We’re getting down to the wire folks. In another five days, we’ll know who the next President of the United States is.
By the way, I’m not being cocky –I really mean that. Here’s my barometer: If the Mainstream Media keeps us up until 4:00am, then you know they’re scrambling for Kamala votes. You’ll actually be able to hear the printing machines going “whrrrr“.
If, on the other hand, they play it straight and call it at a decent hour, then we’ll have our next President. My guess, based on the polling data, the early votes and the betting markets, it’s going to be The Golden Don.
Mind you, I know we’re dealing with a deeply corrupt, wicked and resourceful Deep State. At this point, I would not be at all surprised if the present war in the Middle East expands into Jordan, Egypt or Syria. Nor would I be surprised if a “Russian” missile hits Kiev –Warsaw. It’s too late for a plague to hit us here in the States but these people are resourceful. Perhaps an “incident” will happen at a Red State polling station. If they can find a way to delay the Election they will. And if push comes to shove, they’ll delay the Inauguration.
They’re already talking about not certifying the election. Gail will have more to say about this soon. As for a terrorist incident that would disrupt the election, the FBI uncovered a plan by an Afghan jihadi who planned on blowing up a polling station in Oklahoma City on Election Day.
For now, I want to talk about the Deep State, the bureaucracy, the intelligentsia, and their handmaidens in the Democrat Party. Joe Biden the other day called Trump supporters “garbage.” It wasn’t out of context, he really said it.
The question is “why?”
Is it because he’s old and senile? Or is it because he’s old and doesn’t care what comes out of his mouth? Like many older people, he loses his filter. I see it in myself for that matter. (Gail on the other hand, maintains a poise and graciousness that is astonishing. As for myself, I can’t pull it off anymore.)
Or is it because —follow me here–he’s purposely sabotaging her campaign? I realize this is rather too tin-foil hatty for some of you (and it is), but that doesn’t mean that it’s not true. Perhaps it’s a mixture of his age plus resentment at the way the Democrat Politburo got rid of him?
Word on the street is that there’s bad blood between the Kamala campaign and the White House. Eventually, we’ll know the truth one way or the other.
As for myself, I want to go back to my original point: the term itself. Brethren, in case you didn’t know it, the Establishment, the Oligarchy, the Deep State, whatever you want to call it, really hates the American people. They’ve hated us for a long time. The Democrats’ hatred goes back to Chicago, 1968, when the commie intelligentsia realized that Joe Sixpack was too lower-class for their refined tastes.
The Republicans held off for quite a bit longer, I’d say for another forty years give or take. They showed their true colors in 2008, with John McCain, the Godfather of the Warfare State. His people threw the proto-populist Sarah Palin under the bus several days before Election Day. Since then, the Unipartyists within the GOP have gone out of their way to show their disdain for the American people. Trump was an anomaly, one they’ve been trying to derail ever since he came down the escalator in June of 2015.
So why am I for Trump? I know that they will do everything in their power to derail his second Administration. I also know that the United States is at a tipping point financially speaking. We’re actually spending more money on the interest of the National Debt than on the military. As for our military, it’s no match for a near-peer adversary. This is unsustainable.
I’m not sure that Trump can turn this around. But I’m 100% positive that nobody else can either. I’ll go farther than that: I fervently believe that there is nobody in the political class that wants to turn things around. Name your typical Democrat or Republican office-holder and try to convince me that they don’t like things the way they are. Nikki Haley? Endless war is a great way to get her husband out of the house. Gavin Newsom? He’s turned the Golden State into a dystopian hellscape. Nancy Pelosi? She’s too busy making millions from insider trading. Tom Cotton? He’s burning incense before an icon of Bibi Netanyahu.
The rot runs deep. Pastor John Hagee salivates at the idea of American soldiers dying in the Sand Box for “Izruhl.” Victoria Nuland would love to provoke a nuclear exchange with Russia.
Outside of Bobby Kennedy, Rand Paul, J D Vance, Thomas Massie and Tulsi Gabbard, I can’t name any political figures that give a flying fig about ordinary Americans. As for our captains of industry, the only one that comes to mind is Elon Musk. They’re all Trumpian populists, each in their own way. But it’s only Trump who could bring together such a diverse and patriotic group and put them to work for him.
If nothing else, Trump knows how to troll the Establishment. There is nothing worse for our “betters” for them to know that real Americans hold them in utter contempt. Trump is just the symptom. At the end of the day, it’s not him they hate —it’s us. They really do.
And. We. No. Longer. Care.
The garbage truck, the apron he donned at McDonald’s, sitting down with Joe Rogan for three solid hours, it’s all a masterclass in trolling.
For that alone, we should be grateful.
Lawrence Wheeler says
Best-selling author and winner of multiple Emmys and Edward R. Murrow awards while at CBS News, Sharyl Attkisson has the numbers from 2020. They document that there was egregious cheating during the election and none of it has been resolved. No matter who wins on Tuesday, his opponent may be forgiven for doubting the results of the election. This does not bode well for the tranquility of the body politic. God help us.

Three days out, time for final thoughts and predictions. First, while it still could go either way, I predict Harris wins:
Harris 276 – Trump 262 (essentially 2020 except Trump wins GA and AZ)
Harris 50.9%, Trump 47.1%
House – Single digit Dem majority
Senate – 51R – 49D/I
There will absolutely *be* a winner on Election Night, because all the votes will be in. It’s just very unlikely we will *know* who won on Election Night because it’s a close race and not all the votes will be counted yet. In some cases like WI and PA, this is partially because the GOP deliberately blocked efforts to enable early counting, instead forcing early votes/mail-in ballots to only be processed after voting has closed on Election Day. Because they know they can *exploit* that delay to sow doubt in the results. Some people just don’t want to be educated. For example, Milwaukee can give an advance heads up, which they have, that they anticipate counting to run to 2-3am. Doesn’t matter, it will still be treated and communicated as something nefarious by people know know better, who can safely trust that people that don’t know how it works will believe them because they are on their ‘side’.
Plenty of folks have been marinating in a closed right-wing media environment that claims there is no way Trump can legitimately lose. Which simply isn’t the case once you look at the fundamentals. One thing which remains to be seen is whether having previously underestimated Trump in two election cycles, pollsters have been overly cautious when modeling to try and avoid doing that again. Is this year a repeat of elements of 2012 and 2022? We’re about to find out.
Women voters are likely a prime factor in working out how the election results ended up being the way they did after the fact. The right overturning Roe before an election that would have allowed them to end American democracy might have turned out to be, well, a major strategic mistake. I’m already seeing figures on the right ‘joking’ about repealing the 19th. If Harris wins, don’t be surprised if ending the franchise of women ends up becoming a more formal goal of the right.
I will say, if Harris does have things really break her way (bigger than my prediction), then it might be pretty apparent she is going to win, but I will still be surprised if she has the margins where it gets called on Election Night. I don’t see a Trump overperformance moving the needle that far, a Trump win or a narrow Harris win will take a few days to be callable.

Here is an alternative opinion:
* Paul Craig Roberts | A Tsunami of Trump Votes *
https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2024/11/02/a-tsunami-of-trump-votes/
‘ The Democrats are set to steal the election. They have everything in place except enough votes to hide their theft.
Watch the video of the Trump Grand Finale, listen to the speeches by Robert Kennedy and Tucker Carlson. Marvel at the massive audience. It appears that Americans have cast off their insouciance and are going to take back their country from the two corrupt political parties, both of which have unleashed evil on America and the world.’

GCU Ultimate Ship The Second says
Addendum: If that Selzer poll is remotely close, I could be wrong that it isn’t callable on Election Night for Harris. I don’t want to put too much weight on any one thing, but if that was off by 5, and Trump only wins Iowa by 2, Harris probably takes GA, AZ and NC.

Seraphim says
I’ve been “studying” the Shroud for a few years now. By studying I mean “sitting at the feet” of very smart people, including the late great Barry Schwartz, who studied and photographed it first-hand in 1978. It’s an incredibly interesting subject. Personally, I believe it’s the real deal. I have a framed print of the face image in my bedroom. I have no problem with those who don’t believe. The great thing about the Shroud is we’re playing with house money. If it turns out to not be legit, it does nothing to discredit the death and resurrection of Christ. However, if it is legit, then non-Christians, and the atheist nay-sayers out there, have a real big problem.
Brendan says
“…playing with house money.”
An excellent metaphor!
Thank you for that.
Hilber Nelson says
That Trump supporters are now “garbage” is just the latest in a litany of increasingly incendiary mudslingings by the commie-captured Dem Party. My take is they are setting the table for “terrorists” should Hitler trounce Harris November 5 and her sore losers riot “to save democracy” from evil garbage man and his minions. It ain’t that much of a stretch to picture stop-at-nothing Dems refusing to certify Trump’s election on the pretext that he instigated the 2020 insurrection, and now the terrorist insurrection of 2024. Nor that the thousands of military aged men who have crossed our southern border (and no one knows where they are) are awaiting for the deep state’s orders to light the match.

‘ ABC affiliate WNEP-TV accidentally aired election results showing Vice President Kamala Harris winning Pennsylvania—just a week before Election Day.

Michael Martin says
I’ll go out on a limb and make my prediction. I will be delighted to be mistaken, and I hope I spend the rest of November eating crow. Nonetheless, here it goes …
(1) Trump will win the election by a fraud-proof majority. The Deep State Blob will pull every trick in the book. It won’t be enough. It will fail.
(2) Once the results are in, the Blob will unleash Antifa and the armed illegal immigrants to overturn the result.
(3) If that fails, they will declare martial law.
(4) If that fails, then they will start a nuclear war.
To repeat what I have said before, the Blob will never, ever relinquish power. Ever. Why? Because they can’t!
If Trump is actually inaugurated, most of the Blob will face criminal prosecution for war crimes, crimes against humanity (e.g., the COVID shots) and Treason against the United States (armed illegal immigrant invasion).
“United States Constitution, Article III, Section 3
“Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. ”
Most of the Blob will be “dancing Danny Deever” if Trump takes office, and they know it.
Besides, these psychopaths have the same attitudes as abusive husbands, who track down wives who flee from them and kill them. “If I can’t have this woman, nobody else can have her either!”
For the Blob, this translates to, “We refuse to live in a world we do not rule. If we can’t rule the world, we will destroy it instead.”
Again, I would love to be wrong, but that is how I see it.
Gail Sheppard says
Unfortunately, you may be right.
George Michalopulos says
Yes, Michael, as Sun Tzu said: “An evil man will burn his city down and rule over the ashes.”
Silver lining? We now know that we are ruled by kleptocrats. For those who want to know what a banana republic looks like, look no further.

Judge Andrew Napolitano has a different view to George:
*Tweedledee and Tweedledum*
https://judgenap.com/tweedledee-and-tweedledum/
” … Does it matter who is president? Oh, it does emotionally — but not constitutionally. Both Harris and Trump will kill innocents, borrow trillions and crush liberty just to please their supporters and stay in power. Where are you, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you. ”
Now, I don’t have a vote – so why should I care?
Because whoever wins might wipe us all out.
While I agree with much of what the Judge says,
in the final analysis George has the rights of it.
Trump will try to fix at least some of what is broken.
Kamala Harris (for her masters) will break more.
George Michalopulos says
I like and respect Judge Nap. That said, he’s a libertarian. They have no perspective. What’s more important: Illegal marijuana or auditing the Fed? When it comes to fighting the good fight, libertarians always take the easy way out.
Brendan says
It is interesting that the Judge frames it
in terms of emotion v the constitution
but without reference to practicality.
I would think that what concerns most people
is the practical effect the result will have
on their lives as they are lived.
