The left still donât get it. Pounded into submission by the electorate but still continue to vilify everyone who voted for Trump. âGarbageâ.
Happy to be morally superior but ignore the concerns of ordinary people over the economy, immigration, men playing womenâs sports etc. Trump is very popular for a reason.
Because lots of people like fascism when the information environment conditions them to like it?
Whatâs wrong with being morally superior?
Whatâs good about being morally inferior?
What do these terms even mean?
Go on.
People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You canât trust people.
Itâs all Yellow for the woke brigade today, anyway.
âI refuse to think, therefore, I amâ could be the catchphrase of Trump supporters both on this forum and Trump supporters at large.
Brains are only for women and the effete.
Let your inner dinosaur out.
Better comparison.
There will be an âelectionâ in 2028 alright. But sure Putin has âelectionsâ.
Youâve mentioned Israel, I donât think it would have been determinative but she lost lots of voters on it, especially in swing states. It was huge in Michigan. She didnât do well with youth.
I didnât follow it closely but I didnât hear her make much if any arguments on the economy or on immigration. The massive investment in infrastructure and the jobs record under Biden, and the Republicans responsibility for stoping the immigration reform. I think they just ceded those two areas that they were perceived to be weak on.
Buttigieg would make a great leader, but letâs be frankâŚThe US sadly arenât ready for a gay man to get elected to the highest seat in office. I wouldnât let Shapiro within a country mile of the presidency, and Newsomâs ex-wife makes him a complete liability candidate. The dems need to re-think the whole show. Time to take a gamble and to tell Israel to go fuck themselves with an electric cattle prod.
Has Kamala, or any of the woke lads, made a formal concession speech?
This was the only bit of real biting satire Iâve seen come out of America in years. Itâs a pisstake called âPraxis Girlâ by this wan called Simone Norman (who used to work as a staffer for Bernie Sanders) of a certain type of upper class tankie pretend leftist epitomised by the presenters of the anti-woke pretend left wing, now pro-Putin/Trump adjacent podcast âRed Scareâ, who are basically an example of horseshoe theory.
Itâs esoteric but itâs fucking class.
That and the Behind The Bastards podcast which has an audience of about 20.
Two examples of prominent and absolutely shit âsatireâ in recent years which summed up Americaâs stupidity as a country were the series of mimes by Sarah Cooper to the words of Donald Trump - yeah miming, great - Milli Vanilli did that - hilarious and not a completely oblivious normalisation of Trump as a mere entertainment character rather than a vicious fascist, oh no.
Then there was the video of some tosser putting a shit electronic beat over Trump saying âtheyâre eating the dogs, theyâre eating the catsâ that got about 20 billion views. Again definitely not a complete normalisation of Trump as a âcharacterâ rather than a vicious fascist and definitely not a completely untalented steam of poo designed to appeal to total morons, oh no.
Anyway, back to Colbert and Stewart. Cue mindless laughter of the sort The Simpsons used to satirise before it went completely corporate and shit.
Trump has already sealed the border.
Heâs a QUARE, therefore heâs a dangerous radical extremist
Not a peep, I also donât know if she rang Trump yet to concede. Hillary 2.0.
Edit - I see Sky are saying her speech will be at 9pm.
Will she be laughing like the joker in the concession speech ?
Trying to do a day of work amid the crushing disappointment.
Youâre a strange fella.
And if sheâd stood up to Israel she would have been vilified by the entirety of the US media including so called liberal media and donors would have deserted her and supported Trump instead and sheâd have been vilified as a Holocaust denier and an operative of Hamas and ISIS. Which Trump pretty much did anyway to be fair. But Jews would have deserted her and sheâd have been destroyed totally.
The Democrats are absolutely shit at bigging themselves up on the economy. Very shit at it. Even though Democrats are consistently better for the economy than Republicans. 50 million jobs created under Democratic presidents to 1 million under Republican presidents since 1988.
You were right about the Dems, they suck at politics.
When 71m people vote for an imbecile who 27 women have accused of sexual assaultâŚyour game is flawed.
Iâd struggle to remember one really strong Harris soundbite. She doesnât register in that way. They need to persuade Michelle Obama to run next time, streamline their message and probably tailor it more around the economy and traditional family values.
There is a cult of personality built up around Trump that his son Vance could just inherit and it is only that star power of the Obamas that can combat it. I donât think policy comes into it over there, itâs noteriety. I think MO will do it as itâs an interesting challenge and thereâll be a rapid hunger again around the party post Trump. Itâs her own chance at greatness and to bury MAGA. As written above, Harris wasnât an outstanding candidate and they didnât really give her the best chance. MO wouldâve had Biden out of there the day after that debate. Kamala needed to be stronger.
If they want to win and they canât get Michelle Obama, they should look at Dwayne Johnson. It sounds ridiculous but thatâs where they are. Vance will be riffing and talking shit and they need someone who can fire back in kind like Obama could.
