Victor Davis Hanson has a pretty good track record, and his take is generally insightful.

As I have stated, I think Trump is a truly awful human being but prefer the changes pointed out by VDH to anything proffered by the competition.

Trump is enough older than Hitler was, so he won't be viable for much longer.  I don't think he'll last into a 5th term.

The changes we are seeing could only come from a seriously disruptive actor, and Captain Chaos is the best we could do.

If the deficit could be addressed as Javier Milei seems to be doing in Argentina, I'd feel a little better.  As it is, it looks like we're fucked.

Maybe we could get to the onset of the next election and Trump could choke on a chicken bone.  Unfortunately, further progress would require selecting someone competent for the next go around, and we seem to weed out the competent right out of the gate.

VDH along with Thomas Sowell are a rare breed, in larger tragedy, Academia refusal to engage with such ideas, let alone promote them.An Ironic lack of Diversification of Ideas. Inclusion of Conservative ideals, ya right. What a joke. An exchange of Ideas...within our box.Hence, Fascism begins.

The younger generation thru covid; precisely our response to it,left indelibles, as do the other things. I remember going to a boogie, a covid party. What could we possibly gain..... LMAO More than you'll ever know.Kinda like jumping out of a perfectlly goood aero plane.lol I'll bet the useful geniuses still believe, it came from the wet market,from nature mother earth herself.  Thanks for the comical refresh... P1W. I thought it was hopeless.Good vibes me likes.Do you have a preference in tune or topics? 

Japan just concluded a study on excess death and their correlation to vaccine use,frequency and time frames.Interesting,but of course I found it by Video,link in the description.

 Like a good exit I think video allows for a better debrief.Rhetoric,the debate is never "Over".

His background posters thru the years are priceless

 I didn't vote Trump for his morals, I voted in spite of them.But, Could you imagine if our Border Czar had come to (p)ower.Big P little p lol

 Joe mention a fear on the left, that America will regress to a mystical form of Jingoism.

In contrast; walk into a National Museum and your family is greeted with the LGBTQ treatment and an exibition of the perceaved  proper attire.While Honest Abe's Hat that can be seen in the back, with the other SWM exhibits.

Albeit He has a point. {I might be on his Blueskies killfile,lol} in a return of the mystical,an inverted form of jingoism.Without a critique, a Pulitzer was born, CRT. We should flame all the "academics" Ivy's History depts. across the nation cowards, but then again,that's where fascism begins.lol

Sorry Bill I'd like to respond, but there is a detransitioner that is naming names.

Given that Twitter and our government and every conservative in the US sidestepped rape, felony convictions, pedophile support and outright fraud right before an election, I can't take you at all seriously.  There were no crimes found on the laptop.  Rape and falsifying business records ARE crimes.

Yep.  The American Revolution happened almost 250 years ago, during which we rejected the idea of a king.  Trump is leading a counterrevolution to that, to bring back a king.

 

Agreed.  You can't even tell Trump to stop giving aid and comfort to convicted pedophiles.  

 

Jack and twitter with Our intelligence sources and the Media told you it was Russian,a good way to build upon the Russian Collusion delusion lie.The same party created the Steele Dossier to illegally kneecap him, and why would the main conspirator Adam Shift need a Pardon.Then again, the media will call out voter Obstruction and interference.Resist obstruct Trump the Presidency by any means,at every turn,any cost.

In Barons eyes they tried to lock up his Dad up,at a concession meet  Baron walked over to Biden, he leaned in and said "It's on".While most Americans didn't think Biden had two brain cells,a spark appeared, those two words with a flash of comprehension.

Military minded mf like me are pissed in the lack of justice and the UCMJ as it relates to Gen.Miley 

Bill, Lawfare is a double edge sword,I'd be surprised if you have all them digits. The Prosecutor was just charged with mortgage fraud and the $500 fine and the Judge have been revoked. Sometimes an end, don't justify the means.

Our Counter Revolution has nothing to do with Kings everything to do with...wrong thread.

Hey but my daughter replied; "How sad it must be that you find yourself on the side supporting pedophilia." 

Girl !! Don't... Even Go There!! 

ROLMFAO

Just so we’re absolutely clear on this - making sure DEI principles are implemented in academia is crucial to stave off fascism?

Slightly better odds than having been to formal education.

Fun fact - Trump's campaign manager went to prison for colluding with a Russian agent.  But that would contradict your political agenda so you will likely not be able to acknowledge that.

Nothing illegal about facts.  (Unless you are Trump of course.)

Hell yes.  Protect the Constitution.

Bill, Lawfare is a double edge sword,I'd be surprised if you have all them digits. The Prosecutor was just charged with mortgage fraud 

And Trump raped a woman and committed 43 felonies.  If you think those two cases are similar - how sad for you.

Support it if you like.  Whatever floats your boat.

Why shouldn’t she go there? Because you have no comeback?

FYI the open trading in child abuse videos on Twitter has skyrocketed since Musk bought the platform. Because the richest man in the world is too greedy to spend any money on stopping it.

I read this with the view that it was still a bit alarmist and chicken little, but then on the other hand, it's pretty factual.

Hi livo,

I can only hope that is not the first time you have been aware of this.

first time I have come across that particular author but no - I am well aware of what has been going on.
My Texan cousins came to visit a couple months ago. Sadly the propaganda there must be very real - they don't like trump as a person, but believe he is improving the economy despite all evidence to the contrary.

Another GOP child abuser (although not in the normal sense).

https://www.wral.com/news/local/surry-board-elections-drug-ice-cream-wilmington-august-2025/

The chairman of the Surry County Board of Elections was charged after Wilmington police said they found evidence he placed illegal narcotics in his granddaughters' ice cream.

Yokeley was charged with contaminating food or drink with a controlled substance, felony possession of schedule 1 narcotics and felony child abuse, records show. He was transported to the New Hanover County Detention Center and posted a $100,000 secured bond.

In June, Yokeley, a Republican, was selected by State Auditor Dave Boliek to serve as chairman of the Surry County Board of Elections.

I mean sure. Of course a Trump supporter would idolise a foreign populist who treats the government as a bottomless piggy bank for his whole family’s personal benefit.

Speaking of using the state(taxpayers) as a piggy bank for personal gain.

First there was the Big Beautiful Bill to enrich the rich and tax the poor.

Then tariffs sold as "Liberation Day" to shift even more of the tax burden to the poor.

Now "Early this year, Steven Cook was a lawyer representing chemical companies suing to block a new rule that would force them to clean up pollution from “forever chemicals,” which are linked to low birthrates and cancer.

Now Mr. Cook is in a senior role at the Environmental Protection Agency, where he has proposed scrapping the same rule his former clients were challenging in court. His effort could shift cleanup costs away from polluters and onto taxpayers, according to internal E.P.A. documents reviewed by The New York Times."

Perhaps this should be in the "US is the laughing stock thread", but I digress.

Stick to your field. MDMA in administered in correct proportion to cocaine and cooled to within 12 degrees of 32 degrees Fahrenheit is very suspected of possibly countering defects in Mitochondria, even while you are still alive.

Some people are glad:

"The Trump administration is quietly dismantling efforts by the Internal Revenue Service to shut down a slew of aggressive tax shelters used by America’s biggest multinational companies and wealthiest people.

The administration, bowing to pressure from industry groups, right-wing activists and congressional Republicans, is quickly rolling back several I.R.S. law enforcement efforts, including one aimed at a lucrative tax shelter used by companies like Occidental Petroleum and AT&T.

The I.R.S. crackdown was projected to raise more than $100 billion over 10 years."

Below the US corruption ranking.
