The 2024 presidential election

[IMJ]

When you are a rich actor you have to constantly appeal to the peasant-public who could turn on you.

And so, given the rich-actor money & lifestyle, they have no real worries other than social-safety. So the rich-actor turns to the manipulation of the peasant-thinker by going on about basic "virtue plays" to keep them appeased. I.e., "the racism" or "the justice" and other things that you never real have to deal with anymore because your the key survival metric of life becomes "social management" from the have-nots.

And the peasant-thinkers eat that $#!( up, obsessed with their perceived "unfairnesses" of life.

Of course the few of them in this thread will bug-up at that, but it's really that simple. Lords manipulate the life-angry for the lord's survival, and the lord earns a "pass" from the peasant-thinker as "one of the good ones".

I got my WA mail-in voting stuff a few days ago. Which again, I've never signed up for and never registered for yet since 2016 they just keep sending it to me regardless like clockwork.

Also what's interesting... as suspected, there's Robert Kennedy as an option to vote for on the ballot, despite him very publicly dropping out a while back now in support of Trump. Pretty vile tactics here in WA. I guess a few other states are doing this as well, hoping to throw away any votes from people who just see "Ooh! Kennedy!" and don't know much else about the race.

You're in Chicago... your state is going blue. Nothing to cry about. :lol:

It's actually going quite red from all the blood from the violence in the streets from soft-on-crime democrat policies.

Damn that’s a long article :lol:

Funny, that’s what the Trump supporters are saying about the Kamala supporters.
Oh there’s a list I’m sure, no one is faultless, it’s magnitudes shorter than why Trump is unfit to lead though.

It's actually going quite red from all the blood from the violence in the streets from soft-on-crime democrat policies.
That has a lot to do with the DA in said cities, and/or the Mayors. We are dealing with the same thing in San Francisco. We already replaced one DA and close to replacing another. You can want accountability for crime and still vote blue, that's where I stand. More cities are making changes to backpeddle on overcorrecting after george floyd. SOME reform was likely needed but many cities pushed too far, and now it is slowly correcting.

Although you can't 1:1 compare Chicago to SF, very different crime situations going on. Chicago seems a lot more gang focused crime which is not as easy to deal with. Where I am it's more property crime, retail theft, drug related stuff.

Once people can't get proper help from the police they realize it needs fixing. I never said Dem governed areas were perfect, but I'm much happier living in this environment than when I lived in a red state.

Donald Trump groped me in what felt like a ‘twisted game’ with Jeffrey Epstein, former model alleges (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/23/donald-trump-accuser-stacey-williams-jeffrey-epstein)

The alleged groping occurred some months later, in the late winter or early spring of 1993, when Epstein suggested during a walk they were on that he and Williams stop by to visit Trump at Trump Tower. Epstein was later convicted on sex offenses and killed himself in prison in 2019.

Moments after they arrived, she alleges, Trump greeted Williams, pulled her toward him and started groping her. She said he put his hands “all over my breasts” as well as her waist and her buttocks. She said she froze because she was “deeply confused” about what was happening. At the same time, she said she believed she saw the two men smiling at each other.

No surprise on a lot of forums I'm on, both as a regular and mod/admin, there is a no politics rule strictly enforced. Ditto religion. Always the sources of the most arguments. Especailly when religion starts dictating politics (eg Row vs Wade overturn etc). Then it's double jeopardy.

There is so little going on in the TMNT world these days outside of the neverending stream of merch that this is the most active thread on the forum, how sad IS THAT? :lol:

Mutant Mayhem came out and it appealed highly to younger fans, but very few here liked it. So it got no discussion other than a little hate.

Then the tv series based off it came out, pretty much zero discussion.

Comics discussion also down considerably post-mutant town.

We even have a brand new video game out with some pretty nice graphics. only a few posts.

From what I heard the game was boring, more talking cut scenes than action. The only saving grace for the older fans that simply must buy TMNT stuff are the DLC skins that make the Turtles look like their 80's selves.

I'd say the most discussion would be the comics and the new merch.

We need better videogames. Shredder's Revenge got a lot of discussion back in the day, as did the Cowabunga Collection.


I never understood why forums related to cartoons and whatnot even need a politics section. Leave that **** out of here. Go vent on Facebook or Twitter about Kamala and Trump. People should be going to forums like these (and any others that are somehow still alive) to escape reality, not to vent about their real world views. Unless it's a case where the media itself incorporates (like the MAGA stand-ins in that Jennika book and all the Sophie crap when she gained full control) just keep real world politics out of here.

I guess I'd rather have a barely-alive TMNT forum barely talking about TMNT stuff than a barely-alive TMNT forum that is mostly alive because of political discussion. I mean, no matter who wins the election... the Ninja Turtles (as well as April) will still be there.

The thing is, as has been pointed out pretty thoroughly often and by others, to remove politics entirely from a TMNT discussion board would in itself be a form of censoring anyone on the right as left-leaning activists keep encroaching on entertainment and, yes, that means the TMNT as well. As we've demonstrably seen in, for example, the IDW comics. And what's been going on with April and more in other media for the past few very, let's call them "politically motivated" years.

We didn't do this. We didn't create a culture war. Our only crime is noticing what they did, and are doing, and are pointing it out.

I will handily point out here that a couple of my examples from before are actually modded by right wing Christians, and thus aside from the no religion, no politics bans, we also have no mention of any of "those" letters on top.

In my personal experience, Indian/Pakistani parenting when it comes to education especially, is some of the most toxic and soul-crushing. It's even worse when they are in a foreign land and the academic pressure makes the kids feel even more alien in a country where they are frankly, already aliens to begin with.

If Kamala wins, she definitely makes history. First woman President. First Asian American (of any sort) President, since she is bi-racial. You can also slice it down further: first african american woman president, first asian american woman president, i'm sure i'm leaving out lots of other firsts it would make.

Oh, first male "First Gentleman" (Kamala's husband)... i'm sure i'm leaving out lots of other things but those jump to mind.

This time, Trump will be joining them in prison. He might be going there even if another Jan 6th doesn't happen regardless.

The ‘Black Insurrectionist’ was actually white. The deception did not stop there (https://apnews.com/article/black-trump-kamala-harris-tim-walz-aca31c66fe5bfef1e8827581e7919ece)

WASHINGTON (AP) — “Black Insurrectionist,” the anonymous social media persona behind some of the most widely circulated conspiracy theories about the 2024 election, can be traced to a man from upstate New York.

He’s also white.

Last month, the account posted what Black Insurrectionist claimed was an affidavit from an ABC News employee, alleging Harris was given questions in advance of the network's debate with Trump — which ABC News vigorously disputed. Trump approved, though, declaring, "I love the person." More recently, Black Insurrectionist posted a baseless claim alleging inappropriate behavior between Walz and a student decades ago, a falsehood that U.S. intelligence officials said sprang from a Russian disinformation campaign.

He also owes more than $6.7 million dollars in back taxes to the state of New York.

"He's far from African American," said Kathleen Albano, who said her deceased husband was involved in a failed business venture with Palmer.

SHAMEFUL. That's putting it lightly.

[Andrew NDB]

I just meant to watch a few minutes of the Rogan podcast last night, but I ended up watching the whole thing. Rogan did a good job. He was able to wrangle Trump in many times when he'd drift off into side stories. Rogan also noticeably refused to say anything disparaging about Harris, even when he has on previous podcasts... I suspect she'll come on yet. It won't be good for her, but I think she'll feel like she has to now.

This time, Trump will be joining them in prison. He might be going there even if another Jan 6th doesn't happen regardless.

Please. Most of Trump's "horrible crimes" are manufactured-perspective the way that a boss who doesn't like you finds fault anyway they can to eventually get you fired.

This could happen to ANY President but it isn't largely done. Except now, by the deranged hater left.

Tariffs hurt his business. He's voting for Trump anyway (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0r8edwj9wlo)

For almost 35 years, Wyoming entrepreneur Alan Chadwick has run his business importing clothing from China and selling the Western-style gear to stores serving "working cowboys" in the US.

Now, as former President Donald Trump campaigns on a pledge to hit all goods coming into the country with a 10%-20% tariff, or border tax, which would rise to 60% for goods from China, Chadwick is having to drastically rethink his strategy.
The 66-year-old has been exploring moving manufacturing of his products, like wool shirts with snaps and canvas jackets, to India or Pakistan - or perhaps closing his Wyoming Traders business, which employs 16 people, and retiring altogether.

Chadwick said tariffs were a "tax on the American people" and warned that the expense for a company like his of opening a factory in the US was unrealistic.

But as he prepares to cast his ballot,he expects to swallow his qualms about tariffs in favour of other priorities, such as illegal immigration and opposition to abortion.

"I will vote for Trump even though he's going to hurt our company if he does what he says he's going to do," he said.
Chadwick's readiness to look past Trump's views on tariffs is a sign of the contradictory impulses shaping American politics.

There are so many idiots in this country. Cultists can't help but go down with the burning building just like they did in Waco.

Hardly, the US has spent $64bn to date aiding Ukraine since early 2022. So more like 18 months worth of aid to Ukraine then to get rid of illegals, not 3 months.

In the context of matters, the aid to Ukraine per year so far is still 2.5% of the overall yearly US military budget. Maybe trim that a bit to remove illegals?

Hardly, the US has spent $64bn to date aiding Ukraine since early 2022.


As of June 30, 2024, since February 2022 the U.S. Congress had appropriated more than $174.2 billion in supplemental funding for the U.S. response to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The most recent supplemental appropriation was signed into law on April 24, 2024 provided nearly $61 billion to address the conflict in Ukraine, of which approximately $48.4 billion will be administered by the DoD, $11.6 billion by State and USAID, and nearly $1 billion for other U.S. Government agencies.

And what, is the hope that the guys at missile building companies that get the Ukraine contracts will take those bonuses and, what, buy extra stuff on Amazon? To go into sales tax to go to schools to better teach kids about systemic racism or something? I'm not sure how this is helping anybody.

Outrage grows over Puerto Rico ‘island of garbage’ racist jibes during Trump MSG rally

There goes the leftists... getting mad at comedians again. smdh

[CyberCubed]

my first vote ever, and it's going to be for trump.

The Lefties have proven they are INSANE at this point, and this is an election where it finally feels like the outcome matters.

I feel like this time, there are alot of people like me.

This is the first time you've ever voted in your entire life? Aren't you in your mid-40's?

[IMJ]

There goes the leftists... getting mad at comedians again. smdh

It's all they've got. Narrative twisting and dishonest tactics. Honestly after studying the psychology for years and knowing the habits of various criminals and their embedding tactics you'd be amazed at how these people hide themselves by literally saying their crime but putting it on other people. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if a few of the Harris supporters in this very thread are pedophiles or other deeply corrupted people themselves.

That's literally how people who embed in mania like this operate. The left tactic is to DO the very thing they claim they are fighting. Like Harris' interview routine - empty platitudes about "lifting up people" side-by-side with deep Trump-assaults, but nothing of merit. Literally nothing at all.

[Coola Yagami]

Honestly, despite all the Trumpamania stuff, the dude is only getting support from his regulars. He's not getting any new support. And doing stuff like calling out Detroit while in Detroit and other nonsense is not helping his case any.

Honestly after seeing the drama break down at his rallies all I see a whole bunch of people that would want to see me dead. Like, I don't see a single Hispanic or black person in the entire rally. The camera can't be panning to the only-white parts of the rally all the time. But I thought half the country loved Trump.

I mean let's be honest. I could show up at one of those rallies, wearing a Trump shirt and the cursed red hat, and they'd still want to deport me, if not beat the **** out of me. And my only crime would have been to show up support the orange goof which should be my god-given right as an American. But heeeey guess I'm just the wrong skin tone, eh?

There used to be someone in the UK with this type of slogan in the past, and he was a peadophile too...!

You are not calling people here pedophiles for hating on Trump.

Naw, I'm just looking at live footage from the some of the rallies, all I see is a sea of white, and I bet at least half of em are racists. Face it dude, you're also Hispanic or half Hispanic. Even if you showed up there decked in red, white and blue and had your MAGA hat on, you wouldn't exactly be made to be felt too welcome there, assuming they even let you in and don't tell you 'you lost or something, beaner? I don't think you're in the right place, or country'.

Nonsense. And you do see a lot of black guys at most of these (and the camera makes sure you see them). And it's one thing for black guys or Hispanic guys to publicly "support" Trump... it's quite another to physically show up at one of these rallies. Or even to show up at any kind of rally. That's generally only a certain type of person.

Didn't see any at that Detroit rally. Or the one where he left early and people had to find their way home. Even when they show parts where the stands are kinda empty, it's still all white folks. They show footage of people leaving, all white folks. Trumps did a little dance the other day, all white folks attending that one too. Like the point isn't to show white folks but to show the latest 'Trump did what? Trump said what?' and it just so happens it's nothing but white folks at the scene.

And I'm talking about showing up at the rallies. I mean if 'we're' (and I[m only saying we as an example, don't count me into that) all Trumps fans, should we not be able to attend the rallies to show our support and be completely safe and sound regardless our skin color?

And now do you see the issue many of us have with those who support Trump, because they follow his same principles of “screw the non whites”? I may not like you for your comments or your political views, but I’m certainly not going to be hating you because of your skin colour.

“Strength Through Joy”

Huh.

Speaking of hurtful jokes, George Lopez made a joke about Mexicans naturally being thieves at a Walz rally, and people are arguing that he’s allowed to make those kinds of jokes because he’s Hispanic. Okay, but if I compare people who are viscously arguing over the Israel-Palestine conflict to the angry mob of high school girls in the movie Mean Girls, I get called a self-loathing sexist. Just admit, “It’s okay if we do it.”

The shock comic who opened for Trump at MSG was planning to call Harris a "c*nt" in his set. It got flagged by the campaign:

Trump’s Shock Comic Was Set to Call Harris a ‘C*nt’ (https://www.thebulwark.com/p/trumps-shock-comic-was-set-to-call?r=1edyjz&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true)

DONALD TRUMP’S CAMPAIGN WAS LEFT scrambling Sunday night after roast-comic Tony Hinchcliffe made insulting jokes about Hispanic and black people on stage at the ex-president’s Madison Square Garden rally.

The lines sparked immediate backlash and even condemnation from fellow Republicans. But four top campaign sources said it could have been even worse.

“He had a joke calling [Vice President Kamala] Harris a ‘****,’” a campaign insider involved in the discussions about the event told The Bulwark. “Let’s say it was a red flag.”
Campaign staffers had asked all speakers to submit drafts of their speeches ahead of time—before they were loaded into the teleprompter—according to the aforementioned sources. Once the objectionable “****” joke was spotted, the sources said, a staffer asked Hinchcliffe to strike it. He complied.

Anyone saying the trump campaign has nothing to do with the comments is lying. They said right here that they removed the 'c-word' from his set. Which means they approved all the other things. They approved the puerto rico comments, the ones about jews, blacks, etc.

Elon is vile. Maybe we can deport him after Trump loses. It's the least he deserves.

I was never on his side. I was getting tired of people being obsessed over the guy wether you're for or against. Like ok you love/hate the guy. Move the **** on and don't make it your entire personality.
We are tired too. We don't sit around with joy in our hearts talking about all the insane crap Trump and his orbiters spew out. It's cause we object to that being normalized. We want better for our country and we ARE FORCED to talk about it because it's how we can protest it. To not protest this insanity is immortal and unjust. Look at all the people he wants to harm and take rights away from and livelihoods away from. I will not say nothing.

Get rid of Trump and the rhetoric will die down and we can start to all feel normal again and go about our lives. There is ONE SIDE escalating things and it's not Kamala's.

VOTER FRAUD!

https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/woman-forged-dead-moms-signature-ballot-charges/

ITASCA COUNTY, Minn. — A 50-year-old Minnesota woman is facing voter fraud charges after signing her dead mom's signature on two absentee ballots.

On Oct. 9, the Itasca County Auditor contacted the Itasca County Sheriff's Office about possible voter fraud involving two absentee ballots, charges say. The ballot envelopes weren't opened, but flagged for fraud based on the signature envelopes.

The ballots, which were received Oct. 7 by the auditor's office, were for the woman and her mother. The criminal complaint, citing the Minnesota Vital Statistics Death Report of Itasca County, said the mother died on Aug. 31.

On Oct. 11, the sheriff's office spoke to the woman, who said she filled out her mother's absentee ballot and signed her mom's name on the signature envelope, the complaint says. The woman said her mom was an avid Donald Trump supporter and had wanted to vote for him, but had passed away before the absentee ballots were received.

The woman, according to the complaint, also said she filled out her own absentee ballot and signed her mother's signature as the witness.

She faces two counts of intentionally signing false certificates and one count of casting an illegal vote or adding another.

Something something projection

and that's before we talk about the ballot boxes being found on fire in liberal voting areas. But thankfully they identified the person's vehicle. arrest should be forthcoming.

How Trump Goes to Prison If he loses the race for the White House, the big house awaits. (https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/trump-prison-election.html)

Donald Trump is facing an extreme sliding-doors scenario on Election Day. If he wins, he would have the power to single-handedly scuttle the federal criminal cases against him, be immune from prosecution while in office, and, thanks to the Supreme Court, have broad immunity from prosecution once — if — he leaves. If he loses, though, he will face criminal penalties that could leave him in command of a 70-square-foot prison cell for most of the rest of his life.

“He will be facing serious legal jeopardy if he loses. He knows that,” says Bennett Gershman, a professor of constitutional law at Pace Law School who served for a decade as a New York prosecutor. “It’s probably on his mind every day. He faces four very, very serious cases, in one of which he has already been convicted as a felon. The others are easily convictable.”

The minute it becomes clear that Trump has lost the election, his legal team will be preparing for the fight of a lifetime to keep him out of prison. “This defendant will use every means at his disposal to delay the outcome and complicate the adjudication,” says Martin Horn, a professor of corrections at John Jay College and the executive director of the New York State Sentencing Commission. “Who knows what legal maneuvers are available to him?”

Here is a look at where the four cases against Trump stand and how they might play out.

With a Harris victory we will have a LOT to celebrate.

The polls for this election are the weirdest I have ever seen. In any other year, there was a very clear lean towards one candidate. This year it's nothing like that at all and all forecast models I'm following show an almost literal 50:50 race.

If you live in a swing state and want to make a difference, get everyone you know out to vote. Turnout is more important than ever.

we have never been more divided, and this is the LAST thing we needed. ANOTHER close election.

People always roll their eyes when someone supports the side they don't like. Big deal. But when you start looking at what kind of people are supporting one side, and which kind of people are supporting the other, it sure paints a very interesting picture. Putting it lightly.

Honestly, beyond things like this board or little chats with people IRL or otherwise I don't think I'll dip my toe into much into the political sphere for the next week. It's just not worth looking at until its in the rearview now. The left is going full hog with their last desperate bit of ammo they always reserve for when they have nothing else left ("he's actual Hitler!" "threat to democracy!" "This is exactly like Berlin," "Remember, we came THIIIS close to losing the whole country on January 6th!" etc.) so that's not exactly going to provoke any kind of productive conversation, to say nothing of division, and the other side is going to run the risk of getting cocky and saying dumb things and making everybody go "reeeeEEEEEEE!!!" that is either in the media or a bluehair which is just annoying to sit back and look at or listen to.

[Zulithe]

Look, I'm a white dude and natural born citizen living in a very progressive state. If Trump were to win, I'm fully insulated from everything that could possibly go wrong sans a nuclear war or something on that level. My life isn't impacted. My views on policies are for the greater country and people in other states, who I want to see have the best lives possible. I will feel their pain but much like 2016-20 I can weather it, and my state can weather it.

It's to close to 50/50 chance of either candidate that you could literally flip a quarter to decide who wins and the odds would be no different, which is scary and sad to me, but it's what it is...

We'll be having champagne on election evening at my household. Either I'll be celebrating or I'll be drowning my sorrows, what else can be done at this point.

[Andrew NDB]

It's to close to 50/50 chance of either candidate

The saddest part to me is that it IS that close. It really shouldn't be. Not for people that have held a job, have a family, have two eyes and ears and have been sentient for the past 3 1/2 years. It just boggles the mind.

I think that's the harris campaign putting low value on doing the interview, because they know rogan doesn't travel to do interviews but they wanted to flex anyway to see if he'd capitulate

Rather she wins or loses I guess we can look back and decide rather missing the interview matters much or not.

I'd totally watch it but don't care all that much especially at this late stage of the election cycle.

You are 100% right.

My support for Trump is rooted in feelings.

If hypothetically, Trump became liberal tomorrow, I'd still follow his charisma and I would become a liberal. But that would never happen because Trump's charisma comes from his radical right wing views.

I'm kinda bowing out til the election is over and we have a winner, not counting any posts I might make in the TMNT comic section.

In my opinion Kamala is the lesser of the two evils. I can put up with four years of woke. I can simply not watch the movies, not buy the videogames, not buy the comics, vote with my wallet. But four years of that goofball, people emulating his views and all the Project 2025 stuff? Risk getting deported even though I'm an American born citizen just based on the color of my skin? Plus the dude wants to get rid of elections so you'd never have to vote again? And other such nonsense? No thanks. I'll just ignore the trans flags. I'd rather deal with minor annoyances than larger consequences.

And he wasn't right wing all his life.

Exactly. As soon as Trump became right wing and announced his run for the presidency, he tapped into long held beliefs among the populace.

These beliefs always existed, but Trump's charisma brought them out from the dark and gave them newfound publicity. He is the biggest gift to right-wing nationalists in living memory.

[Andrew NDB]

As soon as Trump became right wing

Did he, though? He's probably the most centrist president we've ever seen, in terms of actual policy. He's like a more pragmatic New York liberal.

[Mayhem]

The saddest part to me is that it IS that close. It really shouldn't be. Not for people that have held a job, have a family, have two eyes and ears and have been sentient for the past 3 1/2 years. It just boggles the mind.
It shouldn’t be, yes. How Trump is anywhere near close to Harris is damning on voters in general. Really is **** your feelings…

[Zulithe]

Trump only appears centrist on the surface. Look at the judges he appointed, because he's easily manipulated by the republicans around him that are advising him. And they overturned roe v wade. Doesn't matter if you don't give a **** about roe, millions upon millions of americans do and find it unforgivable from a health care stance and women's rights stance.

and that's just the #1 example off the top of my head.

And project 2025 is real. to expand on what i just said... doesn't matter what trump says in public, lol. HE IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE FAR RIGHT REPUBLICANS TO GET WHAT THEY WANT, just like with roe. Trump doesn't create policy, the people around him do and he just nods his head at whatever sounds good. They know this that's why project 2025 was created in the first place, to give them a document to work from.

Here is what Trump would do for his second term: immediately disembowel any legal threats against him, which is his #1 priority. Then play golf at least 70% of his term (just like he did in his first term) while republicans farther right than he is develop and push agendas from project 2025. Then every once in a while trump will do rally cause he needs it for his ego.

As I think I've noted before, there was a time when one party won but would work with the other party to find common policies to move America forward. That's long gone since the days of Reagan, and now you hear more bickering, mud slinging, and vitriol about "the other party" than actual constructive policies. More "I'm not going to talk about what we will do, but look at what THEY will do if they get into power".

Good. Every person who crosses the border illegally has committed a crime as their very first action coming into the country. If blue states are refusing to go after criminals, why should my Tax dollars go to that?

Re: Everyone quoting celebrities endorsing this person or that...

Stop. Why are you taking advice from celebrities because most of them are smart enough to have hired someone to do their thinking for them while they make art. The closest person to have an opinion that might mean something is the "Governator" and whoever wrote that for him talked a pretty good game.

Basically 1 in 20 people living in Florida alone would be deported based on Trumps plans. And this is just one state.

[Mayhem]

The important bits from the article being…

The annual U.S. GDP could drop by as much as 6.8%, according to the report, while government tax coffers that pay for schools and other critical services would also take a hit. Undocumented immigrants paid nearly $77 billion in local, state, and federal taxes in 2022, the researchers found.

And while undocumented immigrants cannot tap into federal social-safety net programs such as Social Security and Medicare, those programs would lose out on tens of billions of dollars in tax contributions should undocumented immigrants be deported.

So they pay in $77bn and don’t take out SS or Medicare… what was that about living on benefits and sponging off the system?

[Bahamut810]

You do realise he’s also going after non citizens who are legally allowed to stay in the US, right?

Normally I would ask for a citation, but I don't care because I don't like Trump. A broken clock is right twice a day and in this instance...he is right. The biggest part that I agree is that the places that would be affected by this aren't deporting 'more serious' criminals...they are protecting them from deportation. If they decide they want to protect them from being sent back to their own countries to commit crimes there then they are welcome to the taxes those people probably arent paying.

I am glad everyone else pay taxes...but if they commit crimes but still value being here then they can get in legally and pay those taxes again.

Now that we're near the end, I'll be genuinely surprised if Trump wins. It just doesn't seem like it to me, but what do I know? I guess we'll see, but I'm guessing he's not going to be elected.

Basically 1 in 20 people living in Florida alone would be deported based on Trumps plans. And this is just one state.

putting aside the fact that a lot of them have some legal standing for staying here, just from a state income perspective alone this would be hard on the state. people all buy food, buy clothes, electronics, services, pay taxes on every purchase they make, pay bills, fill jobs a lot of other people would not want to do, on and on.

I do agree we have a housing crisis in most highly populated places in the usa, so it might help on that part A LITTLE, but I think we all are aware by now that lower income people tend to live many people to a household so it wouldn't clear up as much housing as a lot of people think.

In short, this has more of a negative impact than most people are seeing on the surface.

Naa, I mean I completely agree with the sentiment behind his words. I just don't think giving them that easy outrage bait was worth it. The race is super tight dems don't need to give the other side anything worth energizing over. Of course they see it as a badge of honor, just like 'deplorables' (another true thing about them, in the literal sense)

And it's not because I have full disdain for all of the argument on the right, I can actually agree with a few of them. Just not enough to get me on their side. I do think that sacrificing so much about your party to get behind Trump who has abhorrent opinions and is a complete narcissist nutjob is severely damaging to their platform and once Trump is gone we aren't gonna let them forget it who they supported. Own it or we'll make you own it.

I will note that the majority of what are labelled as "undocumented migrants" came in legally to the country and never left. For example, Elon Musk here, student or temporary work visas/permits, and declined to leave the country when they expired. Yes, people are crossing the border illegally but they are very much the minority of immigrants.

[Andrew NDB]

How does the flourishing economy fit the ‘everything falling apart‘ narrative?

They can keep saying that but nobody is either seeing it or believing it but the True Believers.

For all the talk about wages going up I know I personally haven't seen any pay raises in almost 2 years (and even then it wasn't a raise as much as it was a promotion/transfer), and the company I work for barely has any money for anything anymore (less and less every year) despite doing roughly the same amount of business as 3 years ago. And they can tout the rate of inflation increases has slowed but everything is still sky high at the counter and is certainly not showing any sign of reversing course.

Literally, a $5 footlong is now like $19. That's what I get every other day. And steaks? Forget about ever buying steaks again. This is crazy town. Compound that with things like, "We believe schools should be able to trans your kids and not tell you about it," "There's not an open border! But IF there was -- and we're totally not saying there is -- that'd be a GOOD thing! In fact, we'd want even more judges around to turn the faucet on illeg -- erm, immigration even higher!" "We're not trying to take away anyone's guns! Except, you know, the ones that we keep saying we are. And boy, a buyback program like Australia would be awesome!" "This country is all stolen land and we want to make sure white kids are taught to be ashamed!" "There is systemic racism and this needs to be taught and beat into everyone's brains at the earliest age possible!" "LGBTQ flag is equivalent to the American flag... in fact, it's better!" "Hamas is misunderstood! It's OK to hate the country and burn flags on college campuses." "Free money, for all! Especially for our leftist pet projects, never mind that we're in an inflationary cycle and the prices of everything are already sky high." Forget about it. It's a wrap.

Unedited photo of trump from today… ahahahahahaha. Imagine telling your grandchildren you supported this clown.

Yes, it's good to know that neither Biden or Kamala have ever had a not-great picture taken of them ever, at any time, of any split second of time. It's only Trump that gets bad pictures, ever.

I agree there. If it was someone like that instead then I can't fathom how the election would be poised to be as close as it is right now. If Trump wins, it will be in spite of him being Trump, really. That there will have been enough independents able to look past media hysteria and TDS (whether their own or what is being projected around/at them), bite their lip and vote for him anyway, which in turn will be a true testimonial for how people are truly pissed off at the current state of things under Biden-Harris.

The ignorance in this statement s astounding!

I think public perception is noteworthy and don’t even try to claim that people that feel that way are being duped!

I was approaching it from the "Trump might die in office" angle since he will be 82 by the end of a second term or he might get assasinated since prior attempts inspire copycats.

Both scenarios, as morbid as I think they are, would boost Trump's popularity as someone who died on the job and they would lead to a young successor filling his shoes.

I'm not a Marvel guy and I've never seen Avengers but I think Trump's Avengers team would be:

Trump, Putin, Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping, Viktor Orban, and the leader of the Taliban

Obviously no one from that other boring Avengers team will endorse him, not that I care.

That... is like the political version of people who have an unhealthy fetish for prison inmates.

[Cowabung-Gal]

Well.... they're purposely voting for their own destruction. So yeah, they aren't all that bright.

Actually, Congress has been pushing for a mandatory military draft for both men and women. If women continue to surrender their rights and liberties to the warmongering machine just because of, you know, abortions, they’re doomed anyway. We need to take more power away from the government instead of giving more to them. They’re not our saviors or our superiors; they serve and represent us.

Good, everyone should register for the draft even if we are doing everything we can to stay away from it. One of my semi-hypocritical views is that all Americans should be ready to defend our nation and the Govmnt can help organize that.

Without mandatory drafting for women, women literally have more rights then men do. Without registering for the draft, men have the privilege to vote where women have the *right* to vote. If they don't sign up Men can be charged with a felony, get thrown in jail and lose their voting privilege and a multitude of other government progams.

Yes Trump and those who ardently support him when he says we should execute political opponents are the true voice of reason.

[ranger_scout]

Joe Walsh, who is a big Trump critic, said that Trump was not saying that Cheney should be executed.

Trump did NOT call for Liz Cheney to be executed.

This is what’s so wrong with our politics today. Look, you know how I feel about Trump, and I’ve been out there every day for 2-3 months campaigning my ass off to help get @KamalaHarris elected, but this short clip is so deceptive. Trump is NOT calling for Liz Cheney to be executed in front of a firing line. He’s not. Listen to the entirety of what he said. In Trump’s typically stupid, ugly fashion, he’s trying to make a point about Cheney’s stance on war. But Aaron (who I like & respect), by posting ONLY this 11 second clip, makes it look like he’s calling for her to be executed. He’s not. He’s an utterly horrible human being who’s utterly unfit for office, but the truth should always matter. And the truth is that Trump is not calling for Liz Cheney to be executed. But…this 11 second clip will have a gazillion views, and the truth will have just a handful of views.

WHAT?! You mean to tell me the media have been taking Trump's words out of context and using them to further an agenda?!

[Zulithe]

He's expressing, in public and to a crowd, how he'd like to see how 9 guns trained on her face. There is no out of context way of reading the comments happening here. Trying to sanewash or rationalize why a presidential nominee would ever make a comment like that is beyond the pale.

The only additional context you need is that he has made similar comments about her in the past, this is part of a pattern of violent rhetoric from Trump directed at political opponents.

Maybe Trump and his campaign can stop hurling insults at opponents long enough to talk about real policy for a change. If it even matters at this point, case in point:

Oh wait, that's a MAGA Karen freaking out, begging Trump to "save us," and saying that Biden was "talking with some kind of crazy flag."

That "crazy flag" this moron was referring to was the flag of the state of Delaware (my home state), where he was speaking from after he won the election or around that time. If you can't even figure out a state flag and have a conniption over it... :roll:

And people like this vote and think they know what's best.

They are not oppressed. They're either poorly educated and get all their information from social media or they have warped morals and brush off everything bad about Trump because they like his isolationist policies. Sometimes both?

So wait, I guess Trump voters think that if Kamala is elected that we will have a nuclear war on American soil, sure Jan.

As for the abortion thing, I just don't want the government controlling people's personal health care choices. Something Republicans USUALLY would agree with (any kind of government interference) But since abortion is a religious issue to them, they feel compelled to force their religious choices onto other people. None of that is okay to me.

Here is the kind of scenarios we end up with with abortion bans, new article from today

A Pregnant Teenager Died After Trying to Get Care in Three Visits to Texas Emergency Rooms
It took three ER visits and 20 hours before a hospital admitted Nevaeh Crain, 18, as her condition worsened. Doctors insisted on two ultrasounds to confirm “fetal demise.” She’s one of at least two Texas women who died under the state’s abortion ban.

https://www.propublica.org/article/nevaeh-crain-death-texas-abortion-ban-emtala

[Andrew NDB]

You say nuclear war, yet the meme is just mostly saying our current climate. Whether it's at the grocery store or renting an apartment or anything else you can point at.

[Cowabung-Gal]

As for the abortion thing, I just don't want the government controlling people's personal health care choices.

Hope you feel the same way about vaccines.

https://www.propublica.org/article/nevaeh-crain-death-texas-abortion-ban-emtala

Regarding this particular case, it wasn’t an abortion issue. It was a malpractice and misdiagnosis issue. Medical malpractice happens in all states, not just the ones with abortion ban laws, but of course, the states that do have abortion bans get all the attention because of, you know, political reasons, and we are just a couple of days away from the election. It’s shameful that they’re using this tragedy to get people riled up and making it seem like it was an abortion ban issue when it wasn’t.

[Mayhem]

Serious question, why are most republicans poor, barely have any studies beyond High School, ignorant of the world in general?
Because they are the easiest to dupe and manipulate, especially considering many of them are also rabid religionists. But there are plenty of not so well off Democrats, so there isn’t a direct correlation between education and standing, and political opinion. Only that Democrats tends to be better educated, on average slightly higher IQ, and I believe you don’t tend to find many Republican leaning scientists and researchers.

[Bahamut810]

So wait, I guess Trump voters think that if Kamala is elected that we will have a nuclear war on American soil, sure Jan.

I think there is a better chance that WMDs will be used if Harris is elected. I would guess *if* it would happen someone else would use them first. Trump is himself a deterrent for this sort of things. Depending on who you believe he is either working closely with WMD capable enemies of the people, or that he is such a strong leader other leaders fear him, or that he is just sitting there with his finger on the launch buttons going "bring it so I can show you my Nuke-wang", or just that he is easy to work with because of his self interest...which ever view that other 'enemy' leaders have of him will be more favorable then whatever Harris is going to bring. If I were to guess, *if* Harris wins and *if* something happens then next year Taiwan is going to be invaded and WW3 starts. If WW3 starts then WMDs will be used on the American public because that would be their only hope of winning.

I dont think either candidate is ready for military action or war. Trump is...Trump and Harris is a career politician who will only care about optics rather then saving american lives.

Well, thanks to government, he’s now dead.

THIS is why I keep saying, THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT NEED MORE POWER!

Someone (a Karen or some jealous loser) files a complaint and our good friends from the government raid this guy’s home, take Peanut the squirrel and Fred the raccoon away, and euthanize them so that they could be “tested for rabies”.

THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A CASE OF RABIES TRANSMITTED TO A HUMAN FROM A SQUIRREL.

See, they think we the People are just stupid sheep that they could just control.

These animals were healthy and well taken care of. There was no reason for the government to step in and murder them. But then again, this is New York, where criminals are given a slap on the wrist and let go but your beloved pet could be put to death by the state.

[IndigoErth]

Government or not (because even the humane society that's typically a non-profit will also at times euthanize animals), that's stupid of anyone to put those animals down if they were healthy. There's no reason not to find a new home for them if they can't be released into the wild.

There's a zoo I've been too in MD a handful of times over the years that is largely made up of rescued animals, likewise taken from homes they may have outgrown or been owned illegally, or taken in for other specific reasons. Places like that DO exist. And while a zoo isn't necessarily THE ideal option, it's animals that can't really be returned to the wild.

Forcing things on people is a good thing, as long as the right things are being forced.

I don't agree with religious folk who insist they only want free choice. Free choice favours the (insert liberal group here), not the traditional religious believer who will lose the arguement from choice every single time.

I know people from both camps here don‘t care much about them for different reasons but I need to address this year‘s polls for a bit: I‘ve said it before but this is the weirdest year for polls I have ever seen. In most swing states the races are so close that you have to wonder whether pollsters are trying to overcompensate for the big misses in state polls from the last two elections. If everything‘s basically 50/50, you cannot be held accountable, right?

Then there are even weirder polling days like yesterday when Harris got a +3 poll from one of the most reputable pollsters in the US in Iowa of all places but an hour later another poll shows a +9 Trump lead there. Similarly, a week ago there was a +20 poll for Harris in New Hampshire and shortly later a tied poll. What the hell is going on?

Mathematically the result is not going to be close, especially when it comes to the actual number of electorals. With most battleground states being basically tied, you just need a small systematic error into one direction for one candidate to sweep all swing states.

Yeah the polling has certainly been strange this cycle. Some pollsters have claimed they started weighting their polls to try to compensate for past cycles while others have said they aren’t doing that. Who really knows? My guess is either Trump wins rather soundly or Harris just wins it. It’s just a guess and worth about as much as anyone else’s?:tlol:

[Prowler]

I don't understand why Trump has a cult legion behind him to the point of even gaining fans from all around the world. I've seen people of many different nationalities, including my own, all aboard the Trump train. This makes the popularity of Obama back in the day look like nothing in comparison.

And even if people don't like his opponents... how exactly is Trump any better? And why do his cult followers believe everything he's been accused of is a lie? And why do they believe he cares for the working class and the poor when he was born into money and has always been filthy rich? He's literally the type of person the system works for.

What policies did he even implement when he was president the first time? Serious question, what did he even achieve in order for a lot of people to still blindly follow him?

I don't get it. And no, him not being "the other guy/girl" isn't good enough of an explanation for me.

I looked at some of this, most polls are 1000 people tops. That's a lot to extrapolate, and entirely down to who you ask. A few people one way or the other might dramatically swing the view.

He already hosted the show two times already.
Before he was President. It's a whole different world now especially in MAGA hell given the US had to suffer four years of his tenancy. He'd have the absolutely living crap ripped out of him if he went on today. As was noted above, you could almost argue that going on was a pubicity boost for his presidential run.

Yeeeeah.

And pollsters. Yeesh. This is ridiculous. I'm almost 100% convinced these guys are 100% convinced they don't know what they're doing. And by that I mean obviously polls aren't anywhere near 100% accurate... and almost nobody knows anyone who has ever taken one. And the ones I've heard running them talk about them mostly say they're trying to adjust for this and that and the other... so I'm pretty much just left with the pretty educated assumption that all of these guys are just jigging and jagging to not go one way and end up wrong and shotgunning their credibility going forward. So they just keep ejaculating polls where it's 1% this way, or 3% that way, throwing their hands up. And now, I don't think this is coming from a place of deception... I just think this is coming from a place of "If this goes the other way, we want to be trusted when the smoke settles." Because they know they have no idea. The average "Trump Voter" isn't exactly ballyhooing it across the valley, and all.

There will definitely be people raging the votes were "rigged" if Trump loses, the same happened when he lost to Biden 4 years ago. Let's hope there are no riots this time. Or better yet, they can throw all those people in jail again. :lol:

The most important question of them all, if Trump wins this time, will we get four more seasons of President Garrison or will the president in South Park actually be Trump this time?
