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

What is with the lefty obsession with these fake stories of children supporting their political causes?

If a kid can see the right thing then that clearly means rethugliKKKans are dumber than kids.

So it was a coup then.

I mean, what meaningful power Jill has aside from whatever she gets from being her husband's proxy? She has no base, no support and most certainly not part of either the Obamanite or Clintonista faction. She was never going to have a say in the matter.

Um... has Kamala formally entered the race? (As in announced herself that she's running) And how long until she gets Clintoned?

Funny how she hasn't tweeted or done anything isn't it. She might be locked up or something.

i'm kinda scared kiwibros, because at least Kamala can talk (unlike senile Joe), and the American electorate is on average very very dumb, we could get snookered into a situation where the Dems go for plausibility for their election night steal

She has no choice but to ditch much of the DNC messaging.


How are you going to win denying immigration is a problem when 60% of voters put it near to the top of their issues. And with Democrats it's the black constituency that is very concerned about it.

If she doesn't U Turn on it or she gets mealy mouthed about it then she just kissed half the black vote away. They won't turn out or even give her a togo plate at the cookout.

I can see the tweet now. "Kamala duddnt even sezun her food"

I was sitting there drinking my chai latte and reading the New Yorker before going to my shift as a neosurgan when my three year old came up to me.

“Daddy, I don’t get it?”

“Get what?”

“How can people fall for racism and fascism.”

I nearly spit out my chai and gasped. He continued “Because of project 2025 my transsexual and nonbinary friends will be genocided if Trump is elected. How can he have such hate in his heart?”

That’s when a white man with a nazi flag on his cap walked into my kitchen. “Heh. Welcome to MAGA country you little faggot nigger. Now prepare for me to George Floyd your little neck.” I stood up and prepared to fight, but my three year looked at him and said “Sir, you don’t need this hatred and transphobia. Please, accept Harris as the next president and become a thinker, not a believer.”

“By golly, you are right! I’ll suck a lady dick right now and vote blue! I’m a changed man!”

“Namaste” - my child said. I’m so proud of him. Like and share if this inspired you!!

My money is on a complete disaster.

Joe's dead.

But the Dems don't want to admit it, because they don't control the House so the Speaker of the House being moved to VP fucks up all their plans.

That's what's with the panic.

They'll announce it Monday or Tues, after hiding it.

My money's on he died this morning or late last night.

That would explain the complete lack of any press conference, but how would Elon Musk know about this for a week then?

Maine had considered that legal theory and dismissed it:

https://www.maine.gov/sos/news/2023/Decision%20in%20Challenge%20to%20Trump%20Presidential%20Primary%20Petitions.pdf

That just says he can't be prevented from running just because he said he had won twice as officially he lost the 2020 election. If they were to suddenly rule that actually he officially won the 2020 election then he would have officially won twice.

 

[errforceonezz]

so now that all of the polling is kind of irrelevant lets see what exists for Trump vs Harris for the states that I find interesting

Maine: no data
New Hampshire: Trump +2 (vs Biden this is currently Biden +3) - This is from back in December, this was from Trafalgar who also polled Trump +2 vs Biden at the same time, and these are both outliers.
New York: no data
New Jersey: no data
Pennsylvania: Trump +4 (vs Biden this is Trump +4.5)
Virginia: no data
North Carolina: Trump +9 (vs Biden this is Trump +5.7) - This is from a single poll from back in February.
Georgia: Trump +7.5 (vs Biden this is Trump +4.0) - This one has actually been being polled consistently over the last month and shows pretty bad numbers for Harris.
Michigan: Harris +2 (vs Biden this is Trump +2.1) - This one is from way back in October/November of last year in a NY Times/Siena poll, which at the same time also showed a Biden Trump matchup as Trump +5.
Wisconsin: Trump +1.5 (vs Biden this is Trump +3.3) - There is one recent poll here from within the last month that has Trump +1.
Minnesota: no data
Arizona: Trump +6.3 (vs Biden this is Trump +5.8ㅤ) - There is one poll from this month that is Trump +6.
Nevada: Trump +9 (vs Biden this is Trump +5.6) - There is one poll from this month that is Trump +10.

National: Trump +1.7 (vs Biden this is Trump +3)

And how long until she gets Clintoned?

You mean how long before she gets beaten by Trump? 3.5 months.

 

[HOMO FOR LIFE RETURNS]

Harris presidency might bring about the end of the world. Literally. Nuke and all.

Pls.

Vote her in.

@errforceonezz the chomo joe vs TRUMP polling isn't irrelevant, it functions as a decent baseline upon which Kamala may either

-overperform (likely only a bit; I have a hard time seeing her do much better than chomo joe - she's tied to 'his' administration, it's been the "Biden-Harris" ticket and the "Biden-Harris" administration for years)

-or even underperform (personally I think Kamala isn't quite as weak a candidate as many on the Right reflexively portray her to be, but she definitely still is a weak candidate)

 

[Otterly]

The Day of the Pillow approaches.

They’re going to kill him. Actively by just giving or withholding medication . If the only way he can be removed from ballots in some states is death then death it’ll be. Two assassination/assassination attempts in a month.

Assuming this was either a stroke (made more likely by dementia drugs) or a severe dementia incident (More likely as resistance to drugs increases) well...

Yes!

The only real question was when the drug cocktail would become more damaging than it was helpful. And I think I can see what happened. They have been pumping him -full- of them ever since the debate as they trotted him out again and again to play damage control.

With Parkinson’s if you give very high (basically OD) doses of stuff like levodopa/carbidopa you initially reduce symptoms a lot, then you end up with a week or so of blood pressure being a mess, worsened symptoms, sleep issues etc. you just cannot dose someone non functional up repeatedly without dire knock on effects, so this is what I think they’ve been doing, dosing him up to functionalish and now he’s in the ‘down’ state.

I don’t think a landslide for trump is a given. They will ‘fortify’ as needed

 

[Overly Serious]

Kamala has no personal agenda or political goals to achieve. She is 100% about power and career progression. This means if she becomes president she will 100% just be a proxy for entrenched powers as she has no desire to go against them. That means continued entanglement in Ukraine and destructive confrontation with Russia, it means non-existent borders, it means continued Federal Reserve fuckery.

Just as I told a pro-Dem colleague that there would be war in the Ukraine around a year after a Dem win prior to 2020, I'm saying that if Kamala becomes president the realistic chance of WWIII jumps higher. And you'll plausibly see a draft as well.

Some will disagree but some of those same people are those who kept telling me that Biden wouldn't drop out. Right now, I think it's pretty plausible that Biden is trying to leave some room in Delaware and being physically prevented; and his wife is being downright threatened into not making any public statements. We're witnessing an actual coup right now.

 

[Sweeter and Savoury]

The Trump assassination will be back in the news once the hearings start. They will just be too juicy for the MSM to pass up covering with all the conspiracy claims and incompetent DIE hires.

No way they will sweep that under the rug. prime time only baby

I think she'll perform more or less the same as Biden. What scares me is the potential to astroturf and retroactively rewrite everything that lead up to this and reframe the numbers.

For example, Trump's got a 1.7% lead over Kamala. He's not polling bad at all. And these are just outdated figures. The fear I have though is that this is the perfect excuse to astroturf Kamala in the polls. Sure, Trump's beating her by 1.7% but that's within the margin of error and is better than Trump's 3% lead over Biden! All the Democrats need to do in November is create enough suspension of disbelief to cheat again and make it look legitimate.

Hahah, he can't stop himself.

Was Woods thing, got ninja'd but oh well, that's almost worth posting twice. Old man can shitpost better and faster than me for sure.
