@approxinfinity Oh yeah. Totally agree. Forgot about Bloomberg. Thank god it isn’t him. That’s why I said “at this point” meaning the pick is made, the primaries are over, etc.

So freaking scary.
-
Lmao Steve Bannon.
Damn near every advisor to that 2016 campaign is going to have spent time in jail.
This is hysterical!! How many more people close to Trump have to go to prison before it clicks?
-
@Kcmatt7 absolutely. Totally picking up what you’re dropping, my QAnon brother. </sad sarcasm>
-
Galaxy brain time. Maybe QAnon was right at the beginning when they said Robert Mueller was Q??
-
Actually I’m Q and I use this account to throw off the scent.

No idea if this is true or not. If true, lol.

I asked a member of the RNC about this. They told me due to covid they couldn’t bring the whole platform committee together so they just adopted the 2016 platform.

@FarmerJayhawk were they trying to do it by mail?

Ha! Might have been easier than teaching a bunch of older folks how to use Zoom tbh
-
@FarmerJayhawk a cop out. I expected nothing more.
They don’t have aides that could help them use a computer?
“Continued enthusiastic support of Trump’s America First agenda…” 176,802 dead and counting. Still first!
-
Wasn’t trump making fun of the virtual dnc for being so boring, shooting speeches ahead of time, Michelle being 20,000 deaths short
. 
I thought they were going to be live?
-
Wow they actually have a couple that pointed their guns at BLM protesters as speakers?

Yeah but… No amendments to the platform right? Was that part of the 2016 platform then?

No, they’re all volunteers. I’m not defending it, that’s just what the committee voted to do. Platforms are garbage that nobody reads or cares about anyway since the parties are so weak ¯_(ツ)_/¯

-
@FarmerJayhawk wow that’s sad. So… Why not sell the house and move to a nicer neighborhood? I mean… It sounds like the Democratic Party would be a likely landing spot for disillusioned conservatives. Force the Democratic party to stay centrist and the progressives have to jump ship or stay anchored.
-
@approxinfinity I’ve never been a Republican, probably a touch more to the right than left on most subjects. But both parties have just grown into a bunch of hypocritical fools. They changed back and forth on what they believe. Look up Democrats as recently as Clinton, then go back to Kennedy and FDR. All 3 of those guys would be considered far right if they were running today. The two party system has failed us for much of my life by making us choose between the lesser of evils. If really want change (Obama preached it but little actually changed) vote 3rd party.
-
The change I want is this ass-clown out or the oval office. The problem with a dichotomy is that it is self perpetuating. One does not want to give up leverage to the “greater of two evils” with no chance of victory for the 3rd party candidate you would like to support. And running a convincing winning campaign as a third party candidate to date has not been very plausible. Maybe if third parties get better at leveraging social media or something. Build online pacts to agree they will all vote for the 3rd party guy, etc.

I watched the DNC last week and it reinforced all the reasons I’m not a Democrat
-
@FarmerJayhawk well, I can’t say I watched most of it; I didn’t. And I can’t say i didn’t see any stupid moments. So, I’m open to something better. I just can’t trust the Republican Party.
-
@approxinfinity I’m very happy as an independent. In North Carolina independents can vote in either primary so I’ll be one for the foreseeable future.
-
I’m not registered with either party. It’s the same here in Virginia re: primaries, for now.
-
Reminder Trump appointed this guy

Reminder he was unanimously confirmed by the Senate to multiple executive branch posts and rated as qualified by the ABA. Some rando named Elena Kagan never tried any cases before getting 60some votes to be a Supreme Court Justice.
-
Scotus and the federal judiciary system will be worse due to Trump appointees imo. Mostly due to scotus being so far right now. I’m just here to dump on Trump.
-
Wheeeeew this speech is bad.
-
I heard no one is wearing a mask. On brand.
-
I need to teach him make up skills! First, boys don’t wear it.
-
@BShark Herman Cain is waiting! These lies are making me
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think ivanka is co president, we we we. I heard she told LEGO story before only it was her that made it.
️
-
I just want to take a spatula to his face, scrape that off!
-
I try to be responsible and listen to both conventions. But after the events of this week combined with listening to the poisonous rhetoric from Trump, I want to mail my ballot ASAP and then go live in a cave until Nov 4.

I’ve worn some a few times in school plays and tv hits ¯_(ツ)_/¯. I didn’t hear the Herman Cain line. There was a lot going on there
-
Herman Cain died after the Tulsa campaign rally, Covid. He was right in the middle of it, no mask. I guess that’s what you are asking.

Ah, gotcha. Met him years ago at another event, super nice guy. Rest In Peace.

Lol at the right constantly talking about the “indoctrination of our youth” and then their fearless leader literally signs an order doing just that
-
@Kcmatt7 Can’t imagine what could possibly go wrong with that…

Schools certainly shouldn’t teach history from a CRT/1619 frame. They also shouldn’t teach only that America is awesome and has never done wrong. Both sides can shove it.
-
Thank you @mayjay for the reminder to point out abhorrent stuff. Trump only cares for himself, he literally could not care less about veterans. https://x.com/acyn/status/1824244644714369470?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
-
@FarmerJayhawk interesting thread you revived, rereading my earlier comments i see someone else. More passion, more anxiety, far less chill. Maybe a few more braincells, maybe less heart.
-
How in the hell is it possible that I’ve not seen (or don’t remember) THIS thread???
Everyone needs to step back and take a collective breath. There is only ONE candidate that is fit for this position. He is the clear choice to live among and lead HIS people. He WILL be the President !!! Of
THE TRANS-ALLEGHENEY LUNATIC ASYLUM
-
@nuleafjhawk I think we all kinda memory holed 2020 lol
-
This thread is a reminder of why we need ranked choice voting in this nation for elections and to heavily modify or abolish the Electoral College to more accurately reflect how the population of states actually vote.
-
And we need to arrange it so that imbeciles, perverts and criminals are not allowed to run for office.
-
@nuleafjhawk I’d love to see how that would work!
-
@mayjay me too!

This is the way
-
@nuleafjhawk that covers 90% of the people in office.
-
@kjayhawks Probably 90% of humankind, to be honest.
