Rasmussen Reports Completely Vindicated by 2024 Election Results

During this election, many of us on both sides were obsessed with polls, betting markets, rally sizes, and any sort of tea leaves we could read to gauge where this election stood. In my extensive coverage of the polls this year, one thing that stood out was how the left refused to accept the results of polling that didn’t tell them what they wanted to hear. This happens on both sides, but from what I could see, if people on the right thought a poll was suspicious, they would look at the crosstabs and tell you why it was wrong.

The backtracking and grovelling by Trump’s biggest critics

Not since a “hot mic” caught David Cameron discussing Queen Elizabeth’s verdict on Scottish independence has there been so much backpedalling by high-profile politicians.

In the wake of Donald Trump’s victory in the US election this week, a host of Left-wingers and other leaders who castigated him in the past – probably assuming he was more likely to go to jail than return to the White House – have been rushing out statements, congratulating the Republican on his sensational win and saying how much they cannot wait to work with him.

Hollywood Elites Who Vowed to Flee U.S. Mocked After Trump Wins Again: ‘Don’t Go to Canada with Your TDS. They’ll Recommend Suicide’

Remember the gilded Hollywood elites who vowed they would flee the country if former President Donald Trump won the election and returned to the White House?

Today in Diversity Sucks Shlit: Fears of more clashes between Sikhs and Hindus in Brampton

Young men clutching swords, baseball bats and pieces of lumber are standing guard outside a Sikh gurdwara near Toronto’s Pearson Airport, their eyes scanning the perimeter for signs of trouble in the dark.

Prayers broadcasting from inside the temple mix with Punjabi music blaring from a pick-up truck parked nearby. The mood has been tense ever since the sun set.

‘They say Democrats look down on me’: Trump win spurred by populist backlash

The party was buzzing, the confidence was surging and Kenneth Stewart was riding the Trump train. “He’s masculine,” explained Stewart, an African American man from Chicago. “He brings a lot of energy. He talks about things that we can understand. He talks about building. He talks about the auto industry. He talks about a lot of stuff that people in the Rust Belt care about.”

Stewart was a guest at Donald Trump’s election watch event in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Tuesday night and celebrated his victory over Democratic vice-president Kamala Harris. The result said much about gender, race and the new media landscape. It also represented a populist backlash against America’s perceived elites.


A populist backlash against the people who lied to them every day 24/7.

There are warning signs for Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre in Donald Trump’s win

OTTAWA—Don’t let anyone tell you the re-election of Donald Trump is not a jolt to Canada’s political landscape. Or that we’ve been there, done that.

The fallout is about to overwhelm the Canadian government’s agenda for the next four years.


More random TDS ….Thing is TDS is really the same response by the Liberal-Left to any politician they declare to be right of Pol Pot maybe just a bit more whiny.

‘Crimea is gone’: Trump adviser says focus must be on peace over regaining territory in Ukraine

A senior adviser to president-elect Donald Trump says the incoming administration will focus on achieving peace in the war in Ukraine rather than winning back territory.

Bryan Lanza, a Republican party strategist, told the BBC the Trump administration would ask Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for his version of a “realistic vision for peace”.

“And if President Zelensky comes to the table and says, well we can only have peace if we have Crimea, he shows to us that he’s not serious,” he said.

Who should lead the Liberals? ‘None of the above,’ poll finds

As questions loom over Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s leadership, a new Nanos Research poll commissioned for CTV News says a quarter of Canadians say none of the potential Liberal leadership candidates appeal to them.

The survey offered people a selection of potential candidates to lead the party, including the current leader, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and a range of cabinet ministers and other high-profile Canadians. Of those polled, most selected “none of the above.”

Celebrities, your endorsements didn’t work – now get back to the day job

Oh dear, gorgeous George, what have you gone and done? Single-cat-lady Taylor, you’ve lost it; not sure how you’ll shake this off. Lady Gaga? Stick to the day job, love, while the US goes to hell in a handcart.

The post-election blame game has begun and a slew of Democrat-supporting celebrities are first in the firing line. From Clooney to Beyoncé, they were supposed to dazzle swing voters with their star power.

Not even Harrison Ford’s buccaneering archaeologist could prevent Indiana falling into the (disturbingly tiny) hands of Donald Trump.

FEMA ‘horrified’ after confirming workers directed to ‘avoid homes’ with Trump signs in hurricane-ravaged Florida community

A Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) supervisor told disaster relief workers in Florida to “avoid homes” with signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump, the agency confirmed Friday.

The FEMA official — Marn’i Washington — conveyed her edict both verbally and in a Microsoft Teams chat used by relief workers canvassing Lake Placid homes ravaged by Hurricane Milton last month, according to the Daily Wire.

“Avoid homes advertising Trump,” Washington wrote in a “best practices” memo to employees.

Joel Kotkin: Elite arrogance is fuelling the rise of the global right

In a way not seen since the days of Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and Brian Mulroney, the right is on the march. Donald Trump’s victory Tuesday was the signature event, but also reflective of an already mounting political shift. So, too, are the rising figures in supposedly progressive western Europe including France’s Marine Le Pen, Italy’s Giorgia Meloni, Britain’s Nigel Farage and the Netherlands’ Geert Wilders.

WTF?
