  1. And steadily deteriorating. He may be eve worse in a month. If Kamala and Walz continue drawing large crowds, media attention and funding, Drumpf is going to be bananas.
  2. it's almost like the press are owned by a bunch of billionaires.
  3. I really hope not--because it legitimizes them as a news channel. And they're not, to the tune of a billion dollars for spreading misinformation. I don't think I want them recouping a dime of advertising money based on her appearance on their shitty network.
  4. Probably could go in the 2024 election shenanigans thread too, but it's on the record now--title is link: Arizona Republican becomes first fake elector to plead guilty for role in Trump scheme Lorraine Pellegrino, one of 11 Arizona Republicans who falsely posed as Trump’s electors that year, accepted a guilty plea to a single charge for filing a “false instrument” — the fraudulent Electoral College certificate. The state charge was one of several she faced for allegedly joining in a conspiracy to corrupt Arizona’s election results. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes charged the 11 fake electors, as well as several top Trump allies, in a broad indictment in April. Trump himself was not charged in the Arizona case, but he was identified by a state grand jury as an unindicted coconspirator. Trump was also charged federally and in Georgia with felonies arising from his fake elector scheme and other efforts to overturn President Joe Biden’s victory. Pellegrino’s plea deal is the second victory in the Arizona case in as many days for Mayes, a Democrat. Another one of the 18 defendants, former Trump campaign attorney Jenna Ellis, began cooperating with prosecutors this week in exchange for a deal to dismiss the charges she faced. Ellis similarly cooperated with prosecutors last year in the Georgia case.... After his defeat at the polls in 2020, Trump’s lawyers hatched a plan to convene their own sets of presidential electors in some states where Biden was the certified victor. Initially, the attorneys said the so-called contingent electors were meant as placeholders in case Trump prevailed in any of his lawsuits to overturn the election results. Trump allies, like Ellis and Rudy Giuliani, also began leaning on Republican state legislatures to certify the Trump electors in order to stoke further proceedings and legal battles. As those efforts faltered, Trump eventually eyed an even more desperate plan: Use the existence of the false slates of electors to foment a controversy on Jan. 6, 2021, the day Congress and then-Vice President Mike Pence were charged with certifying the election results. Pence refused to accede to the plan, drawing Trump’s fury and ultimately the wrath of a pro-Trump mob that stormed the Capitol and derailed the electoral vote count for hours that day, threatening the transfer of power. My question is this--if this former plan already exists and there are cases still being held resulting from this broken plan to defraud American voters and Democracy, how could Trump try and pull it off again? Wouldn't it be pretty obvious to the point that everybody is looking at Trump wondering when he was going to start the proceedings to defraud the next election? And my second thought is--I'm glad that someone like Walz is the VP because he's ex military and maybe can deal with this crisis from the military side of things. Lastly, can't the judges and all the phony actors be called out in advance as in, we know what's actively in play, so we're going to need to verify everything with an independent lens or more eyes than just your political installations? Also, we need to see the lists of people purged from voter rolls to see if the purge is by party? I mean if a polling place requires a member from both parties to oversee voting, shouldn't this also be required from purging rolls and other election activities?
  5. Good, if they don't show up for his rallies, maybe they won't show up to the polls. I'm hoping Trump's lack of campaigning really cuts into their enthusiasm to vote. Reminds me of a saying--you keep knocking on the devil's door long enough, and sooner or later someone's going to answer you. A lunatic answered the door and Trump's orange ass got shot at. Let's see how bright he is and if he keeps knocking.
  6. Covfefe? Even my spellcheck tries to correct it. I have to go out of my way to fuck it up. See, Kamala is automatically corrected. He deliberately fucked it up.
  7. Shhh, he's showing his competency. Doesn't sound presidential does it?
  8. Remember the rules--no fact checking, real time or otherwise. It won't be televised or recorded, because reasons. It's all word of mouth confirmation. In fact, it's about the only time a game of any merit isn't recorded this day and age. Playing with an ex president--certainly don't record anything.
  9. Some really weird angry, sexual energy going on in that former post.
  10. You don't because they're being disingenuous and inventing ways to dislike him. Their same logic often doesn't apply to the other candidate. That's youth though. I was one of the Nader kids that thought I was taking the higher road between two evils. I also voted for Perot because he funded his own election. I was a problem voter, not a solution, and finally saw that I was really only getting the worst evil elected, so to hell with that. Ask them questions like how hard would it be to keep a book and movie deal covered up, along with the promises of instant fame, money and celebrity were certain? And in a world where everything is surveilled, especially one of the the highest positions in the world, how would that play out? And then start asking them when did they begin having these concerns and why, with nothing pointing that they were indeed accurate, since it's not been revealed. Isn't that the meaning of faith based? Where do they get their information, which can be debunked pretty quickly since everything is connected somewhere.
  11. America is where I can listen to a Tribe Called Quest sing over Walk on the Wild Side by Lou Reed for a Korean Samsung advert during the Olympics. And if you don't understand what Walk on the Wild Side represents as nobody in America seemingly complains that hears the commercial does, then fuck right off. It aint broken.
  12. So they're saying Walz served, unlike a certain general bone spurs that called captured and wounded soldiers losers, and he didn't like losers. Swift boat away. I personally can't wait till Walz starts blasting Russia and tying Rightwingers to them in a very public way, like an anchor.
  13. But he kissed his spouse on stage and a big chunk of the population felt uncomfortable. And you know how they are with uncomfortable history books, so they basically would push the same agenda against Pete indoctrinating their kids. I can't speak for the minority populations, but would they be accepting? I love Pete, but am wondering if America is ready for an openly gay VP, or even President first, and second, why take the risk when you have others that are great too?
  14. Here comes another temporary $100 monthly tax cut, while trying to ensure a permanent cut for the rich. Time to lift the yoke to readjust the straps. You'll feel better but the yoke will be heavier upon its reissuance.
  15. That's how I read his prior threats to McCain and Zuckerberg. He's not saying I'll go after you for not helping me before, he's dog whistling he'll go after them if they don't help him or interfere with him now. This is just more coup shit. All of this should be being investigated, but Hillary's emails.
  16. I love "Criminal Donald Trump". Think Democrats should repeat this moniker over and over.
  17. And I'm good with it because it keeps the press guessing and the Dems and Kamala in the news, instead of listening to Donald DuFu throw dung at the wall to see what sticks. He's still doing it but nobody cares.
  18. ding ding ding. They think the meskins and bleks are taking theirs. Welfare buh gawd.
  19. They're going to ramp up disenfranchisement, culling voting polls and closing polling stations.
  20. To out barnacle MTG is quite a feat. Surprised Trumps ass didn't crater from her sucking.
  21. If you want kids, you can always adopt. There's no shortage of the humans, just caring ones.
  22. You're doing that logic thing again. They exclude facts, science and logic since they don't help their narratives. Remember, every accusation is a confession.
  23. Guess running on his own dime with no support didn't appeal to him.
