Just remember, if either party wins, we lose! IMHO most all politicians will have to be screwed into the ground when they die. However, with the Republicans, we have half a chance!

Just buckle up Kids, we'e in for a ride after the elections. (And no soda (or pop) in the car!)

Jan's avatar

I will probably have to go into hermit mode for a bit. Unless the Dems start roaming the streets “revolutionizing”. In that case, locked and loaded. Does TDS give them a new form of rabies? They are nearly foaming at the mouth in a serious disease state. I’m old. I’ve never seen anything like it.

I had my first encounter with the afflicted today. I haven’t left my house much this year so am not familiar with what everyone else is experiencing in the wild. I had to go to the UPS Store. I’m actually a very congenial, happy person to come across in public. Helpful, considerate, accommodating, just kind. No matter who you are. I had two packages already paid for and labeled. I just needed to hand them to the clerk. I had to wait in a line. It was confusing if this lady to my left was even in line, and she looked like she was standing aside waiting for someone to join her or something and help her lift her packages. When the people in front of me were finished I waited and she didn’t move. So I stepped forward thinking “well mine is a quickie, so…”. Just as I set my package on the counter another lady who had walked in behind me and joined the other lady squealed “hey! She was next, but WHATEVERR!” I hesitated and kindly said “I’m so sorry, It looked like you weren’t in line yet, please go ahead,” and just as I was saying that the clerk printed me a receipt and was done. 😂 I said “whew thank goodness mine was fast” and the lady said “you’re just lucky I’m not in the mood today to make an issue out of it, because believe me you deserve it.”

😂🤣 Omg. These people are crazy. I said “oh my, I’m never in a mood like that” and laughed. She glared at me “how can you NOT be these days” and she looked like she wanted to tear my hair out. I said “Well I guess I care about my fellow man more than the issues that tear us apart” and shrugged. As I walked out she grumbled “must be nice!”

Yes. Yes it is. But I’m not comfortable leaving my home anymore. 😂

Jan's avatar

Sorry you encountered that. I’m out and about, but don’t encounter that yet from strangers. I am mouthier than I used to be. Age? 😏. Middle age, older liberal women have changed—not for the better either—taken over by TDS. I had it once too but that was Trump 1. I have truly repented to my God for what I said and thought. Lots of talk and threats about if we win midterms. The left has planted these fake polls so they can then go bananas claiming the steal. God is in charge though and their plans will eventually come to naught. The left is undeniably dangerously off its rocker and we have to be careful. Blessings, Juju.

Juju, you hit a nerve with me. I try not to be anything but lovely. The only time I engage other humans is with my pups walking on the beach.

It’s an absolute war zone leaving one’s home to do anything. I live by lists of things to do. Society is no longer civilized

kittynana's avatar

@Juju- My response would have ben "And we all learned how to wait in line in Kindergarten. Apparently some of us missed that class" and leave.

KC & the Sunshine's avatar

Screwed into the ground when they die! I’m using that.

David Baldwin's avatar

Yea, because they are so crooked they can't be buried normally. They'll have to be screwed into the ground! (This is only a joke I hope you realize. I don't want to go into the witness protection program.)

Sal_Peenx's avatar

My echoes the same sentiment, with a bit of snark. 😊😆

maggie medlin's avatar

Thank you for adding in “pop”.

David Baldwin's avatar

Yea, I'm from western PA and grew up saying "pop." Soda was always foreign to me!

maggie medlin's avatar

I’m from northern Illinois and pop was what we said too. I have been in Az for about fourteen years and I refuse to say soda. I am keeping a bit of my culture. Lol

The Great Resist's avatar

In my earliest memories growing up in West Texas, we said “soda pop” (both words, not either/or). But by my teen years, all soda/pop was — and largely still is — generally referred to as “Coke”. You want a Sprite from the DQ? “Let’s go get a Coke.” Hankering for a half-price Dr. Pepper from Sonic from 2-4PM? “Let’s go get a Coke.” Etc…

kittynana's avatar

@Great- a TX friend of ine said that! It goes further: "I"d like a Coke, please" "Which type of Coke?" "A Sprite, please."

Bgagnon's avatar

My hubs is from Western PA also- near Uniontown - a farm boy!

kittynana's avatar

@David- WNY here. Yes, it's pop.

Mary Ann Caton's avatar

Hi David! Also from western PA. We still say "pop" btw. 👋

David Wolosik's avatar

What kind of pop did yenz drink?

David Baldwin's avatar

Regent! Usually cherry. Never root beer because we made a batch before Christmas with Hires Root Beer concentrate and capped it ourselves. No bottle s ever exploded.

Said everyone before every election the last 30 years, yet here we are, in a country run by a uniparty that’s only goal is to fleece as much tax money as they can get there hands on. Democrats win, republicans win, it makes no difference. Voting is a complete waste of time, and elections are just ways to distract the masses from the grift. They rile everyone up, then it’s business as usual until the next phoney election.

Flippin’ Jersey's avatar

DataRepublican is posting some very interesting stuff right now, sort of along the lines of this discussion. Worth checking out.

Janine Melnitz's avatar

I think the dems are hoping Trump invokes the insurrection act in 2028 to call of the elections so they can take to the streets and takeover the government. These people are mental midgets.

Justin's avatar

Our form of governent was created to slow down the advancement of tyranny by people with a lust for the abuse of power. These people are in panic mode that they'll lose the ability to cheat in elections with apathetic, dead, illegal and non-voters that are heavily enabled by Obama's Govt service-voter registration schemes and backed by illegal manipulations of votes via machines, with fake ballots on call.

Did I mention the fake emergencies (plumbing leaks of urinals and bomb threats to clear out a building where votes are counted? I sure hope there are hidden cameras placed in such rooms across the country to catch those bulk shipments of ballots)

Flippin’ Jersey's avatar

That’s part of what DR is posting.

KC & the Sunshine's avatar

Jeff did a thing on yesterday’s Coffee & Covid.

I was hoping Jenna would do this side of things this morning. Between the two, I can barely keep up!

Justin's avatar

J6 was pulled off by Dems this way. Strategizing, and creating an emergency (doors unlocked and people invited in at just the right moment) that allowed for emergency rules to kick in and stop the challenge of electoral votes.)

KC & the Sunshine's avatar

Friends had a son there that day. It went down as you say.

Epoch Times had a video clearly showing officer Lydia ____ beating a Kennesaw, GA woman, Rosalyn Boyland to death what looked like a pool que. She was just OUTSIDE the tunnels. Her friend was screaming,

“PLEASE stop spraying and beating her! You’re KILLING her! She has ASTHMA! You’re KILLING her!”

Another guy caught a crutch that someone had thrown, raised it above his head and yelled, “PRAY, everyone!” He prayed aloud— and begged them all to STOP. He was arrested for wielding a weapon— the crutch that he CAUGHT and did not use. I think he spent a year in prison.

Officer Lydia did indeed kill Miss Boyland, and was later HONORED at the Super Bowl for “having fought like hell”.

Then, the cherry on top— the autopsy results were released saying Miss Boyland had drugs in her system.

The family had an independent autopsy which said she had drugs— ONLY IT WAS PRESCRIBED ADDERALL! Yet Officer Lydia was still honored.

Sickening and heartbreaking.

The part that makes me laugh the most about their leaked plans is after Trump uses the insurrection act, “the Dem governors take over”.

How exactly do they think the insurrection act works? Trump would have the military arrest every single dem governor who tried to support or defend the riots that the insurrection act was called to suppress.

It’s my wet dream that he goes ahead and does that now. No real point in waiting. And throw a few dozen of those activist judges in there with them, you know, to protect muh democracy.

It would be easy to catch PRICKster.

Just to amuse themselves, the pursuers could run in fake slow motion, and Talk Real Slow when they read him his rights.

NOTE TO OTHER READERS: DO NOT READ JENNA WHEN YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE AWAKE IN YOUR HOTEL ROOM AND NEED TO STAY QUIET WHILE YOUR FAMILY IS STILL SLEEPING!!!!

Girl. There are too many gems in this to count and I legit had to laugh as quietly as I could. But this one almost got me in trouble “I don’t know about you, but I was today years old when I learned the fate of American democracy could theoretically rest in the hands of someone whose job title sounds like it comes with a laminated name tag and responsibility for ordering printer ink.”

I’m actually stifling a giggle as I type this.😂🤭🤫

Love you too much Bad Ass. Thanks for shining so bright. 😘🤬🍑❤️

Jenna. I was watching an old episode of Just Shoot Me last night when a presumably gay guy announced, "I'm not gay. I'm British." Thinking of you. 😊

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

LingOL! Anyone remember a website in the early days of the internet called Gay or Eurotrash? You just flipped through photos of guys in eyeliner and shorty-shorts and picked one or the other... good times. ;)

Leskunque Lepew's avatar

A very good friend stuck in a deep blue state has already heard from Blue acquaintances the Republicans are going to steal the election!!

The impact of the WEF/Transnational gangsters captured MSM on empty minds cannot be ignored.

No proof of citizenship at the polls, but the Republicans are stealing the election!!

These Blue empty minds have no clue how thet are being manipulated to destroy their country.

Jan's avatar

They are lost. Truly. I’m dropping one group of retired folks because nobody can keep their damn mouths shut. It’s too painful to hear and then if I say anything the rolling eyes begin. Too old for this. I will not comply and vote Red. All I can do.

Esther Cook's avatar

"I will not comply and vote Red."

Are you saying, you will not comply AND you will vote Red?

Or you will NOT vote Red?

Jan's avatar

I will not comply to democrat madness and I will vote red. My 2 main objectives.

Jpeach's avatar

The Democrats aka Marxists, Islamists, Globalists, Deep State, all their Useful Idiots and all their Captured Institutions, are in panic mode. Their destroy Western Civilization agenda is working in Europe but, not so much in America. We are in for some historically crazy times over the 12 days and beyond, as the Democrats temper tantrum rages. In the meantime VOTE for Common Sense Candidates.

SteelJ's avatar

My common sense says release the Epstein files and don't attack foreign countries. If you must bully foreign countries, pick more helpless victims than Iran. I'm not happy that Trump has stopped the momentum the GOP had dead in its tracks.

Heather B's avatar

I don't know what will happen but in general the Dems accuse Reps of what they are doing or plan to do and Jan 6 was their coup so of course they are worried the Reps will do one too. But I can help you with the chicken crisis. I've been asking Gemini what to do with chicken and XXX (whatever ingredients I happen to have in the kitchen) and it spits out recipes. Got a whole new recipe collection now. Also, your titles get me, "The Art of the Squeal" and "Coup, There It Is." Brilliant. 💕

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

Vodka chicken it is! (KIDDING)

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

But hand to heart, my daughter just invited me over for vodka pasta for dinner!😂😂😂

Yana N.'s avatar

What a waste of vodka 🤣 Cooking evaporates the alcohol, without the alcohol what's the point? 😁

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

Let me know when you publish your cookbook!😂🍗🐔

Meddling Kid's avatar

Your definition isn’t nearly as interesting as Granny’s XXX rheumatism medicine.

Heather B's avatar

😂 How do you know? Maybe the XXX was wine. Hypothetically.

Maureen's avatar

I was one of the one’s unable to weigh in. I texted my sis and told her, “I commented YESTERDAY and today it says you have to be a subscriber to comment!”. Thanks Jenna, for letting me back in.

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

I WOULD NEVER, EVER DO THAT TO YOU GUYS!!! I felt awful, honestly. :(

Maureen's avatar

I thought it was a glitch and didn’t even blame you…..😍

John Wright's avatar

It did cut down on commenting! It silenced me!

Laura Kasner's avatar

I had that happen on a post sometime ago because the default was only paid subs can comment. What’s weird is after that, the default changed back to “everyone”.

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

My default is paid only. I am usually so careful about remembering to uncheck that!

Marlene Swann's avatar

Substack is delusional, sometimes.

David Nelson's avatar

"sometimes." Marlene, you've been reading those "Be Kind" posters haven't you? I wondered what they were for...

Marlene Swann's avatar

She really did. (Text me, I mean. That Jenna’s Side was experiencing a Substack glitch.) All is well, everything’s fine 🔥🔥!!

“I can barely think of six ways to cook a chicken” sucked me right in !!!! Psych 🤪🤪🤪 it’s a physics formula for velocity, time and slaps on cooking a chicken. Ya got me 😘

Vee's avatar

This feel like a bunch of grade schoolers blaming the other side for cheating because they didn't like losing a sportsball game.

Maaaaaybe we should address the root of the problem so the other side can't always blame the other side for cheating. But instead, one side screams "coup" when they lose. What a goofy world we live in.

Doc Malik recently had a great conversation with Etienne De La Boetie2 that is well worh the listen!

How about we adjust the system so it doesn't matter who is in office?

One that has so little authority over our lives (constitutional level) and anyone who breaks that rule is tried for treason or goes to jail.

Isn't that what made 'voting' so important? That the other side was going to do things that violate our rights and make life unbearable (both sides are doing it and not holding the other accountable).

JBell's avatar

What does that even mean? If those in office are unable or unwilling to advance our country .... why are they in office? Why have an office? Makes no sense to wish for grid-lock or a do-nothing congress.

Mike Myhre's avatar

"in office and unable to advance our country... why are they in office?"

Sounds like treason to me.

Justin's avatar

I'm wondering how many new laws do we need?

Mike Myhre's avatar

Less laws, not new ones.

"Do no harm to fellow citizens" pretty much sums it up.

John Wright's avatar

Yes, time for a new system not more "hey the other side cheated".

Karen Koshgarian's avatar

Just sayin’ Jenna, that I wasn’t going to vote, for the first time since my first time 1964. I’d had it. And now, I’m going to vote. It’s your fault! Thank you. 🥰

Frontera Lupita's avatar

I just had a ‘patriot/medical freedom’ friend email me about the reason to not vote in this election, or any elections for that matter! I am torn big time about to vote or not to vote! Out here in Commifornia it’s a basically an act of futility. Our elections out here are SO RIGGED!

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

Plug your nose, put it in the “can’t hurt might help” column and do it! Please!

Frontera Lupita's avatar

You know how it is out here! That’s why you split the scene and moved to Tejas! It’s only gotten worse. I’m so weary of hearing they have “called the election” and the polls haven’t even closed, nor have they counted all those “legit mail in ballots”! I’ll take one for the team, this time, but if it’s the same I am done. How does that saying go…”Definition of Insanity”…doing the same thing and expecting different results”?

Maureen's avatar

After all this doomsday predictions about the elections, it’ll probably pass by us w/out so much as a snap, crackle or pop. Life as usual will soon be the norm again….

That does mostly happen. Plus, which side has the guns and the armed forces, weapons, including national guard. Most are pissants in the end anyway. The blowhards sit snug in their Senate offices with special privileges and coddled view of life. Goodness, they don’t have one brain between them, the Dems and RINOS, for sure. Trump actually barely needs congress.

Not worried! Not even stocking up extra ammo.
