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

I don't think the Republican party truly understands the damage they have done to their brand in the last 15 years. They are literally clinging to the racist, aging white demographics and simply cannot pivot, despite all the obvious negatives it brings. Fukk this party.

Autopsy my ass.

I mean, they won the popular vote for the House in the 2022 midterms. Trump is also (apparently) tied in the Presidential race despite being a buffoon and lunatic,
and Repubs are expected to win the Senate.

Why would they pivot unless voters start punishing them?

the certification law doesn't come into effect until this new congressional session.

there's worry that the house doesn't choose a speaker and fails to initialize a new house in early january. if the GOP-led house doesn't do it , then biden and harris term ends, and the new president becomes patty murray. it wouldn't be a gop win but it would fukk over harris iirc

I've seen nothing to indicate this is the case.

Regardless, this would require a level of control in the house that Johnson has never displayed. His margin of error is next to zero and he doesn't have enough MAGA acolytes to pull it off.

Also, what would they even pivot to? Democrats have pincer-moved them ideologically and covered the ground in the center-right. What would a non-racist, aging, white Republican Party even be promoting in 2024?

Yeah, I think there are a lot of people that struggle to come to terms the fact that racism is popular and often helps politicians on the right.

I can understand, I wish it wasn't that way but it is. This will be forgotten about by Wednesday.

Imagine being Black & at this bullshyt

Go ahead & KYS

NO MERCY for Black Trump supporters

NONE.

 

[Reality Check]

I'd almost like to see them try. Biden would still be President on 1/6, and the Supreme Court gave him immunity.

Also the new congress gets sworn in on January 3rd and odds are Jeffries will be the majority leader on that date.

The last weekend (Rogan Podcast & MSG Nazi Rally) was supposed to be this great finale for the Trump campaign to create positive momentum and convince undecided voters to break for him.

Instead he was spouting dementia babble on Rogan and his Nazi Rally was too Nazi even for MAGA

I mean, i think you're oversimplifying the move to the center right.

Yes, Dems have moved to the center right on issues like immigration.

But Kamala is also campaigning on fighting price gouging by companies, lowering prescription drug prices, an increased child tax credit, homecare benefits for Medicare, etc.

Let's not let our narratives get in the way of the facts, some of you talk like she's running on a Joe Manchin platform.

The irony of the Tony Hinchcliffe situation is that that racist fukk went to Catholic school, and tried to make jokes about people having too many kids. You really can't make this shyt up.

Oprah platformed Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil



She keeps getting fooled by these scammers

one day later and I still don't know why the Trump campaign thought it would be a good idea to shyt on Puerto Rico in New York of all places and with large Rican populations in PA and Florida

You know damn well what this is about

He's getting his troops ready

Actually, let’s. We got an agenda to push here.

Don’t forget, Kamala’s rhetoric matters more than her policies and Trump’s vague policies that aren’t fascist (the fascist ones should be ignored completely) matter more than his rhetoric

These polls are way too close we just have to hope Trump doesn't overperform like 2016/2020 I guess
