2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.

Just gonna parse this out for my homies who think this could go to the House (it will not, and thank God) - I did the math. 

The GOP will likely have a 26-23 edge in House delegations after the November elections - Dems would need to flip 2 seats in IA and 2 seats in WI to force those into a tied delegation and you'd have 3 delegations abstaining with Trump ahead 24-23.  They'd also need to keep their slim edge in CO, AZ, PA, MI and ensure MN stays 4-4. 

DC gets 3 EVs but does not get a vote if it goes to the House.  Womp.  Even though I have the House at likely 230 Dem, 204 GOP, all those beautiful blue seats in CA and NY don't help if it goes to the House in a 269-269 tie.  

I don't even want to know the politicking to get Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota to pick a candidate if they are all tied delegations and keeping anyone under 26 votes.  You'd be asking Wisconsin and Minnesota to vote against their popular vote and same with Iowa.

If he's interested at all in the possibility of winning, he needs to accept that and hope for a Hail Mary. 

I still think he wants to lose just so he can keep playing the victim and keep asking for more money.

His whole life is whining and asking for money regardless of his station at the time.  If he loses he could face the dildo of consequences

Dems don't have an edge in AZ if you're talking about house delegations

I don’t know who she is, and while  I have a feeling there are no Trumpanzees in attendance, it still triggers them on the socials so good for her.

 

I don’t like it when musicians do this during shows, but Haley Williams is attractive, a great performer live, and seems like a cool person who would be very into a modestly successful 51 year old salesman with fading physicality and a mid range house in a good neighborhood.

I don't even understand why her alleged lack of a platform is a thing.  She has spoken in more detail than Trump ever has about her plans.  He just says dumb shit like "I will slash your insurance premium bump in half!".

I watched Stop the Steal this week and it's simply amazing to me that the "just keep saying it in an attempt to will it into existence" strategy is still as effective as it is.  It is a sad indictment on a large portion of our countrymen and women.

I try not to judge anyone for what they do in their bedrooms and who they're attracted to, but you're 31 and look like that, and that's the dick you risk your career over??

The dude she was engaged to is 50 years old. She’s got some daddy issues.

We have two bears down the street that are the most MAGA people you will ever see, mostly because they are 100% insane. One was a nurse at my sons pediatric, and he is legit nutbar.

Wouldn't one be a bear and the other a cub?  I guess they're still bears, but what do I know?

I'm not fully hip to the terminology. Maybe @safe sex can help us out.

 

These guys also have a Penn St flag currently flying. They rotate Trump, Pedo St, Steelers, Key West, and Israel mostly. One of them likes to do yard work in baseball catcher's knee pads and a speedo, which is always fairly amusing.

I assume it's the T word. I did not know that was a slur.

i had a friend in HS who was known for being a thrill seeker and driving recklessly. one day he got dropped off at my house by someone else and we were like, “where’s your truck?”, and he said, “man i just can’t stop blowing trannies.” our 17 year old asses just died laughing. didn’t let him live that one down for awhile.

He doesn’t want a debate because he wants to keep making up even bigger lies without being fact-checked.

 

Putting the ridiculousness of the lie aside.... What percentage of their campaign is now "Your life would be so much better if it weren't for those brown people"? 95%?

This is just comical.  He’ll say anything.  Every single job in the last 2 years has gone to illegals.  That’s just remarkable that he can say that with a straight face.

What's remarkable is that 70 million+ people believe it.

We are so.  Fucking.  Stupid.  We're the world's leading producer of oil?  Fuck that, we are the world's leading producer of fucking abject idiocy, and there's not even a close second.  There could be a country called Dumbfuckistan, where children are fed nothing but lead paint chips until they're 10, and their average IQ would still be 10 points higher than that of MAGAstan.
