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

The lad above pointed out if you watch the whole clip, it was CFTrump complaining about bending down low to deal with bad mics. I agree, he's not trying 'hawk tuah.'

The whole sequence was absurd, Trump in his element complaining and whining about how bad they are to him, this time his own crew providing bad microphones. Basically 10 minutes of whining. It being a Trump crowd, they ate it up.

But it distracts from the Puerto Ricans are garbage discussion from earlier in the week. Best thing is only 2 more days of this cr@p.

Trump has a crude and a grotesque sense of humour, that’s his thing and it works for him. Mimicking a disabled reporter and his crude comments about Rosei O’Donnell and Megan Kelly come to mind.
Sayings his actions and words are being twisted is either done in bad faith or ignorance.

Trump was on Fox complaining about an advert with Julia Roberts in which she assures woman that they can vote democrat if they wish and that they don't need to tell their husband.

It must really worry them that women can't be bullied into voting for MAGA, that they can't control their independent thoughts.

They are really just trying to shame women into choosing a party they don't want.

FFS - it really is stuff from the dark ages.

If everything Trump does is called outrageous, then nothing he does will be taken as outrageous. This is the crux of the 'flood the zone' strategy as promoted by Steve Bannon and it still works 9 years since Trump came on the scene.

In among this chatter, he's actually said some serious and potentially destructive stuff if he gets back in, which should (imo) be what's discussed on every page of this thread, but we can't do that when people are having a back and forth about a possible simulated sex act.

Stay on the signal, not the noise.

I respectfully disagree.

It's possible to report on all of it.

It's possible to discuss all of it on boards too.

He's a degenerate, and when he behaves like one, it needs to be pointed out.

Notice that not on MAGA fan has tried to defend it. That says it is harmful.

Therefore, broadcast it.

How Trump's presidency started

How it finished.

America had better remember

Various courts & the Mexican government rid US of the "remain in Mexico" policy.

Did Trump aligned Republicans block the cross party border control legislation with the intention of artificially creating a talking point?

As regards the "cost of living crisis", the US has never been wealthier & the economy has literally never been better.

The US faced lower inflation than the rest of the developed world plus in addition far larger economic growth & Trump's proposed policies are intended to create super charged inflation:

“Maslow's hierarchy of needs doesn't work anymore. “

The theory still works if the conditions allow- it’s the conditions that are no longer conducive to self actualisation.

Trump is selling a “dream” to people who have no hope of even getting 1/2 way up Mazlows hierarchy ; the American dream of the 60s is well and truely dead- many young people won’t exceed the wealth of their parents as used to occur and even then the wealth of their parents isn’t what it once was;

Since that’s the reality people will drift towards a dream if it allows them to forget for a while - the Democrats and Harris are a reminder of real world reality- it’s not that they’re lying; it’s just people would prefer not to hear it.

Your right re: Pete. I really hope that doesn't come to pass, to attack like that. I'm an eternal optimist. If he brought in the money like what happened when Biden anointed Harris, it would have been OK.

But would they have lined up alongside him.

Probably not. And that hurts.

The VP taking over the nominee while still within an ongoing administration has been handled perfectly by both the Democrats and the Harris campaign.

There has been no denouncing of Biden policies, not stories that suggested a rift between the 2. No suggestion that she disagreed with him or that he didn't have faith in her. He may have wanted to run, but passed the baton and stood back with extreme dignity.

The conservative media tried to find a rift but got nothing. It was very well done by all involved on the Democrat side because all the time she was in a position where she was being asked how she would improve things and she never dropped Biden in it.

I don't even know what response from the view you are talking about so that will give you some indication of how impactful it was.

You actually believe all of that which is some reach.

Any way you look at it, she's coming across as far more competent than Trump.… She hasn't done 40 minute dance sessions at Town Halls or claimed immigrants are eating dogs. She also has an established political career and isn't be kissing the rings of dictators as Trump appears to.

or calling successive elections as rigged, or tried to lean on election officials to find enough votes for them to win, or to formulate an idea to overcome the process so alternative electoral votes can be counted, or initiated 50+ court cases trying to calling in to question the election, or have had team members charged and convicted for some the acts they carried out on your behalf after you lost the election….

There's a lot that Harris hasn't done that Trump has done.

I'm not getting into this again. Read back to previous comments where this was addressed. This is just going around and around.
