US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

Kari Lake is now 10,000 votes away from taking the lead. The votes left to count heavily favor her, and there is still like three-quarters of a million of them left.

Masters is 90,000 away, so it will be a squeaker if he makes it, there is a strong likelihood that he does.

I'm going to get downvoted for this but holy shit it needs to be said.

If you're crying about not getting a "Red Tsunami" you're not paying attention hard enough. Not only are things not necessarily as bad as you'd think for everybody everywhere, but more importantly things would have to get a fuckload worse before that would happen. Which they very, very likely are going to get a shitload worse.

Which means that if you're angry that there wasn't a complete dem blowout you're making the same mistake that the dems made in 2020, in that the immediate short-term gain is blinding you to the fact that you don't want to be the motherfuckers in charge nominally or otherwise when something like "running out of diesel" happens.

The Uniparty always wins, so we're MATI for good reason.

You guys over hyped the red wave. After 2020 I realized this whole fucking world is clown world. It’s better to laugh at the insanity than to be mad at it. It’s also better to not have faith in this system and enjoy the time you have on this earth.

Just going to point out that if the GOP does indeed take both chambers of Congress, they would, nominally, be considered in charge. And you know how the journoswines would carry water to smear every RethugKKKlikans for dead grannies who can't afford heating this winter.

Nominally, sure, but all that guarantees is deadlock, because you know Ron Klain is going to drag out Grandpa to veto anything that truly goes against Democrat interests.

And the diesel shortage isn't looking like it'd be resolving anytime soon.

I didn't want to say anything because I have a shit habit of jinxing things, but for real the ideal outcome here was a very thin loss so that they're still in control when that motherfucker of a time bomb goes off. A landslide victory would've been disastrous and everyone hoping for it/lamenting the lack of its appearance, apparently lost the plot on that one.

I legit think they didn't cheat this one much if at all, and while they might've wanted to protect some seats for obvious PR reasons I don't think much was necessary on their part, as I don't think for a second that the people who run the DNC are unaware of how bad this'll be for whoever's in charge of Congress regardless of who's sitting (napping) in the Oval Office.

The dems have a huge advantage in that many of their voters don’t actually work and are reliant on government assistance: which they increase based on inflation and give to those people in return for their votes. With mail-in ballots and other bullshit like that, they easily can stuff the dropboxes and bank votes weeks early to where they can harass people who haven’t voted and can avoid any bad performances or information doing anything to votes (no one is going to go to city hall to change their vote).

You also have TikTok and other social media bullshit swaying people. To us older folks it sounds fucking retarded that anyone would get their news from TikTok but apparently the whitehouse and dems think so since they give them an absurd amount of access to get to those Gen z voters.

 

[Zero Day Defense]

why did they try to force a 12 year old in Ohio to give birth? why did the loser governor candidate Doug mastriano say he would ban abortion with no exceptions?

Can you not blatantly lie to everyone AGAIN?

Look at how the Red Wave turned out.

Thinking about it, it seems all the refugees that fled blue states were Republican voters. Explains why known red strongholds voted red even harder and places facing a drop in population amazingly barely won which is still impressive, usually they're hard blue.

Let's see if Nevada turns red since that state always receives the largest influx's of Commiefornia refugees.

So California passed a constitutional amendment codifying the right to abortion. There’s a difference between your state being co-opted by radical communists and actually having communism in the constitution. I don’t think I can live here anymore.

Dawg, we are a couple of trannies away from having our laughs taped up

Not one to doom on the Joker/Clown World act but we aint far from the point where "watching it all burn" is considered white supremacy or some shit

This is the real American dream: pleasant white states with low crime and stable economies, governed by sensible white people, with armed white people guarding the borders to prevent Sodom & Gomorrah from migrating in.

Given California, the amendment is probably categorically worse than communism.

One underrated outcome of last night's results: Gorilla Channel-esque "anonymous source" fanfics about Trump cooked up in a room somewhere at CNN are back in fashion.

 

[The Last Stand]

This election just proves why the 19th amendment was a mistake. Women voting is always on some of the dumbest fucking issues. What kind of depraved person voted based on a perceived right to fucking infanticide? “I should be able to be a whore with no consequences.” They never ask if this has made them happier or made society a better place. Who cares if we go to war with China or Russia or can’t afford basic necessities, we need abortion!

I'm sure your mother must be proud of you.

And how long before we see advancements to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah?

Whats the summary on R/D wins/losses?

 

[The Last Stand]

MAGA salt is more bitter than DNC cope. Pick better candidates.

 

[Random Internet Person]

Whats the summary on R/D wins/losses?

R wins: nowhere near enough for them to think the country isn’t going to Hell.

D wins: enough that MAGA has been defeated for another day.
