I find it very telling that the Kamala Harris campaign, which raised over a billion dollars- has finished in the red by 20 million! By comparison, the Trump campaign, which did not raise nearly that much money, still has tens of millions left! They have even offered to pay the deficit for the democrat candidate on her campaign to help unite the country.. I’m sure they won’t accept it. But, what is so telling is that this is an indication of how each of them would have run the country. I’m glad America made the right choice!
I suspect there was a lot of money (graft) spread around to various people, just because. She spent over a billion running 90 days (over $11,000,000 a day), and many of those days included the media asking where she was. Stories are she paid celebs, but I wonder how much her daughter made, or other family members, as “campaign staff” A lot of donators were shafted, deeply. But that has been the Dem way, enrich themselves on the backs of supporters. And they’re too, either blind or just plain dumb, to see.
Trump has officially offered the Dept. of Health and Human Services to RFK, Jr, a man with ZERO experience in health care and ZERO medical qualifications aside from having his brain eaten by worms.
I am pleased with the various nominations this time around. First term, his first nom was reince priebus, couldn’t get much worse. This time, first (or second) nom was Tom Homan, could get much better. I like DOGE, provided they stay on mission, without creep into other areas. I like Hegseth, but I have no idea of his suitability for the role, but I wouldn’t know for anybody, honestly. I am not sold, either way on the selection of Gaetz. Regardless of his character (he is in Congress, that denizen of thieves/scumbags), I cannot say he will stay focused and not seek retribution. I would have loved to have seen Mark Levin as AG, if his health would hold out, or any position honestly. Mostly glad that it is President Trump making these selections and not couldn’t-be-bothered-to-learn-even-the basics-of-a-topic harris. If he resets the power/size of government by even 30%, that would be a huge victory.
The ‘Trump is going to destroy the world!’ crowd now has their feathers all ruffled!
They ranted about leaving the country when they whined ‘Trump is going to destroy the country!’
Maybe now they should think about leaving the planet. Mars might be a suitable happy place for them.
