Yes. I know Mike Rogers is doing really well for Senate. I see more signs for Harris, but I do not think it means that much, as Trump people are still careful about their outward preference. Trump and Vance are here a lot. More Muslims than I imagined are for Trump. Many are small businessmen.
The upper half of the lower peninsula is thoroughly Trump, so I’d have to imagine the UP is at least as devoted. Marquette county was the only one that went for Biden last time, iirc, and that was because of the college.
Michigan is going to depend on how many people in the SE cant lie to themselves anymore.
negative. never avoid. stay on the offensive. move the ball and dominate the message. No wars started under Trump. Peace in the Middle East. Simple and to the point.
the message is simple: Trump will fix it.
Harris bozo brigade have only defense as they try stay relevant playing headlines with faux outrage. desperate. desperate desperate killer kamala. See how they misconstrued the “Liz Cheney., ..would never start wars., …if she had to face consequences?” Do you see how Trump handled it? Blew it out of the water. Harris campaign people really aren't very smart. But they are desperate.
Never avoid because that's risk-averse -Trump is opposite. And why he's a success. He takes risk and it's authentic and imperfect and what we want from a leader. Kamala is the opposite, ie "word salad" lol take it easy!!
Debbie Dingell, , is on FoxNews right now. She is asked about her statement that Trump would put Arab of Americans in internment camps as well as her. She said that some very important people had told her she ought to be very careful.
Sasha, I absolutely love your sobering analysis of the misguided left and the corrupt machine of elitist snobs behind it. We are so blessed to have you in our camp of liberty loving patriots who love our country and yearn for a return to sanity and a media who reports truth.
You are. I have it on good authority that the sins of the current regime have reached unto the ears of the most high and He has taken as his cudgel, the Great Donald and shalt smite those who deal in wicked behavior; who imagine they can sin under the cover of darkness: the Lord has yet His 144,000 that have not kneeled to Baal and the people shall back them, the rank and file military with officers sworn to protect the constitution shall back them, those that serve in the righteousness of the Lord’s vengeance; all shall arise in unity of heart and purpose, united by the Holy Spirit. And satan’s friends will not win the day.
I was glad to see that Batya Ungar-Sargon, who is an expert on class, just came out today endorsing Trump. Not that it will make a difference. But what she says about class in America is of paramount and disturbing importance. The facts on how damaging (low-skilled) immigration is are even worse than I had thought. There is a link with criminality among young Black males.
Nah, let’s give Native American Spirit some credit here. If we tucked in and defended our shoreline Turtle Island we’d be pretty good.
We certainly have enough arable land and resources to make a go of it, if we just tell the rest of the world to screw off and deal with their own problems, eh?
So fundamentally it’s just a game to us. There’s a lot of aficionados of team Israel in the country and that has had some effect, a big drain on our treasury for one, a deal of moral opposition to genocidal geopolitics for another, and coupled with lots of eager proponents of conflict who need a worthy enemy and are focused on Russia, combine to form a fortuitous stew of military industrial employers and unionized labor all throughout the tribe - SAG, Teamsters, publicly funded pension behemoths and all.
It’s all a bit overwhelming. I’m sorta glad Trump has Vance cuz this whole shmiel is gonna take some figger’n
"How does that square with leftists who want to protect animals?"
The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.
They feed the rank and file emotional issues to keep them jumping on a string so they don't notice the corruption festering at the top.
As for the top, they think Utopia is just one more action away. Despite all the evidence to the contrary, they think they can control things. This is the hubris of Greek tragedy.
thank you. In retrospect, I believe it will turn out to be a blessing that Trump didn’t get a second term in 2020. In the interim, he's taken the measure of the blob, and will start a second term in Jan 2025, backed by a posse which has the credentials and experience to prevail. I can get excited about what Vance, Kennedy, Musk, Gabbert, Patel, Ramaswami etc will be able to accoplish.
I also believe the post election circular firing squad and finger pointing will be the end of the woke far left progressive faction of the Dems. We need that party to rebuild in the center and put "We the People" before the Oligarchs....is that even possible? Probably not, and we'll just see even more hysteria.
And it wasn’t JUST the humility of defeat that taught Trump such vital lessons, his chutzpah baited the entire edifice opposing us and united us all under one banner.
I woke up to the deception in 2008 under the no talent snake oil salesman. Could see right through him immediately. I was a democrat and switched to Republican. Then when DJT was impeached twice I switched to Independent. I am a mix of liberal and conservative stances and so I have a varied group of friends that is getting considerably smaller as I no longer have that wide eyed innocent naive life is grand personality I used to have years ago. When you are married and have kids and aging parents and sick family members and a mortgage and bills to pay and crime (in my city) is through the roof and the roads are crumbling and eggs are $9 a dozen and the tel-lie-vision continually lies to your face (peaceful protests, safe and effective etc lol) as do the paid celebrity morons,….you pray to God everyday that people will one day wake up and see that life is short and we are all human and have struggles that want peace love good health and safety. I shut the tv and the newZ off a long time ago and have never looked back. My health certainly improved too.
Because it became obvious the Neocon Republicans were just as bad…many to this day support Biden. I was also tired of all the solicitors asking me for my $$$ :/
I can feel the bittersweetness in this post Sasha. Please don’t think your time was wasted following the left in their falsely virtuous appeal for your allegiance. It was probably meant for you to think you were on the “good side” so you would hang with the “swells” long enough to realize the flip side of their mission. You know, first hand, the motives and the lingo. You were on the inside and gleaned an insight many of us have not. Because of those years, you provide a blessing to your readers who find honest credibility in your opinions. I appreciate your bravery and how you inform and clarify through your writing. Thanks for everything you share.
Quite the “Hunger Games” scenario! Sad to think that people will actually believe this nonsense,but interesting that Vance becomes the embodiment of evil.
It does capture the general feeling of both left and right that we are approaching the last chapter of the current version of the United States. In the absence of a unifying force to preserve the constitution and the republic we are doomed to the devolution of this noble experiment. 35 trillion dollars in debt, no will to stop foreign invaders, no sense of civic duty or safety, I cannot see how the nation will long endure.
Leftists need to be shunned by all decent people. Refuse them service in stores. Refuse to shake their hands at church (if they bother to show up). If they enter a room, turn your back on them. Don't let your children play with their children. Show them that they have placed themselves outside of the pale of polite society.
A 7 year old family friend dressed up as Trump last night and instead of saying "Trick or Treat," when she held out her bag, she said "Make America Great Again."
No, this is not the Way. Show the Left we still care. Laugh and be joyful, no matter the result next Tuesday. We are now much more fully awake to the Establishment’s divide & conquer tactics that the Left currently has access to control knobs, which now include Left/Right political parties. Not all on the Left are irredeemable however, and not all of them subscribe to some of the more bat shit crazy positions of the Democrat leadership. There are a LOT of former Bernie followers now in the GOP. I hear JD Vance talk about positions of old school liberals (like suspicion of Big Money) with respect and gratitude. Removing oneself from a long standing association is not easy, especially when the identity is wrapped up in that label. For those waking up, welcome them with questions of curiosity and less judgement, even if it’s judgement that the human heart too often defaults to. Know that and tamper it down? Yeah, I do hear you there are some wrapped in Palestinian flags shouting antisemitism’s and more radical types like these that do need shaming and shunning. But that is a slice of the Left and not all of them. I say all this as a lifelong Republican who has now voted Trump 3x.
“ Nobody handed the presidency to Barack Obama. He earned it by being a once-in-a-generation talent who made people like me believe in a movement we thought was changing the world.”
Nothing could be further from the truth.
He was - and is to this day - a part of a ruthless and diabolical machine that tramples everything and everyone that dares to get in its way.
He has hated America all his life, almost as much as his wife Michelle does. And he is still wreaking havoc since he appeared on the scene in 2007, not just here but all over the world, like he did during his 8 years in office, and the last four, using Biden and the Khameleon as his puppets,. and he has never left, (first President in history not to leave DC after his term in office - wonder why that is?).
He is quite possibly the worst thing that has ever happened to this country.
Actually, he is indisputably the second worst thing to ever happen to this country. The first is liberalism which put him, a jacked up crackhead with a vastly over inflated sense of self, into office.
To be fair, every Republican between Reagan and Trump was the same sort of loser that you take the Democrats to task for. Even now, the GOPe is plotting a comeback post-Trump. This must not be allowed.
Thank you. I hate to think if Trump hadn't run for a second term much of this fake and deep state criminality would never have come to light. Much has been exposed and it will be interesting to see how the Democrat party positions themselves moving forward. And, will Republications seize the moment to unite us and clean up the mistrust and bloated government.
Sasha, Can you share what event made you switch to facts from emotions. It had to be personal and painful. I think of it when one runs marathons you hear (and I experienced) about hitting the wall; about 20 mile mark. It’s when you body has no carbohydrates to burn and starts using stored fats. It’s like “hitting the bottom”. But what is it in cognitive dissonance state?
Magnificent, Sasha! From the heart and from bitter experience!
Are you in Michigan now? Yes, Sasha did outstanding in this piece.
Yes. I know Mike Rogers is doing really well for Senate. I see more signs for Harris, but I do not think it means that much, as Trump people are still careful about their outward preference. Trump and Vance are here a lot. More Muslims than I imagined are for Trump. Many are small businessmen.
This is good news! How is Trump doing in UP (the place I so yearn to visit ASAP!) ?
The upper half of the lower peninsula is thoroughly Trump, so I’d have to imagine the UP is at least as devoted. Marquette county was the only one that went for Biden last time, iirc, and that was because of the college.
Michigan is going to depend on how many people in the SE cant lie to themselves anymore.
Trump is in Dearborn right now trying to persuade Arab Americans. He should avoid any discussion on the ME and focus on Harris' transgender agenda.
negative. never avoid. stay on the offensive. move the ball and dominate the message. No wars started under Trump. Peace in the Middle East. Simple and to the point.
the message is simple: Trump will fix it.

Those People and Institutions that Sasha calls out and names, sincerely DESPISE and HATE her.
Why?
Because she EXPOSES them and their BS lies and behaviors with obvious TRUTHS and with HER UNDENIABLE EXPERIENCE...
And WE L O V E I T❕️❕️
Sasha, I absolutely love your sobering analysis of the misguided left and the corrupt machine of elitist snobs behind it. We are so blessed to have you in our camp of liberty loving patriots who love our country and yearn for a return to sanity and a media who reports truth.
This is a great substack. I fear the Dems will steal this election, I hope for all of us that I'm wrong.
You are. I have it on good authority that the sins of the current regime have reached unto the ears of the most high and He has taken as his cudgel, the Great Donald and shalt smite those who deal in wicked behavior; who imagine they can sin under the cover of darkness: the Lord has yet His 144,000 that have not kneeled to Baal and the people shall back them, the rank and file military with officers sworn to protect the constitution shall back them, those that serve in the righteousness of the Lord’s vengeance; all shall arise in unity of heart and purpose, united by the Holy Spirit. And satan’s friends will not win the day.
So I believe. So I witness
"steal the election"
🤡

Every witness is a precious gem. Every soldier in the fight against the tyrant is reason for rejoicing
If Harris wins, it will lead to WWIII and destroy the planet.
How does that square with any leftist that supposedly wants to ‘save’ the planet?
The inflation brought on by the Harris/Biden regime’s vote buying schemes have caused people to have to surrender their pets to animal shelters.
How does that square with leftists who want to protect animals?
It won't lead to WWIII... Russia and China will sit back and watch us gut ourselves.
And it won't take long. The blue shitties will be rubble in a month.
They might wait at first.
But at some point, they’re going to want to move in – or use the assets that are already here.
But any kind of resistance to their rule will be met with that kind of overwhelming force.
And that doesn’t account for nutcases around the world who might get their hands on a Nuc.
Nah, let’s give Native American Spirit some credit here. If we tucked in and defended our shoreline Turtle Island we’d be pretty good.
We certainly have enough arable land and resources to make a go of it, if we just tell the rest of the world to screw off and deal with their own problems, eh?

It’s all a bit overwhelming. I’m sorta glad Trump has Vance cuz this whole shmiel is gonna take some figger’n
For $535M they could bribe each and every member of congress to do their bidding. Peanuts....
USD or bitcoin cash?😂

A heartfelt, personal, and poignant essay.

Dick Minnis removingthecataract.substack.com
Keen insight, there Dick. I think you nailed it.
And it wasn’t JUST the humility of defeat that taught Trump such vital lessons, his chutzpah baited the entire edifice opposing us and united us all under one banner.
Hallelujah
Dear God, I hope you're right, Dick Minnis.
But I strongly fear that you will be wrong because the anti-democratic and treasonous crooks will, once again, FRAUDULENTLY STEAL the election.
I woke up to the deception in 2008 under the no talent snake oil salesman. Could see right through him immediately. I was a democrat and switched to Republican.

Ps Great article 💕
Why would you switch from Republican to Independent after those RIDICULOUS impeachments?
Because it became obvious the Neocon Republicans were just as bad…many to this day support Biden. I was also tired of all the solicitors asking me for my $$$ :/
“What we got instead was a George Spahn, who allowed a cult-like movement to move into the White House.”
Wow. Sometimes, you read an analogy so clear, that it’s like a shaft of light illuminating every speck of dust. Really, really well said.
I had to look up the name. Great analogy.
I can feel the bittersweetness in this post Sasha. Please don’t think your time was wasted following the left in their falsely virtuous appeal for your allegiance.

Out trick or treating last night with my son, I skipped the two neighbors with Harris/Walz sign in their yard.
A 7 year old family friend dressed up as Trump last night and instead of saying "Trick or Treat," when she held out her bag, she said "Make America Great Again."
Exactly

Well said Matt L!
This sounds like Maxine Waters. 😲
Do not be tolerant of the intolerant!

We will have the midterms to weed more of them out. Mitch's coven needs thinning.
My body, my choice. BALONEY! The Covid vaccine. Nuff said.
