yep, Keith epitomizes the "enthusiasm gap" that cost us this election.

The Myths Democrats Swallowed That Cost Them the Presidential Election

With peace and love, any way you can sum that up?

I haven't listened to KATG shows since the election because I was very annoyed with how Keith talked about the election before the 8th but at that time I still thought everything would turn out OK somehow.
Well that clearly didn't happen and I couldn't quite face hearing Keith talk about it after - pretty happy with my choice right now.

And just to be clear this is no "finger hovering over the unsubscribe button if things don't change because I am butthurt" whining - I just need a minute right now.

American Christianity is about protecting what's yours and using your God given "common sense" to know when Jesus was being a dead wrong faggot, praise His holy name.

"Which leads back to the main point: Awash in false conspiracy theories and petulant immaturity, liberals put Trump in the White House. Trump won slightly fewer votes than Romney did in 2012—60.5 million compared with 60.9 million. On the other hand, almost 5 million Obama voters either stayed home or cast their votes for someone else."
