Trump really did have the most consensual sex scandal of any president.
-
Its too early in my workday for you to have broken my brain with this observation.
-
Also really highlights how little people care about certain things considering all the terrible shit he's done to all his wives
-
-
Did you hear? He also pinky swore he would never pardon his son (likely because he knows he'll never need to)! Don't you just love him for this empty promise of moral superiority?
-
am i a lib because i do believe in voting just not for shitty corporate parties? i was all in for cornel west when he announced but the bernie movement didn't show up to get hin the ballot access needed so i'm going stein. She'll be on the ballot in at least 48 states.
-
Ill probably tic her box too but she's allowed on the ballot (and i know you know this) cuz the green party poses no threat to the caps. No positive sustained MSM coverage on a candidate erases that candidate from the public consciousness. It's quite amazing how well it works, the 2 party mindset. Theres no harm in voting for her, increased 3rd party turnout might pave the way for even stronger future showings, yeah. To say you believe in voting when it is so thoroughly corrupted in the us, and when there's no chance she'll win raises the question: what is it that you believe still works?
Tonal check, i am honestly curious not fighting with you.

Trump winning 2024 isn't anyone's fault but the Democratic Party's.
Not only does our votes not really matter, but it's hard to even pretend voting can even change anything at this point. The DNC had one job, and that was to win against Trump. And for some God damn reason, they thought Biden was their guy. Our system is a fucking joke.
He won in 2020 because it was a clown show to begin with. If they actually want to do anything worth while, they need to push actual likeable candidates that millennials, zoomers, and marginalized people don't feel disgusted in voting for.
I know the "just like me frfr" meme exists but like it's literally a blueprint for a win for them. But instead they wanna try and attract people so old they are gonna die halfway through this next term so it doesn't even matter. Dems just need to run a young socdem and it's an easy victory. I don't know why this is so hard for them.

E2: I didn't realize this comment got this much traction. Jerboa and crappy mountain Internet isn't giving me notifications. I tried to read through and do follow up comments but y'all have spot on analyses as usual.

Let's be really clear - 2020 was the start of a literally biblical level world plague. It goes beyond a clown show. The dems just had to show up.
-
And he still barely won.
-
Lol true.
-
-
Dems just need to run a young socdem and it's an easy victory. I don't know why this is so hard for them.
it is against the material interest of the democratic party to hold and wield power
-
They really are just the GOP's victory catalyst at this point in our history.
-
-
It seems like there's a bunch of establishment critters who have been wringing him for Obama-era nostalgia 'till antimatter starts coming out.
-
I feel like his whole campaign was hinging on Obama nostalgia and his sunglasses "buddy Biden ice cream" memes for sure.
-
-
💯

I miss notifications a good third(?) of the time and I don't have either of those causes, I think it's just a lemmy issue
-
You lose notifications when somebody else replies to the reply, so if your post blows up you might be the last to know.

Turns out doing literal genocide and paying for it with record high prices on food and housing is a losing strategy. Who could have guessed
-
ok but have you considered that trump would call the genocide he's unconditionally arming extremely very good instead of calling the genocide he's unconditionally arming very very good?? checkmate tankkkies
-
And telling his own voters that it's not a genocide and then gaslighting them with the classic "Trump would do an even worse genocide" like what the fuck
-
-
Didn't you hear OP? Drumpf was convicted and is a felon, and Biden 'took action' on 'alarmingly high' numbers of migrants crossing into the US, which will also make Republicans look like hypocrites when they oppose it
Biden will win by 400 electoral votes
-
It would be so funny if the core dem base will get complacent because they've convinced themselves that Trump can't possibly win now.
-
-
Biden better start cancelling student debt and arming Palestinians fast if he doesn't want to lose then
-
Real talk, libs would flip their shit if he actually armed Palestine. A ceasefire to stop torturing babies on camera is something even many cynical libs can support. Arming a group that CNN calls terrorists would quickly remind us why libs are fucking tools
-
stop torturing babies on camera is something even many cynical libs can support.
Their politics are really just "I don't like what I'm seeing on TV and I would like to speak to the writers please." Talking to my boomer relatives, the thing that bothers them the most about Trump 2: Electric Boogaloo is that they will have to see him on the news again
-
-
Genuinely at this point if he wants me to vote for him it’s more than a ceasefire I need, I want air strikes against Tel Aviv and military aid going directly to Hamas
And while I certainly don’t think that’s like, the majority opinion, I do think it would give him a much higher chance of winning than what he’s doing right now
-
I want air strikes against Tel Aviv and military aid going directly to Hamas
-
-
Maybe bombing more people will pump those numbers up
-
If the democrats were really worried about it, they would start bombing republicans
-
Best he can do is continue extremely cruel immigration policy and ignore an active genocide
-
-
I just can't get hard for this one. Last one was fun cause of Trump derangement syndrome. I feel like everyone will just be phoning it in this time.
-
50,000 vote election
-
I just can't get hard for this one.
Lmao I'm going to start using this for completely nonsexual things too
-
It is the best way to use it.
-
-
reharden your cock, you'll love this next hour
-
-
Well if that happens I will personally blame libs for vote shaming people and empowering fascists.
-
I do that already
-
No you're right. The bullshittery of libs is how we got here in the first place.
-
-
-
I still think that Trump fatigue and the repeal of Roe give him enough of a floor that there's no chance of a complete electoral teeth kicking, but if I still gave a shit about the Democrats I'd be worried.
-
"You think there will be elections? Well think again Jack!" - Generalissimo Biden
- President Biden El Presidente Biden
-
All those times hes (unintelligible) hes actually just speaking spanish thats coming back into his brain from highschool in the 50s
-
-
-
I don’t really know if it would be a blowout but a close win is likely for either.
-
It's going to depend on how much open support for genocide, crashing economy, and failed proxy war in Ukraine will alienate people.
-
-
I was reading this thread and like “damn, lemmy really turning a corner, proud of y’all mfs” then I realized its a hexbear thread lol
-
🤣
-
-
idk about blowout (who knows with electoral college) but vote share will be really close at least.
-
I think Biden eeks out a win just barely.
-
I can't see how myself. The blue no matter who base isn't sufficient to get him across the line, and he's basically alienated everyone else at this point. Meanwhile, Trump's base is only becoming more galvanized by the day.
