Michigan Native Ted Nugent in the wee morning hours of the 9th as election results are finalized, lets it all out. Particularly entertaining and frank, he is thankful for the incredible results. He gets particularly happy when he sees that Michigan went Red (the 9:00), going for Trump.
Language and philosophical advisory: Not for the faint of heart, young children, or puppy cuddling, safe-space, college pee-pants protesters.

Enjoy a scene from election night.

(10)Nuh Uh.(0)Congratulations MR President.
Thank you for making Michigan a big part of your success.
(16)Nuh Uh.(0)Sometimes law enforcement or appropriate legal action arrives too late.
This morning, I learned about an election law violator. A call from a contact in Lansing gave me the heads up on a high profile lawbreaker in Traverse City. Apparently, Michael Moore thought it would be good to let people not just know how he voted, but to broadcast the image of his ballot explicitly:
Just voted!! Woohoo!! HILLARY, dammit! A vote for kindness and compassion and AGAINST misogyny, racism & greed. #USA pic.twitter.com/xclQliSmS3

Gosh, haven’t we been warned incessantly by the media constantly about how showing pictures of our ballots is illegal?
Certainly in Michigan it is.
(12)Nuh Uh.(0)
Yeah, it has hurt to see the crappy lying, out-of-context, and completely overplayed Hillary ads in the last couple of days.
There are fairly uninformed people who cannot see the bigger picture, and will allow such messaging to influence their voting sanction. Whether Hillary provides any benefit to the nation on any level is of no concern to them, it just that their feelings are hurt, and we don’t want a ‘misogynist bully’ in the white house.
Our precious cupcakes, frosted at the indoctrination centers we call higher education, cannot handle such unchecked machismo, yet ignore countless real crimes of the one who would also laugh as she gets a rapist off. Even the slightest off-color joke, comment made by a man who has aggregately enjoyed incredible success is a nuclear nightmare, yet the trusted mechanisms of justice are corrupted permanently by a family that would put the mafia to shame.
I have honestly had a revelation during this election cycle.

Donald Trump will likely be our next president.
It should really come as no surprise, but due to the nature of folks holding their voting choices close to the vest, the media has seemed content to report that he is already an also-ran candidate. We know better, and so do some on the other side.
Yes, on November 8, you Joe Blow, Steve Blow, Bob Blow, Billy Blow, all the Blows get to go and blow up the whole goddamn system because it’s your right. Trump’s election is going to be the biggest ‘f*** you’ ever recorded in human history and it will feel good.
Yeah. We quoted that guy.
Truly, if in fact he gets it, all of those inbetwixt he-and-I are likely to get it too. Yes, he is now screaming it is taken out of context, and that we should all go see his movie to see why, but he identified the underlying (and rightful) angst that actually exists.
There is no doubt that Hillary Clinton is the man, the machine, the mechanization of oppression and crap policy that leaves middle America feeling like a lone protester in Tianemen square after all of the cameras are turned off.
She offers more-of-the-same. And by golly there are few, if any folks who think that is a good thing.
Especially “more” of the same.
And of course, the tried and true ‘what is the definition of insanity?’ question comes in two parts. The first part of doing the same thing and expecting change is the gimme, but leaving in place the system that produces the same thing is the viral component that must be recognized as a continuation of it.
