I've switched over to MSNBC to watch a Democrat meltdown. Unfortunately, Morning Joe is nowhere to be found. Mr. Maddow is already fighting back tears.

[King Kong]

Fox is reporting that people are beginning to trickle out of Kamala's election watch party.

That's what they're saying on News Max as well.  That they turned off the TV monitors and are just playing music now.

I remember in 2016 some of the news outlets CNN and MSNBC,  was about to break down and cry. Over much of us not trusting their reporting anymore, after the election results.

NewsMax has just called Trump the winner of the whole thing!

Trump's going to speak here shortly!

A comeback for the ages baby!

Where is Kamala's concession speech? Where are the concession posts by OSH, Vector, Ring'emUp, and SEKYFAN?

[Hoot Gibson]

I was told that this was an election watch party thread. I showed up. JetPilot showed up. King Kong showed up. I didn't see any of Kamala's loyal supporters. The party just wasn't the same without them. They must have retired early, like Kamala did.

The very respected Selzer poll with a shocker!!!


Harris  47% Trump  44%


IN IOWA!!!!!

BGR MAGA sympathizers, I love you,  but please, go early Monday morning and buy you a case of Keystone Light and a couple of bottles of Old Turkey because you're gonna need it come Tuesday. America is about to purge the country of the Orange Putin, once and for all.  Madame Vice President will be in excess of 300 electoral votes. If she claims the Blue Wall( Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania), as expected, and claims Georgia and North Carolina, she'll be at least at 302, imo.  But if she, in fact, pulls out a win in Iowa, it will be far worse for the Mango Mussolini. 

 Start drinking early on Tuesday, BGR Trumpers, because you'll want to be grotesquely drunk by the time the polls close here in KY. If you aren't much of a drinker, buy you a party size pack of chili cheese Fritos, a six pack of Mountain Dew Code Red and pass out watching internet porn before Harris' victory speech late in the evening. It's gonna be a tough night for you.

Not exactly the "happy ending" to the campaign that I was hoping to have to witness.  I hope your kids didn't have to see that on TV or their phones , BGR.

Where was the fake outrage when Biden was sniffing kids' hair and showering with his young daughter all those years? You got nothing.

Your candidate and his loser VP candidate sucks more than Story Daniels in her big 2016 blockbuster flick,  "2 Mouths to Feed."

---

If you haven't cast your ballot yet, there is still time to avoid being on the wrong side of history. This is my final plea to you, BGR friends. Either you love democracy or you don't, you sympathize with fascists, or you don't. Harrison Ford, thoughtfully, soberly, honestly, sums up how Old School feels about this election and its candidates. I think, Mr Ford makes the closing arguments  very well for America's First Prosecutor, and soon to be first female Chief Executive Officer of the United States of America. 

You must watch this if you are still wavering at all in your vote, Mr/Ms BGR.

I'm not interested in trolling or name calling.  However, THIS post should be very thought provoking to every American citizen.

"The very respected" institution that reported this poll, reported a manufactured lie.  Trump ended up winning Iowa by double digits.  To me, this is just an example of the main stream news media and their control over the information provided.

It's validation of why I don't watch the news anymore.

[SEKYFAN]

Where is Kamala's concession speech? Where are the concession posts by OSH, Vector, Ring'emUp, and SEKYFAN?

Sorry, I was in bed and didn't know the results until I got up about 5:30 this morning and saw an update on my phone.  I'm sure Harris will concede today, still waiting on the previous loser to concede though.

[TD Hounds]

Hoot I thought you predicting Trump to get 295 electoral votes was a little excessive, I understood your reasoning but I thought it was gonna be closer….You called it, looking like when all the states are eventually called Trump could potentially breach well over 300….Drill baby Drill

[Hoot Gibson]

I have never seen a worse campaign than the one that Kamala Harris' handlers have been running. Hopefully, there will be no more assassination attempts against Trump before he takes office.

Trump will win at least 312 electoral votes. New Hampshire, Virginia, New Mexico, Minnesota, and maybe Oregon are also in play. Kamala and Walls are the most erratic and desperate candidates I have ever seen.

Hoot I thought you predicting Trump to get 295 electoral votes was a little excessive, I understood your reasoning but I thought it was gonna be closer….You called it, looking like when all the states are eventually called Trump could potentially breach well over 300….Drill baby Drill

I raised my prediction to at least 312 votes
 I still have a shot.

It was really nice seeing Trump with his family and some supporters on stage together last night.  Especially after all Trump,  his family,  and supporters have been through of late.  Dana White was really fired up!

Most of my attention was directed in JD Vances direction.  I have a copy of his book.  I was just imagining how often he was thinking of his Grandma,  while he was up there on stage last night.  I know she was smiling down from above towards him.  

Vances Grandma told him once,  If anyone is going to make it,  it's you.  Might not be the exact words,  but something like that.  She saw the potential in him.  Probably even when he didn't believe in himself,  she did.  I don't think she'd be surprised at all,  to hear him announced as America's new VP.  

Sometimes all it takes,  is that one person believing in us, and that makes all the difference in the world.

Credit to Hoot. He nailed it.

[jetpilot]

Credit to Hoot. He nailed it.

Yes
So did 70+ million others

[Hoot Gibson]

Credit to Hoot. He nailed it.

That is assuming that Arizona and Nevada ever finish counting votes. It looks like Maricopa and Clark counties were prepared for a 2020-style finish.

Thankfully, most states improved their vote counting processes.

I just watched Allan Lichtman's meltdown following Trump's win. He missed his prediction so badly, maybe the media will stop treating his predictions seriously. I mean, is picking 9 of 11 elections that great? He thinks he is 10 for 11 because he claims Gore was robbed. 

Dr. Lichtman is grieving because he thinks young people are facing a dismal future because Trump won.

Dr. Lichtman is grieving because he thinks young people are facing a dismal future because Trump won.

Economists and investors believe Trump’s policies will be inflationary because tax cuts will likely force the federal government to issue more debt, Sturtevant noted. If that happens, the government will have to pay more to attract investors. His promises to enact tariffs on imported goods will also increase prices.

Young people likely are facing not what I would call a dismal future, but a difficult one financially if the Federal deficit continues to grow.  We may need someone with fiscal beliefs like Rand Paul to fix it, although time may be running out.

One day after Donald Trump’s election victory, investors sent bond yields sharply higher. The “Trump trade” is likely to keep rates for home loans rising, despite the Federal Reserve's Thursday rate cut, experts say.

Rates aren’t likely to reverse course any time soon, said Bright MLS Chief Economist Lisa Sturtevant in emailed comments.

“Trump’s fiscal policies can be expected to lead to rising and more unpredictable mortgage rates through the end of this year and into 2025,” she said. “Bond yields are rising because investors expect Trump’s proposed fiscal policies to widen the federal deficit and reverse progress on inflation.”

I'm sure that liberal Democrats are very concerned and pessimistic following Trump's resounding victory. I don't know if you're old enough to remember this country's struggle with inflation in the 70s and 80s, but it is not easy to bring it under control once it gains momentum. The economy was already slowing down before the election, but Kamala Harris' proposals to deal with inflation were idiotic.

I expect that people like you will attempt to blame the current state of the economy on Trump and then claim that his efforts to fix the problems that he will inherit are making things worse. 

Price gouging is a bogus issue in the grocery business. The sector has plenty of competition and profit margins are slim. Nixon tried freezing wages and prices and failed to bring inflation under control. 

Trump has proposed fighting inflation and declining real wages very much like Reagan did. Deregulate as much as possible and lower energy costs. Liberals ridiculed Reagan, but his approach worked. 

While you continue looking for reasons to justify your vote for the worst presidential candidate in history, I suggest that you honestly consider the chances that a candidate who spent more than a billion dollars on campaign ads, paid endorsements, celebrity appearances, and concerts, and still lost by a landslide margin would have succeeded by repeating Nixon's mistake with the economy.

I give you credit for persistence, but Trump has a plan that will be executed next year and he has smarter people than either of us advising him on the details.

1. So your not worried that the deficit is likely to increase substantially if taxes are cut?  Trump & Biden are the 2 worst Presidents at contributing to the deficit.
2. Your not concerned that eliminating taxes on tips, overtime and social security payments will not bankrupt the Social Security System much quicker than it's projected as of now.  How is that revenue that funds  social security going to be replaced? 

These are not my political views, I had serious questions how the Dems would do some of the things they promised without also skyrocketing the deficit.  These are the views of economist who made these statements after the election, so they are not really politically motivated as well.  

Trump's promises sound a whole lot like the Democratic playbook from the past, promise everything to everyone.  Instead of spend, spend and spend that the Dems favored, his is cut, cut and cut without any regard for the consequences for the average American. 

The deficit is getting out of control, from both Biden and Trump policies and it will bring our economy to it's knees eventually, although it may be 5-10 years down the road, so those two don't really care since they won't be around to face the music.  Someone has to have some fiscal responsibility and balance the dang budget, and I don't see a path towards that from what I have heard promised so far.

The deficit has been out of control for a very long time. Only one candidate promised to reduce spending by slashing government spending. You voted for a candidate who only promised more spending and who also promised to eliminate taxes on tops. It sounds disingenuous for a Kamala voter to sound so concerned about the deficit. She raised $1 billion dollars for her campaign and ended the campaign $20 million in debt. Do you really believe that there was any chance at all that the deficit would have been less under Harris than Trump?

I am very skeptical that either party has the political will to takes steps to stop interest on the national debt from crushing our economy. But I know beyond doubt that Elon Musk has an IQ that is at least double Kamala's IQ. I like the odds of him making a dent in the budget deficit over Kamala's chances. I'm not too confident that Congress will go along with all of the structural changes that Musk will recommend, but eliminating the Dept. of Education would be a great start.

It is hard for me to believe that anybody concerned with federal spending would vote for Kamala Harris.

I just checked the voting results for Fairfax County. My wife and I were on the losing side of every vote  - President, Senator, House, and bond issues. The margin was more than 2 to 1 on every vote. 

Fairfax County is blue than California. I am thinking about moving before the next election.

[SEKYFAN]

Eliminating the Dept of Education would also eliminate such things as Pell Grants, funding for kids in Special Education and the prevention of discrimination.

[Hoot Gibson]

That's not necessarily true. Trump can eliminate a cabinet level department and move programs that it deems desirable and worth keeping to other agencies. The reason for eliminating the Department of Education is to return control of public schools to states and reduce the destructive influence of the teacher unions.
