what all can we list that he has done right during his presidency?

He's exposed people for the authoritarian cunts they are.

I will never understand how the Lincoln Project can be so fucking awful at making political ads. They always come off like some sort of parody.

God, that is hilarious.

One thing that really jumps out at me in this ad is that, even after eight years of Trump, this family is obviously doing well. The family depicted lives in a nice house, which is in good repair, and the boy has his own room, and enough stuff for it to be cluttered. He gets to enjoy playing sports, like a normal kid. Mom's kind of frumpy, but decently dressed and able to get her hair done. Both mother and son appear well-fed and in good health, even if Mom does suffer from TDS.

This is not a family that has suffered, or fallen into reduced circumstances under the Trump regime. Their life looks perfectly good and wholesome, and even aspirational to a lot of Americans.

SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM, HERE?!

We're supposed to believe that things are terrible under Trump. They don't look too terrible for this family. Is Dad away in a gulag, being re-educated for leftist wrongthink? Given the family's material circumstances, it doesn't seem likely. Maybe all the black people have been shipped to Africa, or all the troons rounded up and gassed? There's nothing in this ad to suggest it.

In the ad, Trump just got re-elected--elected, in a race where Mom had to stay up late until the results were tallied and the victory was called, because his victory was not a foregone conclusion. That means Trump had an opponent, who lost, because the voters wanted four more years of Trump. And that he was able to run for a third term means there was an amendment to the Constitution to allow that, which can only be done through a political process that requires cooperation and consent from members of both parties.

So this family's doing well, and so is the process of electing the President of the United States. Trump was re-elected (at the age of 78, btw) for a third term--he did not declare himself God Emperor for Life through Executive Order.

So again, what's the problem here? Is it really so simple as Orange Man Bad? The creators of this ad sure as shit haven't presented anything here to convince me otherwise.

If anything, it presents the ideal. A useless amendment was abolished, and a strong contender to Trump appeared. Given the DERTH of good candidates so bad that BIDEN is their candidate, that means the Democrats got some of their shit together.

it presents utopia as Dystopia.

Um. Isn't China actively trying to take over Africa right now?

Yep. Through Belt and Road.

Here is what quinton’s take on the election

I will never understand how the Lincoln Project can be so fucking awful at making political ads. They always come off like some sort of parody.

Remember, the Lincoln Project's ads do not actually target Republicans or undecided voters.

They target the New York and Washington liberals who donate to the Lincoln Project - to entice them to donate even more.
It's not a bad grift, TBH.

Imagine watching Antifags assault Boomer in NYC and thinking Boomer is a fascist for identifying the attackers because Orange Man Bad. Big-brained take, right there. LOL the original posters name is Nigro

It's called privilege. That's another thing that got me heated. THEY'LL be fine.

Wouldn't now be a good time to enact term limits for judges after RBG's passing?

I, too, once believed that term limits for Senators, Representatives, and Justice members was a good thing.
I now realize how wrong I was.

Why is it a bad thing?

 

[Gehenna]

Why is it a bad thing?

California gives the best reasons why. Effectively, they fail to gain any serious grasp of what they are supposed to and so lobbyists end up with a -ton- of power. If someone comes in and wants to make changes, the lobbyists just wait them out.

Why is it a bad thing?

Inadequate time to make and pass policy.
That is a purely subjective observation, but I believe it to be true.

 

[BubbleButt]

Much like in Banana Republic shitholes (sorry my South and Central American posting friends, but you know its the truth) they will use the fear of the removal of gibs to control their plantation niggers, and then use the fear of feral nogs to keep the middle class from doing anything as it is slowly squeezed dry.

Like the great sage and prophet Terry Davis said: "Just gotta round up the nigger cattle!"

 

[breadandcircuses]

Trump used his power to get a third term after being reelected.

And that's a problem why?

 

[Super-Chevy454]

The CCP is bribing corrupt african governments (i repeat myself) to extract resources and ensure they are economically subservient to China for the next 50 years, but they are far from taking over - they know better, Africa is full of niggers.

That reminds me of that video posted last summer when a Chinese guy shot an black guy in Zimbabwe.

Man, I find myself on the opposite end of my parents it seems when it comes to discussing Trump. I started a debate with them, and I admit, I lost pretty badly.

They brought up how Trump doesn't exactly seem concerned with uniting the nation so much as presenting his image, hasn't given up his tax records in three years, saying that while Biden has, Trump is gonna wait until after the election (which they see as him hiding something), hasn't properly addressed the white supremacy groups or done much to oppose them, pointed out the images of all those crying kids who have been separated from their parents due to the latter being deported (living conditions matter less than being with their loving mom and dad, as opposed to being orphaned or in foster homes), and in general, believe that he lacks integrity as a leader, having done more to divide when he should be making steps to unify the country, which they believe he could do, but deliberately doesn't.

When I asked them about the media bias and the like, they also acknowledged that, saying they go for one's they believe are a bit more credible, like AP, FOX and the BBC. In general, they aren't gonna vote for Trump.

Again, I didn't really know what to say to all that. What all could I bring up for the opposite side? Especially since they want me to think more for myself and to not believe everything I see on the internet?

Here you go. Disavow super cut.

I understand the flaws you are pointing out. And they are valid and definitely making me rethink my opinion on I
this!

Certainly it would be the goal for these politicians with seniority to have a grasp on less power, but I suppose that vacuum would be filled by lobbying corporations. We would need to get down to the root of the problem and reform the way we lobby. Unfortunately human nature dictates that people will always find a way to press their interests, so it is about that fine balance.

a few ideas I have brainstormed,, although I am not sure they would do much in regards to the big picture:

1. A cap on campaign spending, thus allowing entry level into political office to be that in which the common man could achieve.
2. A process where citizens may vote as they do in an election, for the policy which they support most. Make this anonymous, yet count the votes in the most public way possible.

At the very same time I feel like the limits might be a good incentive to actually learn how to work together with your own party and the other side. Especially if you want to do anything. People have a tendency to think about their legacies, should they have an end date in sight.

This is a precarious situation indeed.

 

[Some Random Soul]

I'm almost expecting as of late that Biden and Democrats are gonna try and pull an Al Gore again should they lose. Since we now have a 6-3 supermajority on the Supreme Court, I expect such a challenge to be shot down, but with the rulings coming out lately we'll never know.

West Philadelphia is in chaos! I was playing Batman: Arkham Knight yesterday and it donned on me that the rioting that is happening in the game, is happening in RL. What makes me sad is that Batman isn't here to beat up the rioters.
