Good morning from Newport on this beautiful November morning—what an election—and it’s not over yet. You know from these pages how we turned the waters off Newport red this summer with a Trump boat parade that was even better in person. What the pictures can’t capture is the radio chatter. The emotions we heard over our marine radio were of boaters proud to be Americans. They were standing up for President Trump because he stood up for THEM. While walking down the dock to our slip, a fellow boater said, “good morning Cap., welcome to COVID free waters.” It was a casual gesture that took … [Read more...]
The Future May Surprise You: The Northeast Vote and the Blue Blob Cities
In reviewing the vote in the northeast and on the left coast, it’s clear the big blue population centers control the outcome. That’s nothing new. Just look at the state of New York, for example. It’s a sea of red overwhelmed by blue blob cities. I don’t see this lasting forever. Look around Newport, RI, for example, and you see cars with NY license plates everywhere. You also see ones from MA (Boston) as families are moving in. Why? Because COVID is the catalyst pushing families out of the cities. Families are no longer interested in the amenities of city life when the safety of their family … [Read more...]
Democrats’ Down-Ballot Disaster
While the presidential campaign teams fight over the results at the top of the ballot, Democrats are already beginning to lament over their poor performance further down. Politico is predicting a "decade of control," for the GOP after Democrats failed to flip any statehouses. Ally Mutnick and Sabrina Rodriguez write: An abysmal showing by Democrats in state legislative races on Tuesday not only denied them victories in Sun Belt and Rust Belt states that would have positioned them to advance their policy agenda — it also put the party at a disadvantage ahead of the redistricting that will … [Read more...]
Arizona: Listen to Rachel Maddow’s Terrified Response
I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up, but good results came in for Trump last night in Arizona. The best part was hearing Rachel Maddow’s terrified response. … [Read more...]
The Big Blue Blobs in the Northeast
You don’t even need to watch election night coverage to know how New England votes. It’s all blue, all the time, except for perhaps a tiny congressional district in Maine. And we’ve seen how deep-blue New York City has handled the coronavirus. Not to mention all the NY license plates zooming around Newport, RI. So I’ll include NY in the deep blue northeast blob. As of this morning, three-quarters of Rhode Island votes are tallied, with over half of them coming from Providence county. It’s a landslide for Biden as the blobs keep spreading. Massachusetts, with blue blob Boston, extends its … [Read more...]
Why Americans Love Trump and Their Country
Remember when an actor from California named Ronal Reagan accepted the Republican nomination for President in July of 1980? I do. Because my parents were there, in Detroit, at Joe Louis Arena proudly wearing their Reagan hats. It’s captured in a picture I see every time I walk up the stairs in their house. They look so happy. I’ll never forget the energy they brought home with them, along with some small gifts for my sister and me. They were so excited. They lived through the fear of the 70s, raising a small family, trying to pay the bills, and wondering if life would always be so hard. That … [Read more...]
Rich Man, Poor Man and the Greatest Generation
Happy Election Day. It’s nice to know one candidate isn’t in it for the money. Originally posted December 4, 2018. You may have read Rich Man, Poor Man—one of my favorite pieces ever written by the late great investment writer Richard Russell. It’s one of those timeless pieces that makes me feel like he’s still with us. And with the passing of President George H.W. Bush, I’m reminded of the sacrifices of the “Greatest Generation” and their unique perspective on life. You see, Richard Russell served in World War II, like President Bush, and knew what it felt like to worry about … [Read more...]

President Trump has Delivered: “That’s the Kind of Teammate I Want.”
“Score!!! Bobby Orr!” As the great Bobby Orr (and wife Peggy) write in their ad in the Manchester (New Hampshire) Union-Leader, Trump has “delivered for the American people.” Closing with, “That’s the kind of teammate I want.” New Hampshire is in play! Drive south a few hours to deep-blue Rhode Island, where Your Survival Guy reports to you this morning, and Gov. Raimondo is busy capping social gatherings to ten people, and declaring no more ice hockey because rinks are “super spreaders.” But, to be sure, in the same breath Raimondo says public buses will continue running. What’s scarier is, … [Read more...]
Let’s Take a Vote: America Needs to be Open for Business
Where were you when you realized life wasn’t going to be the same for a while? Maybe it was when Gov. Cuomo stole your TV screen back in March. It wasn’t a good feeling, and it still isn’t. America is not meant to be shut down. We aren’t meant to shelter in place when a survival rate is near 100% for most. Lockdowns ruin Main Street. Americans want their country back. The press doesn’t care. The press doesn’t report the scandalous Biden family behavior. The press doesn’t report on Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation. The press doesn’t report the groundbreaking Tony Bobulinski … [Read more...]
