halperin comes to the conclusion we all knew over 3 years ago-Rutabaga is demented.

5) "to put the matter both directly and carefully, some well-place sources see a recent physical and mental decline in Joe Biden that frightens them . . .wwoncc.substack.com/welcome

1) To take a little break from the drumbeat of stupidity from the left and injustice from the trials, I offer this little story.

2) Today, I got a royalty check for my "48 Liberal Lies About American History." I usually only look at the most recent number sold. 3) But for the first time in years, I looked at total sold---hardcover, paperback, e-book, etc. 113,500. I had no idea that book had sold that well over time. Then I remembered . . .

4) My own author copy orders, which I sell at conventions, don't count to that total!

1) My mission has been to exhort, encourage, and instill faith-based optimism as much as is possible and supported by reality.

2) Here are just some of the ways in the past month we have been winning. The globalist cabal is definitely on their heels. 3) The new Dutch government has begun deportations of illegals and has reversed so-called "green" planet-killing programs.

4) Disney has postponed (maybe indefinitely) some of its biggest movies because they are bombing at the box office ("Captain America Spooge" or whatever.)

1) I CAUTION EVERYONE--and would tell Team Trump the same thing: DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE the demon living inside the Rutabaga shell.

2) Indeed, many (including Rush Limbaugh, who didn't think Biden could even win the nomination, and myself) underestimated him in 2020.

3) You must understand he has a demonic presence inside his toasted anal-bacon shell, and that demonic presence repeatedly has risen to perform: SOTU, certain speeches, and in the 2020 debates where he did very well.

4) Trump cannot treat him as he did Cankles in 2016.

1) After WW II, the US was the beneficiary of what I call the "golden accident." For the first time in human history, a single nation or power was the WORLD'S #1 producer AND #1 consumer.

2) The US accounted for around 40% of ALL world trade (including the commie countries). 3) Some statistics suggest the US accounted for up to 1/3 of the WORLD'S production.

4) It was 15 years before Europe, then 20 years before Japan, recovered enough to challenge.
