It Looked To Me Like Populism

politicians prospered but the factories closed and the jobs left (DJT)

Trump was mocked by the overwhelming majority of the media, he was scorned by the establishment inside the beltway ruling elite, and ridiculed by Ivory Tower experts on the right and the left. He wasn't even a politician. Then he won.

No wonder. 8 years of Obama produced over 90 million people not in the workforce, some 50 million on foodstamps and home ownership at an all time low since the 1950s. In other words, a lot of poverty and grinding hopelessness while Washington politicians grew high on the hog. 

Out of touch, privileged, and richer than ordinary Americans could ever hope for, they didn't see Trump coming. Then BOOM. Here was a man who spoke to the people  and promised a return to prosperity at the cost of a corrupt governing elitocracy, and that carried the election.

No wonder. Bring jobs and manufacturing back, have a border, restore power back to the people from crony pay-to-play ridden Washington, be strong at home and abroad, reverse the carnage in our cities. All this and more and it resonates in a way that federal legislation forcing transgender bathrooms in public schools doesn't.

Sorry, that's not a Russian spy job, it's common sense and it's stirring. We heard it today at Trump's inaugural speech and if he delivers on even half of it we will have been well served.

In the meanwhile, 217 people were arrested for rioting in DC today. Their massive protest didn't turn out to be so big after all. Go figure, it wasn't popular. 

Let's hope Mr. Trump continues to confound his critics and makes America great again.

Melania is Awesome and the Posh Challenge

One of the Team's not too happy about the way Melania's being treated by the progleft commie fashionistas and sent in the above "meme." Some of you know the sender as "BW" and she's famous on both sides of the Atlantic for her ability to impersonate "Posh Spice."

Posh, aka Victoria Beckham, no longer smiles in public after the Sunday Sport accused the celebrity of being a "Village Idiot." 

BW, can you do the "Posh" smile? The challenge is on.

The Light Shines Brightly

And why's that, LSP? Because the evil Witch Crone Harridan, (WCH) Hillary, has been squashed like a roach. So we're celebrating at the Compound with crystal, fine wines, weighty silver, and guns.

Cupcake Crybaby

Make that deadly assault rifles, like the Old Crone was going to ban, but can't because she's been pasted by Trump. Some crybaby cupcakes aren't too happy about that. Too bad, losers, a new Sheriff's in Town. 

You Lose This Round, Satan

The light shines brightly.

Your Friend,

Why is Melania Awesome?

I'd have thought that was obvious, but maybe you're not convinced. Consider the alternatives. 

Genius

There's the genius of Yoko.

Huma, it's not true!

Huma "Bad Choices" Abedin.

Yeah.

Or even the Old Saxophonist himself.

Ahem.

And let's not forget the outgoing First "Lady."

So let's hear it for Melania and no more of this attacking her for making a good speech nonsense. Unless you want to get into it with the bikers.

Iron Horse,
