10:16 – The civil unrest and rioting have started, although so far they seem relatively restrained. Vandalism is rampant, some streets and highways have been blocked by rioters, a few police cars burned, and some isolated shootings. My guess is that riot organizers were caught unprepared by the Trump victory. It took them the better part of a day to get anything rolling, and even then it’s been limited to large cities. Maybe the special snowflakes, overwhelmingly girls and women, are too busy crying, wailing, pulling their hair, and gnashing their teeth. If someone is trying to get boots on the ground, millions of special snowflakes don’t give them much to work with, other than as cannon fodder.
The progs are claiming that Clinton won the election because she got more votes than Trump. That’s true, but only if you count the millions of votes that were cast by dead Democrats, illegal aliens, people who don’t exist, people who voted more than once, and others who were not actually entitled to vote. Without those votes, Trump would have had an overwhelming majority in the popular vote and probably more than 450 electoral votes.
The progs also claim that people with college degrees supported Clinton, implicitly and sometimes explicitly suggesting that smart people voted for Clinton and only stupid ones voted for Trump. It would be more accurate to say that people who underwent four years or more of progressive indoctrination tended to support Clinton. Not to mention that college degrees are by no means equal. My guess is that people who have college degrees in real disciplines like hard sciences and engineering–which is to say the really smart ones–broke strongly for Trump. The ones with degrees in non-rigorous non-disciplines like social “science” and education–which is to say the ones who are stupider than average–broke strongly for Clinton. Or, in short, smart people, whether or not they have a college degree, voted Trump. Morons voted for Clinton.
Barbara commented on her journal yesterday that she was very happy this election was over. The problem is, it’s not over. It’s just beginning. The progs haven’t given up. They never give up. The political ruling class–nearly all Democrat politicians, the vast majority of Republican politicians, Wall Street bankers, large corporations, and so on–and their underclass clients will fight tooth and nail to obstruct the new administration, and the prospect of violent civil unrest remains high for the foreseeable future. Stay prepared, and keep your powder dry. We’re in the very early stages of what may turn to be a violent civil war, if not a full-blown revolution.
It’s odd that anti-progressives are so happy that Trump won. Trump is, after all, what not long ago would have been considered a liberal Democrat. It’s come to this, that so many of us are happy that the President-elect is not as bad as he might have been. Not good, not even acceptable, just not as bad as he might have been.
So we’ll keep preparing here, in the expectation of bad (worse) things to come. Today, I’m going to order a propane cooktop to replace the electric cooktop.
There it is, more words of reason and probity and rectitude. As I said in reply, sort of, to Mr. Dave’s post dated yesterday, the war ain’t over by a long shot, get it? Hahaha.
I’d expect the professional agitators to get real busy now, working on more stuff besides blocking a few streets and lighting up cop cars. I’ll go out on a limb somewhat and predict that the commies are and will be hooking up with musloid scum in a united effort to destroy us and Western Civilization. They each figure that once they’ve enslaved or killed us off, they can then turn on the now-weakened ally.
But we’re only in the beginning stages, as RBT says. Stay tuned, sportsfans.

The area I live in bears out @RBT’s statement. Here in the Tri-Cities we have one of the largest concentrations of hard-science and engineering PhDs and Master Degrees in the world due to the activities of the Hanford Reservation. Unfortunately as Hanford is very very slowly winding down the influx of illegal immigrants from Oregon and California is turning our red more pink.
The local buttercups held a vigil last night. If anyone cares to read the article our paper has taken down their paywall from before the election to inauguration day.

The progs haven’t given up. They never give up.
I would posit this is because of the money behind them. Give Soros and a couple other billionaire commies one in the head, and these protests would dry up quickly.
Sure, Trump is what used to pass for a liberal Democrat, but, for me, it came down to a question of who I thought would be the adult about Russia.
During the final weeks of the campaign, it became obvious.
If you need more than a few boffo laughs, visit Real Clear Politics. They’ve posted a couple of video montages of SJWs crying, whining, bitching and threatening to kill themselves over tRump.
My favorite is some chick sitting on a couch, stuffing pizza in her gob. Every other word coming out of her piehole is fuck or Hitler. The LBGTQXYZ people are most funny, too.

How many were true locals in Richmond and how many came in from all over the Gorge including The Dalles and other Oregon towns?
When my CS Masters program at WSU Vancouver turned ugly, I gave serious thought to heading to the Tri Cities to finish the degree. I know there is campus out there to take care of Hanford, but my guess is that the buttercup count is lower than WSUV.
Anyone else notice the silence from Sharpless and Jackwagon? I guess they aren’t getting any bucks behind them. No trips lined up to the White House, either. They may be waiting for the next BLMer shot by a cop. When WHITEY! takes a mag from a cop…zzz zzz zzz.
@Greg Norton said: “When my CS Masters program at WSU Vancouver turned ugly, I gave serious thought to heading to the Tri Cities to finish the degree. I know there is campus out there to take care of Hanford, but my guess is that the buttercup count is lower than WSUV.”
I am sure it is, but not for long. WSU-TC has been building student housing after having none from its beginning to just a few years ago. Started out being just for “foreign students” but now being constructed for citizens and illegals. So just like everything here it is becoming a bastion of progressive liberal education to the extent that science and engineering degrees are no longer emphasized.
My son went to WSU-TC for his Mechanical Engineering Degree. When he was there all the instructors were gray-beard PhD career experienced engineers so he got a really good education as well as great intern work experience with aerospace companies like Boeing and Northrup Grumman. Unfortunately they have all passed on and the faculty at best has Masters and no real long term experience in the real world.
I have FNC on with the sound muted. They just showed the Obuttwad staff waiting for Trump to arrive at the Whitehouse. Every one is standing with arms folded and dour faced.
We have a long hard road ahead.
Keep your powder dry and your eyes and ears open.
BTW, Happy Birthday to the U.S. Marine Corps, Semper Fi
Trump is a populist anti-trade Republican. The second coming of Herbert Hoover. It is odd that the anti-progessives consider that progress. Because Herbert Hoover considered himself Progressive. .
Oh if only we could use angst and recrimination as a power source……
Yeah, wife gave me a dirty look over ‘wash my car with their tears’ comment. Gonna be spending the weekend with her family, and a week with MIL and FIL, both Mass. Liberals. Should be ‘boffo laffs’ as someone is wont to say….

added- I was gonna try and shoot today, but I think I’ll save the ammo for a range day next week. I’ll probably need some ‘noise therapy’ by then.

WSUV CS is a rotating door of new assistant professor PhDs hoping to get lucky with tenure. A handful of clinical professors and non-tenure track lecturers really provide the education behind the degree. Unfortunately, the grad students have to deal with the tenure politics, and only one tenure has ever been granted since the program started.

“Give Soros and a couple other billionaire commies one in the head, and these protests would dry up quickly.”
Why is that guy still taking up oxygen, anyway? Damn.
“…for me, it came down to a question of who I thought would be the adult about Russia.”
Ditto. That was my main consideration, but also which psychopath is more likely to leave my guns alone.
“They’ve posted a couple of video montages of SJWs crying, whining, bitching and threatening to kill themselves over tRump.”
Mostly seems to be college chicks. I would not care to be a student, grad student, TA, or faculty at all but a small handful of colleges in North Murka these days.
“They just showed the Obuttwad staff waiting for Trump to arrive at the Whitehouse. Every one is standing with arms folded and dour faced.”
I hope someone on his staff is taking names so those people can be utterly hounded out of any future gummint positions, totally and forever. At the LEAST.
“Happy Birthday to the U.S. Marine Corps, Semper Fi”
Right on! Semper Fi!
“…a week with MIL and FIL, both Mass. Liberals. Should be ‘boffo laffs’ as someone is wont to say….”
My condolences. There are a few surviving genuine conservatives down there; I know four of them personally (siblings). But they’re stranded and pretty much all alone.
“…I think I’ll save the ammo for a range day next week. I’ll probably need some ‘noise therapy’ by then.”
Good call.
I also hope the Trump people get in there and get an accurate inventory of all the IT hw and sw and apps and let’s not forget the silverware and note the condition of furniture, carpets, drapes and general infrastructure.
Saw a link to the (satire) twitter feed for the DPRK News Service. Very funny. Sample post-election tweets:
“New York estate of Clinton Oligarch Gang said to be aflame, as armed Clinton goons gun down hungry peasants seeking land for their families.”
“Foreign Ministry denies application for refugee status by U.S. celebrity eating contestant Lena Dunham, due to lack of ideological merit”
“Supreme Leader Kim Jong-Un delivers congratulations to Donald Trump on election, by telegram and by carrier pigeon.”
“Craven lizard-woman Hillary Clinton refuses to concede election, cynically plotting rebellion to avoid ride on Donkey of Shame.”
“Call for secession in US Massachusetts province hampered by lack of arms and military training, over-abundance of critical theory professors”
“United States Electrical College is anti-democratic sham which denigrates peoples vote in favor of physicists, engineers, and similar elites”
“United States media shocked to discover that braying she-ass Hillary Clinton is not universally loved outside United States media.”
https://twitter.com/DPRK_News
““Call for secession in US Massachusetts province hampered by lack of arms and military training, over-abundance of critical theory professors””
True also pretty much in other commie provinces, but MA and NJ and CA seem to have cornered the market. The part about the profs, in other words, is mos def NOT satire.
What is critical theory? In short, neo-Marxist bullshit. It goes under such monikers as “deconstruction,” “French feminist theory,” “new historical,” etc., etc. and the English faculties, usually radical fembat matriarchies, MAKE you take at least one “theory” course if you’re an English major or grad student. And THAT was going on 20-25 years ago. I even showed up for an English poetry class as an undergraduate at one point, and the radical old dyke bitch refused to admit me to the class. It is MUCH worse now. Now they probably WILL admit males if they’ve been castrated and they’ll have to wear dunce caps during the course and do menial cleanup tasks cheerfully. If they are “…meanwhile, wearing a little ol’ frown…” they’ll be flogged and burned at the stake.
Today, I’m going to order a propane cooktop to replace the electric cooktop.
Me too. Conventional or downdraft ? I am in the market for a Jenn-Air downdraft natural gas cooktop as soon as I get my impossibly large property taxes paid. $9K for my house and $15K for my commercial property. I have not even gotten the bills yet from Fort Bend County and the school district since they had to be recalculated due to the massive flooding we had in June.
People think that Texas is a low tax state. It is not.
Education and wisdom are two very different things. Both are learned, but only the former can be taught. I’m much better in the education department than the wisdom department, and I only have a Bachelor’s degree. Which obviously isn’t good enough since I’ve not been a Bachelor for almost a decade. I really started developing wisdom the time my wife was in the hospital and said she was going to throw up. And we find out why they let clueless buffoons like me in the delivery room. That is to hold the baby when everyone else in the room is busy.
All I have is an 8th-grade education. I guess that’s why I voted for Trump.
I have a 16 year education, went through the 8th grade twice.
Another of Trump’s core constituency, I see.
Indeed, the uneducated, non-college, knuckle dragging illiterate.
As I’ve said before, I work with some very smart people with hard science degrees and the great majority of them (men and women) were near tears yesterday. I’m being a bit marginalized right now since I had the temerity to say “I don’t think it’s going to be as bad as you think”. One women then blurted out “typical white male thinking”. The odd part of that is, around here, my statement makes me very atypical.
Ideology and partisanship win out over intelligence any day. This is Massachusetts and the indoctrination to Marxism starts early. The indoctrination works very, very well but, for some unknown reason, with me it just didn’t gain a foothold.
I’ve always felt that if I grew up in Soviet Russia or Maoist China I would have never made it alive out of the reeducation camp. Something in me seems to always resist the collective in favor of the individual.
It’s genetic.
I think Mr. JLP’s experience is mirrored in more than a few places. My MIL wants to move to Canada. I’m not packing for her is because my kids would be devastated. That, and she’s a practical, kind person I get along well with.
I try to look at things as dispassionately as possible. I frankly don’t care much for Trump. The only reason I support him is because, as Scott Adams points out, he’s the only change to the equation available. He’s a CHANCE of making a difference. He’s also more likely to put conservatives on the SC, which is the only chance of sustaining the constitution.
I am getting pretty sick of the wailing & gnashing of teeth.
One women then blurted out “typical white male thinking”. The odd part of that is, around here, my statement makes me very atypical.
I would file a report with HR. You know that she did.
My father in law threatened to move to Canada if Trump won. Wonder if my brother in law would like to join me in showing up at their place with a rental truck to move them.
I am getting pretty sick of the wailing & gnashing of teeth.
It is going to get louder. Soros has apparently invested $350 million in protests.
One women then blurted out “typical white male thinking”.
Had you said “typical black female thinking” you would be looking for a new job, probably in a different state. As Mr. Lynn stated, if I had been in your position I would have filed a complaint with human resources for race and gender discrimination. About time their rules they created were applied to the creators.
“file a report with HR.”
Nah, a real typical white male doesn’t give a F*** about what others think of him.
I can get away with saying some non-PC stuff since I have a reputation of being a harmless eccentric. As long as I let them say what they want I can get away with saying what I want (usually, I’m smart enough to not say everything that pops into my head).
The problem is that the first person to file a complaint gets the credibility. This applies in all situations nowadays. One of my neighbors got thrown down in his front yard by a female deputy. My neighbor had looked out in his backyard and seen a guy out there. He went out there and confronted him and told him to get out of his backyard. In his bathrobe and holding a tv remote control.
The other guy went home, called the cops, and said that my neighbor pointed a gun at him. My neighbor went out to get his newspaper, still in his bathrobe. The female deputy pulled up in her car, screamed at him to get down on his stomach, walked over and handcuffed him. She then starts to call in the arrest. My neighbors wife walks by the front window and sees the deputy standing over her handcuffed husband. She runs out and starts screaming what is going on. After 20 or 30 minutes, the deputy lets him loose. No apology, no nothing. No followup on the false report of a gun brandishment on HIS property.
Report all confrontations.
I am in the market for a Jenn-Air downdraft natural gas cooktop as soon as I get my impossibly large property taxes paid.
I had one. The downdraft was OK for general cooking, but didn’t work well for stovetop grilling or heavy sautes, even with a booster fan. Get an overhead hood if at all possible.
This wasn’t a confrontation, just an emotional response to my innocuous statement. HR is not and will not be involved.
Back from meeting with the state vets service officer; had to unload more swell memories from ‘Nam areas and situations I was in, and much worse later chit didn’t come up. So more filing papers with the VA and reopening tinnitus and TBI claims. I don’t care about whatever piddly monthly amount they’ll deign to send me, if they do; the main reason I’m going through all this is to get enough of a disability percentage so my wife can use the VA med system.
Picked up the mail on the way back and had a long chat with one of our local village characters who just lost his estranged wife; he had more intel for me on the local politics, the proposed marina dock, and his own state of mind going forward, etc.
One of wife’s checks came in and it’s gonna get spent ASAP for mortgage, heating oil delivery, utilities and phones, the accommodations and rental car for her next gig, and handing over more dough to Princess and MIL. Got told to let my credit cards hang for now. But come my next SS check and I’m gonna be holding back cash to keep on hand here for emergencies.
Another gorgeous sunset and eerie skies ahead, very windy, leaves blowing around like crazy. If the janitor is working inside the town hall later with some of the lights on, it looks like a medieval castle behind the shorn trees in front, at twilight; I gotta get a picture of it.
Sonnet LXXIII
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin’d choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou seest the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see’st the glowing of such fire
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed whereon it must expire
Consumed with that which it was nourish’d by.
This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long.

Mr. pcb_duffer, you should be ashamed of yourself for posting links to those macroaggressive images.
Keep up the good work!
There is a psychological term for how libs/progs/SJWs/FSA are reacting to Trump’s win. It’s called: CATASTROPHIZING
The number of sobbing, despondent, stunned, infuriated, etc. people is mind-boggling. Frankly, they should be embarrassed at their behavior over the last 36 hours. You lost an election. It happens. Man the fuck up (or, for the ladies, put your big girl underpants on).. Say what you want to about cons/neo-cons they didn’t react this way when they lost in 1992, 1996, 2008, or 2012.
“I found these on Scipio’s site, and had to share them.”
Shared even further. Shadenfreude is fun. Or, in plain modern English, gloating.
Wash my car with their tears. I probably don’t wanna use this stuff around here if I know what’s good for me.
“Say what you want to about cons/neo-cons they didn’t react this way when they lost…”
We have two different species of human being now, apparently. They’re all about feelz. Nothing else.

Just got back home. Spent a couple hours driving around, so I was listening to NPR and some lib prog shows on XM radio.
OH MY. Hosts repeating lies (and misquotes.) ON and on about the birther thing, never a mention that it started with BJ. Oh the wailing. One caller visited 20 dog walking clients and had to give 18 of them hugs. They were sitting home CRYING. Lots of talk of catharsis in shared misery. What a bunch of little pussies. I want to scream in their pasty neck bearded faces- NOW YOU KNOW HOW WE ALL FELT LAST TIME. Without all the weepiness of course. Lot of typical white male BS. Lot of discussion of Trump the warmonger, how we chose a racist billionaire landlord. LANDLORD? Never once crossed my mind. Talk about projection- I’m a loser in a minimal job in a shit hole city, and I hate my landlord cuz that greedy fucker wants a CHECK EVERY MONTH! Trump owns buildings so cue the evil villain Snidely Slumlord mustache twirl! How do these fuckers get out of bed every day?
They are not gonna play along. They will continue to escalate.

oh, and not one word about hiillarity’s crimes. NOT ONE.
“oh, and not one word about hiillarity’s crimes. NOT ONE.”
Those have already gone down the Memory Hole. Roger Stone’s book and the others will be deep-sixed and Amazon won’t carry it anymore. I just wonder what will happen to Comey. Probably pardons all around from Obola on his last week; you know, the traditional thing, where drug dealers, murderers, embezzlers, perverts, et. al., are given a clean slate so the outgoing Prez can collect something or other later, if he hasn’t already.
“They are not gonna play along. They will continue to escalate.”
Useful idiots for the professional commies. I’m wondering who their hardcore street troops are gonna be; I assume recruits will be found among the BLM and La Raza crowds. It’s instructive and interesting to watch the videos of these “uprisings” and pick out the ringleaders. It’d be even more interesting if a decent sniper picked them out. That day may be coming.
I just wonder what will happen to Comey.
Who? zzz zzz zzz
Today’s Lucky Gunner post reminded me about something my “armorer” suggested for my Wife and she likes, the low recoil wadcutter round. She also likes that the hole in the target is bigger 😆
http://www.luckygunner.com/lounge/wadcutter-ammo-self-defense/
She and I are still doing weekly sessions at the range where she practices loading as well as shooting. With the wadcutter rounds she is able to handle my larger pistols. She still can’t make up her mind on a carry weapon. Santa may have to help her out 😉
Get her both.
I just wonder what will happen to Comey.
That whole thing with Comey had a funny smell to it. When he reopened the investigation it felt like maybe he was getting back at HRC and his superiors that twisted his arm. Then it seemed like the next announcement was distancing himself again, maybe knowing full well he had gotten them back.
“…the low recoil wadcutter round. She also likes that the hole in the target is bigger…”
Way back in the day when I was working the cop jobs down in MA, we got el cheapo boxes of wadcutter rounds to practice with before having to do the annual qualification thing, and we also got them for just plain ol’ fun plinking out at semi-abandoned quarries and sand-and-gravel pits. They do make nice holes in paper targets.
“She still can’t make up her mind on a carry weapon.”
Let her take her time. It’s an investment, not only financial but for survival. It’s what fits her hand and motions the best, and that SHE is most comfortable with.
“That whole thing with Comey had a funny smell to it.”
Yeah, I found it VERY strange. The top friggin’ guy at the Feebies and he can’t find the stones for whatever reason to file against that bitch. I can’t even come close to fathoming what his reasoning was/is, other than note that he’s taken money from the Foundation and his brother does their taxes for them. I am just gonna figure that he hangs on until Obola or Trump dump him, and meanwhile Obola will simply pardon a whole raft of criminal scum, including Cankles and her entourage.
But I have a bad record for predictions here, so I should probably leave off that sorta thing.
Predictions, wishes…feh.
Yeah.
And here’s a Brazile staffer bitching her out; there is zero hope for someone (apparently most of them) who think like this:
“…You are part of the problem,” he continued, blaming Brazile for clearing the path for Trump’s victory by siding with Clinton early on. “You and your friends will die of old age and I’m going to die from climate change. You and your friends let this happen, which is going to cut 40 years off my life expectancy.””
Oh, if only. And I suspect your life expectancy will be cut shorter than that because you, little snowflake, are too dumb to live…hey look! You’re MELTING!!!
It’s gonna be fun watching them slash and burn each other now.
Subtlety is apparently not in the SJWs’ vocabulary.
Another view.
I’m not losing my mind today. Pretty sure but ya never know for sure.
About 2pm central time, I checked mail and hit Facebook for a minute. I saw a blurb from CNN saying because “some state” finally reported everything, Trump had won the popular vote by 204,xxx. I didn’t follow the link because I figured it would be plastered all over later.
Can’t find it now. The best I can find is this:
http://www.chicksontheright.com/sorry-liberals-donald-trump-actually-won-popular-vote-updated/
Now that tRump has won the can find all those boxes of absentee ballots they lost earlier.
Yeah, absentee ballots, esp. from overseas military personnel. It’s easy to get steaks and ice cream over to their sites but a real bitch trying to get their votes back over here, I guess.
Plus all those dead people can go back to whatever they were doing before.
re gas prices: up near Albany NY, all the stations I saw had about an 8 cent spike sometime after Monday early morning, but by early Wednesday evening they were back to where they were before. No effects from pipeline mishaps or anything else.
re “grassroots” protests: yah, if not for the funding keeping the organizers “motivated” and the organizers keeping the stupid animals agitated, the lefty protests wouldn’t have been anywhere near as persistent for the past century. The Soviet Union did one hell of a job with that, and I’m speaking as a former trained insurrectionist. The Chinese, various somewhat-independent commies, and the post-Soviet Russians are keeping it going, but the USSR set the standard they all aspire to.
“…You are part of the problem,” he continued, blaming Brazile for clearing the path for Trump’s victory by siding with Clinton early on. “You and your friends will die of old age and I’m going to die from climate change. You and your friends let this happen, which is going to cut 40 years off my life expectancy.””
Oh, if only. And I suspect your life expectancy will be cut shorter than that because you, little snowflake, are too dumb to live…hey look! You’re MELTING!!!
Oh my goodness, are we going to be lucky enough for all the snowflakes to melt ? Please, God, please !
“How Trump Could Walk Away From Decades of Climate Deals”
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-11-10/how-donald-trump-could-walk-away-from-decades-of-climate-deals
“It took more than two decades for nations around the world to forge an agreement to save the planet from global warming. In one year, Donald Trump could leave it in tatters.”
Wow, talk about a boost to the economy !
And none of these climate deals have passed the Senate as required by the Constitution. None !
“…and I’m speaking as a former trained insurrectionist.”
And I was trained and drilled for a while as a counter-sniper against insurrectionist snipers. But we woulda been on the same side….I think….
WRT vote total: It was Arizona that finally declared for Trump. All I could find was that he got 11 electoral votes.
I find it amazing that the sites you would expect to have up-to-date vote totals do not have anything definitive after early 10/9. Again I reiterate that this just shows that the fix was in and the fix did not work but they are still trying.
Minnesota and New Hampshire have still not declared. The only thing that New Hampshire has declared is that Hassan (D) beat Ayotte (R) in the Senate race.
Edit: just did another run through all the news sites in my RSS Reader. The only thing that came up was that secession groups in California and Oregon are moving full steam ahead. Good riddance.
Trump is going to have to build a bigger wall.
You’d hope so, but I don’t have a whole lot of faith in the competence and honesty of the US State Dept, various US TLAs, and the TLAs of our nominal allies.
Hell, the one time I came under artillery fire, it was either American or South Korean artillery, and that was when we were openly tooling around in tracked vehicles. (Actually, we’d stopped tooling around and were setting up the battalion operations center, but the point is we weren’t sneaking someplace we weren’t supposed to be.)
DadCooks, keep in mind that Minnesota took weeks, back in 2008, to find enough ballots to put Franken into the Senate. They’re obviously not going to hurry their vote rigging just because you’re impatient.
Michigan is still not counted. Trump has 11,000 votes more than Hillary with more than five million votes counted so far.
https://www.google.com/search?q=trump+vote&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#eob=enn/p/mi/0/0///////////
I read another article that said there are another 8 to 10 million votes to be counted still which will put this election at 135 million votes.
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/442086/donald-trumps-vote-totals-are-higher-we-think
WRT secession I’m sure most here saw the map link posted yesterday by Nick
https://mishgea.files.wordpress.com/2016/11/geographic-landslide1.png
Look at the pacific coast states and see how much is red. Oregon is only blue in Eugene, Salem and Portland. (I don’t know their counties)
The oddest to me was seeing Fresno county (right in the middle) coming up blue. Tulare, Kings and Kern still red. Also Orange county and some of the desert areas went blue. Orange county! It can only show what the la raza invasion has done.
ALL HAIL PACIFICA!
Think the media outlets are getting pressure?
Trump says ‘professional agitators’ and they clearly are, with pre-printed signs and socialist orgs behind them. Site swaps his word order, leading with ‘unfair’ which has a totally different tone than his actual tweet.
Photos yesterday showed all the pre-printed signs, AnswerCoalition, SocialistAlternative, today’s pics focus on hand written signs.
Beaten photo journo blames ‘anarchists in masks’, mayor blames ‘imported anarchists’ but they only get mentioned in quotes buried in the text.
It LOOKS like the media is including the pix and direct quotes, while slanting the overall article to discredit or minimize that. CYA? Sneaky revolt? Two faced lying POSs?
No pix from tonight yet.
Oh, and the beaten journo article mentions “buildings set alight”. Haven’t seen that elsewhere…..

And I’ll note that the attacks on Trump supporters have started.
Man wearing hat on subway.
Man beaten by group of blacks outside.
Schoolgirl beaten at school.
Kid in Stafford TX school.
and there must be a couple I missed.

While on the other side, the girl that was “robbed” and “had hajib violently ripped off” has already recanted.
The australians are doing very good and fair coverage of the election, and are still updating their map.

Another awesome fulfilling day watching Libturdians melt down. I think tRump has been called Hitler more times than Hitler! I’m also loving the Dumbocrats blaming each other. Please put up Warren in 2020.
trRump 2020!
Rachel Madcow is spinning the story that the Rooskies announced they were in touch with the tRump campaign all along. Therefore, using her superdoosh powers, we should just accept that, and that’s why Cankles lost. There is no end to the Libturdian butt hurt. I think all the libturd shows are going to tank.
The latest Prog to defect after Trump’s win: John Kerry.

The Constitution? What’s that?

There’s an upside to that. Several…
The Dems will be out of thw WH for decades without the west coast’s gazillion EC votes, and Californicators will find it harder to move to Texas and contaminate the voting pool there.
Let’s hope Mass, RI, Conn and NY join them.
The Hildebeast lost – it’s the white wimminz fault!

I think it’s interesting that Trump only got 58% of the white vote instead of 59% like Romney and still won. Which is not the really interesting part. Apparently blacks and hispanics did not turn out for Hillary in the numbers they turned out for Obama, and also it appears Trump did at least as well (if not better) with blacks and hispanics than Romney.
As I’ve been saying for a long time, this election wasn’t about white-vs.-minority or Democrat-vs.-Republican or any of the other artificial groupings that the media pushes. This election was about Normals-vs.-progs. There are millions and millions of Blacks, Hispanics, Democrats, Gays, Atheists, etc. etc. out there who are as disgusted as any of us are about what’s been going on. They’re Normals and, like us, even if they didn’t particularly like Trump, they voted the Normal ticket.
As for Lurch in Antarctica, I wonder how much that boondoggle cost the American taxpayer. Does anybody believe he went there for Climate Ejaculation viewing? This was nothing more than a bucket list check off. He can now proudly screech “I’m better than Al Gore, so come worship me instead.” Flights, security, training, equipping, etc. This has got to cost millions of dollars. Lurch’s last rape of the taxpayer before he gets the boot.
I am in the market for a Jenn-Air downdraft natural gas cooktop as soon as I get my impossibly large property taxes paid.
I had one. The downdraft was OK for general cooking, but didn’t work well for stovetop grilling or heavy sautes, even with a booster fan. Get an overhead hood if at all possible.
I have an electric Jenn-Air downdraft cooktop right now. So the natural gas version should be a slide-in, right ? Here is a picture of my kitchen and cooktop.

I would prefer an overhead hood but that would require surgery on my cabinets.
And of course, the other problem is finding a Jenn-Air dealer out here in Fort Bend County. Sears Appliance stores no longer carry Jenn-Air.
EDIT: And this is moot for now anyway. I go the rest of my property tax bills and the commercial property tax was $1,000 higher than I estimated. So I am broke for quite a while. I am continuously amazed at my own incompetence nowadays.
