  1. I live in San Diego and go to Hawaii at least annually. Care to try again? But sure, not much of what I'm talking about in Kauai.
  2. Holy shit, pot kettle.
  3. Can we please knock this shit off about the big, mean liberals that have been so uncool to Trump supporters? Why, because Jimmy Kimmel insults them every night? The language from the top of the GOP has been leaps and bounds more hateful than that from the DNC for decades. So are you talking us "normal" liberals who make them feel horrible? In real life, none of the liberals I know would dream about bringing up politics out of the blue. Because we're not fucking psychopaths. That shit's rude. Meanwhile, ALL of my Trump voting family/friends find all kinds of opportunities to rant about politics/conspiracies or make an unprovoked comment about trans issues. And they've all unanimously managed to completely forget how social cues work. I can't go to a beach, lake, camping, or off-roading with my kids without seeing Fuck Joe Biden and Joe and the Ho flags and shirts near us. It's all so god-damned hypocritical.
  4. What happened? Something I have front row experience with: victimhood and neverending grievance.
  5. Other than the feels?
  6. I've always given him credit for that. I said it earlier, but he's the perfect candidate for our current social media/podcast/weaponized propaganda information sphere. He's a shameless self-promoter, he understands that there's no such thing as bad press, and he floods the zone like no other. All things great to attract the reality show/professional wrestling audience that makes up a sizeable chunk of our electorate.
  7. C'mon guys. Biden wasn't winning this thing with his approval rating, having to be in the public eye daily, and widely unpopular economic views.
  8. I take it you missed 2016. He can fake magnanimous for 24 hours.
  9. Yeah, the VP pick likely wouldn't have mattered enough, but probably couldn't have hurt to have one truly gifted orator between the 4 candidates.
  10. Abortion, legal weed, and gun control too, of course.
  11. The electorate is not known for its brilliant cause-effect analysis.
  12. At least go back to a standing filibuster. I'd have no issue whatsoever if the GOP enacted that Day 1. You think you have great actual policies for America that now the majority think they want? Let's see 'em. You've got two years.
  13. The GOP just kicked ass on a liberals are too radical and out of touch about the economy platform. Nominating a slick-hair from "Commiefornia" ain't the answer.
  14. Not a gay one either. Or one from California. Or Jewish. Well, shit.
  15. I'm sorry, but this is revisionist history. The White House absolutely covered for him and need to own that. Though, not sure what you do when the POTUS is adamant about running again, and his family isn't stepping in. But every third story was asking if Biden was too old for reelection. Or "How severe is Biden's cognitive decline? Dissect this 30 second clip and decide." What else could they say? Make medical declarations from afar?
  16. You knew we were fucked when he stopped lying about cheating after that.
  17. They'll magically be able to convince themselves that the economy is good now. Because Republican in White House. It is what it is.
  18. I mean, it almost certainly is going to with or without Trump. Maybe Kamala shouldn't have been in the driver's seat, but Trump is pretty much the last one I'd pick to handle the current state of the world. Obviously hope I'm wrong.
  19. I don't necessary disagree with any of this, though you certainly take a lot of liberties. But then how a moderate can turn around and convince themselves that Trump is "in touch" is way beyond me. There's a double standard for Democrat and Republic candidates, and I suspect that's not likely to go away.
  20. Is immamac telling us all to quit our jobs in retaliation?
  21. I don't disagree with any of this. But here we are.
  22. So tell Trump his tie makes him look thin, and he'll do whatever you ask without upsetting his base.
  23. I was making a joke. I don't automatically think high stock market equals great economy. Also, paywalled. But, the fact is, everyone (who was being honest) knew that inflation was inevitable after 2020, ours is at least low by other first world country standards, and most believe that Trump's plans will make it significantly worse. But none of that matters, of course. Because people generally can't connect the dots like that. I don't blame people for feeling economic pain, blaming whoever is in power, and voting accordingly. It's what we do. You know damn well the GOP will be touting the same market and same current inflation rate as soon as they're able to.
  24. And almost unanimously economists favorite Harris's plan over Trump's. That his is almost guaranteed to be inflationary. How do you convince people who have no desire to learn or listen to experts? If you have the answer, the Democratic party would certainly love to know.
