I’ve gotta stop falling for bait. That post is from a Trump supporter btw.

God damn, look at that floppy son of a bitch.

There's toothpaste with this stuff now but I have difficulty imagining it is that effective.

Since the way to make it work is to clean and then dry your teeth, then spread the liquid on your teeth and wait 2 minutes? Yeah it's probably not the same stuff.

They’d probably be in the same party in a European political system.

European politics are fucked though, so that’s really not a good argument. Imagine appealing to a system where the fucking greens have a real chance at power.

Also, they’d almost certainly not be in the same party. Maybe the same coalition, but the right wing populists are not exactly friends with neo-cons and neo-libs in most European countries afaik.

Is he Catholic? I thought only Catholics prayed to saints.

Iirc some of the more catholic adjacent prots still have saints. I want to say he’s part of the conservative communion of the episcopal church.

Also orthodox pray to saints too.

To be fair, finding corruption in Louisiana is like finding hay in a haystack, as they are cartoonishly open about it, and it's been that way since Huey Long.

It's no more corrupt than anywhere else.

Didn't seem like it drew that many people, but it was also pretty tame given I've heard/seen nothing about it. Looks like the 'the left left me we the real right-wing now' retards like Weinstein might have gotten an uncomfortable reality check on their actual popularity the same way Carl Benjamin did back in the day.

You forgot the "of Applebee's" part of his title. Please give the man his respect.

Is he Catholic? I thought only Catholics prayed to saints.

Unrelated to the specific question, but I did see something resembling a white pill this morning:

When my family and I went to church, I saw more than a handful of cars with Trump stickers on them. And during the Priest's homily, he openly and specifically called out abortion and spoke out against the grooming of children. The former Priest who used to be at my local church was so low energy and always talked about "diversity" and "acceptance" I am so glad that he left!

There's still so many fellow Catholics who are awful and completely contradictory to their own professed faith, but it looks like that Trump is going to do a lot better with Catholics this year. Democrats are bleeding a lot of Catholic support right now because they won't shut up about abortion, and I think a lot of Catholics have hit their breaking points over it.

Will it make a huge difference in the federal election, at the end of the day? Probably not ... But I am seeing some victories within my own church right now, and it feels great.

Melania is Catholic and he is generally sympathetic

The fact is one is pretty lightweight left being touted as another Stalin the other is pretty lightweight right touted as another Hitler. But at least Stalin 2.0 isn’t hocking meme stock, NFTs, and fake watches at me while totally claiming to be for the little guy. They’d probably be in the same party in a European political system.

If you dislike Trump, fine. You're just arguing in bad faith, low effort fallacies that aren't helping your case or aligned in current reality.

I don’t think I’m arguing much at all considering how useless that would be in current day reality. I am simply spouting my often retarded takes which is all anyone does these days. If I turn out to be totally wrong and find out the billionaire selling his $100k tourbillion watches and meme stock is really the second coming well it will be quite the funny own on me won’t it? At least we can look back at my dumb ass and laugh about it.

 

[X Prime]

I don't think anyone needs to "look back" to laugh.

Anyone here see Megapolis? i'll discuss it in another thread, but it really is a pitch perfect example of that whole "they only hate trump because he as an R next to his name" theory. Adam Driver' the protagonist, is a new york city building mogel who is anti-immigrant and gets harassed by the courts who accuse him of shit he didn't do. His enemies are pro-immigrant rebel rousers who support riots in the city and control the courts, media, and politicians. Also Adam driver's character is the victim of a failed assassination. Despite all this the director/writer says its supposed to be a pro-lefty film. Which should really tell you how much the overton window has changed.

I saw it. My comments in in the thread, I created btw. Its a mess and he basically took clippings of every boomer political cartoon he saw in the last 50-70 years and mashed them all together into a mess. It was a subtle as getting hit in the face by a brick. For two and a half hours. Idk what Coppola was trying to get across.

hanford again one those day lot place geting hit all at ones whuonder how thay try down play it again/

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

When Trump wins, Obama should quit trying to install his puppets and keep to making shitty Netflix movies and banging his tranny wife.

Obama didn't even want Biden in 2020; he was 100% checked out. The debacle in Charlottesville caused Biden to go directly to Obama in private and accuse him of having fat cunt blood on his hands and how Obama could have prevented it had he told Hillary to eat shit, reneged on his deal with Hillary and moved heaven and earth to make sure Biden not Hillary ran against Trump in 2016 instead. Which worked to effectively make Obama killed Hillary's plan to run again and the fix going on to secure Biden the Presidency through any means necessary.

Sorry been busy with life and the thread moves very fast but what a week. The news has definitely changed in the last week or so with Kumonher losing a lot of her presence. It seems like the news is resigned on her already even CNN are calling her out. Politico have been losing their shit though but it is impossible for her to win, she needs the entire rustbelt, Arizona and Georgia.

Also in Arizona, Reuben Gallago is running away from Kari Lake and their first debate. Somehow I think she's a lot closer than the polls say, and it will only get more in her favor. Even all those McCain faggots can't pretend Gallego is actually good:

I’m inclined to agree, but then I remember that Hobbs used the same tactic, and she still won. And it’s not like AZ has made any meaningful effort to de-fortify…

There's something to be said for living up to your name. What a flake.

Christ, I remember how infuriated I was at that pussy ass bitch during that Kavanaugh/elevator debacle. Then, this picture worthy of a thousand words came out.


I always thought it deserved a treatment by a talented artist. Painted like a Rockwell, even, and titled The Man Without A Spine.

I think the storms may have played a big part. Kamala's strategy is to pretend she hasn't been in power for the last 4 years. But with wide spread destruction and lackluster response by the Biden Admin people are suddenly reminded "Oh yeah, Kamala is supposed to help fix this... Where is she?"

This is an interesting “man behind the curtain” moment. Biden’s brain is swiss cheese. All that remains is the prompt>response that he has practiced for decades. This is how politicians react to stimulus, with practiced answers that would offend none of the fattest wallets paying for their services. If he had been at 100% cognitive ability, he would have replied with a more polished and relevant statement and it would have been equally insincere.

It seems SNL is willing to mock Harris now.

If you could call that a mockery, my door hinges do a better impression!
