Minor thing, but I think this is the first time Google has chosen flattering pics of Trump in a long time.

Because if Trump wins, he'll LITERALLY throw all the minorities into wood chippers. Just ignore the fact he never tried any fascist stuff the first time around.

I don't have a horse in this race. In fact, I've been barely paying attention to this election so far, but I do know that no matter who wins tomorrow, the salt from the other half will be legendary.
That said, if I have to pick a side at gunpoint, I would want Trump to win just to see the absolute seethe that is going to cause, just from some of the people on this site alone let alone other parts of the internet. Hell, last post in the Trump thread as of writing this is just some guy fuming at the posts made in *this* thread instead of sticking to their supposed topic.
Gathering salt will be fun tomorrow.

Imagine if Google, the same company that publicly said that they need to do everything to "stop 2016 from happening ever again", which directly lead to acceleration of censorship all over the internet and social media, decided to back Trump solely because they have no way of spinning a Kamala victory. Giving me some serious late 2016 vibes. Remember when there was this rumor that a Disneyland attraction bought a Hillary automatronic since they they were so confident she would win, only to quickly(and poorly) dye it's hair to make it look like Trump when he won?

Ah but don't you see. The reason he didn't do that is because the left "resisted" him so hard that he didn't dare to try. Just like how Putin hacked the 2016 election, but failed to in 2020 because they resisted hard, and if Trump wins this time he someone hacked this election. Which would be funny to see the left claiming that.

I remember them blaming White women for breaking solidarity in 2016. The reality is that the Dems really only have an edge with unmarried White women. Married White women tend to have similar political affiliations as Married White men and are even more Conservative than single White men (though Single White men are not far off from Married couples in affiliation).
State-Mandated Husbands would ensure conservative dominance of America. Femcels rise up.

Harris botched interview with Muslim influencer by celebrating ‘bacon’ as ‘a spice’

She may not be bringing home the “bacon” this election.
Vice President Kamala Harris is under fire over her decision to celebrate the use of bacon as “a spice” while being interviewed by a Muslim influencer.
Harris, 60, chewed the fat last summer with Kareem Rahma, host of the popular TikTok and Instagram show “Subway Takes,” but the interview never aired, the New York Times reported Monday.
The show routinely features guests, some of whom are celebrities, defending an uncommon viewpoint.
Though he was initially told the vice president was going to argue against taking off shoes on airplanes, Rahma, who is Muslim and doesn’t eat pork as part of his faith observance, learned when the two sat down that Harris was instead going to deliver the take that “bacon is a spice.”
“I don’t know,” Rahma reportedly responds in the video interview, according to the Times, to which Harris replies that bacon can be used to enhance bland dishes.
“Think about it, it’s pure flavor,” she apparently said.
The disagreement led to Rahma pausing the interview and asking for Harris to return to the topic of shoeless passengers on planes, prompting the veep to instead talk about how she like anchovies on pizza.
“Well,” Rahma reportedly says in the unpublished video just before it concludes. “I’m 100 percent unsure on both of those.”
A firm opponent of the Harris-Biden administration’s support for Israel amid its ongoing war in Gaza, Rahma was already apprehensive about conducting the interview.
“It was so complicated because I’m Muslim and there’s something going on in the world that 100 percent of Muslims care about,” he told the New York Times. “And then they made it worse by talking about anchovies. Boring!”
“I never wanted to be a politics person,” Rahma added. “The more I think about it, the more I feel like I got lucky.”
The “Subway Takes” host has more than 928,000 followers combined on TikTok and Instagram and did release a separate interview with Harris’ running-mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who discussed how Americans are failing to maintain their homes’ gutters.
Two senior Harris campaign officials told the Times that Rahma had been forewarned that the discussion would touch on pork instead of politics.
The influencer and his manager told the outlet they received no such warning.
Reps for the Harris campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Two-and-a-half weeks after our initial meeting, I visited Rahma again. He seemed harried and wore a faded T-shirt and relaxed-fit jeans. The interview with Harris hadn’t gone as planned.
What happened was a dispute over Harris’s take. Rahma said he had been told that the vice president would be taking a stand against removing one’s shoes on airplanes. When they sat down, however, Harris had surprised him with a different take: “Bacon is a spice.” (Two senior campaign officials said this topic had been raised in advance. Rahma and his manager dispute this.)
Rahma, who doesn’t eat pork for religious reasons, was taken aback. “I don’t know,” he says, in an unpublished video recording of the interview, his voice rising to an unusually high pitch. Harris elaborates that bits of cooked bacon can be used to enhance a meal like any other seasoning. “Think about it, it’s pure flavor,” she says.
Rahma asks Harris if he can use beef or turkey and what kinds of dishes would benefit from bacon. He then pauses the interview and tells her that he doesn’t eat it. He asks if they can do the airplanes take instead. But, on the advice of a staffer, Harris decides to declare her love of anchovies on pizza — an alternative the campaign had floated earlier in an email. Rahma wraps the discussion one minute later.
“Well,” he says, with an awkward laugh. “I’m 100 percent unsure on both of those.”
The Walz interview, in which the governor deplored the national decline of home gutter maintenance, went more smoothly. Afterward, Rahma said, he felt unsure of what to make of the sit-down with Harris. He had been apprehensive about potential criticism from other Muslims, and the bacon talk had thrown him off.
“It was so complicated because I’m Muslim and there’s something going on in the world that 100 percent of Muslims care about,” he said. “And then they made it worse by talking about anchovies. Boring!”
The campaign apologized for the bacon take and proposed a reshoot. But, after publishing the Walz interview, Rahma ultimately decided not to move forward with it.

Harris wanting to talk bacon with a Muslim influencer is one of the funniest things I have seen in a good while. NYT has been shanking Kamala the last few days.

Except for the women who support Trump, the women who weren't comfortable taking an experimental "vaccine," or the women who are concerned about the skyrocketing violent crime rate being perpetrated against them by illegal immigrants.
But trust the ones who want to kill their babies and who religiously listen to nothing but Taylor Swift tho.
