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

 

[Whoopsie Daisy]

It very well could be the other way around with Trump needing a VP who can handle foreign affairs while he focuses on the domestic gutting of the bureaucracy.

Any other president, I would probably agree, but Putin, Kim, Benji, Hamas et al, will want to deal with Trump, in person, because he did so right by them last time. They respect him and would see it as a snub if he didn't go himself. Just try and stop the guy.

Draining the swamp can be done while dashing around the world. What Trump needs is a pacifier to keep the babies/lefties at home happy enough to let him do his thing without constant media-pushed TDS.

By God, this man is so competent & in control he should have another nuclear football within his immediate orbit.

Trump's style is not to be hands-off on anything that piques his interest. Foreign affairs - dealmaking! - and bitchslapping recalcitrant middle managers - fired! - definitely qualify

It's going to be a women, most of the avaliable choices are almost as unlikeable as Kamala herself but Republican politicians cannot help themselves.

Even though they claim to oppose them they must repeatedly signal to the left that they are not racist/sexist whatever, it's like a compulsion.

I dunno, I think Trump's entire brand is about not buying into that shit. I could totally be wrong, but I think he's open to a lot more than dragging a vag onto stage as his VP.

It makes sense on paper, undercut your opponent's biggest criticism. The problem the GOP refuses to acknowledge is that racism/sexism is just a club to beat people into compliance with to the left, and they really don't give a shit about either.

I think he's boxed in with the VP pick since he can't choose anyone attractive enough to the neolibs that they remove/replace him the first month. I worry he'll have to pick a kook.

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Actually, really too old and he's probably not interested, but i would give my left nut for Thomas Sowell.

What could have been....

If we are going with absolute fossils how about Pat Buchanan?

Jesus Christ he is only 2 years older than Pelosi and 4 older than Mitch McConnell and Biden himself. Didn't realize that. Makes it sound like he actually has a shot.

Damn the astroturfing is getting desperate.

Apparently "Dr" Jill had a fanfare composed for herself as a counterpoint to "Hail to the Chief"

Combine this with the bizarre christmas shit she did and it is obvious the fame and power have gone to her head. Bitch can't even be a Dowager Empress correctly.

Last time he picked the most conventional white bread boring ass person possible, emblematic of old school respectability

This time it'll probably be JD Vance as he's another conventional choice, young guy seen as emblematic of the Party's future

Biden support slips in deep blue New York: ‘We’re a battleground state now’ (A)

President Joe Biden has a new problem: a competitive race in deep blue New York.

Elected officials, union leaders and political consultants are panicking over polls showing a steady erosion of Biden’s support in a state he won by 23 points four years ago. They’re so worried they’ve been trying to convince the Biden team to pour resources into New York to shore up his campaign and boost Democrats running in a half-dozen swing districts that could determine control of the House.

so much winning, or manufactured panic to boost donations? you be the judge

 

[FrancineCansMcGee]

Maybe they shouldn’t have forced Trump to spend all his time in New York for weeks on end.

don't worry, the NEXT scheme to stop Trump will certainly work and couldn't possibly have an unforeseen outcome!

It'll be hilarious if this was manufactured only for genuine supporters to take it seriously and push Trump even harder, overwhelming any gibs in the process.

My guess is that Paedo Joe has required quite a bit of hand holding and logistics for most of his presidency to get him headed in the right direction after public appearances, but it’s being played up right now due to his awful debate performance.

Stop registering people to vote when they get drivers licenses. Require a separate process where you send in your birth certificate and/or U.S. passport.
Hell, universal voter ID laws where only state or federal issued photo IDs are accepted would work. No library cards, no university IDs, it must be issued by a competent state or federal authority.

If you're not a citizen, put 'THE HOLDER OF THIS IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENT IS NOT A UNITED STATES CITIZEN' on the back AND have a special marking on the front to indicate as such. Altering the identification document or misrepresenting yourself is subject to automatic deportation.

I don't understand why this is so fucking complicated. If you're an adult of voting age and for some reason can't procure an identification document, you don't have your life together nearly enough to vote. Period. Full stop. Get your shit together. Get rid of the poll tax argument by giving them away for free if $5-$25 or whatever is going to bankrupt you.

Whomever he chooses for VP, I pray that it’s not a g*dd*mn RINO. He had WAY too many of them in his first administration.

I used to think these were bots but if you go into any comments section that uses the "disqus" comment software you'll see it's filled with what I assume are boomers or older gen x types with 200k comment counts who just sit there all day spouting the same thing over and over again dick riding each other. They all eerily remind me of @Hollywood Hulk Hogan

Wish someone would make a thread about Disqus.

No matter what you come up with, they will create more and more outrageous edge cases to justify having no control. Just like with abortion, where no matter how airtight you think the compromise is they will come out and pull a "but what if a 13yo girl doesn't know what sex is and was impregnated by her forced husband in a remote cult and only has a few hours in civilization when she is 7 months along to try and stop it and she can't speak to the police or law and-" type of bullshit.

They don't want voter ID at all. They simply don't. They want no compromise or deal, it cannot exist because if it exists it makes fraud hard.
