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

 

[The Nothingness]

In an update to the Mark Robinson situation, North Carolina senator Thom Tillis made this statement over Twitter.

Tillis is an establishment Republican who suddenly becomes conservative when he is up for reelection. I am curious what tweets he had when the Stormy Daniels and E.G. Carroll stories on Trump were initially reported.

I was told doing my own research was dangerous.

You may do research as long as you end up agreeing with our conclusions, and our conclusions only. Otherwise any independent thought you have must be discarded.

If Pennsylvania Senate is a tie, it's a blowout for Trump. Holy shit. View attachment 6437854

Signal to Dems in PA to get moving and grooving.

Guys, I need your help. Ever since the results of the 2022 midterms there has been a segment of my mind of blackpill depression cynicism going on in the back of my mind. I want to be fully optimistic like I was in 2016 but I just can't. I need your help convincing me we got this and they will not take away our hope unlike what has happen in the last three times.

Should I turn this into a deep thoughts topic?

@Larry David's Opera Cape beat me to it, but have you tried Jesus? Seriously--the biggest black pill is putting your faith and expectations in government, just like they have gaslit and some cases brainwashed and ball and chained the populace to do. Biden literally said to do that in his first official speech as President. No, your faith needs to be in something real, something that fills your soul, not in people that continually and gleefully hollow you out.

The suggestion to get a cat is an excellent one. You could even get a girlfriend/boyfriend, get married and have kids. Plug into your community (I recommend church) and if you need to feel like you have some control, consider getting involved in your local party or local politics. Live your life well. That's the antidote to this three ring circus they want to suck us into.

"President Trump easily won Lancaster County in 2016 and 2020, and the high turnout by GOP voters in the most recent election was driven, at least in part, by precincts in Amish communities."

The Amish are very concerned about government. They are the epitome of just wanting to farm, garden, and grill. They're also businesspeople, entrepreneurs, and very pro-life because their social strata encourages large families. Dem interfere and oppress all of that.

Presidential list stuff

My yardstick for those lists is where they put LBJ, and they almost always put him in the top 10 or 20. If he's not in the bottom five I can't take it seriously. That man wrecked this country all because of power and stature. He had zero care for the American people.

Before I got red pilled I used to watch American Experience, and I still go back and rewatch the presidential profiles because I can now pick out the rewriting of history in them. There's one on LBJ, and the mental gymnastics some of the people who were in his inner circle and served in his administration have to do to make him palatable is impressive. Even then there are a few who say some not so flattering, but true things.

Biden has surpassed Buchanan in the race to the bottom.

 

[HodgePodgeRogerDodger]

This talk about ranking US Presidents reminds me of how hilariously biased the Historical Ranking of Presidents of the United States lists are.

Corrupt, Unpopular Democrats get re-evaluated into being "secretly amazing" (Truman), whilst Popular Republicans get re-evaluated into being "secretly terrible" (Harding). The only time they afforded that luxury for Republicans was with Grant, and the argument is basically "Yeah his Presidency kinda sucked ass and was corrupt, but he was a great guy and was an epic anti-racist!" (Not saying Grant wasn't a cool guy, but his Presidency was bad.)

Also, these lists have Biden above Polk which is ridiculous, Polk is at minimum a Top 10 President, he's in my personal Top 5. Meanwhile, where's Trump? Down at the bottom, two lists even have him at the actual very bottom, below goddamn Buchanan.

The actual worst sin of these lists, however, is their near universal praise of Wilson. Wilson was a fucking faggot, and the only reason they act like he wasn't is because he has a D next to his name. They'd start caring a lot more about how he was a racist dickhead who popularized the Lost Cause myth if he was Republican.

Grant is mostly because a lot of the corruption once you dig in wasn’t all his appointees. It basically was people installed by Lincoln who were skimming off the top and only got caught after the war was over.
He also had the single most hostile press of any President before Trump. A lot of his scandals was Puck or other Newspapers making shit up from “Sources familiar with his thinking”.

Grant was not a good President, but I wouldn’t call him bad due to incompetence or malice. Guy was a military genius, but did not know politics. He walked into a house on fire and tried to right it. His World Tour does deserve some accolades though. Did a lot to raise the opinion of the US.

Exactly. Thom Tillis and Lindsey Graham need to go. The only ‘values’ they have are those which benefits themselves. Lindsey Graham was super anti-Trump in 2016, but suddenly, he was all for Trump when he won. As is the case with hundreds of other Republicans.

You have to remember that Reid Hoffman and Hansjorg Wyss (among other DNC donors) spend millions of dollars just to turn the outcomes of elections. FTX was also a big funder of this and they of course got taken down. They only rely on spending as much money as possible in order to turn the outcomes of elections and this is a strategy that is high risk because if it fails they end up with a big hole in their wealth.

Based Vivek.

I think I'd like a Vance/Vivek ticket more than a Vance/DeSantis one.

Honestly the more I think about it, a Vance/Vivek ticket would be fucking unbeatable.

A pajeet will never be within a stones throw of the presidency.

Funny how Tillis seems to speak for the party when the NCGOP put out this statement:

 

[CharlesBarkley]

The populist surge within the Republican Party has made corporate less willing to back Republicans, because the immigration stances don’t benefit corporate (especially if H1B gets slashed)

Slavery is bad and those kids who vote democrat should know that.

But Trump said mean tweets, I guess.

For months, I’ve had a gut feeling that the Republicans are rooting for Harris to win so they can get rid of Trump. I meant to say it a while ago, but I thought it would sound autistic. Now with Cheney and other pre-Trump Republicans coming out of the woodworks to support Harris and especially after this Mark Robinson shit, it seems more likely than ever rather than deranged. If Trump loses, he and MAGA will be history, and that would be favorable to the Neocon Old Guard. I simply can’t see it any other way after this, the NCGOP is trying to help Harris win the state…

Take a deep breath. If these people were half as competent as we treat them, they wouldn't be human beings. They are, and not particularly brilliant ones either.

The sheer fact that people are speaking openly about Dem chicanery on Facebook and X is a huge white pill. This time 4 years ago everything was completely verbotten because the establishment utilized COVID to shut down the planet. They have screamed and howled as we spent 4 years wrestling those freedoms back.

We're at a turning point. They can continue to fuck up this country if they win, but they can't fuck you up. You are the most in-charge person of your own destiny.

Dude just take it easy. Laugh at the clown show that is America and worry about yourself and your family. Go volunteer for your local hospital or animal shelter and try to do good out in this fucked up world.

I mean, she is doing what she needs to do but I can't fathom how is this not frustrating for her supporters, if there really are any and are not just TDS people. Even the dumbest people will notice when you don't answer a really simple question.

It's shocking to me how unrelatable she is, at any level possible. Who can relate to Kamala? Rich people can't, poor people can't and middle class people definetly can't. It's honestly intriguing to see the system spend absurd amounts of money to prop up a piece of cardboard.

Kamala spends more time talking about her past, which incidentally some of it has been proven to be false, more than she does about any policy she has planned for her time in office.

In a way, that pretty much describes her entire campaign to a "T". You're not voting for what she has to offer, you're voting for the person (at least the one she likes to build herself up as) because she ticks off all the right checkboxes on the progressive and oppressed checklist.

This is essentially the "feels over reals" meme taken to it's literal interpretation, and in fact is pretty much the theme for this entire political atmosphere, with Trump being "reals" and Kamala being "feels", and considering who the majority demographic is that are baking up Kamala, it makes more sense.

Will it work? I don't think so. This isn't like the internet where they just steamrolled everyone and everything to where we now have a sanitized corporate-friendly hellhole. This is IRL, and people are genuinely sick and tired of this to where they are pushing back. The other problem is that the "feels" side is genuinely retarded, hence why their optics are incredibly bad. The one thing the "feels" side lacks is logic and reasoning, and anyone knows that when you go with your emotional insticts first, you make irrational and impulsive decisions that bite you in the ass later down the road.

 

[Rick's Beef Wellington]

Today I learned that Kamala graduated from the same High School as noted all-American icon Leonard Cohen.

 

[FieldPiece]

You’re wrong here, it’s those that have always loved and wanted war. Take a look at twitter and how it’s that demographic hawking for us to go to open all out war against Russia. Or look up the white feather brigade.

Yep, women love war, at least as long as it's not happening where they live. Just look at all the bitches in Russia going RAH RAH about the war in Ukraine then when Kursk started getting invaded you see these same women with flags all over the place crying about how it's barbaric or some shit. There's a reason Orwell called women dumb propaganda swallowers.

It seems to me that the NCGOP is standing by Mark Robinson based on that statement, but I could be reading it wrong and they may stab him, and Trump, in the back later on.

MAGA isn't going anywhere, even if Trump loses. The next guys up in the bullpen are DeSantis, Vance, and Vivek who are all MAGA, just wrapped up in a less bombastic package. The core values are mostly the same. The old GOP is dead and it's never coming back.
