This is getting weirder by the minute

Am I the only one who thinks this is not a flex to be proud of
One thing about getting old is that one can become less likely to hold their tongue. This is what we are seeing with Trump, among other things, now that the turntables and he isn't getting what he wants.

Kiss it as much as you want tRuMp [please]. Butt you're still NOT getting my vote :creep:

You can still keep on kissing it, in trying to convince me though :)
I don't want to be nowhere near him, but you do you.

Right-wing not voting Trump? Impossible!

If the election was a movie, some people might have complained about too many plot twists.

His appeal is to conservatives

Conservatives by definition want to keep the status quo, the old ways, they are uncomfortable with change

Trump is your old racist grandpa - to some that's enough - and they don't care about the rest
I guess I just don't live within that mindset. Conservatives seem so wild these days. I remember when they were against shit like the government interfering in people's lives but Trump is promising more interfering from the government. I don't understand how this became "conservativism"

It's always been this way.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

Conservative politicians are happy to let the uneducated masses believe they're part of an in-group so long as it continues to suit their needs, but the reality is that it's only a privileged few who would ultimately maintain absolute personal freedom at the endgame. They've only become more explicit about their extremism (ala Project 2025) in recent years because they can see that demographics are shifting, and soon electoral victories will be out of their grasp entirely, even when accounting for gerrymandering and the electoral college. It's now or never for their fascist takeover.

Not hard to see what's going on with Trump nowadays. It's been one losing streak after another ever since Kamala took stage and Biden stepping down. Trump is panicking hard. He kept saying Biden was too old and should step down from re-election, but once that happened, the situation completely shifted over his head.

He can't control the narrative anymore and just throwing racist remarks and insults one after another towards Harris.

Even Trump's nephew, Fred Trump III, recently talks about how he wants to support Kamala and even shared how Trump said that people with disabilities should just die to save on expenses, including his nephew's son.

Even tried to make one of his tragically dead MAGA supporters from the attempted assassination be a punch line joke, recently.

He doesn't give a fuck about America or truly anyone, really. He just wants power to control, like any other WEIRD, narcissistic, psychopathic, heartless, tyrannical asshole.

Just you wait till they start showing all the horrible stuff she has say and done over the years.
Sure. I'll be waiting.

Hopefully, they won't be deepfake AI video/audio, photoshopped, or out of context quotes that conservatives/GOP/Elon Musk keep trying to come up with to get some "gotcha" on social media.

It would be real funny if something really does come up on Kamala Harris, but show that what she said or did is nowhere near as bad as what Trump has. Especially since not only has Trump gone on record to be a narcissistic racist, he's also a proven convicted felon with 30+ charges and a whole bunch of other digusting stuff.

If she wants to win the conservative vote she's really gonna be pressed for time committing 91 felonies, multiple rapes, and resurrecting Jeffrey Epstein to become his best pedo pal, all before the election in November.

Personally, I don't give a shit about Biden. He's already served his time in office and on his way out. But I still haven't heard about what Biden's done that's way worse than what Trump has done.

You seem very confident. Care to share to the class one big example of what she's done on record? Again, I'm expecting something truly disgusted.

Of course, with actual news sources, videos, and whatnot. And not some random YouTuber/Rumble/Kick/Tiktok/etc. content creator.

The betting markets agree with you. Age is a huge factor here, as the vast majority of Gen Z will be old enough to vote in this election. They largely do not want people with one foot in the grave representing them, and even if that wasn't an issue, Trump's messaging does not resonate with their experiences.
Not to mention, lots of conservatives and boomers died from COVID thanks to their refusal to adhere to the COVID mandates of social distancing and whatnot... So if Trump didn't have the numbers last time, he definitely won't this time either.

Harris now leads Trump in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania - as well as a 2% lead in national polls

If the election were held today Harris would win 270 EVs and become president

Next thing you know... You will get paid to vote Democrat😂/ vote Republican and save our country.
Paid to vote Republican you mean...Trump insisted his name be put on the COVID relief checks that were issued before the 2020 election. Still couldn't buy himself a win, since he had killed off a bunch of his supporters in Georgia with the anti-vax and anti-mask hysteria.

As if they don't have it in the bag with Walz, anybody would've been a slam dunk after Trump chose a weird couch fucker for VP.

Fuck wearing a mask, fuck the shot witch is the reason for death
I mean, Trump later tried to claim credit for the vaccine, but clearly the damage had already been done since his supporters couldn't reconcile that cognitive dissonance.
