2024 ELECTION THREAD

Ah reading FTW

Was that before or after she called half the population deplorable?

Half the population? Nah, only the few weird maga supporters.\

And it's not as if she was wrong.

Meh, horsenuts is alright. He's not MAGA cult at least.

oh no, project 2025 director stepped down.

gotta hurt chances of dictatorship

Nothing reduces it low enough except Kamala Harris winning.

So, the thing that all the right wingers here reliably informed us was a nothingburger and blown out of all proportion is in fact so extreme that even Trump wants to do with it. And this somehow bolsters your credibility. I see, I see.

FWIW

we can't cherry pick what Trump says to fit the narrative of our pre-established beliefs.

Trump says something the other day about people not needing to vote. - Yes that's proof he will be a dictator.

Trump says project 2025 should dissolve and has nothing to do with him or his campaign. - This time he's lying.

As someone else just pointed out, there are sufficient similarities that there is also an option 3. He is just stealing what they've done and taking credit for it as his own agenda.

The post to which you responded didn't say anything about him lying; read it again.

it was an interesting read. i did a quick comparison to https://rncplatform.donaldjtrump.com/ for what it alleged Trump 47 Agenda is and what it alleges in that comparison chart do not reflect that platform at all. so although it says they are sufficiently similar, they are not based on that document.

Granted it also says sources are 'campaign speeches and policy outlines' but I'm not going to dive that deep right now

This should be seen as a mutual win, rather than constant bickering and infighting.

Maybe. If he has just camouflaged the same agenda under a different name, it's not a win. It just stops people talking about "Project 2025" specifically, while the same stuff takes place out of sight. I don't know if this is the case or not.

"Trump tells it like it is!"

Why would this be a win?

Sorry you're right. It's not a win for people that like project 2025. My apologies to you and your family.

they just realized they had a losing message. it will now be rebranded slightly differently. to give the few non-crazies plausible deniability to vote for the exact same things.

Remember when the Dems realized they had a losing candidate so they rebranded with a different one?

Right. I didn't see a bunch of republicans suddenly say "oh look, that candidate we criticised is gone, they have a different one, so we'll stop with the criticisms now!". Did you?

Another mutual win. Hurrah!

sure. and Harris is attached to the biden administrations record even when biden isn't the candidate because she was part of it. just like Trump/Vance is thoroughly attached to project 2025. Vance literally wrote the forward for the author and they are buddies. Trump takes advice from and gives speeches for the heritage foundation.

About what? I asked a question.

Guessing this is just sarcasm. I'm genuinely asking you why you consider this a win? The only reason it might be is if it reduced the chances that project 2025 would be attempted, but it does nothing of the sort. So why do you think this is a win? I don't think anyone cares about the guy that stepped down.

For what?

I won’t get into why but take beshear +450 as vp and thank me later
