no guarantee he gets the nomination

In December of 1776, General Washington and his small army were retreating back across New York, New Jersey, and into Pennsylvania. They were hungry, cold, and so lacking in necessities that many men were barefoot in freezing temperatures. Why were they there? Because just five and a half months earlier, the Declaration of Independence had been signed. These men believed in those self-evident truths so much that they were willing to die for them — as Nathan Hale said, his only regret was that he had "but one life to lose for his country."

If he’s on the ballot I won’t hesitate to vote for him. That’s as much control over voting events as we all have.

Tried to figure out why she wrote this, where she was trying to go with it. A pointless exercise. IMO.

Despite being a supporter of President Trump, both his style and his policies, I will vote in the 2024 primary for the politician who advocates for the policies I support and who has an excellent chance in winning. If that person is Trump I will vote for him. If it is another I will vote for that person. I either support or don't support a politician. I am not blinded by loyalty, which really has no place in the scheme of things.

So she’s saying others plan to challenge him in the primary? If so, the will be a public beat down of the establishment candidates by MAGA supporters. The establishment is probably plotting to split the party enough to impact the 2024 general election.

Unless there is establishment vote fraud, if President Trump runs again, he will get the nomination.

Trump has done 2 years of work, endorsing candidates, and building a war chest of many millions of dollars. That would indicate Trump already has many delegates committed to his nomination, and plenty of money ready for his candidacy. Also, Trump is already widely known. Anyone else seeking the nomination would start at a huge disadvantage. The Democrats think Trump will be the nominee, which is why they are doing everything, legal and illegal, to stop him.

RE: the Laura Ingraham quote (The country I think is so exhausted. They're exhausted by the battle, the constant battle, that they may believe that, well maybe it's time to turn the page if we can get someone who has all Trump's policies, who's not Trump.), DJT is the one at the forefront of this battle. If anyone should be exhausted, it would be him. But, he is the kind of man, and leader, that demonstrates strength when others might have given up, or shown weakness. Who are we to feel exhausted, or even tired enough to give up on a fighter who has already proved his worth as a leader?! It appears that some are hoping to weaken the MAGA movement by splitting loyalties between DJT & Ron DeSantis. The fact that both men have shown themselves to be strong leaders, and with similar apparent views about this Republic, is the one thing that has made that hope to be even a small possibility. Although I like DeSantis, Trump gets my vote if he decides to run, regardless of who else runs. The basic reason why is simple. Whoever runs with all of Trump’s policies will have to fight all of the same battles that Trump has already fought and won. Refighting those battles is a huge waste of time that we can’t afford to waste, if we hope to quickly begin to turn things around and rescue this Constitutional Republic from destruction. Trump doesn’t have to prove himself on the world stage. His wisdom and resolve have already been tested on many fronts by enemies of freedom - foreign and domestic. He has learned many valuable lessons as POTUS. Those lessons, including & perhaps especially about persons & people, should inform the choices & decisions he would make in a second term. We need to utilize his courage, strength, experience and wisdom while we have the opportunity, and save DeSantis for the eight years after that. He could be invaluable help to Trump in another term as governor of Florida, & he could gain invaluable knowledge & experience for his own presidency. May God help us and guide us, & may good prevail.

If he is the nominee I will vote for him and keep my fingers crossed. That said, I think if I knew him I wouldn't like him. Hes and obnoxious blowhard with that New York attitude I so despise. Still, I'm not voting for who I want as a neighbor, I'm voting for who can repair the damage caused by the communist kleptocrats who have been in charge for so long. Thats more important.

Trump is the George Patton of Presidents. He has endured 6 years of continual persecution by the left that few others could withstand. The left despises Trump because he is not a politician nor part of the establishment. He is also rich and cannot be bought. But most of all, he has a primal instinct about what the left is trying to do this country, which is to destroy the middle class which is the last obstacle against a leftest takeover of this country and all that is is left of the resistance against a socialist hell. He fought the left in the trenches for 4 years, using the left's own tactics against them. No other President has fought so fiercely for the the working class in this country. The working class knows it and that is why they love him. He draws tens of thousands at his rallies. The press refuses to pan the crowd to show this huge support. Trump knows how to beat the left at their own game, that is why they must destroy him at all costs. He is their Waterloo and they are fearful of what he is capable of by harnessing the collective power of the American people unlike any other President has done. He is the Roosevelt of the conservative movement. Do yourself a favor and stick with the proven over the promising. I do like Desantis and can only hope a Trump/Desantis ticket emerges. Can you imagine the victories they could achieve together with we the people at their backs?

But, so say we the people, Olivia, we will decide who gets the nod. If he chooses to run, the Donald will receive my vote during the primaries and. if successful, also in November 2024.

The desperation of the Democratic Party appears to know no bounds. On Tuesday, the House Oversight Committee engaged in a markup on a resolution of inquiry (ROI) that requires President Joe Biden to hand over documents related to his family's international business schemes, including and especially as it relates to his son, Hunter. During the markup, however, two Democratic members decided to pivot to Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), and remarks he made at CPAC that were taken out of context. This includes Rep.

In 1990, Ken Burns was the great talent behind The Civil War, an epic nine-episode PBS documentary that he made for PBS. It was comprehensive, gorgeous, heartbreaking, and riveting. His later work wasn’t as good but it was still damned good. But Burns, like so many leftists, is now so riddled with hatred for Republicans that he cheapens his every utterance and destroys his own legacy. The latest example is how he’s used his upcoming documentary, The US and the Holocaust, to bash modern Republicans and cover for WWII-era Democrats.

Recently, the Arizona Mirror revealed that the Republican Party in Arizona is urging Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell to financially support U.S. Senate candidate Blake Masters. Masters, who secured a coveted endorsement from President Trump, triumphed in the primaries based on that seal of approval. In the beginning, Masters was trailing his Democrat rival, incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly, by a significant margin of 12 points. But matters have recently swung in Masters's favor, and a recent Emerson College poll has Kelly leading Masters by just two percentage points.
Dogs Bark, Wolves Howl: The Woke Demand
to Be Domesticated
14 replies
Posted by DW626 9/19/2022 6:09:57 AM Post Reply
Dogs bark; wolves howl. The domestication process that turned wolves into family pets has served the dog well. For most, it meant guaranteed food, shelter, and comfort while being able to stay in a familiar social structure (humans as pack leader, etc.). But there was a trade-off — a big one. That same process trapped domestic dogs in a permanent state of adolescence. Essentially, when one is domesticated, one stops growing up. And that time lock is why Rover barks and does not howl like a wolf — the wolf in the wild is able to grow up and, as with most members of the Canis species, howls

Who knew that residents of woke and progressive Martha’s Vineyard were racist, white supremacist, xenophobes? Former President Barack Obama owns a $12 million estate on this racist island off the coast of Massachusetts. Are the Obamas racists? Other liberal celebrities either live or frequent Martha’s Vineyard, including Oprah Winfrey, Larry David, Bill Murray, John Kerry, and the Clintons. Perhaps they are all racists, too, as the island has become anti-immigration. As NBC News confidently asserts, there is “racism behind anti-immigration rhetoric,” rhetoric which we are now hearing from Martha’s Vineyard. Democrats and the left do not believe in a sovereign national border, instead encouraging illegal immigration and amnesty

The battle of life calls forth three noble and healthful psychological attributes: loyalty to kin and country; honor of work that protects and promotes survival; and, most fundamental to mental health, gratitude for the gift of life itself. Spirituality is always practical, and practicality is inherently spiritual, because they share the vital functions of protecting life and promoting full humanness. Loyalty to kin and country is essential to survival. Honoring those who labor in the many aspects of service is natural justice. The foundation of mental health is the experience of gratitude for the gift of life. Gratitude is the beautiful background music of life.

Let me say at the outset that I’d rather have Lindsey Graham in the United States Senate than any Democrat, especially the clown he beat last time who is now the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee (liberals fail up).

U.S. doctors should regularly screen all adults under 65 for anxiety, an influential health guidelines group proposed Tuesday. It's the first time the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has recommended anxiety screening in primary care for adults without symptoms. The proposal is open for public comment until Oct. 17, but the group usually affirms its draft guidance. The recommendations are based on a review that began before the Covid-19 pandemic, evaluating studies showing potential benefits and risks from screening. Given reports of a surge in mental health problems linked with pandemic isolation and stress, the guidance is "very timely," said Lori Pbert, a task force member and co-author.
