Well, I’m hoping we are a little closer to Franco’s Spain, and things just peeter out once Trump dies.

Compounded now by the echo chambers of Social Media disinformation?

Looks like some knee-jerk downvotes, and very little introspection. He demands the student to ask the question again later when she is interviewing to be an intern. Could help to watch that clip too if you haven’t seen the series. https://youtu.be/bGIT4HT8mME?si=f-vkMCsp8xY9_iBN

So why the hell can’t we be confident? Why are we always on the defensive and the backfoot? To take another Sorkin quote to the party, when will we “Let Bartlett be Bartlett?”. Fuck.

I agree with Bernie’s rant today, but he still campaigned and voted against the fascist gaining power. Honestly though, the only state Gaza might have effected is Michigan. America does not care about Gaza. The price of Doritos and a fucking squirrel was more important to most voters.

I blame both the DNC and the chronically apathetic 40-50% of this country that don’t pay attention. Enough blame to go around.

I’m going to coast on my privilege of being a white male for a year and a half, then I will be back for the mid-terms. If America doesn’t care, fuck 'em. I need a break.

I could use someone rubbing my ass in the moonshine right about now…

Dude, Lemmy is not statistically relevant enough to have mattered on this election.

Likely voters is the key. The Never Trump crowd is part of the “likely voters” crowd. If the far-left voted, then Bernie would probably won the primary in '16 or '20. Let’s get through today, and I am right beside you to push to the left!

Hello from around the corner at NCCU. Keep it Dirty Durham!

This clip was so weird. Dude just forgot or ignored the Manhattan project. No Tucker, we have amazing documentation on the development of nuclear tech. Oh, and it was one of your dogs that scratched you. Neither are daemonic…

Does the Dems have an issue with Neocons? I can agree with that.

But I prefer the side that at least supports NATO and our allies. I prefer the side that at least doesn’t lavish praise to dictators on a regular basis.

Say what you want about Neocons, it is telling when we have Dick Cheney and John Bolton saying that Trump is dangerous. I will hold my nose and thank them for helping to get Harris elected to preserve the democracy we have.

Sorry, no, there is a huge difference between MAGA Republicans and the Dems (and Neocons) on foreign policy.

This is a BIG deal. Selzer was spot on in 2016, 2020, and 2022. This poll is the gold standard. Even if it’s off by 4 with Trump winning Iowa, which would be well outside Selzer’s typical margin of error, it would point to a huge herding and overestimation of other polls toward Trump in the Rust Belt. If this is spot on, this election would probably have Harris win with the biggest landslide since 1988.

We’re confused as hell how parliamentary systems work too, so fair I guess?

This might have helped two months ago. Thanks Europe. Better late than never I guess?

No rush this time our wonderful migrant caravan! The border will still be completely open and totally undefended if Harris takes over! /s …and you should probably make sure Trump doesn’t get elected in case he puts you in a cage and deports you on his first day as dictator…

I appreciate the climate argument he put forward. Very well articulated.

Or the fact that Biden’s leadership ensured we became less poor over the past four years than the rest of the world. The GOP is also gaslighting that it’s all because of immigration. They also have no understanding that tariffs and mass deportations like Trump is suggesting would absolutely crater the economy. No sense of neuance for at least 40% of Americans whatsoever. Everything is about “fuck you I got mine”.
