rehajm said...: Our ruling class is disgusting. I always suspected so many of the supposedly unsolvable problems government claims to address are perpetuated by bad policy. Trump showed simple policy tweaks unleash the power of individuals pursuing their self interest. Now we have to stress about returning to rule of law…; 11/5/24, 6:47 AM
Dave Begley said...: Best commercial ever!; 11/5/24, 6:52 AM
wendybar said...: And watch Megan Kelly's speech at the Trump rally last night. She was on fire!!!

Political Junkie said...: Me too. 1st time DJT voter. The ruling class, IMO, is destroying our country.; 11/5/24, 7:02 AM
Political Junkie said...: Megyn was great. Dana Bash's (CNN) reaction to Megyn speaking at DJT rally was spooky to watch. John King, her ex husband, is on the panel just to Dana's left. Watch him in the clip. Quite funny.; 11/5/24, 7:04 AM
Oh Yea said...: If we were a true democracy, would we have a ruling class of people?; 11/5/24, 7:05 AM
tim in vermont said...: He's right. The Democrats built their party on respect and support for the working class, and had a lot of sympathy for the slogan "Workers of the World Unite," but then when the workers did unite, like in Canada over forced vaccinations with an experimental drug, the workers were called fascists, one waitress in Canada gave $15 to the truckers' protest and her bank account was frozen. Some unidentified person waves a swastika at a protest there, and that is license to brink down the fist of the state, and then at trial, when the defense demands that this person be named, Trudeau says that the man waving the Nazi flag can't be named, "for national security reasons."

They like the working class in theory, but the reality is that our ruling elite is disgusted by them and uses their control of the media to create fear of working people.; 11/5/24, 7:07 AM
Big Mike said...: The main thing I wan to know is whether the passing of Election Day will mean that FEMA will finally bestir itself to assist the people in the very rural areas of western North Carolina. Recall that famous Democrat strategist David Axelrod said that cleanup efforts should focus of Asheville, a blue wart in a sea of red, and deliberately neglect the back country, making it that much more difficult for the people living in the hills and hollers to vote. And I understand that this is indeed what base been happening since Helene.

tim in vermont said...: I should have bolded the whole thing: "the man waving the Nazi flag can't be named, "for national security reasons."; 11/5/24, 7:08 AM
Jersey Fled said...: Well done Tucker; 11/5/24, 7:13 AM
HT said...: Aren't ruling classes by definition horrible and disgusting? Can't people just realize that nothing's perfect, as I've heard Amy Wax say, life is hard, and move on and deal with it? If he wins, I'll be ok with it - better than last time. Crime is bad, I have some hopes with him about that. Ukraine - I like that he thinks it was a mistake, but Mearsheimer has already disabused me of any notion that he could actually effectuate any change there.

But if he loses, will he be copacetic? Will yall? Or will it be non-stop whining and feeling victimized?; 11/5/24, 7:18 AM
Breezy said...: Hear hear!

One thing that gives me more hope of success this week is all the smart, accomplished, eloquent, and committed people speaking up on our behalf. If s*t happens, the backlash will be much more forceful than in 2020.; 11/5/24, 7:22 AM

Eric the Fruit Bat said...: Oh, I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused, but I'm not much amused so maybe I should work on a different approach.; 11/5/24, 7:51 AM
tim in vermont said...: Hillary Clinton is still claiming that the Russians stole her precious, and you still believe it.; 11/5/24, 7:55 AM

Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: Vote for Cory and the squirrel.

F the left. They are very bad people.; 11/5/24, 7:58 AM
Limited blogger said...: The angels wanna wear your red shoes?; 11/5/24, 8:02 AM
Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: I still find it astonishing that the left got away with hiring a paid patsy to kill Trump - and an innocent man was killed in the process. Media are silent - all while they call him and his supporters Nazis. LEFT'S PAID PATSY WAS IN A BLACKROCK AD.; 11/5/24, 8:03 AM
Former Illinois resident said...: What's happened in western North Carolina is a travesty, and NC doesn't have the organized hurricane response team that Florida has, nor equivalent of its proactive governor. No surprise Axelrod encouraged FEMA to concentrate on Asheville, the progressive-liberal bastion that it is; won't be surprised if those progressives now abandon their residency in Asheville area for a safer locale with fewer Blue City problems.; 11/5/24, 8:09 AM
Aggie said...: You'd have to qualify that by providing us with a definition of 'losing'. Last time, the definition of 'losing' meant 'losing, but we cant prove it reliably and don't care to anyway, so Shut Up while we proceed to prosecute you with scurrilous charges until the end of time - or money.'; 11/5/24, 8:09 AM
Former Illinois resident said...: Trump's whining would still be less destructive than the rioting in Blue States and Blue Cities if Trump wins. Violence is far more a progressive-liberal thing.; 11/5/24, 8:10 AM
Jamie said...: From your lips to God's ears.; 11/5/24, 8:16 AM
Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: Trump assassin/patsy in Butler PA - Isn't it wild the democrat media don't interview his parents? or anyone who knew him?; 11/5/24, 8:21 AM
RCOCEAN II said...: Yeah, its been a sad and disillusioning time for me since Trump got elected in November 2016. I just assumed the elite would respect the will of the american people and address their concerns regarding illegal immigration and open borders, useless foreign wars, bad trade deals, and the stirring up of racial hatred.

Instead, they did the opposite. They refused to treat Trump as legitimate President. Broke every norm and traditon, and carried on a 24/7/365 campaign to destroy him and block any of his agenda from passing. And Biden has continued that policy.

They are the masters. They rule. We are here to obey. That is their view of America. And the Dumbshit Democat voters watch their Oprah and TV shows and applaud.; 11/5/24, 8:35 AM
Freder Frederson said...: I will be fine with him losing, *after* all of the issues have been fairly adjudicated according the Constitution, but not before then. I won't simply accept counters in Georgia lying about a plumbing problem and requiring the Republican scrutineers to leave the building, turning off the official cameras, then, not realizing that the arena they were in had cameras of its own, getting caught on video pulling boxes of ballots out from under tables and counting them with the scrutineers gone and the cameras off.

Propagating this lie cost Rudy Guiliani $147 million and his law license. You should consider yourself lucky that you just spread these lies on Althouse's blog, otherwise they might be coming for your house too.; 11/5/24, 8:39 AM
mikee said...: The ruling class has always been vile. See The Wizard of Id cartoon, from the 1970s, where the king is informed, "The Peasants Are Revolting!" and the king replies only, "You can say that again."
https://www.amazon.com.au/Peasants-Are-Revolting-Brant-Parker/dp/0449124037

The point being that the elite have always hated and feared the rest of us.; 11/5/24, 8:40 AM
GrapeApe said...: While not likely since the educrats no longer actually teach anything more than indoctrination , it would be nice to see this election rebuke the left.; 11/5/24, 8:45 AM
Dude1394 said...: Republican poll watchers need to only be removed via handcuffs. No they yell! Fight! Fight! Fight!; 11/5/24, 8:47 AM
tim in vermont said...: If you are an "accelerationist," who gets your vote? My money on getting the whole rotten edifice to collapse the most quickly is on Harris, but Trump could drive them batshit crazy too, and force their hand on some disastrous decisions.

In my mind, the rot is already so bad that collapse is inevitable. It didn't have to be this way, but Biden has made so many disastrous decisions, wasting trillions we don't have on a manufactured "climate crisis," and committing us to an unwinnable war against half the world, when the half that's on our side doesn't even want to fight, and our demographic destruction by killing off the social norms that led to a society with healthy population growth.

If Joe Biden were a Chinese agent, paid to cripple the United States as a wold power, what would he do differently?; 11/5/24, 8:51 AM
mindnumbrobot said...: If anybody understands our ruling class, it's Tucker. He's been around those people his entire life.; 11/5/24, 8:53 AM
Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: Morning Joe's hysterical BS.; 11/5/24, 8:53 AM
mindnumbrobot said...: ...they might be coming for your house too.

Spoken like a true goose-stepper.; 11/5/24, 9:01 AM
tim in vermont said...: Well Freder, I deleted the post, because I see that my claim that the ballots were fraudulent is not supported by evidence, and the counters deny it, what I don't see addressed is why the cameras were turned off, and why the scrutineers were kicked out of the building, and only then the ballots were counted.; 11/5/24, 9:01 AM
tolkein said...: Freder, it wasn't a lie. I watched the whole saga, the lies about the leak. Maybe it couldn't be proved, and there were other factors in play, but they did throw the Republican scrutineers out because of a supposed leak. They did carry on counting, when they wren't supposed to. Maybe the ballots they were counting were for real, but the whole thing stank.; 11/5/24, 9:05 AM
NorthOfTheOneOhOne aka Doug Emhoff's Pimp Hand said...: Dana Bash has been on the verge of a nervous breakdown for a while now. If Trump wins I expect you won't see her on TV for a while.; 11/5/24, 9:05 AM
Rocco said...: Sydney
"Gotta agree 100%"

I vote to agree with you 100%. Of course, if I was in Detroit, I would vote to agree with you 29 x 100% = 2,900%; 11/5/24, 9:06 AM
Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: The legal warfare against Rudy is pure Soviet delight. Again- the modern corrupt democratic left live to punish and destroy.; 11/5/24, 9:07 AM
Rocco said...: Of course. We would simply get to vote on who our kings/queens are. Just like now.; 11/5/24, 9:10 AM
RCOCEAN II said...: "The ruling class has always been vile."

Wrong. Hand-waving and saying 'Its always been this way" is a get-out-of-jail-free card for our current ruling elite. They didn't act like this 30 or 50 years ago.; 11/5/24, 9:13 AM
HT said...: Right! And Tucker C. is in the ruling class. All his life.

Demagoguing.; 11/5/24, 9:13 AM
Dixcus said...: It is disgusting to me that the FBI hasn't arrested a SINGLE PEDOPHILE on Jeffrey Epstein's islands. They aren't even LOOKING for those people. Nobody is even under any investigation. He was put in prison for supplying underage girls. Gislane Maxwell also. So who were the Johns? They have videotape of the rapes of children and they're not arresting ANYBODY.

Our ruling class is disgusting.; 11/5/24, 9:14 AM
Dixcus said...: That's because the Nazi flag waver is a government intelligence agent. Same as the FBI moles that turned J6 into a riot.; 11/5/24, 9:16 AM
Dixcus said...: Democrats have sued to keep voters from being properly identified. How can we possibly believe ANY victory is decisive?; 11/5/24, 9:17 AM
who-knew said...: OMG, that's crazy. If there's any significant portion of the country who believe this BS we are in deeper trouble than I thought.; 11/5/24, 9:21 AM
pacwest said...: Nice sentiment, but:
1. Narrow margin
a. Trump wins = Burning and looting
b. Harris wins = Constant bitching
2. Wide margin
a. Trump wins = Burning and looting
b. Harris wins = Unhappy Republicans; 11/5/24, 9:23 AM
who-knew said...: Tucker's not wrong, here, This is long read but well worth the time:
