Normalcy bias and denial, to put it kindly, but you could also just say, “stupid.”>>> I do have to remind myself that a lot of good people. Have Jobs. bosses that suck. make decent money. want their kids to do better. pay for what they think are good schools and don’t have the time to rationalize global political events. Don’t know who george soros is or that he intends to destroy everything he can. And they may have voted for biden cause he’s nice. Are they stupid? I’d like to think so but at the end of the day they are just busy with life. And i pray that God protects them from the evil that wants to really destroy them, their family and their life. And they may be sheep but God is the great Shepard.

This is Hanson’s best yet. We’re living in a “progressive” madhouse.

I remember DR Jill Biden trying to respond to all the Trump car and boat rallies with one for Dementia Joe.

Reminded me of a clown car at a circus.

Not an ‘entire nation’.

There is still a majority of sane people just keeping their heads down for now.

Re: "if 1 million Cubans boated to Miami, the Biden Administration would stop the influx"

That is delusional.

In 1960, Cuba was the most prosperous country in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The first wave of Cuban immigrants in 1960 were the business owners and the professional class. Most of them traced their ancestors to Europe. Most of them voted Republican.

The second wave of Cuban immigrants that began in 1980, and continues today, are working class. Most of them trace their ancestors to Africa and the Caribbean. Most of them vote Democrat.

That is delusional.

...and oh so consistent with the theme of the thread, which appears dead at 29 and IMHO ought never to die if the Republic is to survive.

Note to VDH...

Deep State isn’t insane.

It’s evil.

"Crime as Construct"..

Those folks coming across our southern border are among the most lawless and violent people in the world.. They live their entire lives behind walls, bars and concertina wire.. These people didn't make very good South Americans, why would we expect them to be any different in the North..?

And no matter what the media says, the vast majority of those coming in are young men of military age. They are a murderous people and will continue to be so...

Homicide rates by country... Check it out..!
