Poor Nick Bosa, the usual suspects are already calling for him to be fined then kick off the team for daring to show that hat.

Dude you play in Commieville central and were already on their hit list for having your picture taken with Orange Hitler last year and now you photo bomb NBC? The best you can hope for is a big fine the worst is that your career is over First thing Monday morning the call will go out and the cancel attempts will begin.

This is what is wrong with America, I'm sure if he flashed a Harris cap he's be the toast of the town but since he didn't they will set out to destroy him for having the wrong opinions.
Thankfully the 49ers seem to have more fans outside of the Bay Area than in it.
 
I normally hate mash-ups, but this fucking rules. Stevie Wonder is so good.

I pose a question to US Politics General: if you were a major American politician at a huge rally, what would be your walk-on music? The only rule is it must be an American artist, which makes it hard for me because so many of my favorite artists are (Lord forgive me for uttering this word) Br*tish.

I'd probably pick "Stick To Your Guns" by The Quakes.
The most American song of all time by the most based retard to ever sing.
 
I talked to my 31 Puerto Rican friends this morning and they are telling me that they were leaning to Trump but the offensive joke was a bridge too far for them and now they are voting Harris and down ballot Democrat.

Looks like Trump stepped on a rake. I don’t think there’s a way for him to weasel out of this one.
This will be the end of Trump says increasingly nervous man for the 10000000000000 time.

The "only American artists" thing is tricky, since I feel like "Young Turks" by Rod Stewart would be a great choice.

But I have to say, it would be the song I hope JD uses as his entrance music in four years:

Copperhead Road, by Steve Earle. Which is, after all, the thinking man's Born In the USA.

I talked to my 32 black friends who were leaning to Harris but now they're voting for Trump and down ballot Republican because I won't stop bothering them about their political leanings like a complete sperg

Has anyone else gotten those texts yet that talk about how to find out if your friend voted? I just got one today and it was really weird, literally said to snoop around and see if your friends, boyfriend or hookup (wtf) voted. I just replied back asking why would I want to know if someone voted or not because honestly why does it matter? These ads rub me the wrong way and I can't explain why.
The point of this is to get the sort of guys who say "I already voted on Thursday, babe," to worry that their nagging shrew girlfriends might check up to see if they're lying.
 
This might be an unpopular opinion here but Tony Hinchcliffe's comedy set at the MSG rally was an optics nightmare and probably shouldn't have happened. It also really wasn't the place for comedy.

In the face of everything else, which is only ramping up support every hour? What a strange turn to doom pill.
 
I think what's nice about sticking a comedian willing to throw edgy jokes out at the most crucial moment in the most important political campaign is that everyone is so desensitized to the hyperbole that even if the shit was grossly offensive and which get you some blowback from a normal person no one gives a fuck anymore because everyone hates the media.

Media Matters was on that joke like white on rice and nobody gives a shit anymore. No one cares.

People who were SJWs in 2015 running around doing rape apologia for Hamas in 2024 is what put the final nail in the coffin of these people.

Nobody wants to hear their shit anymore.

It's just the latest iteration of the media pearl-clutching over someone saying what everybody knows, that 3rd-world countries with garbage-strewn streets and shanty towns are, in fact, shitholes. They're Schroedinger's shitholes - unlivable dumps when their populations want to come live here, golden paradises when anybody talks about what sort places those populations build.

Counterpoint: America's young men would like to be able to laugh at racist jokes again.

When it turns out that the Trump turnout is higher than expected, I want every pollster to realize that a man talking to a pollster on the phone will not be honest about his pick if his wife or girlfriend is listening.

I am in a solid red state and watched as a couple visited recently, where the woman was a total Harris diehard and the man in the couple said he "hadn't decided yet." I know this guy. He's 100% voting Trump. But he's decided it's not worth the fight and neither he nor his wife are going to change each other's views. But if some pollster called him up, he'd be an undecided, or a third-party vote. He's not, he just doesn't want to deal with the bullshit.

If that's what it's like for men in red states, imagine if you're in a bughive in a "purple" state. No woman feels like she has to hide her Harris vote unless she's in deep red territory that would never switch anyway. Many, many men in swing states feel like sharing their real viewpoint would start a fight that could only be a pain in the ass.
 

It's never been more Joever.

Hope Obama loves his legacy. Handing the country to Orange Mecha Hitler, getting his elderly, senile VP to have one of the most disastrous one-term presidencies in history, and then giving the reins back to Mango Mussolini because his female protege had the charisma of a cumsock. Everyone says Obama values his legacy above all else, so this is just so beautiful to me. Watching all the billionaires leave the DEI consensus that his presidency started practically brings a tear to my eye.
 
Trumps numbers on Polymarket are now about the same as they were right after his debate with Biden. Trumps peak after the debate and before he was shot was 67%, his peak after being shot was 72%.

Trumps lead in the swing states has been solid, the only one that's close is Michigan. This doesn't show North Carolina under swing states, but it's also good at 70/30 for Trump.
