This alone should get someone elected no contest. For once in my life I want to know the feeling of taking home the whole check. Think it happened once during Covid, really should've been a huge wake up call to everyone about how much we're getting robbed every paycheck.

You know, the income tax was originally a temporary measure introduced by the government to pay for the damages caused by the civil war. It'd be a huge stretch but I'm gonna tell young people when I'm old that by ending the income tax Trump officially ended the civil war.

I mean, the democrats are gonna fib about him for decades to come. What's the harm in adding in a few tall tales of my own?

You're a bit late. There might be one more print next week but the polling is basically over with now.

NYT/Sierra printed a tie yesterday. That's a high quality poll and they don't do loaded questions usually in that poll.

Grog sat down with that annoying NYT podcast host who Vance fucked up, and points out the obvious that PA is Trumpland, and you're being stupid to ignore it:

Does anyone know what the fuck is going on with this early vote narrative. I’ve heard 20 different takes on it. Latest is that republicans are cannibalizing their Election Day voters and democrats have an edge with woman and low propensity votes. What the fuck does all this bullshit mean? Each side is acting this will result in a landslide for their preferred candidate.

Half of Republicans plan to vote on election day, only a quarter of democrats do.

With the democrats getting their shit pushed in on the early/mail voting numbers any suggestion of making it up on election day for them is pure cope.

Isn't Mt Rushmore not even finished and some native tribe kicks up a fuss every few years about wanting to destroy what's been carved there already?

That's correct. Mt Rushmore wasn't supposed to be faces, it's supposed to be whole bodies, but the mountain is actually not great for carving, and our statue carving techniques aren't good for mountains. The weirdo that made it spent basically his whole life and fortune on that and has already moved on to blowing up another mountain to pander to a tribe he's actually infuriating (because he keeps exploding their holy land). It's improbable any more faces will ever be added.

I’d argue that he very much realizes how to avoid making himself look like a stuck up cunt. He does love Opera and other shit supposedly, but his father tore him a new one when he was younger and made sure he knew his shit. The king shit (unironically Fred told him he was a king) was viewing himself as someone who has responsibilities to the people under him and that’s why his station is so great.

He’s not dumb.

This is why the McDonald's "stunt" was received so well. And the ones who haven't taken it well are just butthurt over how brilliant of a move it was.

The man genuinely acted like he enjoyed what he did at McDonald's ... It was actually endearing when he showed complete wonder over the fry scoop ("these are never touched by the human hand! Wow!"). And it's not the first time he's done something like this either. For starters, lot of people who have worked for him at the hotels have said how he would always talk to the staff personally and show interest in their personal lives. Secondly, before he even went into politics, he was filmed doing jobs at the Trump hotels doing stuff like taking people's bags, cleaning bathrooms, etc.

Does all of this help build up his image? Of course; it definitely benefits him. But he does it well because it shows that he doesn't view himself as "above" doing working class jobs.

Imagine if someone like Kamala did the McDonald's stunt. First off, no way would she have put on an apron and done actual work. Secondly, she would have talked to the McDonald's employees like they were abused animals or something. "Oh, poor you! Working at a place LIKE THIS without a $20 minimum wage. This is an awful job. Vote for me, and I'll give you free crap, you poor little things."

And then we have an actual incident/example like the one with Tim Walz and his daughter at a coffee shop. Walz barely interacts with the baristas while Walz's daughter tells them "somebody else will come up to pay for these."

Gee, I wonder why Trump has so many supporters right now ...

Every election cycle, Epic Rap Battles of History create a rap for it, and they've finally put out this cycle's 30 minutes ago.

For reference, these are always some of their most popular videos and probably unironically how millions of normies consume election material.

Safety Tip: Do not sing along to Epic Rap Battles while riding public transport. You will get stabbed and I will laugh at your expense.

Part of this is also just the fact that Trump was given a personalized education that included drilling into him how to communicate and naturally befriend people. It's not magic by any means, although it does take social awareness and a certain "je ne sais quoi." But Trump can just charm people. If you want an example of this beyond Trump look at this random interaction Tucker Carlson (who like Trump is a privileged American) had years back with a deceased Howard Stern lolcow "Joey Boots." And Tucker just naturally befriends this goofball who was only filming because his whole act was being an obnoxious New Yorker. While watching this ask yourself, "Would you be friendly to a stranger who is filming you?" I wouldn't. But Tucker is friendly, Trump would definitely be friendly.
You can learn this stuff on your own (see Dale Carnegie) but to really get it and naturally have it in your repertoire takes time and effort. When Trump talked to that Fry Cook he really came off as excited and interested in knowing how to make Mickey Ds French Fries. I feel this quality was standard with all politicians in the past and it's something Kamala Harris never bothered to develop.

Kamala is a Karen in every way, it's why people don't like her.

Trump is a cool bro, it's why people love him.

You can't deny these realities. It's why Trump will win.

So another DEI nepo hire.
At least for once unlike boeing or united airlines this won't kill people and end up helping people.

And it drives leftists insane that his supporters find it endearing and relatable. Their messaging has always been "Trump is so uncouth, Trump is so gauche, Trump is so unsophisticated, Trump eats at McDonalds like a peasant" because that's the kind of thing their faggy coastal elite social circles care about.

They've been trying to make a competing monument to Crazy Horse nearby since 1948 and all they have finished is the head.
