At one time 75% of the lamps and shades in the USA were made within 50 miles of Mayfield Ky. The clay in the ground was/is great for pottery lamps. Many years ago, I wrote MM a letter predicting what would happen to the industry when the chinese imports started arriving. I got a form letter back thanking me for my interest and asking for a donation. I found out later about his shipping connections.
Here many years later, the industry is gone. The jobs are gone. Jobbers no longer spend the night in local motels or eat at local restaurants. They no longer buy local gas or go home on sales routes and sell to mom and pop furniture stores in their home areas, They no longer buy big trucks to deliver their goods with.

I don't live in your imaginary world of cutsie names, underground internet news and conspiracy theories.
No I don't know Pedo Pete and probably wouldn't admit it if I did.
Are you familiar with Adrian Smith, Mike Flood, and Don Bacon? I know I'm not.... and you probably aren't either.
I have never seen or heard of them anymore than I have seen a Tweet from Hakeem Jeffries in 2016.
All of this is true. However, the bottom line needs to be said. Whether there is ballot stuffing, cheating, or whatever or not, the point is that many people in American are stupid. That is what is being said here. Let's grant all of this - Trump is a piece of crap. People hate him. He is Hitler incarnate. Walker is a disaster and a hypocrite, etc, etc, terrible candidate. But look at the alternative. Our country is falling apart. In every single way. Walker would have been a step in the right direction of stopping some of it, even if he has no business being a senator and simply would have been a rubber stamp to stop some of the insanity. Wornock is going to continue the destruction we all see. He is a hypocritical idiot. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He has no business being a senator. Yet, however the votes come, 90% of the black community in GA come out and vote for him - it will cost all of them dearly (crime, drugs, inflation, jobs, education....). I keep hearing people say "I trust the American people. The American people will do what is right." I wish I had that confidence. I know we aren't supposed to say it, but that is not true. They are a lot of dumb people in America. In some very critical areas, it appears they are over 50% of the population.
Agree that Walker was not exactly a stellar candidate, but I thought Trump endorsed David Perdue in the GA GOP Senate primary (?). Trump's endorsement is great to have if you want to win a GOP primary; not so great in a state-wide race unless you're running in a solid red district / state.

There’s nothing normal about this. If this is the new norm, it’s time for me to live off the grid.
A reputedly very smart man thought up that name for his father.
This is why you have to run Trump. He can directly contrast the very demonstrable results between his administration and the current one.
40% or whatever are going to vote D no matter what. It;s that remaining 20% of Americans who are still reachable you have to get in the battlegournds, and you'll have an easier time reaching them with demonstrated results than a "good looking/sounding" candidate. The Ds with their allies in the media will always MANUFACTURE DRAMA/CONTROVERSY no matter who your candidate is, and Trump is an easy target for that particularly no doubt, but the Truth (demonstrable resulsts) is the most powerful ally.
You very easily overcome lack of understanding and competence of the general low information voter by simply saying, "Look, are you better off now or then?"
Where she's wrong is that is WASN'T for nothing. The WEF, The Governments of the UN, China, Bill Gates, George Soros, Klaus Schwab and the like all got what they wanted with their little experiment. A whole faction of compliant sheep who would follow them over a cliff. They don't care that it was all for naught. They now know what they're capable of accomplishing when the next real calamity is unleashed to cull the population and usher in the Great Reset.
While everyone is distracted with the NDAA removing vaccine mandates, I wonder what andditional anti-American unconstitutional shit they’re slipping in.
Good to see you're OK. Hope all goes well with the MIL.
Opinion | Walker, Trump’s Celebrity Pick, Underscores Trump’s Fall
Herschel Walker was a horrific candidate, but the Trump brand has also begun to sour in Georgia.
Ronna needs to go to as well. No clue how she can be RNC chair when shes failing miserably.
*Romney’s niece needs to be shown the door @ RNC, botched a winnable race as HW was outspent by 100 million.
* GOP needs to stop talking about gays and abortion and focus on the issues that are advantageous to them, border disaster, disastrous energy policies, inflation, IRS/taxes, crime, TWITTER SCANDAL, Biden corruption, state’s rights, woke schools brainwashing kids, America-first policies, etc
* DeSantis 2024, appreciate all of Trump’s accomplishments but time for a new leader. He may not recover from the Kanye meeting with the Nazi.
*Time for Republicans to start fine-tuning the art of early voting and ballot harvesting. Takes two to tango, learn how to play their game.
*Nothing would have really been accomplished with a 50-50 Senate with 2-3 RINOs, so not going to lose sleep over this loss. Field better candidates going forward.

Oh, now it's not the vote stealing/dumping/harvesting that was never proven but instead the media won't allow it.
The GOP has no monopoly on poor messaging. What they are truly guilty of is never holding their own accountable, willing to sell their souls to win. They follow the patterns of despots, attacking the press, blaming immigrants, embracing conspiracy and demonizing those who don’t follow. The fact remains that most people are neither blue nor red, they are independent. They may lean slightly one way or the other but they aren’t radical. The GOP has allowed itself to be controlled by radicals who won’t distance themselves from other radicals because they need the coalition to survive. Their best move would be to divorce itself from MAGA/Trump and seek a middle-right platform that reaches out to moderate Dems, Independents and Republicans. It would be addition through subtraction.
Unfortunately that message doesn't work in places like Atlanta, Philly, Detroit, Phoenix even. The places in those battleground states that can flip the state.
She has a challenger for the seat now, but I get the feeling the RINO's will manage to keep her in charge.
Just outright straight up third world propoganda that North Korea would be proud of.
LOL. This guy is such a POS. But this magazine has no credibility.
How is that done? Trump is going to do what Trump is going to do. Dumping him would create a monumental shit show as he goes scorched earth destroying any legitimate challenge to his throne. I agree that I wish he would step aside for the greater good, but that's not Trump. We have to ride it out to it's logical conclusion, and sadly Trump has managed to turn the left into a bunch of screaming, hypocritical tyrants hellbent on keeping power and destroying their political enemies, and vilifying average American citizens who aren't down for their tyranny, as Domestic terrorists in the process.
Head in the sand. Told you to do a quick Twitter search but you just dont want to know, do you?
You somehow know every little detail about Trump, MAGA, etc but don’t know anything about this?
You have your comfy liberal world and nothing is going to change that, not even the truth.
That is truly living in an imaginary world.
Time Magazine really knows how to pick them. In 1938 they had Hitler, and now Zelensky. Maybe next year they can award it to China's President Xi.
So you admit to being a hostage and would rather remain a hostage than break away because of the short term damage you may experience. Pretty cowardly for a group that likes to embrace machoism.
As someone who won the 2006 Time Magazine of the Year Award, I take exception to this.
Zelensky when all is said and done will go by the way of Michael Avennati once the left/swamp does not need him anymore.
Person of the year is supposed to go to the person ‘for better or for worse ... has done the most to influence the events of the year’. It has never been the greatest person award
Man, every Republican candidate is going to be called evil and terrible and scrutinized but Dems vote for candidates like Fetterman. WTF is that? There's no independents out there anymore. They clearly know which side they want and don't want.
The reality is this
- A huge portion of this country are morons. They're low info, emotional voters. These are the people who absorb a headline from CNN, and repeat a talking phrase but can never fully argue a position and are completely unaware of anything that isn't told to them by DNC Media.
- The black population will forever be Democrats. There's nothing that will ever change this. They will never look at who is in control of their communities. They will never see that third world migration affects them more than anyone. Anyone who dares to step away is chided by the group for "not really being black."
- Republicans will never again win the White House. It will not happen. Demographics and mail-in voting has made sure of this. Trump will get his ass handed to him. He's going to run in 2024 and there will never be any chance of winning.
- There is no saving this country. There's nothing left to conserve.
Just looked at their list of recipients. Notable mercenaries such as Hitler, Stalin (twice), Putin, Among others like Mark Zuckerberg, Greta Thunberg, and hey, Elon Musk won it last year when the left still loved him. Donald Trump even won it in 2016 before all hell broke loose on him.
