Donald Trump. He's back. After the most dramatic election cycle in modern American history, Trump has won a sweeping victory, moving every single state in America in his direction from 2020. He didn't just sweep the swing states. He only lost New Jersey by five points. He won Miami-Dade County in Florida -- the first Republican presidential candidate to win the county since George H.W. Bush in 1988. He won 45% of the Hispanic vote. In several of the key swing states, he broke 40% with the Jewish vote. He won north of 20% of the black male vote.Trump grew his coalition in every single area. Across the board. So, what happened?

HeelZup is nothing. She is the worst Presidential candidate in my memory. Worse than the HairSniffer, which is quite an accomplishment, to find someone worse than him. What Trump was really running against was the powerful and vicious Democ'RAT MACHINE!

He won because Harris received 12 million fewer votes than Biden received in 2020 when Biden was credited with 81 million votes. Trump received 74 million votes in 2020 and in 2024. This year Harris received 69 million votes. I think we know why Harris received substantially fewer votes than Biden.

How Trump Can Start Draining the Swamp 2 replies
Posted by Imright 11/9/2024 2:18:22 AM Post Reply
It took less than a day following Donald Trump’s decisive victory November 5 for Democrats to start talking about their plans to hamstring his incoming administration. There’s little Trump can do about third parties seeking to undermine his presidency aside from vigorously responding to them, and we can rest assured that he and his team will do just that. But efforts to derail Trump’s mandate aren’t limited to politicians in Albany or Sacramento. There are thousands of Biden administration appointees currently working in the Executive Branch, and Trump can and should get rid of every single one of them on January 20.

Sarah Palin made it quite clear who she wants to serve as Donald Trump's health secretary, showcasing a muscle-laden photo of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on her Instagram story. Palin, a conservative and Trump ally, posted the photo of Kennedy alongside a picture of Rachel Levine, the first transgender Assistant Secretary for Health. The photo was captioned '#winning' alongside a photo of Trump smiling and was set to the classic jock jam 'Tag Team (Whoop There it Is)' with a graphic noting 'Department of Health 2021' vs. 'Department of Health 2025.'

The election official overseeing voting in Arizona's most populous county told a friend last year that he was interested in pursuing a Senate run 'to make life hell for Kari [Lake]', according to court documents seen by DailyMail.com. As Maricopa County Recorder, Stephen Richer is in charge of the ballots that could decide whether Lake triumphs in her tight run for the Senate. But the comments will raise questions from allies of the conservative firebrand about whether he can be trusted to run a fair election. The explosive words come from the transcript of a June 21 deposition that will be included in papers to be filed Friday

A whistleblower has come forward with text messages revealing FEMA ordered relief workers to purposely skip over homes in Florida displaying Trump signs in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. According to internal messages obtained by The Daily Wire, FEMA discriminated against Trump supporters in need of help in the aftermath of the most recent hurricanes that passed through the Southeast. Hurricanes Helene and Milton slammed into Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and other states in September and October. Flooding and strong winds from the powerful storms caused a lot of damage in Florida and North Carolina.
Bob Casey still refuses to concede Pennsylvania
Senate race to Dave McCormick — while

PITTSBURGH and BETHLEHEM, Pa. — Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey is in denial after losing his race for a fourth term to Republican Senator-elect Dave McCormick, and clinging to a long-shot gamble that that outstanding ballots from Philadelphia can make up the roughly 36,000-votes he needs to win. The Casey team is banking on an increasingly narrow strategy of relying on outstanding provisional and military ballots from the City of Brotherly Love. That plan prompted McCormick’s campaign to sue the Philadelphia County Board of Elections to ensure that at least one Republican observes the vote-counting process and that their campaign can challenge provisional ballots in bulk, rather than individually.

You live, you learn. Finger-pointing has erupted over the Kamala Harris campaign blowing up to $20 million on swing-state concerts Monday night, hours before the VP’s spectacular election loss to Donald Trump — prompting concern that everyday staff and vendors won’t get paid amid reports the campaign is in debt by the same amount. Members of the defeated Harris team tell The Post that the concerts had a ruinous effect on the Democratic campaign’s coffers and that fact was no secret — with one planned performance by ’90s alt-rock goddess Alanis Morissette getting scrapped to save money.

Anti-Trump women have taken to social media to take a vow of abstinence — swearing off sex and dating men — after the former president became the president-elect once again on Tuesday. Apparently they see it as another way to “combat the patriarchy,” as leftists like to say. Many videos uploaded to TikTok shortly after the election referenced the “4B Movement,” a Korean radical feminist movement with tenets that go against dating men, marrying men, having sex with men, and having children.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre lost her temper and abruptly fled Thursday’s White House briefing after one brave reporter reminded the American people of the Biden-Harris regime’s malevolent pre-election message regarding President Trump. As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, a happy Joe Biden addressed Trump’s victory by congratulating him and assuring him of a peaceful transition of power. Biden also called on the country to lower the temperature and unite. “You can’t love your country only when you win. Something I hope we can do is see each other as fellow Americans. Bring down the temperature,” Biden said.

Grocery store owners clapped back after Whoopi Goldberg on ABC’s “The View” called them “pigs” over food inflation — and raised concerns that the name-calling could expose store owners to further violence, The Post has learned. The comedian claimed “the folks that own the groceries are pigs” as she blamed them for rising prices at supermarkets on the Thursday show — a day after Donald Trump won the presidential election by hammering on inflation in his campaign. “Your pocketbook is bad, not because the Bidens did anything. Not because the economy is bad. Your grocery bills are what they are because the folks that own the groceries are pigs,” Goldberg said

The brass on the seventh floor at FBI headquarters in Washington are walking around in a daze and wary of a housecleaning since President-elect Donald Trump won his reelection on Tuesday, according to inside sources.

How they let the standards slack on the fit test?” the first FBI source said, referring to the agency’s physical fitness requirements. “Everyone’s going to have a real problem when they’re running for the door.”

City Hall made the announcement Thursday, as Mayor Eric Adams has finally listened to critics of the Big Apple's migrant policies and Adams himself has become friendlier with Donald Trump, who plans massive reforms to the immigration system. William Fowler, a spokesperson for City Hall, says the program will expire at the end of the year after handing out a total of $3.2 million in cash value for 2,600 families to buy necessities.

It’s Friday, and they are still counting votes in Arizona, Nevada, and California. And the longer this inexplicable madness goes on, the less anyone should trust the results. Almost 11 million Americans cast their votes in Florida on Tuesday. The Sunshine State finished counting within a few hours. If the idiots who run Arizona’s elections ever do decide to finish counting, we’re talking at most about 3.5 million total votes. The people who ride the short bus to count votes in Nevada probably won’t hit 1.5 million total votes. Sure, California has millions more voters than Florida, but we are talking about California, progressive California, the home of Silicon Valley.
