I wonder why Brazilian media is so enamorated with Kamala. Here, local news is gushing about how she is this defender of democracy that will defeat evil Trump and his agenda, and it makes me sick to be honest.

Elon musk has been at war with the chief justice on their supreme court, and lulu is a bit of a commie faggot. I think that's a great deal of why they are supporting kamella and not trump.
Bolso is a huge trump ally, that doesn't help either.

The Kennedy endorsement has created a whole new level of salt mining tonight. It's hilarious, and I'm here for it.

Part of me thinks that the Harris Campaign offered RFK Jr. a cabinet position first (based on the "reports" we saw floating around last week), and RFK Jr. turned them down flat. That would totally explain the catty comments made publicly by a Harris Campaign spokesperson earlier this week too.

What will all the lefty Swifties do now that their favorite team's star quarterback is confirmed to be a Trump supporter (there's a 0% chance he votes differently than her)?

My only criticism is that there is no beautiful women for the cameras, this time.
Come on, Trump, you know how to make the ratings go up. You've been on TV long enough.

I've been asking the same question since 2018. I think for me it's either his contempt for the mainstream media or the montage videos his campaign spawned of SJWs crying.

There's a lot to unpack in this post.
  1. Can you please post some of the RFK salt?
  2. According to RFK's people, Harris didn't even speak with his campaign. I suspect that's why he's removing himself from states where it might hurt Trump but not from states where it might hurt Harris: it's a "fuck you" to her and the DNC.
  3. 7 rings, baby

Also what data shows that Rfk dropping out helps Trump? Pretty sure the end result is those people just not voting at all.

Baris has said, for like a year now, that without RFK in the race, Trump wins in a landslide. With RFK in the race, Trump could still win but it would be a squeaker.

It's all to do with the true independents. Guys like Joe Rogan or Aaron Rodgers. If RFK runs, they'll vote for RFK. If RFK drops out, they'll vote for Trump. Now with RFK potentially being involved in the next Trump administration, those guys have added incentive to vote for Trump

Here is an article on some sort of Democrat memo about RFK Jr.

Democratic memo argues Trump embrace of RFK Jr. is a sign of weakness​

The Democratic National Committee in a new memo dismissed the potential impact Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s exit from the presidential race might have and signaled it would continue to try to define other potential spoilers moving forward.

The DNC on Friday argued Kennedy’s sole role in the race was to be a spoiler candidate to boost former President Trump’s chances of victory.

Kennedy is set to make an announcement about his campaign Friday afternoon, with speculation swirling he may drop out and endorse Trump. The former president has said he would be “honored” to have Kennedy’s endorsement.

“Like RFK Jr., Donald Trump is at a low point and acting out of desperation,” the memo stated. “Embracing RFK Jr. now – when he has nothing to offer but months of disqualifying revelations – is not a decision a campaign makes when they’re acting from a position of strength.”

The memo pointed to concerted efforts from Democrats and their allies to try to define Kennedy, a shift from the 2016 race when third-party candidates like Jill Stein were largely ignored.

“As voters have learned about RFK Jr.’s unsavory and reckless past, ties to MAGA donors, and MAGA-lite positions on abortion bans and January 6th pardons, his support has dwindled to make him a near-negligible factor,” the memo states.

“The little support that remains is soft, split across ideologies, and disproportionately among lower propensity voters. With no meaningful base of support and sky-high negatives among Democrats, RFK Jr.’s threat to VP Harris was neutralized,” the DNC memo continued.

The DNC memo predicted Kennedy likely would continue to attack Harris even after he drops out of the race. But the party argued Kennedy could hurt Trump by association, citing the independent candidate’s controversial comments about the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, the Sept. 11 attacks and vaccines.

“With RFK Jr.’s departure, we will continue to hold other third party candidates accountable and educate voters about the clear choice between VP Harris and Donald Trump,” the memo stated.

Multiple sources close to both the Kennedy and Trump campaigns have said signals are pointing toward the independent candidate announcing he is ending his candidacy and endorsing Trump, but they cautioned that nothing is finalized.

Trump earlier this week said he would be open to giving Kennedy a role in a future administration. The two spoke on the phone during the Republican National Convention, where a possible endorsement reportedly came up.

Kennedy, 70, has struggled to maintain traction in the race. Although his polling has peaked in the double digits, he has dropped to the low single digits in the race that is now between Trump and Vice President Harris, the Democratic nominee.

Trump is a stand-up comedian. That's why people like him: he knows how to work a room and he's funny. More importantly, he is not a safe comedian who does the little dance that the power elites want him to do - like a Hannah Gadsby type. Like any stand-up worth his or her salt, he is willing to slay the sacrificial cows and take risks. People forget a YUUUUGE reason why Trump was popular in 2016 was because he railed against political correctness. People are sick of this shit and, ultimately, it's what brings every one of us to this website.

It's not even that. Independent of the fact that he makes the people I detest lose their minds, something about him is just so interesting to listen to. His mannerisms, cadence, etc. Hell, he's orange and has a funny sounding voice. All those things just kind of mix together and make him amusing to listen to.
