    He really DID nail it. I have said that sometimes CNN appears to be turning the corner and going back to what it once was. The is a glimpse of that. Bongino said this morning that Democrats never review what went wrong in an election they lose. They view themselves to be above the common people and assume that they are right and either they didn't communicate their message well, or the people are just too stupid to understand it. He said they will spend time in the next few weeks pointing fingers at who screwed up, not even considering that the message they are sending and the ideas they have are just plain wrong. I said before I stopped voting for any Democrat when I discovered they assume we are stupid. Their attitude has just gotten worse since then.

    It has also been said that Trump's victory says to the MSM, "You are now irrelevant. The message and the lies , and the coverups you propagated throughout the past several years have been ignored." The Network Community has now triumphed and we don't need the MSM to tell us what to think any more. I looked up The Christian Science Monitor since I didn't know if it still existed, and found an article entitled, "What to do if Trump denies losing another election and tries to over turn the results again." That pretty much sums up what the MSM and the Establishment thinks of the electorate in America.

    Even as the Democrats hired a slew of lawyers to do just that.

    Okay, everyone, if this is true, it is going to make everything even better ! Read on and behold…..
    https://thehill.com/homenews/state-...to-award-electoral-votes-to-whoever-wins-the/

    In 2019 , Colorado and 14 other states, including California and Maryland , enacted an agreement that they would award ALL their electoral votes to whomever won the popular vote in the election.
    Unless they recently took that law off the books, at least Colorado, and maybe the others (still researching this !), will all be giving their electoral votes to President Trump, as the winner of the popular vote !
    I can’t post the screenshot from THE HILL, but have included the link from back in 2019, so everyone can read it.

    Here are the states which have enacted this into law by 2024, and it actually would give Trump ALL the electoral votes, if this is correct, because they include all the states that are blue ones.

    As of April 15, 2024, the National Popular Vote bill has been enacted into law in 18 jurisdictions possessing 209 electoral votes, including

    • 6 small jurisdictions (District of Columbia, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Rhode Island, Vermont),
    • 9 medium-sized states (Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington), and
    • 3 big states (California, Illinois, New York).
    https://www.nationalpopularvote.com/state-status


    Edit to add:
    It looks like these states passed it into law, but it does not take effect unless enough states passed it into law to equal 270 electoral votes, so apparently, it does not count even in the states that made it law.

    Have any of you heard about any plans for violence by the left-over election results?

    The View girls really need to look in the mirror and ask themselves if they might be their own problem. Always blaming others for things you need to own up to yourselves will never make you right. Put on your big girl panties and stop wasting your lives away, yuck, who wouldn't ever watch you but other losers!!

    The way I see it, the lefties in our government did more to sell the American people on Trump than anyone else, although, we do have a pretty large population that know Truth when they hear it :)

    I was just watching Kamala's concession speech. It was a good speech. I wonder who wrote it. If she could only have believed what she said and could have delivered that message months ago. She might have had a better chance.

    I don't know about CNN. I think Scott Jennings is their "token conservative" and they gang up on him with their hysterics. But I can't say for sure because I'll be damned if I ever watch CNN. :D

    I prefer the Babylon Bee, where you can find gems like this... https://babylonbee.com/news/flash-flood-warnings-issued-liberal-tears-continue-soak-nation

    Read this morning that the immigration activist are getting ready for anything that Trump try's to do. They plan on stopping his deportation stuff as soon as he starts it. They stated, "We need immigrants whether they are legal or not. Leave all of those alone! They do the work that Americans refuse to do."

    Now, what I'm wondering about is, when will all of the signs in Spanish come down? There are businesses in So. California that have signs in auto parts, for what is on each isle, that are written in English, Spanish and Vietnamese.

    Remember when ICE would take away illegals from businesses in van loads. Wonder if that will happen again?

    Just how much slack with Trump get for enforcing his immigration policies for his Presidency. I read that it will cost America billions to enforce/send back all of the illegals that are in America now.

    To say the least, this "immigration" thing will be interesting. Will the immigrants at our southern borders be able to come into America, like they use to. Will Mexico continue to hold them back, since Trump got elected?

    She would have had to be a whole different person to have a better chance she just doesn't have the makings. I thought surely she'd choke on those words but she was just reading them so they didn't mean anything to her really especially when she talked about hard work I didn't see her do any work at all except maybe sign something she didn't do the job she was assigned to do which was the borders czar. And talking about how she loves the people I mean Kamala you'll never convince me you love anybody but yourself enough out of me. She is over and I hope the door does hit her in the ass when she leaves

    That would be hilarious @Yvonne Smith. Even the states Trump lost he would have won.

    I heard Democrats saying two things on the radio this afternoon:

    1-Americans are too stupid to understand the Dems' message.
    2-Americans are not ready for a mixed-race couple in the White House.
