"Because we have all had enough of your experts, your condescension, your smugness, your dishonesty, your cancelling, your judgement."

AMEN! I held my nose and voted for Trump for this reason.

After last tonight the Democratic Party (my party) must rethink many of its policies as it ponders its future.

To have a chance at victory Democrats should try listening to the concerns of the working class for a change. As a lifelong moderate Democrat I share their distain for many of the insane positions advocated by my party.

Democrat politicians defy biology by believing that men can actually become women and belong in women’s sports, rest rooms, locker rooms and prisons and that children should be mutilated in pursuit of the impossible.

They believe borders should be open to millions of illegals which undermines workers’ wages and the affordability of housing when we can’t house our own citizens.

They discriminate against whites, Asians and men in a vain effort to counter past discrimination against others and undermine our economy by abandoning merit selection of students and employees.

Democratic mayors allow homelessness to destroy our beautiful cities because they won't say no to destructive behavior. No you can’t camp in this city. No you can’t shit in our streets No you can’t shoot up and leave your used needles everywhere. Many of our prosecutors will not take action against shoplifting unless a $1000 of goods are stolen leading to gangs destroying retail stores. They release criminals without bond to rob and murder again.

The average voter knows this is happening and outright reject our party. Enough.

Exactly. Seattle- all drugs are legal. Portland- no one arrested is charged. San Francisco- shit map now defines a once beautiful city. Such a shame because these were once great cities. Cowardly politicians in all three states allowed these cities to be destroyed. People have left these states for FL, TX, TN, AZ, and so on. No one wants their tax dollars wasted on failed city and state policies. It will be decades before these clueless cities and states rise to their former glory.

Dave, you have put this so well! Thank you. I walked away from the party a few years ago for all of these reasons. I'm starting to refer to the Democrats ad the anti-science party, because from their handling of Covid to transgenderism to sports to abortion to the causes of homelessness to Joe Biden's mental state, they have consistently been denying so many fields of science. It's just incredible. I wonder if post-modernism with its insistence that there is no truth, has gotten us here?

100% Jennifer. Thank you for using your platform in a fearless, honest and amazing way 🙏🏻. As for us we woke-up to a close family member striking more opinion and division in social media and will keep "mostly" quiet for the sake of seeing the grandchildren 😕

God Bless America 🇺🇸

After holding out for the past 2 elections, I finally did it. For all these reasons and more. It felt like ripping off a bandage -- it was hard to even look as I was filling in the circle -- but I did it. And I have zero regrets.

This is the perfect response to all those who said, "I can't believe anyone with a gram of intelligence could vote for Trump. What are they thinking?" Well, folks, this is exactly what they are thinking.

Don’t hold back Jen. How do you really feel? 🤣🤣🤣

My two prayers this morning are that Trump actually listens to and utilizes the broad coalition he built, and that the Republicans don’t do what they usually do and forget the lessons of the election. I doubt the Democrats do because that would require self awareness.

Love the Morning Joe GASLIGHT!!! You could power Las Vegas on that guys gaslighting delusion of his views leading up to this morning.

I'm with you. I'm neither a Trump-o-phile or Trump-o-phobe. He's a guy with a unique personality, and an instinct for stirring the pot. I hope he can stir a lot of pots. I also hope he's able to take good council from group he's got around him.

Guardrails are for highways. Anyone who uses the word in a political context is a dullard.

This week started out with a victory of another kind. A teen boy found my channel through my videos on child development, learning the fact that Dr. Olson-Kennedy, "gender expert" and waster of millions, illegally held back study results on teens taking puberty blockers. A full 1/4 of the subjects didn't have better mental health outcomes. "Gender doctors" apparently don't know Piaget's developmental stages, as "since earliest memory" and "born in wrong body" don't fit. "Paul" said he was confused, feeling he has a feminine face, but he wanted to ask me, as I'm not in that camp. We corresponded for 6 weeks. I mentioned various healthy habits, various reasons to avoid too much time online and on the phone. He thought about my suggestions, added more integrative mind/body activities, and this week told me he doesn't have much to write, because feeling that way must have been from the early exposure to pornography. Thank goodness he didn't go to that club or that clinic. This is the 5th child I've seen drop cross-sex ideation after a reset with habits. I didn't tell him what to do. I told him what thoughts his questions brought to mind for me.

Agreed. I was personally hoping for a Harris win, but I 1000% understand why Trump won and why people would vote for him. Its up to the Democratic Party to do some soul searching to understand why they lost, and deserved to lose last night. Forcing unpopular programs and nonsensical social reforms ostracized many Americans. All I can hope for is in 2 years to have candidates who advocate for moderate, popular positions while also pushing for classic liberal programs. Unfortunately, most democratic voters right now are crying on TikTok about how everyone hates women without any insight into exactly what makes people disaffected with the Democratic Party.

Trump has said he doesn’t want anyone involved with project 2025 working for him because of how unpopular it is.

I will have nothing in 2 years? What does that even mean? My personal property will be taken from me? Trump will be bad for our country for reasons he’s actually stated—I anticipate he’ll have a deportation policy that will hurt families and the economy. But hyperbolic statements take away from the legitimate arguments against trump

Beautifully written, thank you. I'd add that the lawfare against Trump was inexcusable.

I used to think the Constitutional prohibition against bills of attainder was a useless appendage: not anymore.
