I mean this genuinely, how do we function as a society when we have people like Vance openly stating that he wants to eliminate the WAY HIS WIFE BECAME A CITIZEN and there’s no pushback, no news stories, no controversy. Just business as usual and follow the cult leader at all costs.

Look around. We don't. We're past the point of no return on that. Even if Harris wins this election, Democrats and their coalition aare going to have to hold the line every time. Obviously it will break at some point, be it in 2024, 28, 32, whatever. And when it does we'll get Project XXXX.

Who does the Justice Department consult about what's illegal? Seems like they might have a few guys on the payroll to help with that determination. How much nut-thumbing on this one?

No rush, of course.

Then it can’t sink him. If it could and he was offered to pay to make it go away, Elon would have bought it. 

I didn't say it was going to sink him. I said the media will mostly ignore it. 

[bluto 4914]

Honest question… whats to stop Elon from just going dumb and dumber tipping scene to ppl walking into polling place, literally $100 bill stack peeling em off on Election Day. He gets charged/arrested but Trump wins bc of it (say Elon drops $50M into the operation), Trump pardons him bc federal crime.

Theoretically, it should get easier to hold the line every 4 years if this fever breaks, which it might as more people die and more youngers vote. But you have to give the fever a chance to break, or just fucking quit. Personally, I'll take another 4 years to get closer to having the money to peace the fuck out.

There's only one poll I care about, and it's the Final Selzer poll for Iowa.  Harris ain't winning Iowa, but if Ann Selzer has her competitive-ish, I'll feel pretty good.  If she shows Trump running away with it, then it's gonna be a nail biter for sure. 

This.

Selzer should drop the final poll on Nov 2 (or around then).  October 31 (the last Saturday before the election) was when she dropped the Trump +7 and Ernst +4 poll.  Trump won by 8.2 and Ernst won 6.6

She also had Trump +7 against HRC in 2016 and he won by 9.4

If she has Trump up only 3-5, hold onto your butts, because Harris is winning easily - probably a sign she's very strong in the upper Midwest and winning MI/WI/PA with ease.  6-7 points, it'll be more like 2020 in terms of closeness.  8+ - well fuck.

[Bozo_Casanova 26437]

Wow. This really touches a painful place for me and makes me angrier than I thought it would. They should saturate TV markets in cities and social media with this, but especially they should put this into heavy rotation on Fox News, because it’s important no matter who wins. 

There’s very well known and very prominent Republican here in Austin who was my wife’s OB/GYN from 2000-2008. He performed the D&C on my wife when we lost our first pregnancy and subsequently treated us with incredible kindness patience, and compassion as we went on to have our two daughters. I wonder how he would react to this, or the hundreds of thousands of husbands my age and older, now fathers and grandfathers, who have had a similar experience, and yet intend to vote for Donald Trump.

People laugh now at Trump's "STOP THE COUNT!" tweet. That was a sitting president saying out loud he wanted to throw out votes that hadn't been counted yet. He also tried to declare victory while votes were still being counted. Yet another absolutely fucking bonkers thing he's done that just gets shrugged off now.

See, I don't believe this. Politicians, above all else, are cockroaches. IF Trump gets his ass kicked in two weeks again, and MAGA candidates in purple states keep getting their teeth kicked in, the GOP will have to adapt. Look how much they're tried to distance themselves from Project 2025 WITH 100% MAGA support.

MAGA is a cult. You can't just replace David Koresh with some generic dude in a suit and expect to stay on message with enthusiasm up.

The Branch Davidians stopped being a problem when Koresh died because pretty much all of them died with him.

There's a chance that the GOP shifts back to something saner if Trump loses again or, more likely, when he finally dies. And there's a good chance nobody can really step into his shoes and politically organize the same forces that he did. But they're mainstream now. "Conservatism" is Trumpism and many of them want violence.  They're not going to deradicalize. Our best hope is probably that a group of them further radicalizes as their ability to win elections shrinks, that they attempt a violent coup, and that they all get killed.  Because the alternative is probably a very long campaign of "lone wolf" style terrorism that we all just live with.

I'm the only non-legal expert on this site, but in a battle between equally capable legal teams, I'm taking the side with the law and facts on their side.

A ton of Lone Wolf style terrorism, over and over, might be one of the few things that actually move people back towards the fact that these losers are insane. But it can't be mass shootings. They're all indifferent to those, and they'll take their usual "2nd amendment" and "harden everything" stance. It's going to have to be oklahoma city shit. And it will have to be public things like sporting events. They won't care if 10 synagogues are bombed.

You YOU specifically said "You are a man voting for Kamala Harris." 

I didn't bring up gender, you did. I literally asked a question. Did you not mean to specify gender?

Why does she have no business running this country? She's been an AD of the largest state, a Senator, and now a VP. She's one of the more qualified candidates in ages.

What does sucking dick have to do with anything about being a competent executive? I hope all women in positions of power suck dick, because that means they're probably not mentally inflexible fucking prudes.

She has lots of policies, they are all outlined on her website. And they're pretty specific. 

Ther was a border deal that R's scuttled, that was written by the GOP. 

How is she going to moderate free speech? Please cite sources.
