Trump ends Obama’s 12-year run as most admired man: Gallup
President Trump has ended former President Obama’s 12-year run as the most admired man in America, edging out his predecessor in the annual Gallup survey released Tuesday.
Losers!
Eighteen percent of the survey’s respondents named Trump as their most admired man, compared to 15 percent who named Obama and 6 percent who named President-elect Joe Biden. Three percent named National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci, while 2 percent chose Pope Francis.
Because they are dupes of those Socialist/Communist strategists who are working to destroy Capitalism and make everyone dependent on the government.
COVID-19 is a dream come true for modern day Commies who have dreamed of this day since Cloward and Piven wrote their thesis in the 1960s.
The ruling class! We need a good crisis to demoralize America, redistribute the wealth.
Here is one more of many stories about how California, with the most Chinese virus cases even as it is the most locked down state in the nation, is suffering.
To those of us looking on it makes no sense that Governor Newsom would want to inflict such economic misery on the people of California, unless….
…..Newsom and other Democrat governors want the suffering to force Americans to move toward Socialism/Communism.
California COVID Cases Surge- Proving Lockdowns Don’t Work
If you still live in California, you probably deserve a medal. Living under the tyrannical rule of Newsom has to hurt. He keeps on adding to his COVID rules, but the only thing the rules accomplish is to prove that lockdowns don’t work. The economy sinks while the CoronaVirus cases surge.
[….]
Stephen Moore explains that the lockdowns don’t reduce deaths, and they hurt those who can least afford to be hurt:
Lockdowns are crushing the little guy. Even so, it is the Democrats who are pushing this anti-freedom agenda. Here are the 10 states listed by The New York Times with the strictest lockdown orders: California, Connecticut, Illinois, Michigan, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington. What do they have in common? Democratic governors.
[….]
The states that have not locked down their economy have lower death rates than New York and New Jersey. The unemployment rate for service workers in these states has skyrocketedto as high as 10%. In contrast, the red states, such as Utah and Florida, that are still open for business have unemployment rates for service workers as low as 4%.
Be confused no longer, they have a STRATEGY
So if you have been confused about why these Democrat governors are behaving in a way that is clearly aimed at bringing down the US economy, don’t be confused. The Democrat Party has been indoctrinated for decades in the Cloward-Piven Strategy—bring down Capitalism by creating a massive welfare state.
In 2009 I wrote about it at Refugee Resettlement Watchpositing that the reason the Left wanted more impoverished refugees and immigrants was to add to the numbers of poor people who would demand more ‘services’ from an increasingly strained government.
Here is my post from 2009. I know it is long but maybe it will help clear up any confusion you have right now about what appears to be just dumb decisions by dumb Dems. No, this is a strategy!
Cloward-Piven Strategy: bring down Capitalism by flooding the welfare system
More on November 23rd: Jim Simpson, an expert on the Cloward-Piven strategy has more today at the American Thinker, here.
That is the basic goal involved in the Cloward-Piven strategy that most of us never heard of until Obama and the community organizers got to the White House. I’ve been reading about it lately, thanks to RRW reader Paul, and it came to mind last night as I considered the fact that Somali refugees had flooded Maine primarily for the generous welfare system (more shortly).
Inspired by the August 1965 riots in the black district of Watts in Los Angeles (which erupted after police had used batons to subdue a black man suspected of drunk driving), Cloward and Piven published an article titled “The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty” in the May 2, 1966 issue of The Nation. Following its publication, The Nation sold an unprecedented 30,000 reprints. Activists were abuzz over the so-called “crisis strategy” or “Cloward-Piven Strategy,” as it came to be called. Many were eager to put it into effect.
In their 1966 article, Cloward and Piven charged that the ruling classes used welfare to weaken the poor; that by providing a social safety net, the rich doused the fires of rebellion. Poor people can advance only when “the rest of society is afraid of them,” Cloward told The New York Times on September 27, 1970. Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation; poor people would rise in revolt; only then would “the rest of society” accept their demands.
The key to sparking this rebellion would be to expose the inadequacy of the welfare state. Cloward-Piven’s early promoters cited radical organizer Saul Alinsky as their inspiration. “Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules,” Alinsky wrote in his 1972 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judaeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system’s failure to “live up” to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist “rule book” with a socialist one.
You should take some time and read Cloward and Piven’s 1966 seminal work in the Nation magazine to fully understand the concept. They (and their comrades today) want to enroll as many people as they can on public assistance, cause a crisis by overloading local governments, bring greater federal control and ultimately collapse Capitalism as the federal government takes greater control and brings about ultimately a guaranteed wage for all— a redistribution of wealth.
[Update! The article is no longer available at The Nation, but a Leftwing publication reposted it here,at Common Dreams.]
How can the poor be organized to press for relief from poverty? How can a broad-based movement be developed and the current disarray of activist forces be halted? These questions confront, and confound, activists today. It is our purpose to advance a strategy which affords the basis for a convergence of civil rights organizations, militant anti-poverty groups and the poor. If this strategy were implemented, a political crisis would result that could lead to legislation for a guaranteed annual income and thus an end to poverty.
My theory is that the “poor” of the 1960’s were, in subsequent decades, entering the middle class. Thanks to Capitalism there weren’t enough of them to collapse the system and many other Americans have an antipathy to living off the government and accepting welfare! So community organizers need the immigrants and refugees who have become accustomed, in the case of refugees, to living off of the United Nations, to help swell the welfare rolls. That is the only logical explanation for the Obama Administration continuing to resettle very high numbers of refugees right now (in a recession!) when there is little work for them—well that, and the desire on their part to create a magical borderless utopian world.
The Somalis who migrated to Maine are only too happy to comply, next! Here it is.
So here we are, decades later, just where Cloward-Piven, Saul Alinsky, Barack Obama, AOC and Ilhan Omar wanted us to be—redistributing wealthby handing out welfare checks to most of America.
If Biden/Harris succeed in stealing the White House, the demented old man could finish us off by handing us over to the Communist Party of China.
“[I]t’s just not going anywhere. It’s going down like a shot dog.”
(Low class comment by Senator John Thune (R-SD) about any election challenge that might occur on January 6th.)
If there is any bright side to the train wreck, the Election Steal of 2020, it is very clear that most Republicans are timid and vile creatures as Trump pointed out in a series of recent tweets.
Weasel #1 China Mitch McConnell (right) and his deputy weasel John Thune.
On January 6th, a MAGA movement is going to have a very clear list of those who are friends and those who are foes as the socialists/communists make their big move to take over the country.
And, MAGA must root-out those doing China’s bidding!
After that weasel and friend of China, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, is his sidekick Senator John Thune of South Dakota, both are good bets for history books to label traitors of the century.
By the way, McConnell has been given brownie points for his push to get supposedly conservative judges appointed, but now some are questioning what sort of judges he did promote. See Federalist Society judgesunder the microscope!
Here is the Epoch Timeson Trump’s latest blast at the Republican cowards:
Trump Urges GOP Senators to ‘Step Up and Fight for the Presidency’
President Donald Trump on Saturday called on Republican senators to “step up and fight for the presidency” as they continue to distance themselves from efforts to challenge electoral college votes on Jan. 6.
“Time for Republican Senators to step up and fight for the Presidency, like the Democrats would do if they had actually won,” Trump wrote in a series of Twitter posts.
“The proof is irrefutable! Massive late night mail-in ballot drops in swing states, stuffing the ballot boxes (on video), double voters, dead voters, fake signatures, illegal immigrant voters, banned Republican vote watchers, MORE VOTES THAN ACTUAL VOTERS (check out Detroit & Philadelphia), and much more. The numbers are far greater than what is necessary to win the individual swing states, and cannot even be contested.
If a Democrat Presidential Candidate had an Election Rigged & Stolen, with proof of such acts at a level never seen before, the Democrat Senators would consider it an act of war, and fight to the death. Mitch & the Republicans do NOTHING, just want to let it pass. NO FIGHT!
“But when it is all over, and this period of time becomes just another ugly chapter in our Country’s history, WE WILL WIN,” he added.
The president has ramped up his criticism of Republican senators in recent days for their reluctance to support efforts to challenge votes cast by presidential electors in contested states during a joint congressional session on Jan. 6, where Vice President Mike Pence will be counting the votes.
Then seeNPR’s rundown of what will happen on January 6th and a mention of the President’s anger at Deputy Weasel John Thune.
Congress’ Role In Election Results: Here’s What Happens Jan. 6
Referring to Thune’s comment about shot dogs, Trump responded:
Thune’s remarks appear to have caught Trump’s attention. On Tuesday evening the president blasted the senator on Twitter, writing: “South Dakota doesn’t like weakness. He will be primaried in 2022, political career over!!!”
Your mind likely immediately went to the the latest GOP darling, SD governor Kristi Noem who promptly said she wouldn’t primary her good friend John Thune.
Typical Republican politicians sucking up to the President when he arrived to do his now famous Mt Rushmore speech in South Dakota last July.
Senator Thune is on the left sucking up to the President
For those of you who have latched onto Governor Kristi Noem as a possible national office holder (Prez or Veep), get rid of that idea. She is basically a RINO with a pretty face.
I know I shouldn’t judge pols on one issue, but I do.
A few years ago, she abandoned the President when he attempted to give some local control (some say-so) to communities that could be chosen as new refugee resettlement sites.
Is this why?
China owns Smithfield Foods located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota!
Does China own Thune and Noem?
China needs their pork!
South Dakota has been swamped for many years now with impoverished refugees, low skilled workers for their globalist meatpacking plants, and Noem dares not cross them.
China gets its pork and rural America is changed forever as it must deal with the needs of tens of thousands of low-skilled, low wage third world workers many of whom were very sick from the Chinese virus earlier this year.
(China almost got its hooks into Montana, see here.)
A few years ago, I traveled the state, saw what was happening with the meat plants changing South Dakota, and I heard from our people there that Noem was nothing special (she was a Congresswoman at that time), just a typical pol.
P.S. If you are wondering what the schedule might be on January 6th, the NPR article tells us Congress goes intojoint session at 1 p.m. that day.
Joe Biden at the end of his Christmas message was asked a question about his son’s financial dealings by Fox Newsreporter Peter Doocy.
If you missed this latest ‘gaffe’ from Joe-the-gaffe-machine here is what he said. He called Doocy a “one-horse pony.” Huh? Did he mean one-trick pony?
But more importantly he dismissed any questions about his son’s shady international business deals as Russian disinformation.
We can have another good chuckle over ol’ Joe, but it is plain for all to see that the man is rapidly declining into classic senile dementia.
(I can’t believe that Youtube took down the clip I had posted here of Biden sounding nuts! Here is another one)….
Here is a nice little roundup of Biden’s signs of cognitive impairment (very sad).
Amazing that ‘Dr.’ Jill allowed it to come to this! Doesn’t strike me that she can love her husband much as he will go down in history as a laughing stock (and a crook).
Joe Biden gaffes 2020 edition: ‘One-horse pony’ to ‘Luhan virus’, top Bidenesque blunders of the election year
President-elect Joe Biden on Tuesday, December 22, said the federal tax probe targeting his son Hunter Biden’s murky financial dealings is “Russian misinformation”. And Biden went on to call the FOX reporter who asked for comment on the probe a “one-horse pony” in another blunder. Biden apparently meant to say “one-trick pony”, which refers to somebody with only one talent or area of expertise.
(39)With 212Million registered voters and 66.2% voting,140.344 M voted. Now if Trump got 74 M, that leaves only 66.344 M for Biden. These numbers don’t add up to what we are being told. Lies and more Lies!https://t.co/pY3n6DEWzPhttps://t.co/5FSNfJw992

Any chance that more than 70 million Americans are going to let this go? Nope!
So if you have been confused about why these Democrat governors are behaving in a way that is clearly aimed at bringing down the US economy, don’t be confused.
