Now that I've learned how to cook rice, ala the Alton Brown method, I need some good red beans to go along with them. I think Goya will fit the bill juuuuuust fiiine. Big Grin AOC must wake up every morning with a MASSIVE Cranial Infarction. Nothing but pure pond scum, and I hate to offend pond scum like that...

The Left's "Boycott" Of Goya Has Backfired Spectacularly As Conservative Customers Clean Out Store Shelves

"Go Goya!"

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...mers-clean-out-store



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

I keep reading/hearing this. Why? There's a guy named Mike Pence who has done an admirable job as vice president. Some recent VPs have been little more than doofuses (er, Joe Biden, anyone?), but it's usually expected that the VP will run after the current president's term(s) are done: GHW Bush (Reagan), Gore (Clinton), (Cheney didn't run ostensibly due to health reasons, but it's likely he would have been defeated, anyway). Hildebeast was (and is) an abomination; Obozo defeated her first, and it was deemed "her time" instead of anyone else. So, now it's Biden's "turn."

I say Mike Pence is the heir apparent.




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

I don't see Trump having a problem winning the Hispanic vote and I think he easily wins the black vote. Trumps problem is going to be overcoming the dead vote as none of them will vote for him.

Here's just a little sample of what the Leftarded socialism will bear. Have a best friend who flew a trip with an F/O that migrated here from Venezuela. I think he was flying for Conviasa, which is the "national airline of Venezuela". Get this...as a First Officer flying an MD-80, he made $60 per month. No...that's not a typo. Sixty (60) dollars per MONTH. Not per day. Not per week. Not semi-monthly. PER. MONTH.

A 1 bedroom/1 bath apartment in Venezuela is $300 per month. Do the math on how many roommates you have to have to cover rent and the bills. Bonus...you won't have a food budget, 'cuz there's NO FOOD!!

And the Leftards think they'll do it better.

(CNS News)—The Primary Model, invented by Stony Brook University Prof. Helmut Norputh, a political scientist, accurately predicted a Donald Trump win in 2016 and now the model says Trump has a 91% chance of winning in 2020.

The model, which (retroactively) has been accurate in 25 out of 27 elections since 1912, states that Trump will likely gather 362 electoral votes and Joe Biden, the presumed Democrat nominee, will earn 176 votes. The model gives Biden a 9% chance of winning the election.

Norputh designed the Primary Model in 1996. Since then, it has correctly predicted all but one out of the six presidential elections that occurred -- George W. Bush in 2000.

To further test the accuracy of his model, Norputh tested it against all elections that have occurred since presidential primaries began. The Primary Model would have “correctly predicted the outcome of all but two president elections in 108 years,” Norputh states on his website.

Norputh says his model is successful because it does not include data taken from opinion surveys and polls.

It “places an emphasis on how much enthusiasm candidates are able to generate early in the nominating process.”

How exactly does the model work?

“The model provides a long-term forecast of the election outcome based on electoral histories, plus the candidates’ performance in early primaries,” according to Pollyvote.com. “In particular, it uses the vote of the two most recent elections as well as the candidates support in primaries as predictor variables in a linear multiple regression model, which has been estimated based on data from all elections since 1912.”

The model correctly predicted that Donald Trump would win in 2016 despite nearly all of the polls, opinion surveys, and news media that favored Hillary Clinton to win.

The Primary Model predicted a Trump victory in 2016 as early “as early as March 7 that year, putting his chance of winning at 87%.”

According to Norputh and his model’s predictions for 2020, it does not seem the coronavirus has hindered the president’s chances to win re-election.

The Primary Model gives President Trump a 91% chance at re-election against Democrat Joe Biden. It goes on to predict that President Trump will have 362 electoral votes while Biden will have 176.

Bear in mind that Norpoth’s forecasting is not 100% guaranteed. This is a political model based on political variables. The model was wrong two times.

“The misses are 1960, one of the closest presidential elections, and 2000, when the late count in Florida handed Bush the victory; still Al Gore wound up winning the popular vote,” according to the Primary Model website.

“Winning the early primaries is a major key for electoral victory in November,” states the site. “On the Democratic side, Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders split the primaries in New Hampshire and South Carolina while Trump handily won the Republican Primary in New Hampshire (the GOP primary in South Carolina was cancelled this year).”

“What favors Trump in 2020 as well is the cycle of presidential elections operating for nearly 200 years,” states the model website. “After one term in the White House the incumbent party is favored to win re-election unlike the situation when it has held office for two or more terms.”

I don't really know whether to put this in the Trump thread or the coronavirus thread...
Either way, this deficit spending is a big deal:

Coronavirus Spending Pushes U.S. Budget Deficit to Record-Breaking $3 Trillion for Past 12 Months

The government’s extensive coronavirus spending pushed the U.S. budget deficit to a record high $3 trillion for the 12 months ending with June, the Treasury Department announced Monday.

Federal spending topped $1.1 trillion in June, more than twice the government’s average monthly spending, pushing the monthly deficit to a record high of $864 billion. During June of last year, the deficit was only $8 billion.

The annual deficit is projected to reach $3.7 trillion for the fiscal year ending September 30, according to the Congressional Budget Office. However, if Congress adds to the $3.3 trillion in new spending it has already authorized since March, the deficit could climb even higher.

The widening gap was also affected by the Trump administration’s decision to extend the tax filing deadline for Americans in order to soften the economic blow of the pandemic.

The surge in stimulus spending as lockdown and stay at home orders across the country forced businesses to shutter and lay off workers bumped the deficit to $2.7 trillion for the first nine months of the fiscal year since last October. Among the stimulus measures Congress approved were $1200 checks for individuals in the massive $2.2 trillion CARES Act as well as $670 billion for the Paycheck Protection Program, intended to help struggling businesses make payroll.

One of the reasons for the deficit increase from May to June was the Treasury Department’s decision to begin counting PPP loans as part of the deficit, since most of the loans are expected to be forgiven by the government.

The previous largest monthly deficit recorded in the U.S. was $234 billion before the coronavirus outbreak ignited record levels of stimulus spending.

The record deficit levels come as several states, including Texas, Florida, Arizona, and California record surges in coronavirus cases, causing some governors to order non-essential businesses to suspend operations once again. The administration meanwhile is weighing whether to approve a second round of stimulus payments in the coming months.

We don't need debutantes, we need pit bulls ripping these sons o' bitches apart, making them rue the day they entered the political arena, and that's Donald Trump.

This is war. That's no exaggeration. The time for being vicious is at hand.

I don't think this is much of a big deal. Trump didn't take a direct swipe at Sessions here. He just opted to get behind the primary winner now in hopes of pushing him into a win in November. Trump can be incredibly crass if he opts to, but I don't really think he was in this instance.

I tried to delete my post quickly when I realized my error, but I didn't see it soon enough. Sorry, guys. When he said Doug Jones, I thought he was referring to Jeff Sessions. I saw it wrong. Read it too fast. I have no problem with the tweet.

And I agree 100% with what you said.

I realize that now after reading the tweet twice. When he was bashing Doug Jones, I thought that was against Sessions. Thought he said Sessions was a puppet of Schumer and Pelosi. My bad.

No worries. God knows I've read too fast or mistaken something for something it was not before and regretted a post.
