    If he was a villain in a movie you'd think him unrealistic.

    He **** on a golden toilet. Anyone who thinks he's on the side of the average working person is so unbelievably stupid

    politicians and Their supporters who lose elections have become very quick to blame the enthusiasm and intelligence of the electorate.

    In a democracy the decision of the electorate is always the correct decision by definition.

    IIf politicians and parties don't like the decision it's up to them to address the failings of their policies and candidates, not simply wish for a "better" electorate.

    For all Trumps failings and denials about the 2020 election result, he never blamed the voters for his loss.

    If Trump wins, I'm assuming he also wins the Senate and the Congress, he already has the Scotus.

    That's all 4 branches of government. There are no limits to what he can do.

    According to Agenda 2025, he'll also replace the civil service with sycophants.

    If Trump gets in, it's not just him that wins, it's the fascists behind him who also get in

    Yes, but they both hate other groups equally so they can look beyond that for the greater evil.

    All of his speeches released online by tesla or twitter or any official channels are heavily edited to make him look good

    Immigration big part of his speech so far



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,388 ✭✭✭LessOutragePlz


    I think any sane person knows that unlimited illegal immigration is a bad thing for any country.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,225 ✭✭✭✭Akrasia


    And you think Kamala Harris is in favour of unlimited illegal immigration?

    Who's arguing that though?

    No sane person would rant about the immigrants eating people's pets.

    I'd have more faith in Trump to tackle the issue than Kamala, herself & Biden haven't done a good job at managing it over the last 3.5 years.

    I see Joe Rogan admitted he didn’t want to ask him for facts about his points.


    I wish Joe or someone would just ask him as a father does he think it’s ok to say you can grab women by the pussy as they will do anything for you once you’re powerful.


    Does Joe have daughters? Is there a ban on asking him about that recording?


    How do these fathers of daughters think this talk is ok??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,805 ✭✭✭EltonJohn69


    Trump spent his term building a wall that didn’t work and failing to get Mexico to pay for it. Then when out of office he forced the republicans to block a border reform deal….. he has a terrible record.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,952 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    Great Trump rally Madison Square Garden full millions watching online.

    As for the border, Harris was the border czar and failed miserably controlling the southern border so what is she going to do different if elected?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,805 ✭✭✭EltonJohn69


    how could kermode het it so wrong, Brando gives such a mesmerising performance.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,388 ✭✭✭LessOutragePlz


    More illegal immigrants have entered the USA under the Biden/Harris regime than Trump

    Do you believe that Harris has a better record of managing illegal immigration than Trump does?



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Something like that border deal that Trump had blocked so you could make this very point.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,285 ✭✭✭✭Strazdas


    Trump has said he intends to deport 'millions' of people. Critics have pointed out it costs $20,000 to deport a single person.

    I’ve watched the speech live so far - I can now see the attraction for some maybe many Americans - he’s selling a dream - yes it’s made up- yes he’s claiming he can solve all the problems - yes he’s claiming how brilliant he was in the past - yes he’s using fear- yes he’s using very decisive language and heavily criticising Harris and Biden -yes he’s using humour - and yes, it’s “entertainment” in a very twisted way.


    Good point by one of the commentators - 50% will be looking at this in horror and 50% will be looking at this and laughing .


    Another point around the economy by the commentators - economy isn’t bad but it hasn’t yet trickled down to peoples pay packets - the “affordability” aspect for this crowd tonight certainly resonated


    im watching this as im really interested to see what all the fuss is about and just why the polls are so close - Trump unscripted when “on form” which he is this evening- I can see how he can stir up the crowd but also stir up the millions watching - it’s early Sunday evening in New York - he’ll have a serious viewing audience with this - certainly not good for the Harris camp - this will make an impact have no doubt



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭I.R.Y.E.D


    True given that they rant about Muslims just as much and about other groups.

    Even closer to home you have those who aren't firing on all cylinders claiming among other rambling nonsense about elites, soy boys etc that the Ukraine situation is due to Zelenskyy being Jewish.

    Did Biden try to do anything that may have been blocked by Republicans in the senate?

    Just asking questions here

    Also, Trump's way of tackling immigration is so stupid. Locking children in cages, and building a border wall that costs hundreds of billions of dollars and can be defeated by a 50 dollar rope

    Seeing as how Harris isn't the President and Trump was…. so how many illegal immigrants entered the US when Trump was President? How many entered under Biden? I'm curious with the figures as there seems to be confusion between actual illegal immigrants that are in the US, those stopped at the border and those deported. All 3 figures can and do be taken out of context so easily.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,225 ✭✭✭✭Akrasia


    He doesn't talk about his border wall anymore btw. I wonder why

    So Brando didn't actually die 20 years ago, he's been playing his greatest role all that time? Presumably the real Trump's been locked in one of his golden closets or something…



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,030 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Ricky Martin and J Lo have both also come out to support Harris on Instagram.

    280M followers between them.

    Florida could be in play after this. That clip from the comedian is going be viewed a 100 million times this week. Incredible stuff.

    Trump will say (if asked, which is unlikely) that the cheque is in the post!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭blackcard


    It is very sad that hatefulness, as espoused by Trump, seems likely to win the election. Looking from the outside as someone who has admired the US as a leader in democracy, against Russia and Communism, the best at film, music, sport, science, business, who has given us leaders such as FDR, JFK, that a narcacissistic, mysogynistic, racist, sexist, loathsome, lying person could be seen as the better option is insane

    Regime ? That’s an interesting choice of words you think the Biden administration is illegitimate ? Authoritarian ?

    Trump ordered immigration reform to be blocked, he used the issue as a political toy, similar to how he used Ukraine as a political toy, he has a disgusting and ineffective record. Biden actually worked with republicans and compromised to get a deal that both Democrat’s and Republican’s were happy with. Trumps ego got in the way, he doesn’t actually care about America, he is a narcissist, incapable of seeing the big picture, it’s all about how it effects him, what does he get out of the deal.
