The Morning Report — 10/10/24


Good Morning Kids. So Hurricane Milton has crashed into Florida at/near Sarasota. While not the category 5 horror show that the usual suspects in the media were predicting – and ghoulishly hoping for, the storm surge and sustained winds of over 100 MPH will continue to create havoc as the storm makes its way across the state and out towards the Atlantic coast. 3 million are reportedly without power as of this morning.

In other news, trying to get an accurate feel for where we stand in the upcoming election is giving me whiplash as we bounce back and forth between cautious optimism and throwing our hands up in disgust. We all know that polling is almost completely unreliable until maybe the final days before an election, and even then you take them with a grain of salt. As a great man once said, polls exist not to gauge public opinion but to try and shape it. Well that said, what then to make of supposedly Mrs. Emhoff's internal pollsters, as well as that of confirmed lefty polling outfits and pundits openly going nuts in declaring the sky is falling and that Trump not only is going to win but perhaps in the closest thing to a landslide as we can have in this day and age with the political landscape being what it is that has prevented that from happening for 40 years since Ronald Reagan almost ran away with all 50 states.

Beyond polling, if the panic attacks are merely there to get the base to the polls, why this insanity from Tampon Timmy?

The Harris campaign walked back Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s Tuesday claim that the Electoral College "needs to go," saying that it is not an official campaign position. "I think all of us know the Electoral College needs to go. We need, we need national popular vote, but that’s not the world we live in," Walz said at a campaign fundraiser in California. The campaign clarified later that the Harris-Walz ticket is not advocating for eliminating the Electoral College. "Governor Walz believes that every vote matters in the Electoral College," a campaign official told CNN, adding that Walz "was commenting to a crowd of strong supporters about how the campaign is built to win 270 electoral votes." Walz has made a series of verbal blunders that his campaign has had to clean up, including false claims about being present at the Tiananmen Square protests in 1989. During the vice presidential debate on October 1, Walz admitted that he can be "a knucklehead at times." During her 2020 presidential campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris said she was "open to the discussion" of abolishing the Electoral College.

Just as a refresher for why we have it in the first place, for the trolls and other low-rent low intellect lefties lurking about:

The purpose of the Electoral College is to stave off what James Madison called the “tyranny of the majority.” The system gives voters in rural, lesser-populated states a voice in presidential elections by limiting higher-populated states’ ability to solely determine their outcomes. That was also the original design of the U.S. Senate, and without such protections for smaller states, the U.S. Constitution would never have been ratified. That means without constitutional protections for lower-population states, there would be no United States at all.

As with many of America’s institutions, Democrats loathe the Electoral College because it deprives them of the unbridled power to silence all opposition. There’s no need to waste time campaigning to the rubes in “flyover country” if they can juice turnout in Democrat-heavy cities and states instead.

Walz’s fundraiser remarks are an outward display of this disdain. Democrats claim they’re fighting for the “forgotten” man and woman, all the while working to deprive millions of Americans of having a say in the policies that control their lives.

It kind of puts the erasure of our border and flooding of the country with at least 40 million foreigners since the disastrous Teddy Kennedy -pimped Simpson Mazzzoli bill of 1965 with zero means or desire to ensure their assimilation into the American culture. Mostly because the Democrats need to erase that culture in order for them to amass permanent power in the drive to fundamentally transform America into yet another shitty little tyranny that has been humanity's lot until 1776 and then 1789. The Exception to history until the coming of Progressivism that has done nothing but Regress us back towards the dark ages.

So, if they were so cocksure that they had 2024 in the bag, why bring this up at this time? Yeah, Tim Walz is an arrogant, dimwitted fool, and sadly in fairness, far too many people in this country have no idea why there is an Electoral College, the difference between a democracy and a republic nor do they necessarily give a damn. Remember, at the same time our citizenry is being replaced by third world illiterate peasants, America's children have been brainwashed to hate their nation, its history, their birthright and even themselves.

In a not unrelated note, if places like California and New York are guaranteed Democrat wins in every election going forward, then why the freak out over Trump appearing at Madison Square Garden. Surely it's a waste of his time and his money, no?

A New York state Democratic lawmaker sparked outrage Wednesday when he compared Donald Trump’s upcoming campaign stop at Madison Square Garden to a Nazi rally that took place at the famous Big Apple venue 85 years ago. State Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal, 58, called on MSG officials to cancel Trump’s Oct. 27 rally, claiming it could lead to “widespread violence” as he ripped into the former president and his supporters during the online diatribe. “Let’s be clear. Allowing Trump to hold an event at MSG is equivalent to the infamous Nazis rally at Madison Square Garden on February 20, 1939,” Hoylman-Sigal, a Democrat, tweeted in reference to the disgraceful Nazi assembly held during the reign of German dictator Adolf Hitler. . .Hoylman-Sigal, whose senate district includes the Garden, said he confirmed Trump’s rally is scheduled for 3 p.m. — just nine days before Election Day. The campaign event was first reported by The Post. “This is a disastrous decision by Madison Square Garden that will endanger the public safety of New Yorkers and has the potential to incite widespread violence,” the Big Apple pol continued. “For the good of NYC and its residents, I demand @TheGarden keep our city safe by cancelling the Trump Rally.”

Aside from Hoylman-Sigal being a miserable worm, the usual despicable sliming of Donald Trump as being Hitler has indeed resulted in violence. Two assassination attempts by Democrats. Somehow, I don't think this is what concerns this Hoylman-Sigal. Who is likely another self-gassing apostate.

Do I think that New York state could be in play for Trump? I strongly doubt it. My gut is that this is more a revolting display of not just hatred of Trump but for the fact that while many New Yorkers either Democrat or Democrat-adjacent might not necessarily dig him, but are becoming more and more disenchanted with Democrat policies, especially the open borders, crime and the crashing economy. It won't flip New York to Trump but it certainly seems to be freaking out the usual suspects about Trump's prospects elsewhere and all over the nation with less than a month until Election Day.

Have a good day.

Walz’s comments come as his running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris, has lost ground to President Donald J. Trump in several critical swing states.“I think all of us know the Electoral College needs to go,” Walz told donors at Newsom’s residence on Tuesday.”We need a national popular vote that is something. But that’s not the world we live in.”
