Elon has certainly got the left melting down lol. I love that he’s entitled to say whatever he wants, as a private citizen, and has a reach of 200 million people. It’s great.

Not only is NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell & the NFL standing by Jay-Z — who has had a multi-million dollar contract to do the Super Bowl halftime show for years via his Roc Nation — amidst the allegations Jay-Z allegedly raped a 13-year-old girl. The NFL is adding insult to injury by having the child sex predator aka pedophile’s wife, Beyoncé, who happens to be a witch, perform for the NFL on Christmas Day — no less!

Note where I didn’t say allegedly. 👆🏻

Hey @nflcommish
— I’m not sure if you’re evil, tone deaf, retarded, blackmailed or all the above. Needless to say, this “puppy show” won’t end well for you or the NFL. The odds are not in your favor. 👎🏼

Good luck with the Satanic bullshit you continue to perpetuate on the good American people from elites who are involved in sex crimes against children — you’re going to need it.

I wish you well. 🤗

Can you tell us what is happening in Canada?

This week I felt a wave of fresh air blowing away anti American nationalism.

Hi there bert.....

I can only relay what items are see going on in the news.

- finding someone who still supports Trudeau (other than the uber lefties in the big cities) is about as easy as finding Bigfoot.

- our Conservative Party leader, Pierre Poilievre (pronounced polly-ev) is so far in the lead in the polls, that the other parties will be completely insignificant, even if they all joined together. I think Poilievre is up in the 60s, everyone else in the teen and single digits.

- it seems that as Trump humiliates Trudeau, more Canadians are opening their minds, thinking maybe this orange guy is not as bad as we thought.....but that’s a tough one, as our media up here is like CNN....they have firmly planted TDS.

-This tariff threat has brought forth a couple of more utter fools up here, Ontario’s Premier Doug Ford being one of them. Lolo threatens to cut off energy to America over the tariffs. Sure, Doug. You do that. Watch Canada lose their market faster than you can say Governor Trudeau.

As far as the scuttlebutt around town, I can’t provide much for you, as I don’t have a terribly large circle (intentionally lol). My immediate connections, consisting of family members, their extended families, a few friends, etc. is as follows....

-immediate family members (son, daughter, spouses, kids, and some extended family) have always hated Trudeau. Oh, except my son, years back, fell for the liberal crap but has made a hard turn right.....and I do mean hard lol. Can’t wait to get rid of him. Everyone else is a little on the wishy washy side. You can tell they do no deeper digging or listening to anything outside the msm. They aren’t raving Orange Man Bad card holders, but they’re more like passive anti-Trumpers.

Poilievre is signaling all the right things, with phrases such as “common sense”, and more recently, “Canada First”. He has to be careful how far he goes, as the TDS has been very strong up here. He’s balancing embracing the populist movement but trying not to sound like he’s a Trump followers.

Here’s his apple-crunching interview, which is quite fun. He handles the press very well. This one is 9 minutes, there’s a shorter one if you google.

Victor Daviis Hanson: What Was So Different This Time About Trump’s Election?

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4285528/posts

In the weeks before the 2016 Trump Electoral College victory, Donald Trump was polling between 35 and 40 percent.

He would average only about 41% approval over his tumultuous four-year tenure.

No one knows what lies ahead over the next four years. But for now, Trump already polls well over 50% approval.

His inauguration in a few weeks will likely not resemble Trump’s 2016 ceremony.

In the 2016-7 transition, Democratic-affiliated interests ran commercials urging electors to become “faithless,” and thus illegally to reject their states’ popular votes and instead elect the loser, Hillary Clinton.

Massive demonstrations met Trump on Inauguration Day.

In less than four months after assuming the presidency, Special Counsel Robert Mueller was appointed to investigate the hoax of Russian collusion.

That wasted 22-month, $40 million investigation found no collusion, but did derail the first two Trump years.

What followed the collusion ruse was a consistent effort to undermine the Trump presidency — two subsequent impeachments, the laptop “disinformation” hoax, the COVID-19 nationwide lockdown, and news suppression of any mention of the Chinese lab origin of the virus or questioning the closing of schools.

In the Trump administration’s last summer of 2020, 120 days of riot, arson, looting, assault, and murder followed, with the denouement of the January 6 turmoil.

In contrast, the 2024-5 Trump transition has all but assumed the presidency. Over 100 foreign leaders have elbowed each other to be invited to Mar-a-Lago or to phone in their congratulations to the newly elected Trump.

Remember that in 2016 the Left screamed “Logan Act” if a Trump transition appointee even talked with foreign officials.

So why is newly elected Trump a veritable cultural hero in 2024 in a fashion unimaginable eight years ago when the media had rendered him a near demon?

Oh, I forgot to say thank you for asking! I know Canada is not exactly on America’s mind, but things would be so much better is our countries got along well, traded fairly, and respected each other. I find Canada to be negative of America more out of jealousy than anything else perhaps. After my daughter’s stay in Florida, she had an interesting report.....she said all of the people were absolutely lovely and she and her husband just loved it there (Monticello). What she did notice, though, is that Americans knew nothing, and she said nothing, nada, zero about Canada. It was just some country nearby.....some of them had no idea we shared a border lol.

This is SO uplifting, I’m posting the rest of the article
- picking out the highlights because it’s a GREAT article, good to read when the political doldrums hit. Edited - it was all highlights, too good to cut. So long post ahead!

Victor Daviis Hanson: What Was So Different This Time About Trump’s Election?

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2024/12/20/what_was_so_different_this_time_about_trumps_election_152116.html

...continued from post above

So why is newly elected Trump a veritable cultural hero in 2024 in a fashion unimaginable eight years ago when the media had rendered him a near demon?

One, Trump is seen now as a welcome relief.

A departing and unpopular President Joe Biden leaves with about a 36% approval rating.

The prior Biden years are now seen as abnormal.

The Left’s cultural revolution championed fringe policies never quite seen before: destroying the border, welcoming in 12 million illegal aliens, nihilist critical race and legal theories, institutionalizing a third sex, and mandating woke/DEI quotas and indoctrination sessions.

Yet Biden had inherited from Trump a secure border, an economy rebounding after the COVID quarantines, 1.23% inflation, no wars abroad, and cheap energy.

Four years later, the outgoing Biden administration is widely unpopular. Almost every one of its policies polls before 50%.

In reaction, Trump promises not just to restore his first-term success, but to expand it.

Two, Trump personally remains transparent and energetic — eager to talk and meet anyone, anytime, and just about anywhere.

His energy offers a sharp contrast with the non-compos-mentis Biden. The change is welcomed by an electorate exhausted by the past four years of presidential stumbling, wandering, incoherence, mind-freezes, and angry, “get-off-my-grass” aged fragility.

Three, Trump is grudgingly admired, now even by some of his enemies who once sought but failed to destroy him.

He endured two impeachments, five civil and criminal court indictments, incessant lawfare, a 95% negative media coverage, attempts to remove him from states’ ballots, and two assassination attempts.

Yet all these unprecedented hostile efforts to end Trump may only have made him stronger — and more empathetic when seen as a target of increasingly fanatical enemies.

Four, Trump has expanded his MAGA base and permanently branded it as an ecumenical movement that welcomes shared class interests rather than the tired old tribal racial and ethnic chauvinism.

Trump also brought in disaffected Democrats, independents, and minorities in a way the Democrats could not with the evaporating “Never Trump” dead enders.

Trump’s veritable campaign menagerie of RFK, Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, Dana White, and Kid Rock made it impossible for the Left to demonize MAGA Republicans as right-wing aristocrats or laissez-fair capitalists.

Fifth, the endorsements of the Biden-Harris legacy media, calcified Hollywood endorsers, blowhard university faculties, and tech barons proved vastly overrated.

It was trumped by more popular and dynamic Internet influencers, podcasters, bloggers, and maverick entrepreneurs.

Sixth and finally, Trump himself proved more experienced, and more measured and reflective than in 2016. His team too was more disciplined and street smart, led by savvy chief of staff Susan Wiles.

The past year has seen truly pivotal moments of Trump as an everyman — posing for a mugshot after being railroaded by a weaponized lawfare indictment, serving MacDonald’s drive-up customers, riding in a garbage truck cab, raising his fist and yelling “fight, fight, fight” — and after nearing have his head blown off by a would-be assassin.

Add all of these once unimaginables up, and the people trusted more — and liked better — the Trump reboot than grouchy Biden or inane and inauthentic Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as their shared extremist agendas.

"Is Jeff’s home a trailer, like an RV? Or is it a mobile home?"

Your older single wides are generaly known as a trailer. They have very little insulation in them and if you don't skirt around the bottom they are very cold.

An RV is a something you pull around to go camping or site seeing.

A mobile home is more like a stick house but is sometimes refered to as a trailer.

TRAILER

Well thank you, Spunky!

I guess mine is a mobile home, seeing as that’s what they called it when they sold it. The insulation is good - it’s just like a house. Whenever I had a question for the manufacturer, their pat answer was that if you can do it in a house, then you’re fine (installing ceiling fans, for instance).

I imagine up here in Canada, they couldn’t even sell anything with inadequate insulation - they did have to pass Canadian building standards, so that’s a good thing.
