People were voting policy,dude. Healthcare, data centers, billlonaire election buyer wannabes, anti-corruption, senseless war, ad nauseum. All maga had was trans issues and “give us another chance”.

Lol, it’s not who voted it’s who stayed home but you keep telling yourself that. 
 

Please tell us about those outstanding policies that the Democrats hold near and dear to their heart not the perverted ones.

A “W” is a “W”, right? You can read the box score all day long, but it’s still a “W”. Gotta start somewhere.

Maybe a “w” for you but not for the country as a whole long term but then again it may be better for the country to be under some extremism to wake voters up….but then again if extremism is in power to long our votes may not even matter anymore.  U may bask in your victory now but later down the line(once your returned to dirt) if the ship don’t right itself your children’s children and children’s children’s children etc etc will suffer for yalls ridiculous way of thinking.

could republicans chose better candidates sure they could have and they failed too but that doesn’t change the straight up ridiculousness stuff yall come up with.

im starting realize we have some very weak minded people in this country…this election showed it on the republican side. “

He said he would - if he don't there will probably be a Democrat in the WH

probably will be, anyway. Republicans better hope the dems aren't able to quiet the small minority of quacks that have been elected. If the democrats figure it out and move back close to central it'll be a long time before the country is red again. That said, I don't think they're smart enough to figure that out. They're gonna take the blue tsunami as a sign that the country wants open borders and government overreach, higher taxes and socialist policies. If they do that the right will be back in a few years.

I grudgingly went and voted straight republican 

Me too.

As concerning as I find it that Texas has a democrat for a governor, I'm behind just about everything she's pushing when it comes to public schools. If she can accomplish what she's trying to in that regard then some good will come out of all of this. 

Ending STAAR
Firing Morath
Auditing no-bid vendor contracts
Ending the voucher program
Pausing the accountability rating system

4/5 I'm 100% behind, and as for the accountability system, it needs a major overhaul if we're going to keep using it.

Trump is the reason for the blue tsunami. I was told that he called Abbott a RINO. He is throwing everyone under the bus.

One of the panalists of the show that I was watching said that a lot of centrist Democrats won. I dont know how true it is.

And anyone who distanced themselves from Trump was criticized and not nominated. Leading to awful candidates running in races and a lot of them are going to lose seats the right should’ve easily been able to hold. 

Paxton was an awful candidate.

It is quite true. Democrats will rule the center. When Schumer gets replaced (may be ‘28), watch out!

I don’t disagree to some extent

God did not wake up surprised.

He still sits on His throne.

In this world ye SHALL have tribulation.

Home-school your children.

Stock-up on ammo.

Life will continue and time will roll on.

Lastly, the battle has already been won and we should continue to be loving, positive and spread the word.

Like our pastor said the other Sunday, do not walk around and act like you have been baptized in pickle-juice.

I don’t get it. If the battle is won (as it is) and we should continue to be loving, positive, and evangelical, why stock up on ammo?

We’re to be as loving as David when he slayed the Giant and cut off his head. 
 

Yes we’re to be loving and kind but not a door mat for stupid people.

I hope so. She said we need to invent technology that has never been invented before.

Interesting…

After DOGE, Elon came to a conclusion most people missed.

He tried to reform the state from the inside. He failed. And he said it plainly: the government can't fix its own deficit. Nobody in power actually wants to cut. The machine protects itself.

So he drew the only logical conclusion. If the state can't be reformed, there are only two ways this ends.

Either global bankruptcy. Debt keeps compounding, interest payments eat the budget, and the system collapses under its own weight.

Or robots. AI and robotics grow the economy so fast that the debt becomes manageable, and abundance makes the old fights over scarcity irrelevant.

Here's the part almost nobody sees.

For two centuries, capitalism has had a marketing problem. Its gains are real but slow and invisible. 2% growth a year doesn't feel like anything. Your life gets better over 30 years and you never connect it to the system that did it. Meanwhile, the left's promises feel immediate and concrete: a check, a subsidy, a benefit. That's why the left wins on promises even when it can't deliver them. Capitalism produces the wealth, socialism takes the credit.

Robots break that asymmetry.

When productivity doubles in a few years instead of a few decades, people will see it. Things get cheaper, services get better, opportunities appear, in real time. For the first time in history, people will connect capitalism and their rising standard of living directly, almost instantly. The causal chain becomes visible.

And that changes everything politically.

So there are two scenarios.

Scenario one: we stay in the current inertia. No breakthrough, or a breakthrough we regulate to death. The debt wins. Living standards stagnate, then fall. A frustrated electorate turns to whoever promises the most, and that pushes toward a hard collectivist left. But collectivism fails, as it always does. And when it fails, the most organized, most disciplined collectivist force left standing isn't the old left. It's radical Islamism. Bankruptcy, then communism, then something worse.

Scenario two: robots win. Abundance arrives, and it arrives visibly. The link between free enterprise and prosperity becomes obvious to everyone. And this is the key point: it becomes obvious to everyone, including the minorities the left was counting on. Because their long-term incentive is the same as everyone else's. A kid in the suburbs gains infinitely more from a booming, abundant West than from a bankrupt state handing out promises it can't keep. Abundance is the most powerful integration machine ever built.

That's the Western renaissance.

The West doesn't need to win the culture war by arguing. It needs to win it by delivering. And for the first time, it has the technology to deliver fast enough for people to notice.

The race isn't left vs right anymore. It's robots vs bankruptcy.
