  1. *earnestness engaged* I'm excited about the possibility that electing a Democratic trifecta may actually lead to judicial reform/expansion and passage of a new and improved voting rights act, so that we can bring America closer to the democracy we have always loved to pretend she is.
  2. If they want to fly a traitor's flag, it has to be a white flag of surrender.
  3. We're in the middle of it so it's easy to get lost in the weeds, but this is a fucking incredible economic recovery in a very short amount of time that nobody else around the world has really come close to matching. To the limited extent that executives really have influence on their economies, the Biden administration's economic stewardship might be the best the planet has ever seen.
  4. He's talking about her as if she speaks like Corrine Brown (the "Go Gata" Congresswoman). It's not hard to figure out why.
  5. I mean, it's extremely clear that it's just racism and misogyny.
  6. Manchin being extremely stupid checks out. I’m sure that rumor is true.
  7. I move for a thread title change to add "at least," because we don't know how many couches he's actually fucked.
  8. We’re gonna end up with like 30 different trial balloons for the VP pick. Beshear is still my favorite but Walz is really growing on me. “Get a load of these freaks!” is the right message and he’s on it already.
  9. This sure sounds like a confession.
  10. Agree with this, thought I really do wonder given how broken most polling is what data would've made them comfortable with her viability. Did they just have some better internal polling by the only pollsters left who know how to do an impossible job?
  11. You fight it by rounding up a group of guys to kick the shit out of them.
  12. NY FBI office is going to murder a homeless person, sprinkle some crack on the body, and leave a bunch of Harris' fingerprints all over the place.
  13. Can I get her number?
  14. C'mon brisket, any poll saying Trump will get basically half the female vote is very obvious bullshit. Stealing from bluesky: A ton of polls about this race have indicated that the largest political realignment in American history has happened since 2022 (with enormous shifts of minorities and women and young voters to Trump and old white people to Biden). Does that jibe with anything any single person here has seen in real life? Sure I could see Trump making marginal gains among minorities similar to the gains he made from 2016 to 2020, and I could see Biden continuing to make gains among white voters, but nothing remotely to the degree that polls have reflected. And there's literally nothing to corroborate the polling. Yeah, there's been some dissatisfaction among younger voters over Gaza and indications that some younger voters won't vote, but we're not seeing reporting about actual groups of young, organized black voters turning to Trump or anything like that. I think if the largest voter realignment in American history were happening, we'd see some other evidence of it.
  15. I'm not seeing a lot of executive or otherwise relevant experience there in that resume.
  16. And we know Trump has some huge fucking lifts in those shoes.
  17. Thanks. Still doesn't seem like one of the best options to me. He's got no executive experience and no real relevant experience at all except for his very young senate career. If he's the pick, it better be because there's some new summer pop album all about astronauts or some shit.
  18. If it's Kelly, I hope they've got some polling (that's much more reliable than presidential polling these days) indicating that people still go completely nuts for astronauts, because otherwise he makes zero sense and he'd have to resign his senate seat to campaign. The astronaut on the ticket seems like it would make a lot more sense in the 70s or 80s than today.
  19. Elon is keeping people from following Kamala Harris' campaign twitter account. I'm sure the twitter files reporters and their lickspittles who were posting all about them in this thread will be all over this.
  20. "Hey Scotty, did you see that guy with a rifle go up on the roof right above you?" "Shhhh, busy playing candy crush here. Fuck off." Yeah, I can see why they wouldn't want to release that
