[Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

DNC have already had a coup to install Harris unelected in primaries

Such unhelpful (and frankly childish) language.

Not like Trump to lie.... (BBC)

I listened to just a little bit of that press conference and it's just a endless dribble of lies and exaggerations. He is truly pathological with his lies.

RFK still getting 6% despite showing himself to be completely and utterly bonkers is interesting.

Trump is utterly bonkers and he's getting 42%!

 

[Triggaaar]

Such unhelpful (and frankly childish) language.

What else would you expect?

I think Trump is gonna win

I think Trump is gonna win

I think America's going to win.

 

[jcdenton08]

I think America's going to win.

I really hope so!

At least he's consistent...as ever it's lies, exagerration, self inflation and scorn, the usual crowd favourites.

Could be wrong but I think the tide is starting to turn against Trump.

Joe Rogan - who has a pretty huge following - has just come out to endorse RFK jr.

Trump sent out an email yesterday with this t-shirt:

Doesn't do much to offset the "tiny hands" narrative.

Remember folks, he’s definitely not senile.

Definitely.

DNC have already had a coup to install Harris unelected in primaries, maybe have another one at the DNC Congress this month. Although I read an argument that the polls were rigged by adjusting the sampling to convince other Dems that Harris was is the real deal as she has been unpopular in the past.

Yes that is a conspiracy theory but they quite often turn out to be correct these days.

Do they?

Such as?

Such unhelpful (and frankly childish) language.

Don't be stupid, if Biden is unfit to run again he is unfit for office and should resign. This is the compromise removal without an impeachment.

Wuhan labs is first though . Or Bidens unfit for office conspiracy.

So it's not a coup then. It's doesn't help the debate when you use silly and innacurate (and inflamatory) words like that. You don't help yourself.

That's it? Your claim of 'quite often' is TWO not exactly water tight or proven examples?

 

[Bodian]

Don't be stupid, if Biden is unfit to run again he is unfit for office and should resign. This is the compromise removal without an impeachment.

But the you'll moan that Harris has become president without a public vote.

I love reading and learning about major (previous) conspiracy theories that turned out to be true.

Watergate, MKUltra, COINTELPRO, Iran-Contra affair, Tuskegee Syphilis Study, Op Chaos, The Gulf of Tonkin Incident, Op Northwoods, The Doolittle Raid Deception and Op Paperclip. That's 10 examples of major conspiracy theories that were later discovered to be factually true.

I'm currently reading 'CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties'.
A mental book, that touches on a couple of my above examples.

In terms of a current coup with the Democratic Party, the DNC and Biden... Coup is not the right word, imo. However, he was quite clearly ousted by 'higher-ups' once it was quickly determined that he (they) had slim chance of beating Trump in the next election. No matter what side we prefer or lean towards, there should be no wilful denial of that.
