As long as there are deranged people like Steve Schmidt spewing this sort of poison, we can expect more violence against President Trump, his administration, and his supporters.

Rick Wilson is positively deranged.

"Kill Tesla, save the country."

"Elon has a weak spot. Attack."

Rick Wilson is inciting domestic terrorism.

Elon Musk is being victimized and his businesses are being targeted all because of his association with President Trump.

Musk Derangement Syndrome really is Trump Derangement Syndrome. It is insane.

Stuart Stevens - Fact Check

Stuart Stevens, in Lincoln Project fashion, didn't take time to learn the truth. If one is so quick to criticize and condemn, one also should be prepared to quickly apologize.

Stevens deserves the humiliation he's receiving.

Never Trump Movement Is Dead

Disgruntled and disoriented, narcissistic and nauseatinghttps://t.co/xaxMmfcTWM

— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 12, 2024

From The Federalist:

Post-election, the main thing to understand about them is that however badly Trump broke their brains in 2016, he has now rendered them unable to explain what happened last week except to say that Americans themselves are the problem. Their anger and frustration is now shifting from Trump to his supporters, whom they clearly despise.

Consider the Bulwark’s election night stream. Jonathan V. Last kept circling back to his favorite talking point about why Trump was winning: voters are stupid — “too stupid to exist” he said at one point, as if the tens of millions of stupid people who voted for Trump should just go off and die already.

As it became clear that Trump was in fact going win, the hysteria really got going. Historian Jonathan Alter chimed in to say it was “a horrific event in American history,” and that he was prepared to hide illegal immigrants in his attic.

...In a postmortem at MSNBC, Jen Psaki decided she’d had enough. She said one big mistake was giving Never Trumpers too much airtime. “There was an over-listening to and an over-lifting up of people who left Trump, not people who left the Democratic Party.” The people who left the Democrat Party are going to win in the future, she said. “The Never Trumpers… that is not the winning coalition.”

Psaki’s rebuke was a pretty surprising turn of events, when you consider that just a few days before the election Last was on the Bulwark’s podcast musing, “Did the neocons just take over the Democratic Party?” Last’s co-hosts were mortified he actually said this — not because he was wrong about Never Trump’s intentions, but because he said the quiet part out loud.

But after Tuesday’s humiliating defeat, the Never Trump movement is dead. It has no constituency, and its representatives are so out of touch that even MSNBC hosts are noticing it. They had one political aim, written into their name, and they failed spectacularly. All they have left to offer, in the wake of Trump’s victory, is hatred and contempt for the tens of millions of Americans who voted for Trump. So maybe it’s time to stop pretending they speak for anybody, especially on the right.

"[A]fter Tuesday’s humiliating defeat, the Never Trump movement is dead."

Completely irrelevant.

Liz Cheney is delusional. She is absolutely nuts. She is no Abraham Lincoln. She would fit in well with the Lincoln Project loons, but she is not at all like President Lincoln.

It is crazy for Liz Cheney to entertain the notion of becoming president. That is never going to happen. Cheney crashed and burned in spectacular fashion. She has lost touch with reality.

An intervention is in order. Seriously.

I don't know. It doesn't matter.

Remember the Christmas Parade in Waukesha, the site of a deadly attack by black nationalist Darrell Brooks. That matters. I know he killed six people and injured scores of others. No speculation about that.

It's a long list.

Terry McAuliffe's campaign is spiraling down the drain.

Their attempt today to stage a white supremacist stunt to hurt Glenn Youngkin is priceless. Rather than paint Youngkin as a racist, it served to reveal what buffoons the Democrats/Marxists are. The liars and their lame plot were quickly exposed by conservatives, humiliating the Democrat/Marxist Cabal "journalists" running with the lies.
