Trump's Secret Weapon



The secret weapon of the Republicans is George Soros and the elite Democratic leadership.  Possessing power jealously, they simply will not allow any others to ascend to leadership.  They demand any pretenders to power be rather far to the left.   In proof, a large number of the cabal of power-Democrats come from three states: New York, Massachusetts, and California.  

You can bet many Democrats feel like they are also forgotten. 

This continues with left-like movements such as the current protests against the Trump win, but also in the Occupy Wall Street push.  No leaders seem to be emerging.  These elites still control everything, no matter how much soul-searching or analysis seems to be forthcoming.  

If anything, this election showed that internally controlled progressive agendas may not work.  They have spent their power capital.  Exhausted for now, they must appeal to moderates within.  Can they do it?  Probably not. Power is so very hard to give up.   Republicans should encourage leaders like Nancy Pelosi to stay in control, as that will assure they stay in power. 

A final point, made most often by Democrats, is that Trump won because the non-college educated, thus ignorant voter.  This is an implied fallacy. To be non college educated simply means you have not been indoctrinated by college professors.  You must think for yourself. These days a college education does not automatically confer or imply intelligence - so weak is the college educational process over the past couple of decades.

UNCERTAINTY IS CERTAIN

  Uncertainty is Certain G. Donald Allen 12/12/2024 1.       Introduction . This short essay is about uncertainty in people from both secular and nonsecular viewpoints. One point that will emerge is that randomly based uncertainty can be a driver for religious structure. Many groups facing uncertainty about their future are deeply religious or rely on faith as a source of comfort, resilience, and guidance. The intersection of uncertainty and religiosity often stems from the human need to find meaning, hope, and stability in the face of unpredictable or challenging circumstances. We first take up the connections of uncertainty to religion for the first real profession, farming, noting that hunting has many similar uncertainties. Below are groups that commonly lean on religious beliefs amidst uncertainty.   This short essay is a follow-up to a previous piece on certainty (https://used-ideas.blogspot.com/2024/12/certainty-is-also-emotion.html).

CERTAINTY IS ALSO AN EMOTION

  Certainty is also a Feeling Certainty is often viewed as a mental state tied to knowledge and confidence, but it also functions as a feeling with distinct emotional and physiological components. While it arises from cognitive processes, certainty also has a subjective and emotional quality that makes it more than just a rational judgment. It provides a sense of assurance and security that shapes human experience in profound ways. Emotional Dimension . At its core, certainty evokes emotions that influence how we perceive and interact with the world. When someone feels certain, they often experience relief, comfort, or empowerment. These emotions are particularly strong when uncertainty or doubt is resolved, offering a sense of closure. For example, solving a complex problem or having a belief validated by evidence brings not just intellectual satisfaction but also emotional reassurance. Subjectivity. Certainty is inherently personal and subjective. It depends on individual...

Lies, Deceit, and the National Agenda

The world you grew up in is no more.  The world of reasonable honesty and reasonable lies has been replaced by abject dishonesty and blatant lies. Lies.  Yes. People have always told them.  You have told them; so have I.   We need lies; they are a foundational structure of social living.  They both deceive and protect.  Children tell them to their parents to avoid consequences, like punishment.  Adults tell them to their bosses, to enhance their position and/or avoid consequences of poor performance.  Our bosses tell them to their boards to suggest business is good, the project is on target, or the detractors are wrong.  The boards tell them to shareholders to protect their own credibility and most importantly, stock values.   Our politicians tell lies to their constituents, though sometimes innocently with them not actually knowing much more than they've been told.  They enhance their positio...
