***Official Political Discussion Thread***

The problem that often plagues the Dems is that they win by default. Republicans **** the bed so bad that people reluctantly go to the Dems. Trotting out Biden again was a huge mistake. I didn’t want him to run in 2020, he looked cooked to me back then but he had Covid on his side because 45 was so terrible at dealing with the pandemic. Dems don't have Covid anymore, Biden was saying he was going to run again for way too long. The party should’ve been preparing him to drop out a couple of years ago, preparing for a real primary. If Kamala loses, they need to start preparing for the next election before this year ends. Start getting some prospects ready.
 
Whole country full of idiots. It pains me to see that the race is this close. Like how the **** how? Even a smooth brained Koala can see Trump for the incompetent clown that he is. At this point, there's a part of me that wants him to win just so he can inflict his brand of maximum carnage, which will hurt the very people that voted for him the most.

Think about the types of people you knew since you were a kid.

2.0 GPA, always disrupting class, always in detention, fighting with teachers, making constant penis jokes, vandalizing @&@&, generally being the most annoying and obnoxious person you can thing of but somehow still being one of the most popular kids in school. In most civilized countries, this type of kid would be the one being bullied for being a complete idiot, but over here they’re idolized while people who want to focus in class get laughed at for trying too hard.

Those are the types of kids that grew up to become the people you and I might hate but a large percentage of Americans find entertaining and “real”.


Look at the types of people who are always in the spotlight in this country. When you have to keep saying “who the hell is actually a fan of Logan Paul, Kanye, (insert any of the other thousands of obnoxious celebrities here)” you’ll realize that you’re in the minority of people who look down on this type of behavior. Trump is just another one of those people. He’s not an exception
 
This is nothing new.. the easiest examples of this are the Irish, Italians and Greeks

Go watch some old movies (like the godfather) and check how they spoke about those groups and how quickly those groups have forgotten and now are quick to turn around on other marginalized groups

But people don’t realize the degree of self hate and skin complexion issues people got going globally and how quick they are to shut the door behind them or disparage some of their own people

But Hispanics are infamous for “I’m not black, I’m Puerto Rican” or some other BS to avoid calling themselves black
My colleague told me this the other week when her parents first arrived in Canada.
They faced a lot of backlash and she remembers going to the grocery store and the manager told them "we don't have your people's food here"
It took a long time for them to be accepted (they are from Italy).
 
Biden dropped the ball on immigration. It really is the only issue Trump won on. The economy is good. Even maga republican I know acknowledge this. GDP grew more under Biden than trump. Republican takes over with republicans admitting the economy is good?!

Not trying to undermine the singularity that is trump, just that I feel it removes ownership that dems dropped the ball.

Dems just don’t get it. Out of touch.
But there was an immigration bill that trump help kill and it’s now helping him get the victory. He’s a master manipulator and we can see that.
 
Still 230 to 210
Almost 1M ballots left in PA
Over 2.7M ballots left in MI
About 600k left in WI
1.75M left to count in AZ
NV hasn’t even started yet.

Disappointed to see GA turn red again but who would’ve thought Biden would take it 4 years ago on election night? I didn’t. He didn’t need it to win, but it was the cherry on top. Kamala doesn’t need GA to win, but like Biden in 2020 she needs PA, MI, MN, and WI as the path to the Oval Office.

That admiration never goes away for a lot of Americans. Look at the types of people who are always in the spotlight in this country. Trump is just another one of those people. He’s not an exception

Sounds exactly like how these social media influencers get such a big following for their pranks and stuff.... smh.
 
nah, Americans just gonna flip to Dems once Trump screws them over. just got to find a competent Presidential nominee and build that person up. i just can't see one party just holding office for an extended periord in our lifetime


I hope I’m wrong, but I think you’re overestimating the infrastructure and the ability Americans will have to actually do this whenever
