Abbott says he'll "tariff" people moving from NYC to Texas, as if living in Texas wasn't bad enough.

(Republicans sure hate taxes but LOVE tariffs.  I wonder when they'll finally figure it out...?)

They've already figured it out, that's why they're calling them "tariffs" instead of "taxes", because their base is STUPID.
We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

In retrospect, it was kinda obvious.  And Trump's repeated red-faced threats and limp endorsement of disgraced former mayor Cuomo appear to have backfired, if they had any effect at all.

The demonization - when it was coherent, and the Muslim-Marxist-Socialist-Elitist persona wasn't very coherent - appears only to have spread awareness of his agenda, an agenda that struck a chord with Americans worried about the GOP-caused cost-of-living crisis.



And since we're in the "Let Them Eat Cake" part of the inglorious Trump Regime, that agenda is a hill Americans are willing to stand on, regardless of race-baiting attacks and worn-out "socialist" demonization.

Trump yelled and stomped his feet and tried to dictate this election and the American people told him off.  Expect to see a lot more of that in the future.
