Harris Vs Trump 2024 US Presidential election - read the warning in the OP posted 18/09/24

I was making a few points.
One was that both sides supporters can’t concede when their candidate takes a misstep. I find it bizarre.

The replies I received have proven my point.

When the Irish election happens I’ll be picking the candidate who is the closest fit for my current wants/needs for the country.

You can be absolutely sure that candidate will be flawed and have done things or have views I don’t align with also.

It depends on what the definition of a Trump supporter is I guess, especially on this thread.

One who fanatically supports him ?

One who thinks the net positive outcome of a Trump presidency is greater for them than that of a Harris presidency ?

One may hate Trump the person but still vote or support him, alot of people dont like what the modern Democrat party has become. Trump to them may be the lesser of two evils.

There arent many MAGA type Trump supporters on Boards. At least the stereotype hillbilly poorly educated fanatic ones so often mentioned on here.

So if you are asking me do I think the net positive outcome of a Trump presidency would be greater than that of a Harris presidency, at this stage yes I think I do despite all my reservations about him.

ok so you are not one of the posters calling trump senile. There have been some and some of those had a problem when it was being said about Biden. My point is that it’s hypocritical if you do that.

Did my comment when I said I’m not even going to comment on Trump get missed?

I’m not a fan of Trump and wouldn’t vote for him.
There a long long list of stuff you could say about him.

Don’t be so condescending. Can you share the full speech please?

It is true. I see it regularly on here. The normal response is “but trump”

As I said in my last post you obviously aren’t one of those posters

I tend not to listen to Trump so I only have your post of what he said. If he said that then of course he was wrong.

You’ve just made stuff up there.

Dismissing peoples arguments as "but Trump" is massively disingenuous.

Trump is a rapist was the default reply for a long time in this thread. You are even doing it now. My original post was about both sides and all you are replying to me with is what Trump has said and done.

As is your complete editing out of the tactics being used by Trump supporters.

I’m baffled by this comment. My original post was about both supporters.

However you have stated thay you will not acknowledge the fact that Trump has also done this.

You misunderstood or are misrepresenting.

The argument isn't "but Trump does it too

Perhaps I wasn’t clear. It wasn’t but Trump does it too. It’s but Trump is a rapist, facist, racist,criminal.

The argument is that your criticism isn't valid or genuine because you don't and won't acknowledge when Trump does it. Or when Trump does obviously worse.

Don’t tell me I’m not being genuine. You don’t get to decide that.

Why should it matter to you if Biden says people are garbage when you've no issue with Trump actually doing it? Or with Trump accusing foreigners of eating pets. Or Trump calling people "the enemy within". If you have no issue with Trump saying any of this stuff, then you have no issue with Bidens comment. If you do have an issue with that stuff then Bidens comment is a drop in the ocean by comparison

I have no idea where you’ve got these opinions from. It wasn’t from me anyway. I’m actually a little concerned you’ve come to this conclusion.

Odds are given significance due to a phenomenon known as the wisdom of the crowds. Furthermore every participant in the market has to place a real stake and it presumes (almost entirely correctly) that everyone plays to win.

That’s the last “mortal sin” in America as far as I can see - I’ve no doubt someone is going to say it - likely someone more minor in the party - certainly not Trump - but I wouldn’t bet against it happening - that rally last Sunday or Monday or whenever it was pretty much gave “licence” to anyone to say “anything” - that’s what I took from it - very sad-

As a fun bet- At this stage, if it could be proven post election, I’d bet on Melania telling Trump to lose the election no matter what 😀- I’ve seen the “twisted logic” in a lot of things the republicans have done and said throughout this election - but I just can’t see the logic of that rally - nothing will convince me it was “good” for the republican vote.

I did point them in the next post.
what have I edited out of reality.

When I said you are doing it now, I did not mean “Trump is a rapist”.
I mean I criticised both sides of supporters and a lot of what you are replying with is Trump this Trump that.
