For Trump and his supporters, the protests and challenges to the Electoral College should be seen as another victory. Not only did they win, they are being heard—even in Brooklyn.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

That’s the money line!

America has had enough of the Saul Alinsky left.

We are putting the whole lot into the dust bin of history, where they belong,losers, silent and forgotten forever.

Never ever a more iconic tune. Living in the hometown of the band, it always causes a cheer wherever it is heard. None more regular than the beginning is piped out of the giant speakers at the Jaguars games.

I’ll bet it would even toast the cookies of liberals even more when they discover they got their name from their high school coach at Robert E. Lee High School.

Now when entering Alabama by road. The signs now say Welcome to Sweet Home Alabama.

For his part, Young would eventually agree that he had painted the South with too broad a brush. In his 2012 autobiography “Waging Heavy Peace,” Young would write, “My own song ‘Alabama’ richly deserved the shot Lynyrd Skynyrd gave me with their great record. I don’t like my words when I listen to it. They are accusatory and condescending, not fully thought out, and too easy to misconstrue.”

Such a rarity, an absolute unicorn. A leftist capable of introspection and seeing other points of view. I know what Neil Young is, but have always enjoyed his music, off-key warbling though it often can be. Now I know why.

It strikes me that Russia and America actually like each other in many ways.

I have never understood the appeal of Neil Young. Even before the political garbage I could not stand to listen to his nasal, whiny voice.

America has had it w/ the Saul Alinsky left. We are putting the losers into
the dust bin of history, where they belong......silent and forgotten forever.

The far-reaching motto of Trump's Brand New America.

And yet even in that he shies away from taking the responsibility for what he said. Look at it again - it’s a liberal non-apology apology. “I’m sorry you misunderstood what I said.”

It is. It reminds of the sort who "call the super" to fix burned out lightbulbs in their kitchens.

This election is ironic. Trump is a New Yorker to his bones, loves his conspicuous, garish displays of wealth. He was embraced and carried to victory by rural and suburban Americans from 'flyover country'. Hildebeeste is a deracinated arrogant elitist, no more a New Yorker than an Arkansan or an Illinoisian or even much of an American. Her support was primarily from the densest cities.

Trump stands as a reminder that New Yorkers aren't all like the effete parlor-pink snob who wrote this piece. The "super" who shows up to change his (?) lightbulb is also a New Yorker.
