A start would be to cut red tape that has formed over the past 30 years. There are so many rules and regulations that exist to protect factory workers and 9-5 workers. But those same laws apply to every industry. Farms are fundamentally different in that they are a lifestyle instead of a job. They are not…

Pretty sure you just described the plot to Judge Dredd.

I was speaking in hyperbole... but okay.

No, Obama did have a mandate, but he didn’t have a house or senate that would allow him to do anything. The fact that the GOP now literally controls all branches of government is what I’m talking about here.

In 2012 people didn’t like the fact that Romney was Mormon. He couldn’t carry the evangelical vote. Not that Trump is any better, but at the time that was the reason given.

The electoral college is the balance in place to ensure that urban areas alone can’t dictate the election. So in terms of electoral college, Trump will win 306 to 228. That is a landslide compared to past elections.

Also the Republicans kept the house and the senate and won several governorships in multiple states. …

If there is ever a movie of this year... George R.R. Martin will write it.

Posted this over at the slot, and I will repost it here:

Many of these people were forced into Obamacare, and don’t want/need/can’t afford it. As soon as the announcements that rates were going to double for some people, I knew Trump would win.

No, Gary Johnson is not to blame here. He…

As a white male Christian. I fully support you and will back you against any unfair judgement based on unfounded fear.

No. Believe me, I’m not pleased about this either. But I am not going to let doom and gloom control my life going forward.

Seriously, don’t even joke about that. Even if Trump wins it’s not the end of the world. It might be rough for a while but we will pull through.

California, Oregon and Washington are all gimmes for Hillary. If Michigan, Florida and North Carolina flip, it’s over.

I mean...this is insane...

This was not what I was expecting...

I live in Oregon. I got my ballot 2 weeks ago. Spent that time researching the state ballot measures and filled it out yesterday. I then walked to the library down the street from my house and dropped the signed envelope into the slot. I stopped at DQ on the way and got an Oreo Candy Cane blizzard. Then I watched…

I mean, If they are able to photograph the wall and preserve it that way, I’m all for it.
