Why on earth are we still talking about the garbage thing? It’s not gonna move the needle. Donald Trump will call Harris a mulatto or something today and knock it off the headlines

It's honestly amazing that more of the racist shit from that rally isn't getting more buzz. Well, it should be anyway. Calling Kamala Samoan-Malaysian, like every brown person is the same and lesser? Tucker Carlson being in any way attached to a campaign should be a disqualifier in and of itself.

It's because Trump is embarrassing and uncouth and the Mormon Church is all about appearances. The majority of Mormons are still going to vote for him, they'll just do it quietly. 

I have a bunch of Mormon relatives. 4/5 Boomer generation are rabidly pro-Trump. Gen X/Y, 14/17 are rabidly pro-Trump. They're rural, so more comfortable with their vice signaling. 

There has been a significant exodus from the Mormon church over recent policies that relegate transgender members to second class citizens / lying to the SEC and covering up a $32 billion dollar investment fund / lying about Joseph Smith's polygamy, method of translation and history as a convicted "disreputable person" for treasure digging with the same rock he later claimed to translate the golden plates. 

The internet exposes what the church used to smother and hide. It's costing them a lot of members in the US. No one knows how many, but it's a lot and it's growing. The vast majority of ex-Mormons reject their Republican upbringing and vote Dem. 

Lol. "treasure digging." What, they are uncomfortable with the word "Grave Robbing?" That's the bridge too far. Also, how the fuck did the church lie about Smith's polygamy? It was...pretty fucking out in the goddamn open considering he had to re-align the entire "chruch" mid stream to make it happen. Fuck, Brigham Young hated the idea but he eventually fucking went whole hog for it as well.

Wisconsin. Georgia possibly. North Carolina. Arizona. 

Wisconsin has a Dem Sec of State and a Dem majority Supreme court now. Arizona has at the least a Dem SoS. North Carolina has a Dem. SoS. And Georgia's SoS and Governor told Trump to fuck off last time, as has the Republican Supreme Court of GA.

Dude I have studied dozens of coup attempts, you need the military full stop for any of them to succeed.

I mean, Hitler's Coup Attempt after he muslced his way into Chancellor didn't REALLY involve the military. 

 

[BamaATL 15,680]

Georgia overnight takeaways:

1.  3.27 million have now voted

2.  Women out pace men by 387k or 55.8%

3.  2020 Non voters now make up 613k, with the 18-29 demo leading the way with 216k.  

 

I don't have a lot of time this morning, so leaving it at brass tax.  It looks like we will eclipse 3.5 million votes prior to the end of EV, pretty unbelievable tbh.  From what I've read, the data dump on election night starting at 8 pm est, is supposed to be the EV first, with the day of last.  I'll sort of believe that when I see it, but unlike the past, that would in theory negate the red mirage.  I have a few counties I think will report early that are tell tales, but I'll post that in the prediction thread later.

I did. He didn't call them garbage. It was a possessive 's' not a plural one. He immediately says 'his' which is a singular pronoun referring to one person. And also a possessive. 

Because he was clearly talking about one of his supporter's actions.

I listened to what he had to say and we have a transcript. Both show he didn't do that.

If that matters to you.

Are we even watching the same video? 

I’m not going to change your mind, but I think most people will feel he called Trump supporters garbage.

At the least, it is not a crazy take and is not “made up by the stupid media”.

if anything, we should be angry about the false equivalency of Trump saying 1000 awful/stupid things and Biden saying 1. “Oh look, they are the same.” 🤡

Becuase Quigley has concerns, I guess. Of course, I'd argue that if they saw Biden's statement, it might secure more PR votes for Harris. 

Guys, this is it Biden called these people Garbage. It's over. Honestly, I'm surprised those 72k people in DC last night at Harris's rally didn't immediately go the fuck home.

@Dahobbs

Biden gave the GOP bulletin board material. I know Joe Biden is caring and humane. He's proven it throughout his life. I know he didn't say what Fox claims. But the NYT has it #3-4 on their page too, and it distracts from the true dehumanization that the GOP displays on a daily basis.

It was a mistake that the GOP will use to mobilize supporters. To think otherwise isn't acknowledging the obvious.

you have articulated your simply wrong opinion several times. We get that you think that.  

[Bozo_Casanova 25,462]

Counter-subconscious espionage, if you will 

[Red Five 40,061]

I mean, fuck, for 10 years we've been told that it doesn't matter what Trump does and it doesn't matter what he says. To the point that now people say they aren't voting for him when they cast their ballot for Trump, they're voting for "his policies". Whatever the fuck those are. Literally nothing he says or does matters to these people. He could promise to nuke a different US city every day and you'd get "Oh you can't listen to what he says...."

But Biden has a slip of the tongue and they all start yelling like it's the end of the world. Shut the fuck up. 

[Js1 82,103]

Stop comparing this to basket of deplorables! 

That was uttered by Hillary on September 9, 2016 - which means she had 2 months of that being thrown back at her and having to walk it back. 

No one is changing their vote 6 days before the election, with 55 million votes already cast, based on what Biden said.  Not enough time to stick and not really that many undecided voters left. 

No one is really changing their minds at all at this point.  Everything is baked in, barring a Trump stroke/heart attack, basically.

Also him calling the people that called the people who are pissed off about being called garbage the garbage is not gonna do anything but provide oxygen for that already out of control wildfire 

[jimmyjazz 45,018]

Hillary never should have walked it back, and Biden should have called all Trump supporters garbage.

To another point, that Queen parody was pretty good.  The last line was the best.

That's absolutely what he was doing. He intentionally kicked the hornets nest he's just old and fell down and had to roll and then give it a little kick while on the ground. Lol

Driving north on mopac this morning, I saw a crowd of people on the overpass near spyglass with a Country B4 Party sign with them waving Harris/Walz signs. I don’t think I ever saw anything like that four years ago. I choose to believe the energy on Kamala’s side will carry her to a win

I'm not getting this reaction at all.  Hopefully you're saying shut the fuck up because you're in a shitty mood, and not shut the fuck up because people are disappointed in the "own goal".  Because it is an own goal.  Because double standard doesn't even come close to capturing how Dems are looked at vs. Republicans. 

A dem stutter or stammer is 1000 times worse than a republican racist remark.  You know that.  We all know.  And the remaining "undecided voters" aren't the brightest bulbs.
