BRACK: Trump people throw monkey wrench into our system

By Elliott Brack  |  Think of a complex machine going about its paces, humming along beautifully. It might be an internal combustion engine, with its many moving parts speeding you along the roadway. It might be as simple as a vacuum cleaner, scooping up dust and grime.

ANOTHER VIEW: Why Kamala Harris lost the presidency in 2024

ANOTHER VIEW: Why Kamala Harris lost the presidency in 2024

By Jack Bernard | Kamala Harris is a progressive who knows the issues. She campaigned for the nomination in 2020 on those issues, pushing the progressive platform. She could have pulled back on items like single payer but put forth a specific, new more moderate agenda… even if it is not what she believes is needed per her “values.”

ANOTHER VIEW: Reasons that Trump won the presidency

By Jack Bernard  |  Now we learn that Trump did slightly better than he did in 2020, winning 49 percent of the popular vote. He got 76 million votes, two million more than in 2020. And Kamala Harris got 74 million votes. But Trump’s victory  was not a “landslide” or “mandate” as FOX hosts would have you believe. He triumphed in the entire south and almost every state in middle America.
