Thank god for this. It has pissed me off to no end that for years the republicans tried to claim "patriotism" and pride in the flag for themselves. 

I thought Kinzinger nailed this point when he spoke at the DNC.

Trump and his supporters always flip the world upside down. I bet the Q folks believing in the secret cabal of people running the world are having brain freeze right now.

[Js1 82,949]

That's great, keep hyping up the Trump-Kennedy ticket that is an average age of 74.  

[Red Five 40,274]

RFK first went to Harris for his endorsement. They ignored him and here we are. Such principles.

lol at the radical right trying to using this mornings stunt by turnip into a scandal

[linux 1,374]

Lol you guys overthinking the changing of the rules, the debate is all about making Donald Trump look like a coward pussy. Do whatever it takes, say whatever you need to say to get him uncomfortable and defensive, because that leads to a loss of image and him saying something outrageous (not that it was that hard but still)

You think that playing by the rules will keep Trump honest? lol. If the media gets too upity just hammer the point that he was too afraid to debate with the microphones on, easy...

The fact that it would even matter whether the microphones are on or not is a terrible thing and a sign that society is fucked. These are supposed to be two people who are in a job interview for a pretty serious position and one of them can't stop saying stupid ass shit for more than 5 seconds.

This is one of our many, many concerns, dude.

Seriously.  Donald Trump is one of the stupidest-ass-motherfuckers to ever walk the earth.  That fact ALONE should be totally disqualifying.  Yet we live in a world and time where it doesn't matter, at all.

Even worse they prefer it this way, the stupid motherfucker spoke like a normal human being in the 20th century. You just don't regress into toddler baby speaking due to age, he literally refuses to think about what he is going to say and the MAGA masses swoon and calls it manly.

And just add it to the list of standalone, complete WTFs.  When in your fucking entire life have you stood over a motherfucking grave and smiled and done a thumbs up?  I have been to hundreds of cemeteries (they're an excellent place to visit for history, as well as the fact that I've attended a few funerals in my life).  It's a solemn place.  I've never had any expression other than quiet and respectful.

That said, if that tombstone said "Donald J. Trump," any pic you snapped of me there would have me 1) grinning ear to ear, and 2) pissing on it, shitting on it, or both.  So, maybe Trump hates dead marines who died serving our country as much as I hate him for trying to buttfuck our country.

I'm not calling them the enemy of the people or bullshit like that, but their inability to call Donald Trump out for his constant bs and constantly giving him the benefit of the doubt as though he's just another ordinary politician is becoming infuriating. The "NY Times Pitch Bot" exists for a reason, the media's disparate treatment of the two party candidates is too blatant to ignore. 

I feel like I watch mainstream news and they constantly fact check especially when it's presented as a fact.

If Trump says the economy is bad, that's an opinion and cannot be fact checked. If Trump says 50m people came over the southern border last night, that can be fact checked as there is no credible source backing up that claim.

It's not hard to predict the lies, either.  Border data, inflation, etc.  Have the data ready and on hand for immediate refutation.

It damages the movie, IMO. Just doesn't match the rest of it. 

Her most popular character was Pat, whose impossible-to-determine gender was the basis for Sweeney's popular It's Pat! sketches on Saturday Night Live, and a later feature film of the same name,^[7] which was a critical^{[citation needed]} and commercial failure, costing $8 million^[12] to make but grossing only $60,822^[13] at the box office.

I agree, the point is that there is so much noise in the polling world right now, I am looking at the individual national polls right now, they are as precise as any predictor, they show trends and they are up to date.

Look I get that polls are polls and people should be skeptical. But when Trump was leading in every public poll post-debate, they were gospel to the media. Now Tapper is saying don’t believe them because Harris is leading. And your sources are who?

Hopefully this is a self-own, causing enough MAGAts to vote for RFKj thinking it doesn’t matter. If we could get them 1, 2 on a butterfly ballot in Florida the election gets called for Harris by 10 pm.

All the media criticism with Tapper and how it's reporting is justified, but the dea that Biden wasn't going to lose some support with white men in PA and other states is hardly a concern to be dismissed. It was something specifically discussed several times considering Biden's ties to PA.

Oh, I think there's nothing the Harris campaign wants more and the Trump campaign wants less than that debate.

He won't show up even if it's scheduled at Mar-a-Lago and the moderator is Jesse Watters.

I think Trump thinks he can do it, but everyone on his team except the most sycophantic is telling him he's not capable. He will of course ignore the good advice and try to debate her.
