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

 

[The Nothingness]

If Trump gets his second term, what do you think would be his best course of action to alleviate the debt without raising taxes? Trying to reduce spending will be difficult since the uniparty will not want that.

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Make election denying great again! (I don't actually think Maduro won of course, just taking the piss.) You should see Kamala's tweets. In the first tweet she implied Maduro won even though she doesn't mention any names, then in the second tweet, after the US government questioned the results, she doesn't actually say who she thinks won.

The funniest thing about Maduro is that he's using all the same excuses the Dems did in 2020 so the US is really struggling to get into specifics of how Maduro rigged it. Broken pipe delayed results, ballot harvesting, etc.

I guess Kyle Rittenhouse is writing in Ron Paul instead of voting for Trump.

Spoiler: It's a cellphone camera video and takes up a ton of space

Ron Paul is pretty cool so it's tempting to throw my worthless blue state vote away on him but my spite is too strong.

Edit: I guess it doesn't take up that space, it just looks like it before you post. Leave me alone.

Sucks Ron Paul is our only option and the man is almost in his 90s now.
That's how bad it is. His son pales in comparison.
But at this point we need to get the left out of power unless we're going full on accelerationism.

Cool, but the people doing this are in power and will never face accountability sadly.

Remove income tax.
Imagine getting 40% more money every paycheck.

Exactly. Trump just has to keep talking about her race and it's game over. I know some faggots might find this disgusting and stooping to democrat level. It is however their Achilles hills. Cognitive dissonance that exists within democrat party.

When exactly has "Dems are the real racists " ever worked?

The economy is shit, no one has a solution, our foreign policy is suicidal, everyone is just pretending our debt does not matter, my prediction is this election is going to have more depressed turnout than 2020 and therefor Harris wins by default due to controlling the electronic voting booths.

I'm the real racist, don't worry about it

All those issues are the reason why Trump voters will show up in bigger numbers than 2020. 2020 was only lost due to fuckery around the voting booth. All the eyes are on the voting booth now. If they cheat again, shit will be look at like a hawk and more republicans will agree that cheating did occur in 2020 and election is a fraud.

Powers that be can't have that happening. They will "lose" gracefully and attempt to destroy Trump once he gets in the office.

But since Trump can't run again, he might engage in scorch earth tactics which will be glorious.

Also, the market is tanking

Great news for Trump.

People on social media are mad. How quickly do they forget he took out the trash in Kenosha.

He was in the right place at the right time to defend himself with a gun against some objectively bad dudes (whose history he knew nothing of). That's great, doesn't make him a total expert on 2A or politics in general anymore than David Hogg, who hid under a desk during a shooting and now won't shut up.

Being a 22 year old fresh college grad from UCLA in 1969, living in Southern California would have been absolutely dope. Literal envy of the world.

Except the part where your deferment is up...

Good on him. You should vote for who you want in office, not vote for someone you don't just to avoid 'wasting your vote'/

What OTA software update will everyone receive within the next 24-48 hours to delete any record of this out of existence?

Apparently they're going with the old playbook of "you're a nazi"

There's also this one that just came it. One of the lines in the article is basically the doctors saying "well people experience harm in sports all the time so it's normal regardless of gender"

David Hogg, who hid under a desk during a shooting

Wasn't it discovered he wasn't even in the school at the time? I thought I remembered reading that. Like he was riding his bike or something.

Well then, you just do what Bill Clinton did and go and be an Oxford Rhodes Scholar for a year. Or else, also do what Bill Clinton did, make moves that suggest you're going to join the Navy Reserves, then pull your application just to get a higher draft number

Rittenhouse is being gay, Trump went to the mat for him when it wasn’t “good optics” and this should be a minimum of respect.

I imagine the right-wing griftosphere like Barnes and Rekeita who would've been perfectly happy for him to go to prison forever if it meant they had another arrow to Pwn the Libs with probably turned him off a bit. I can't say I blame him. I think he's even been alienated from his own immediate family over them wanting a cut of whatever money he'll get trying to put his life back together.

 

[Irene and 22 others]

Break them with a single question: "And then what?" Cause it's a question they never ask themselves.

The problem with this is that it requires someone who's capable of reason and critical thinking, of which many leftists are incapable.

If you were to actually try this, the likely response would be akin to "And then everything will be perfect in our utopia." It's not that they didn't ask themselves this question, it's that they aren't capable of answering it even if they had asked it.

 

[Jade Philosophies]

Good on him. You should vote for who you want in office, not vote for someone you don't just to avoid 'wasting your vote'/

But he knows there's literally no way Ron Paul would ever win and if Kamala wins she's going to try to make as many anti-2nd Amendment laws as possible, if not get the whole 2nd Amendment removed and ban guns completely. So why not vote for Trump to stop Kamala, despite whatever anti-2A thing he's supposed to have said or done? Then again he lives in Texas so his vote shouldn't affect Trump's chances of winning there.

It was rigged, but Trump did have depressed turnout among the voters in the critical swing states which made it much easier and in a legitimate election would have been too close. He got a noticeable amount of White Midwest Obama voters in 2016 by talking about NAFTA and echoing Ross Perot, then they did not vote again for him in 2020 because they felt he failed and he ignored them for typical GOP tax cuts.

Add to that the Young, even GOP, are increasingly Anti-Israel, and all this talk about fighting Iran is further causing people to check out mentally. The demographic numbers are just not adding up for a Trump victory right now.

How would Kyle going to prison "pwn the libs"? They'd be celebrating and using the conviction to "pwn the cons".

 

[AnitaSarsleezian]

Boomers are the first generation that had such a good childhood that they resented growing up, and part of growing up is thinking about the future, your kids, and your grandkids. Boomers the first generation to have such a thing as "youth culture." Every generation after the Boomers has resented growing up even more, and pushed back the age when they will finally start "adulting."

Boomers wanted to be young adults forever.
Gen X wanted to be college students forever.
Millennials want to be teenagers forever.
Gen Z wants to be middle schoolers forever.

Etc. Eventually, we will have a generation of Americans that resents having to leave the womb.

I think you're really overestimating the extent to which most normal people give a shit about Israel one way or the other.

Besides, Trump started no new wars. Even when he blew up Soleimani and the media were fearmongering about war with Iran, nothing happened. Trump is just doing what Trump does: talking shit. That's how he negotiates. He talked mad shit about Kim Jong-Un and North Korea and look what happened: Donald Trump is the only person Kim Jong-Un will even talk to, he won't return Biden's phone calls.

This is simply not true.

2020 Compared to 2016 election, Trump received 200k more votes in Wisconsin, 600k more votes in Michigan, 400k more in Pennsylvania, 400k more in Arizona and 400k more in Georgia.

Democrats simply had more fake voting booth brrrr than Trump.
