Dems can always pack the court


by ganstaman P

At post-debate rally. Time stamp 1:52

"I don't walk as easy as I used to. I don't speak as smoothly as I used to. I don't deba... debate as easy as I used to. But I know what I do know. I know how to tell the truth."

The post says there are tweets. I don't go on X so idk

He basically signed his own withdrawal by coming out the next day and doubling down on his age being a major factor.


It's after 5pm. We'll resume this chat tomorrow since now it's resting time for the President of the USA.

I just don't see how you can run on "many of my own supporters say I'm unfit for office. And I kind of am. But Trump..."

Well that's good. Wonder why the democrats want there to be obstacles to transferring power.

You missed the "to prevent" part.


by chillrob P

You missed the "to prevent" part.

you missed the "remove" part.

and the 5pm part.


Im old enough to remember this being Russian Maga deep fake propaganda.

example 4325233 that you dont get credit for being right

Come on, man!

I said "there aren't".

I can see how my statement could have been ambiguous, but on the slight chance you misunderstood, it has been explained to you.

Feel free to come back tomorrow, when you're better rested, and discuss the actual issue.

I don't remember that - when was the president declining seen as Russian propaganda?


ofc you dont


Not sure it was Russian propaganda but it was definitely msm propaganda. So hilarious how the story changed over the course of a few days.

To state the obvious, it would take more than a massive boycott to create the conundrum you are imagining. It would take a complete boycott. if only 99.9% of people boycotted, then they would just count the votes as usual.


So if everyone boycotted except Trump, who voted for himself, then he would become president?


Doesn't seem right.

Doesn't seem right.


He would need 1 vote in 31 states


Aren't there colleges in all 50 states though?


oh forgive me, it's an electoral college. I've never voted myself.


there are people ITT that think difficulty of "transfer of power" is a Democrat thing? LOL

IF serious, jfc you're ******ed or non-American or both (small benefit of the doubt given if only one).

The only certainly in the 2024 election is that the voting laws in MAGA-controlled states have been changed to allow voting results to be thrown out if the MAGA controlled state government doesn't like the results. In other words, no one other than TRUMP is winning any of those states (which would include any REAL Republican candidates but I am not aware of any) no matter what the votes are.

#lizcheney2028 one of the few honest American politicians left. and Trump's recent statement she should be executed on public TV only makes this point of view more correct. but this country will probably be destroyed from within by then.


Maybe I will vote this year, I've heard a rumor that it makes you more likely to be chosen for jury duty though. Is that true?

In advance, just tell them u work as an income tax preparer and can't afford to miss a day of work...a good friend of mine told me this works to get u out of duty (unless it's between 10/16 and 12/31 I would assume)

Tell them you hate cops and you feel like the court system is a scam

I just say when I show up that I can tell if a man is guilty by the content of his character.

I think as individuals we should be grateful for our good fortune to be born in the modern US. Even if you make 30k, you have so much that most people have not had. You will never experience something like a famine, or the local war lord raping you wife and daughter and cutting off your hands. It's important to realize that ish has been very real for millions upon millions.

You can simultaneously realize that the common people are quite a b

Again I think your discourse could be applied to many many many countries in the world that these thing isn’t happening …

I just find strange with the best economy in the world with the greatest wealth in the world the US do so poorly towards …. The poor .

Fwiw the premise was if it was great to be poor in the US?
I’m just saying comparing with the comparable , the US would be far below the list to live there if I was poor .


But yes , might as well compare to Africa and say we are lucky to live here to justify the unjustifiable.

I've voted in every local, state, and federal election since 2004 (and worked as a poll worker 3x) and have never been called for jury duty

I'm not saying Africa justifies the US.

I'm saying you can be grateful for what you have as a matter of personal morality. Even if you do live in India.

This does not conflict with recognizing that some stuff is pretty bad and we can improve it.

Also it's not just the poor who get screwed. Many are 1 disaster from ruin. If I broke my arm even, i might be out $9k. That's with $350/mo insurance. You don't have to be poor for that to be a major blow.

Imagine you have put sside 2k a year for JR's college and they just steal 4 anda half years worth cuz you fell down the stairs.
