    People have been saying its looking bad for Team Harris ever since she started to run, but the polls havn't really budged.

    One thing is for sure. Someone is going to get a shock on November the 6th(or 7th, or 9th).

    Dear everyone that I currently know,

    If you say or do anything controversial then I don't know you at all.

    Sincerely,

    Donald

    Trump has definitely been transparent about what will happen on the day he is sworn into office [if he is elected]. He'll have camps opened to hold the aliens and other persons he will expel from the US as he won't be able to put the millions he spoke of on planes, boats and trains from day one. Quite simply trains and camps will have to be at the centre of his expulsion plans. Welcome to his vision for the US in 2025.

    Because Britain really knows how to do corruption and chronism - whilst managing to remain looking respectable.

    "Trump admitted that he had a secret plan with Speaker Johnson to corrupt the election process."

    Where did he say that ?

    I heard he mentioned some "plan" with Johnson but I didn't know that any of the details had been described?

    Whether he said it or not ,it would seem to be his m.o. and I wonder how successful he could be in his telegraphed attempts to steal the election (if defeated) this time.

    He said it during his speech on Sunday.

    The latest thing that was super weird. Whatever it is/was, I'd say Johnson was wishing the ground would open up and swallow him when Trump said it as creepily as he did.

    I'd say Jack Smyth's ears picked up when he said it.

    The issue is if the Republicans win the house majority and then are in control of the certification process. They can try to do all sorts of unconstitutional things if they control the agenda of the certification process.
    Its important for the Democrats to win back the House as well as the Presidency.

    The GOP is a criminal organisation and this stage and they will try anything - legal or illegal to steal the election - nothing is beyond them. Remember the only thing that stopped them last time was Mike Pence following his constitutional duty to the letter.

    Umm… I was going to ask if Speaker Johnson could be relied on to help the GOP recant it's Trump-loyalism, revoke the wholesale take-over of the RNC by Trump and help the RINO's with a coup d'etat over the Trump GOP faction but if Trump didn't lie in saying he had a secret plan with the same speaker concerning the outcome of the election, my question would be purposeless…

    If a plan exists outside the imagination of Trumps brain, one can only hope it has less success than Trump's last attempt.

    That comedian was at the tom Brady roast making even worse jokes than that and the celebrity audience were laughing their heads off, even those who were the butt of his jokes. He roasts people, its what he does. Weird choice for a political rally so close to the election though. If they don't know who he is, why pick him? I've never listened to his podcast but I gather it's popular so they just saw that and went with it?

    HANG MIKE JOHNSON
    just hasn’t got the same ring to it.

    Johnson was balls deep in the Jan 6th plot. He is a threat to democracy.

    I think I saw something about Barron Trump organising speakers, not sure if he did.

    That's the thing; a celebrity roast, his own shows, that Kill Tony thing he does... those jokes are pretty much acceptable there because that's what those shows are.

    A political rally for a candidate one week before the election and where you're invited by that candidate to speak to the electorate.... your words/jokes become the campaign's words/jokes.

    As to why they chose him, for some reason it seems like Barron Trump has been giving them advice on popular podcasts and comedians for the young male audience. So the likes of Theo Von, Andrew Schultz, that guy who gave Trump a watch and a Cybertruck then had to take them back (can't remember his name and can't be arsed goggling it), and now Tony Hinchcliffe. All just aimed at the young male audience. After all, none of them are going to care about Dr.Phil, or seeing Hulk Hogan struggle to rip his shirt off.

    The campaign saw his material because they told him to pull a piece where he referred to Kamala as the C word. So him being a roast type comedian isn't really relevant.

    He was, and he was allowed on stage to say something they knew he was going to say.

    Also, because it is very relevant. It wasn't just him or the jokes he told.

    Several speakers said stuff that was way out of line, or should be considered as such.

    Like this guy. You should listen to all of this, it's less than 2 minutes. But specifically from 0:46 to 1:16 or so.

    Everything about Sunday night is on the shoulders of the GOP, Trump and all who emboldened him. If he loses next week, most of them will spend the next few months trying to distance themselves from it, but all too many (Stephen Miller, Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk and the likes) will regroup and try to influence the next race.

    Allegedly and according to at least one mention the rally organizers were aware of the scripted "jokes" Hinchcliffe had planned to use and platform from the rally stage and had struck one off his list as not to be used [on a NSFW basis for the rally] as it referred to the other candidate rather crudely. I'd say he was vetted in the same way the Trump campaign choose people now where it comes to their candidates safety. As for taste, the scripted "joke" vetting seems to have failed on the night itself and may yet have blotted Trumps hopes in some states.

    Jesus, teenagers are stupid. What are they thinking? They'll be getting an endorsement from skibidi toilet next at this rate lol



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,026 ✭✭✭✭duploelabs


    What's worse is that said comedian wanted to call Kamala a cnut but that was vetoed by the trump team, whereas the PR joke was allowed

    Would Harris garner favourable publicity if she came out and said that Trump didn't want to call a woman a cuùnt (this time) but was happy to let it slip that he thought Puerto Ricons were garbage dwellers?

    I remember when he called one of his opposing lawyers a ct in code on a piece of paper.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,684 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    Is he wearing a 'bald head wig'?

    Anyway, I heard the Hinchcliffe performance and whatever about the content of the jokes, he didn't strike me as a very good comedian - he had no timing and he sounded bored. Is that how comedy is done now? And your man with the bald head wasn't any better, no presentation at all, sounded like a guy in a bar telling feeble jokes to people who wished he wouldn't.

    Somebody just interrupted Bannon's press conference to ask him when the next insurrection will be and can they target a Burger King. As for the press conference itself it was the usual conspiracy theory stuff (and threats when things don't go their way).

    Trump on Harris: She's immoral and will destroy the US… I think, if he's elected, one of the first things he'll do is hold a prayer session at the White House with various religious types laying hands on his head again, purely to demonstrate he's not a sinner but a winner with extra-terrestrial blessing.

    Another low energy presser, airing grievances about Michelle Obama of all people, nothing said about MSG, and left without taking any questions.

    Starting to look like a man snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Elect a clown... Expect a circus



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,921 ✭✭✭✭Frank Bullitt


    Trumps conference was so weird, it is all hyperbole with him as well, "never an event like this", when of course…in the 1930's there very much was.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,032 ✭✭✭✭Ash.J.Williams


    Never mind tony hinchcliffe what about the woman talking god at the start as if trump is the 2nd coming ?
