2024 U.S. Presidential Election Thread: Donald Trump wins & will return to the White House; GOP wins U.S. Senate & U.S. House

[Pressure]

They didn’t waste their time, all they want to do is complain that liberals aren’t progressive enough

They were struggling because Biden has invested in climate control, reduce prescription drug prices and unemployment is low. They had to give up on criminal justice reform because it makes them sound crazy

They latched onto Gaza because it is something they could bash Liberals about that would be taken seriously.

Biden put the far left into a precarious state.

So you think they’re just using this as a wedge issue in hopes of gaining control over the party like the tea party did?

 

[mastermind]

It's happening

No its not.

And since there is no arms embargo, the deal was always bunk to make doofuses who say and dap posts like "its happening" feel good about supporting a genocide.

No, you're the genocidal maniacs.


You guys conveniently continue to ignore what the other side is trying to accomplish.


Shame on you

That's a terribly written headline. Probably should have rewritten that before tweeting it out.

That's a terribly written headline.

It's awful

 

[wire28]

You know a scam when you see one.

We got a couple good “brothers” in here willing to walk on hot coals to vote for cornel west. I’m sure they agree with the GOP on this one.

[YakSpiller]

Funniest thing I’ve ever read

It would make sense if they had an end goal in mind but sadly they just want to make noise

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Democratic politicians, their consultants, and morning cable news channels are the only people who care about these goofy as republicans who are still pieces of shyt to the core but at least aren't supporting a traitor. These people are swine the Lincoln party, liz chaney all of them can burn in the same fire as Trump when its all said and done.

 

[KushSkywalker]

Who said the protests would stop if Trump wins people just making up straw men at this point

I actually think they would.

Obviously, that's just an opinion.

Or at least reduce significantly.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz looked to the gridiron to push his vision for politics on Sunday as he and Vice President Kamala Harris dropped by a high school football team’s practice in western Pennsylvania on Sunday.

Harris’ running mate ― a former high school football coach in Minnesota ― told the squad at Aliquippa Junior/Senior High School that politics have been “pretty ugly” and “pretty negative,” adding that he fears young people will turn away from it rather than turning into it.
“Politics isn’t so much different than this,” declared Walz, who was a defensive coordinator when he helped lead the Mankato West varsity team from a reputation of losing to a state championship in the late 1990s.

He continued, “It’s about something bigger than themselves. It’s about setting a future goal and trying to reach it. It’s about doing it with dignity and hard work. It’s about doing it with humility and when you lose, you walk across the field, you shake hands with the other team and know they played hard, too. But we’re all in it together to try and make it better.”

Walz then described the fourth quarter of a football game at the high school where “somebody has to step up” before teammates realize that they trust each teammate to the side of them.
“Our country’s not that different,” Walz said as he addressed the team on their field.
“Our neighbors wanna be with ya, our neighbors wanna do what’s right and the more we figure out that we’re in this thing together and we have more in common than we have separated, we’re gonna do a heck of a lot better.”

Dude is a stunning speaker and communicator. Superb choice for VP. He's not bringing one particular state, in the traditional fashion, but a whole demographic who'll now feel reckoned with. Combined with Kamala's smarts and presidential vision, this is an amazing ticket. x.com

This man is effortlessly linking Democratic party values to the emotional foundations of American football culture as part of a Presidential campaign.

If I had read it in a screenplay, I’d have told you that it’s a lovely feel good story, but such a politician doesn’t exist. x.com

This is absolutely unreal. He touches on almost every major theme, stuff we haven’t even gotten to. Defending politics as something positive is deeply, powerfully strategic. Tapping into old magic here. x.com

[the cac mamba]

might be leaning a little too hard into the identity politics

 

[CrimsonTider]

No its not.




And since there is no arms embargo, the deal was always bunk to make doofuses who say and dap posts like "its happening" feel good about supporting a genocide.

Is the only reason Hamas is not committing genocide because their bombs can’t reach the people of Isreal?
