Do you realize that you are comparing the crappier parts of the US to Afghanistan? It’s like you’re shitting on yourself. You can move to Afghanistan if you like that culture. We’re not going to give away human rights to protect your feefees.
Do you not know that life expectancy is lower in the crappy states? They’re at the level of third world countries.
Yesssssss. It’s about looking powerful. These are people who drive big trucks and don’t use them. A powerful image is important to them.
They value hierarchy and rules that don’t apply to them. Without anyone who plays along, they don’t feel good. They need someone to be upset at their giant Trump flag or there’s no point to it.
Yes, they “have the authority” because Biden and Trump agreed to have them host the debate. RFK Jr. (big emphasis on Junior) is intentionally excluded because he’s nuts, and that’s before the brainworms.
Nah, that doesn’t give Trump any advantage. He can just go on Fox any time he wants and have a “pretend debate” with no one. There are still rules to the reality Trump supporters have in their heads.
Basically, Trump supporters want to see him as better than someone else. So that other person has to play along. If you notice, the Republicans who support Trump have to pretend that he’s better than them when they give speeches. It’s just a modern monarchy (a conservative form of government).
Biden doesn’t play along, so he actually doesn’t look weak. Trump was begging for a debate and was ignored (looks weak). Biden said “let’s debate” and Trump accepted. No one ever accepted Trump’s debate on Fox, so rejecting it actually makes Biden look more powerful.
Biden should wait until Monday, then back out saying he sees no need to debate a (potential) convicted felon. Let the media go nuts.
Old people and lonely people. People who are insecure and want to talk to others, but they have few people willing to put up with them. Trump voters.
And despite the prevalence of the Israel-Palestine conflict, the issue does not seem to be the driver of Biden’s base or electorate troubles.
“Defections over Gaza make up a little over 1 percent of Biden’s 2020 vote share. That’s not nothing, but also that’s such a small share. If you want to look at why Biden is sliding, the bigger reason is obviously the economy,” Jain told me. “If you look at people defecting over Gaza, 17 percent of them think that it’s because he’s been too favorable to Palestine.”
It’s the economy, stupid.
This is more of a warning to not listen to pollsters. 10% of voters are definitely not going to vote for this guy, maybe one or two percent. Clearly the polls are way off.
Don’t even listen to them. Vote. Help your favored candidate. Donate if you want to. Help get out the vote.
That’s the definition of meaningless. All these polls ask “if the election were held today…”. It’s not being held today, and everyone acts based on that.
There’s no GOTV push yet, and campaigns structure their spending based on when the actual election is. Voters almost always vote based on something that happens near the election when they are paying attention.
They were put in a box by Trump’s refusal to admit any guilt, even for things that are not crimes.
Any normal defense attorney would admit the fact that their client cheated on their wife and tried to cover it up. Those are not illegal, and are pretty defamatory, so you can have the judge exclude any testimony about the act.
Then it’s just a boring documents case. The jury doesn’t pay as much attention when the evidence is less interesting, so the prosecution’s case seems weaker.
Why wouldn’t that man ask to lose excess body fat? He would be ripped and his enemy would be emaciated.
It’s funny because his lawyers are in court right now arguing that Michael Cohen did not act on Trump’s behalf. Meanwhile, there’s a parade of losers outside clearly acting on Trump’s behalf.
The defense lawyers don’t really have a coherent argument, but part of their strategy is to pretend Michael Cohen used his own home equity loan to pay off Stormy Daniels for no reason. As if that’s totally normal. We’ve all (at some point) acted in Donald Trump’s best interest, not at his direction, right?
There’s a basic problem with replacing human experts with AI. Where will they get their info from with no one to scrape? Other AI generated content?
They can’t learn anything and are just “standing on the shoulders of giants”. These companies will fire their software developers, just to hire them back as AI trainers.
Fucking vote.
While they remain overwhelmingly aligned with President Joe Biden, his level of support is lower than in 2020. And Donald Trump’s Black support is often clocking in at levels that would outpace all previous Republican nominees in the modern era.
These findings have produced understandable skepticism, fueled by red herring polls in past campaigns suggesting surprising levels of Black GOP support that failed to materialize on Election Day.
🤨
Ozma, you need a hobby. Biden is living rent free in your head.
At this point Ozma has run out of goodwill. Just block and be done with it.
