2024 General Election Thread

He does's give off that same kind of...weird?...vibe. Of course Santos is a LOT prettier.

Bozeman was going to seize his plan as collateral apparently.

Why was he there?

Because drunky Dr. Jackson lost his appointment as Sec of the VA because Senator Tester took seriously the investigation that found out all the shit he was doing in the White House and both Jackson and Trump resent him still, so basically he went to all this effort in the name of vengeance.

‘Maybe I’ve gotten worse’: Trump’s attempt at discipline unravels

Reportedly, that plane used to belong to Jeffery Epstein. I'm not saying it was, or that Trump knew this when he got on the plane, but apparently the people who own that plane lease it to the company that supplied the private jet Trump flew into Bozeman on.

Without interest, that comes to $1,679,000.

According to my napkin math, at least (so not in the Red Room )

*Reads up on what a Groyper is*
Ah. Another rebranding of Nazis.
For people that whine about pronouns, and PC group renamings, they sure change names a lot themselves.

Their marketing arm must be killing it. Hats, T-shirts, sneakers, diapers and ear napkin sales seem to be through the roof.

It looks like it is time to start splintering away from the main group. The writing is on the wall and you do not want Trump taking all the trumpanzee money with him on the sinking ship. In the end Trump was only a useful tool as long as he held the group together. He was always a disposable figurehead that was going to outlive his usefullness.

Once it looks like the second election is lost they will all leave. There is no loyalty and the cause was always white supremacy and not the Trump name.

He apparently used Epstein's old plane.

So much for the idea that I would fly that orange POS around with epstein's plane.

Except Ivanka.

And here I thought the meme was specifically referring to her!

That it might be a good idea for the candidate to have policies to appeal to swing voters? That's such an obvious truism that you having a problem with it just confirms my second comment - you just want everyone to STFU and get with the program. Or Jones will come back!

Reagan made a phonecall in 1982 and demanded an end to attacks on Lebanon. The Israelis stopped within an hour.
George H.W. Bush withheld loans to Israel until he was satisfied that the money would not be used for settlement activity, which were referred to by his administration as "expansionism".
George W. Bush condemned the assassination of a Hamas leader because a dozen civilians were also killed. His administration prevented Israel from striking Iranian nuclear facilities.
There are other examples.

These are not my favourite people and their approach to Israel-Palestine was far from even-handed but the Biden Administration has taken unconditional support for Israel to new extremes. Their stance is by far the worst ever and it is difficult to concieve of how it could be more so. The plausible difference is Trump won't do it with soothing diplomacy which reassures liberals that the grownups are in charge. It will be outright thuggery and therefore will meet with opposition.

There was intense debate in France followed by an electoral pact between many parties, none of whom were currently in power and involved in an active genocide. This is almost as bad as the Parnell analogy.

That's why I didn't say that "we'll see a dramatic change in US policies". It's perfectly possible to understand the American system, it's many blockages and also still think that voters should pressure candidates to change policies, even if that change will be limited. If the role of voters is merely to behave like trained seals, clapping and cheering like the morons that you see behind the candidates at campaign rallies, then democracy is already dead.

Arizona certifies abortion-rights initiative for the November ballot
Arizona's secretary of state's office announced that the 24-week limit will go up for a vote in the battleground state this year.

That's going to drive women voting in AZ. Another bad sign for Tre45on.

There's also going to be an abortion rights measure on the ballot in Nevada. If those states both end up in the Harris column, Trumplethinskin's path to his get-out-of-jail-free card gets extremely narrow.

Latest polls have him down 9 in Wisconsin, 5 in Michigan, and 4 in PA.

Obviously not a done deal but the best numbers for the Dems in ages.

They’ve swallowed the dog whistle.
