Democrats like to pretend that financial markets are politically agnostic, or perhaps are even fellow Democrats. “After all,” they caress themselves lovingly, “Financial people are smart, and smart people vote for us.”
This election put the lie to that. The market rocketed this morning on news of Donald Trump’s re-election to the Presidency and the Republican re-take of the Senate.
Ordinary Americans are extraordinary people. Today’s market shows that finance gurus on Wall Street and Harvard MBAs running investment funds have joined Pennsylvania hard-hats, Cuban immigrants, Montana ranchers and a genius African-American entrepreneur/inventor billionaire – talk about diversity! – in one wild . . .
. . . HALLELUJAH!
They’re celebrating America’s rejection of wokeism, DEI, identity politics, creeping and galloping socialism, onerous governmental regulation, transexuals in the girls’ bathrooms, and semi-somnolent ineptitude.
For Democrats, it’s back to the drawing board with their crayons, to re-divide us by race, gender, and class. For the rest of America, it’s morning in the sun.

Just to get on the record, I have a name for this election. Just call it the DMT election. Seriously, stuff happened that was crazier than the craziest surrealistic rock video. Talk of making mutilating surgery available to children at their request. Cancelling and even annihilating whole population groups. A major party candidate who exemplified the Peter Principle (per author Laurence Peter) five times over in her career. Count them. District attorney. State attorney general. U.S senator. Vice-president. Presidential nominee.
Then the people spoke. In the present political epoch, 51 percent is the new 60.
Well said. She is a complete disgrace and exemplifies the incompetent, communist woke hypocrisy of the of the left./
God Blessed America
