The tantrums in American streets

Political Cartoons by Gary McCoy

Anti-Trump Riots: I’ve Seen It Before – Twice! . . . "When dealing with children, a prompt and meaningful response is essential. Does this mean they should be locked up? Of course not. If we locked up the rioters that would only mean that we would support them in prison instead of at college. Either way it’s money coming out of our pockets that relieves them of the responsibility of being able to support themselves. The penalty for rioting while you are going to college on the government’s dime shouldn’t be prison, but it might be the equivalent to cutting off their allowance. In other words, if they have financial support in some form or other whether as some sort of tuition subsidy or welfare, after being found guilty I believe a more immediate and lasting lesson would be learned by saying, “You better learn to pay your own tuition bills, because the government isn’t going to support you anymore.” . . .

. . . "And though the numbers at these protests don’t appear to be overly large, the intensity of them appears to make up some of the difference. In Seattle, violence was in the air both in the rhetoric of the speakers practicing street theater and in the literal sense, as four people were shot. In Chicago, a man was beaten and his car stolen for having manifested himself as a Donald Trump supporter. In New York, street theater turned threatening as hundreds surrounded Trump’s home at Trump Tower — more than a dozen arrested. Some 40 fires were started and three police officers were injured from Molotov Cocktail-hurling thugs in Oakland. Los Angeles police arrested 28 people attempting to block an interstate highway. Even the Hard-Left local government of Portland, Oregon termed the protests a riot after the orgy of property destruction unleashed there." . . .

"But right now, at least some liberals are considering literally ending ties with relatives—including not letting grandparents see their grandkids!—over a vote for Trump."
The Daily Signal . . . "Again: What? What are the rights that supposedly Trump is going to take away? We’ve been living in a country where, as The Weekly Standard’s Mark Hemingway tweeted, “Obama did sue nuns over birth control for crying out loud,” where religious bakers and florists have been told they have to participate in same-sex weddings, where an African-American fire chief lost his job over a book he wrote about his religious beliefs that included passages on same-sex marriage, and yet, the real threat to rights is from Trump?" . . .

I say much of this legacy of vitriol can be linked to Obama and his mentors . . .


. . . and George Soros.

Soros-fronted orgs among groups calling for anti-Trump protests
“Tonight, thousands of Americans will come together at hundreds of peaceful gatherings in cities and towns across the nation, including outside the White House, following the results of Tuesday’s presidential election.”
“The gatherings—organized by MoveOn.org and allies—will affirm a continued rejection of Donald Trump’s bigotry, xenophobia, Islamophobia, and misogyny and demonstrate our resolve to fight together for the America we still believe is possible,” the statement continued."
. . . "In an article from 2004, the Washington Post revealed that Soros and his wife, Susan Weber Soros, gave $1.46 million to Move.On.org.  
"In 2014, a data analytics company called Catalist, specializing in progressive causes, received a new round of investment funding, including $2.25 million from liberal billionaire George Soros, CNN reported at the time."

On the Electoral College: UPDATED

"The case against America’s idiosyncratic election system isn’t as simple as you think." 
 Four Theses on the Electoral College  . . . "Democrats are seething at having lost the presidency while winning the popular vote for the second time in the twenty-first century. Liberal media outlets are publishing a flurry of pieces attacking America’s allegedly antiquated system for electing its presidents, and social media is abuzz with petitions to replace it with a national popular vote system. This reaction is understandable: Our democratic instincts tells us that all votes should count exactly equally, and that the person who gets the most total votes should win.
"But the case against James Madison’s original design isn’t quite that simple. Here are four points that liberals upset with the outcome might weigh against the visceral indignation of an electoral-popular vote split." . . .

You should know the above map was prior to the election and contained this:








Hillary wins the popular vote – not  . . . "But the Electoral College brilliantly smooths out the variances in the voting proclivities among states and regions.  Farmers in the middle of the country and importers and exporters on the shore get roughly equal say, as do Madison Ave. execs and factory workers in Tennessee.

"Shortcomings?  Sure.  The E.C. can make an R vote meaningless in a very few heavily D states or vice versa.  But without the Electoral College, the country’s entire population is subject to the disproportionate voting preferences of the few most populous states."

NRO: Why We Have an Electoral College  . . . "Every state gets one electoral vote for each of its congressional representatives. This means that the larger states have more say in electing a president, but no state has no say — each, no matter how sparsely populated, gets at least three votes, one for the minimum congressman-at-large and one for each senator." . . .





 "There have been countless stories, news clips, soc media vids etc of liberals whining and complaining about the electoral system. It’s very existence is to prevent what these sore losers are demanding, mob rule. If the electoral college was not in place a handful of states would decide elections for the entire nation. Do you want New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, Illinois, California or even Texas deciding who the next President is? If democrats and all the snowflakes, participating in Soros organized protests coast-to-coast, were to get their way that is exactly what will happen!"

Hilarious: New York Times Publisher Vows To ‘Rededicate’ Paper To Reporting Honestly  "Via Fox News:

The publisher of The New York Times penned a letter to readers Friday promising that the paper would “reflect” on its coverage of this year’s election while rededicating itself to reporting on “America and the world” honestly. Arthur O. Sulzberger Jr., the paper’s embattled publisher, appealed to Times readers for their continued support. “We cannot deliver the independent, original journalism for which we are known without the loyalty of our subscribers,” the letter states.   Keep reading…

Who will be Trump's chief of staff? Kellyanne Conway says the announcement of The Donald's assistant is 'imminent'

UK Daily Mail  . . . "Conway told reporters late Saturday night that there are 'several people being considered' for the position, according to ABC News.  
"But, she added, 'it's Mr Trump's decision ultimately'. 
"She said that she thinks 'Reince Priebus has expressed interest in the position' as well. 
Conway told reporters that she believes RNC chairman Reince Priebus (left) has expressed interest in the position. Steve Bannon (right), campaign CEO for Trump is also being considered for chief of staff

. . . "Trump ran as an outsider, but some suggest it would be risky to tap another outsider to serve as his right hand in the Oval Office.
" 'I'm trying to think of who was successful as chief of staff as an outsider and I can't think of one,' said John H. Sununu, the former New Hampshire governor who served as chief of staff for the first three years of former President George H.W. Bush's administration."

Trump and the military


Inside the mind of Trump's national security guru   . . . "If Flynn is Trump's national security advisor or secretary of defense we can expect him to push for a closer relationship with the Russians; a punitive policy on Iran -- and a more aggressive war on Islamist militants around the world. These views mesh well with what we have heard from Donald Trump on the campaign trail. 
"Such new policies, however, come with real risks: Warmer relations with the Russians might encourage Putin's adventurism in Eastern Europe . . ."
Bear in mind, this source is the openly anti-Trump CNN.

This retired Army general was a scholar and acolyte of David Petraeus. Now he’s on Team Trump  . . . “ 'Anyone who can keep that group heading in the same direction should be well suited to assisting the Trump team with government transition in the weeks ahead,” Mansoor said. " . . .

Winners and whiners

Political Cartoons by Glenn McCoy

For the first time in 8 years, I am proud of my country  . . . "Still, until the very end, on November 7, thousands of unintimidated, courageous Americans showed up at Trump's rallies to save this country from the pervasive darkness blanketing this nation.
"On January 20, we will begin to sift through the wreckage of the Obama years.  The  out-of-control, angry, hate-filled protesters burning Trump in  effigy, publicly calling for his assassination, and brutalizing innocent people are Obama's nightmarish children.  Their lawless tantrums after the election remind us exactly why we, along with Donald Trump, beat Hillary Clinton."

MoveOn Petition Asks Electoral College to Vote Hillary Clinton  . . . "Furthermore, Hillary Clinton has already done the right thing, conceding the race to Trump and encouraging her supporters to accept the results of the election. Even if the Electoral College were to buck the voters and cast their ballots for Clinton, that would not alter the election, as she has already ruled herself out." . . .
If it turns out Hillary is sincere about this, she will have at last earned some new respect.

Hate in the Time of Tantrums  "We're living in a time of tantrums right now.  Liberals, progressives, and soi-disantsocial justice warriors are acting out everywhere from Harvard to the Hollywood Freeway that was blocked near my house last night by demonstrators waving signs reading "Love Trumps Hate," as they chanted "F... Trump!" over the din of the traffic." . . .

If there is so much hatred and bigotry in America . . .why do Liberals have to fake hate crimes, and acts of hatred and discrimination?

"Looks like Trump supporters have replaced the "big black guy" as faux perpetrator."

 A University of Louisiana Lafayette student who said she was physically attacked and robbed of her wallet and hijab made up the story, according to the Lafayette Police Department.
Public Information Officer Karl Ratcliff said police are charging the 18-year-old student with filing a false police report.
The young woman filed a police report Wednesday claiming two white males approached her near the campus, in the 100 block of Smith Street, around 11 a.m.
She also claimed one of the males was wearing a “Trump” hat and they both yelled racial obscenities at her, police said.
As police began to investigate the student’s claims they did not locate any witnesses or surveillance video to corroborate her story

Veterans Day, 2016

VetsDay2016

Who Are These 'Veterans' Who Get Their Own Special Day? . . . "There are no “jumpin’ junkies” in this military, no one who whines that their daddy couldn’t buy them a deferment or the stupid doctor said their back was just fine.  You can actually trust the man on your right and your left to save your life just as you would theirs. No fragging, no divide between the Harvard dropout and the poverty-hobbled the-Army-or-jail enlistee. 
"But along the way we have lost that great leveler that crossed class, racial, and economic boundaries.  We veterans learned so much from each other and it wasn’t always about military skills.  We learned how other people lived, what they thought and, often, what it was in their upbringing that caused them to think and talk and act in a way somewhat different from the way we were brought up." . . .

Hillary was crying inconsolably once she lost to Trump and blamed Comey and Obama

EarToRail

Rich Lowry  "Hillary Clinton “couldn’t stop crying” once she learned of her loss to Donald Trump on Tuesday, best-selling conservative author Ed Klein told Newsmax TV on Wednesday.
“About 6:30 this morning she called an old friend,” he began on “The Steve Malzberg Show” in an interview. “She was crying, inconsolably.
“She couldn’t stop crying.
“Her friend said — her female friend from way, way, back — said that it was even hard to understand what she was saying, she was crying so hard.
“This is Hillary we’re talking about,” Klein said.
“Eventually,” he continued, “her friend said she could make out that she was blaming James Comey, the director of the FBI, for her loss — and this I don’t understand exactly — and the president of the United States for not doing enough.”
Klein said his source then asked further about President Barack Obama.
“She said: ‘Well, she felt, Hillary felt, that the president could have stopped Comey a long time ago, because that’s what [former President] Bill [Clinton] said.”
You know I wanted Hillary over Trump but she really has no one to blame but herself. She was way too scripted and entitled. She hid herself for way too long and she just wasn’t likeable. Plus she had no message as to why we should support her. It was always more Obama and Trump is evil. Her campaign staff imo really dropped the ball."
