Luxuriating, wallowing, in the Trump Triumph Historic

Just as yesterday I couldn't watch the results coming in, now I know the results I've been luxuriating, wallowing, in the triumph of the comeback. 

A historic comeback. One for the ages. Where Trump wins the White House, the Senate, the House, and the popular vote. That quadrella hasn't been done since the 1980s.

On the other hand....

Kamala: the foregone rewards

A win the other side, for Kamala, would have rewarded bad behaviour. 

Rewarded lying non-stop about Trump and his followers. Rewarded the incessant lawfare against him and his followers, falsely-labelled insurrectionists, and perjury traps. Rewarded for the media being 98% on the side of Kamala-Walz, and for 95% of articles on Trump being negative. Rewarded for trying to kick Trump off the vote at all. Rewarded for restraining Israel from finishing the war against Hamas, because of local politic in Dearborn Michigan. Rewarded for the (highly likely) rigging of the 2020 election. Rewarded for breaking all previous norms, in the name of protecting norms. Rewarded for repeatedly ignoring Supreme Court injunctions. Rewarded for repeated attempts to restrict free speech. Rewarded for Defunding the Police, leading to a spike in crime. Rewarded for opening the southern border to a four-fold increase in illegal immigration and denying and lying about it. Rewarded for calling Trump Hitler. Rewarded for calling his followers Nazis and garbage. 

In short, a Kamala win would have rewarded all this bad action and enabled it to continue and increase. 

That's why I revel on the Trump win. Because he won't do none of the above. That' what I'm betting on. And what a majority of the popular vote are counting on. Because he didn't do it in his first term. 

That's why I hied me to the YouTubes to wallow in triumphalism.

And just for fun, one of the greatest monologues, from Greg Gutfeld: here

And, because I follow so many of the Black dude pods, I was early on the case that young Black men were going to break heavily pro-Trump. And that this was a critical demo.
