The US withdraw from Afghanistan was during Bidens presidency and was criticized by Trump for doing so.Quote:

Trump did build a wall.
That, I said I have no extend knowledge on this.
There is no "pedo Thing" happening.
Are you in the FBI? I should watch my arse if so. Lol

I think i posted enough on this. From high to low and with a statistical mistake, the end result seems to be Trump 54.3 % Harris 45.7%.
Will know in 11 days.
I can't think of any. That's probably why I never claimed he did. lolQuote:

On non-right wing media J. D. Vance spends most of his interviews backpedaling/cleaning up the idiotic things Trump said the day before. If Trump wins he'll be doing it for the next fours years or until the 25th amendment is used. Sean Spicer and Sara Huckabee are probably laughing and saying "welcome to my world' :p
They finally got exasperated and stopped doing pressers.
One of the interesting thing about the coup against Biden is that it pretty much defangs the 25th Amendment.
If it isn't used to remove someone with such a clear case of dementia and incapacity I suspect that it can only be used now again a President actually on his deathbed.
Speaking of the Devil do we even have a President, since Biden was forced into sinecure status for his incapacity? Running the Executive Branch by Politburo is hardly Constitutional.
I watched him in a press conference just a few minutes ago where he fielded a variety of questions across the spectrum of current events effectivity. I disagree with your characterization. But I'm guessing that doesn't shock you :pQuote:

He does not have dementia tho so it's 50% less.
And we should wait after he becomes President and then remove him else it spoils all the fun! :D
You've only got to watch one of his speeches to see that he clearly does. Or do you genuinely believe that segways into electric sharks, MTG being blown up in an electric car and windmills causing cancer are a "weave"? The only weave Trump's ever experienced is his hair piece.Quote:

Trump's mental decline is demonstrably far worse than Biden's but it gets hand waved because he's been bat crap crazy for 8 years.
Alright mate,
Don't wanna spoil it for you + 100 more reasons to talk for him after the elections. ;)
It's funny watching Kamala Hindenburg go down in flames.
Even Dems running for local office are turning to endorse Trump-Vance here now. They smell the change in winds as people reject authoritarianism and a centrally-planned economy.
It feels about over, and even polls reported by left-wing corporate media now admit Trump will probably win the popular vote as well as the meaningful vote.
The only question now is how long the rioting goes on when the lunatics start burning cities again.
I predict that the USA will remain a country with a ridiculous electoral system - or a fascist dictatorship, or perhaps even both.
"The only question now is how long the rioting goes on when the lunatics start burning cities again."
I guess that will be up to Trump, it occurred when he was president.
I don't think the left wing media is quite ready to throw in the towel yet. They've kicked into high gear with their propaganda and are now aggressively regurgitating old lies about Trump. They are desperately trying to stamp the American psyche with some nonsense notion that Trump is a Nazi. It's hilarious to watch.Quote:

That made me wonder what the definition of a Nazi is.Quote:

Obviously Trump doesn't qualify for the first definition. But with all his hate speech against immigrants it would be easy to make the argument he qualifies using the second definition.Quote:
1. : a member of a German political party that controlled Germany from 1933 to 1945 under Adolf Hitler. 2. disapproving : an evil person who wants to use power to control and harm other people especially because of their race, religion, etc. a gang of racist Nazis.
Based on my past experience here with these kinds of topics I don't think my attempting to answer this would lead to a productive discussion. My posts here are more or less aimed at people who already see the same things I do.Quote:

If you are indeed genuinely curious, the best I can do is advise you to go on Twitter or YouTube. I could even recommend some people to follow. See what they have to say and draw your own conclusions but I'm not going to argue about it here and get myself worked up and banned again.
Whether they are wrong or not is debatable. But I think your right not to get involved. It's probably for the best. But if your going to make comments like in #143 your going to get push back whether want to debate the issue or not.Quote:

Good luck
Oh I have zero problem with that and if I did, I wouldn't post it publicly. Push back as much as you want, it doesn't bother me. It's my choice whether I want to debate it or not and in the interest of peace, I choose not to.Quote:

Yes, it was the Biden campaign in 2020.
lol....Beyonce couldn't save her so nothing will at this point. :DQuote:

"Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy."
Some of that applies to Trump but not all of it. He's not a militarist and he hasn't shown a propensity for centralization, arguably the opposite. What Trump is is an Autocrat and he does have some fascistic tendencies but that's not the same as being a fascist. Mostly he's not anything much except a self aggrandising narcissist.
But if we're going to hold the left to a standard of linguistic accuracy we need to hold the right, including Trump himself, to the same standard. He (and his representatives, by proxy) has called Harris, Biden and the left generally Nazis, Fascists, The Anti-Christ, Socialists and Communists. I'd like to think that even the most stump dumb of members would acknowledge that the Nazi, Fascist and Anti-Christ don't apply (if you disagree, I don't care but you're clearly not worth engaging with). I think the Socialism and Communist descriptors are worth engaging with, not because they hold any accuracy, but because I think that some members probably do believe them.
Again, from Wikipedia:-
"Socialism is an economic and political philosophy encompassing diverse economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production, as opposed to private ownership". Nobody on the left of the US political establishment, not even Bernie, is calling for the seizure of the means of production.
If you think it's OK to call the Left Socialist and Communist but not OK to call the Right Fascist then you are either ill-educated or a hypocrite. Take your pick.
Ehm, posts where deleted and people where banned for starting with the Nazi fascists interpretation, so let's all calm down and wait for 6 days before we start pointing and labeling.
What's going to change in 6 days. Whether Trump wins or loses, he is what he is.Quote:

Let's look at the bets also.
https://www.realclearpolling.com/bet...2024/president
OK he was 61 now he is at 62.8 . Is it possible that the bets are so off ? The scam of the century will be if he knows that he will not be elected and best every penny he's got to Harris! :bigyello:
It's what he's saying, among some other quite disturbing things, and if people are deciding where to put their support that's all they have to go on.Quote:
With if's and but's there is no solid subject for conversation
As for who's likely to win, betting odds don't mean much so I wouldn't bother looking at them. Polls run by media organisations (e.g. CNN and Fox) don't mean much more because the motivation behind their production isn't prediction accuracy, it's about pandering to the audience of that media. Probably the best yardstick available is independent polls, e.g. YouGov, because the motivation to produce those is predictive accuracy - if they get it right this time their stock goes up because people are more likely to believe them next time. But even independent polls are less than reliable because forecasting is an inherently unreliable problem space.
Personally, looking at the indie polls, I think Harris is going to win but I wouldn't want to imply much confidence in that. The polls are neck and neck, let alone within the margin of error, across the battle ground states. This election isn't going to come down to the number of supporters each side has, it's going to come down to how many of those supporters actually go out and vote. My Harris prediction is based on two factors: 1. Trump overperformed his polls in 2016 but has been underperforming ever since. The Dems over performed in 2018, 2020 and 2022. 2. I think turnout is going to be heavily driven by each side's fear of what the other represents. My gut feeling is that Harris supporters are somewhat more fearful of what Trump would do than Trump supporters are fearful of what Harris would do... it is only a gut feeling though.
I agree, I hope the Dem's are focusing on the turnout. It sounds like they are.Quote:

The reality is getting out to voters. They are seeing even newspeople get fed up.

A longer clip shows Ruth Marcus sputtering and then going offline, leaving only Uncle Tom there on the WaPo plantation to gradually fizzle out.
This sort of thing is really turning heads among the fence-sitters.
Let's not start reaching for the racist epithets. That won't end well. It also seems uncharacteristic for you.Quote:
...Uncle Tom...
Other than that, you're point is that a Trump supporter stormed off when pressed. I think I might be misunderstanding you.
