[Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

[raymondo]

Yep

Not sure why my analysis of that attracted a lot of angry reactions disliking my post and sad faces though - perhaps people disagree with my assessment (or misunderstood it?).

I should have made it clearer that I wasn’t agreeing with Rosanne Barr or the QAnons!

No, it's the other way around! Most posters (me, for sure) use sad or angry emojis to reflect their view of the content that's been posted....not to be negative toward the poster!!!
So, all of those reactions (I'm sure) would have been agreeing with you 100%.

You need to flip how you look at these reactions .
If someone is truly angry at YOU for posting they will reply and say so...in my experience

This is hilarious, the gift that keeps on giving!

The watch expert fraternity aren't impressed. Reckon they're part made in China.....

Trump’s “Vastly Overpriced” $100,000 “Swiss Watch” Is Probably Made in China, Experts Say

The former president's new timepieces are the laughingstock of watch aficionados, who cast doubt on their true origins — "as ersatz as the man himself."

Got it.

I get ‘s also when people are actually angry with what I post so it can be confusing. (Like the laughter emojis often used to laugh at someone instead of with them)

My autism kinda of reacts to the big angry redness of it all

What the hell happened to her?

She's suffering from mental illness. Her ex-husband, Tom Arnold, has said she's struggled with it for a long time. Clearly it's gotten much worse over time.

This probably explains a lot....

What is Going on with Roseanne Barr? - Dr Suzanne Lachmann

What Roseanne has said, done, and what she professes to stand for are appalling, but what must be added to the dialogue is that she did not come to be this way randomly.

Well yes, it can get confusing sometimes .
It's possible that someone agrees with the video posted, but disagrees with the sentence from the poster that prefaces it! Then the emoji response may be confused.
But... for your particular post,where we started this discussion, I'm sure all responders were agreeing with you, even if their emojis were sad or angry .
Have a nice evening .

It's the VP debate between Walz and Vance on Tuesday. Probably won't be such an easy ride for Walz, as although Vance has his moments he will probably be a bit more controlled than Trump.

Walz is allegedly a bit nervous as he has never considered himself to be a strong debater, unless he's just trying to lull Vance into a false sense of security.

Walz comes across as a lot more natural and relatable in his unehearsed public appearances when meeting the people whereas Vance's exchanges with the public have been decidedly awkward.

I think the mics will be hot this time rather than muted.

Jack Smith Wins Pivotal Decision As Trump Case Gains Momentum​

Knewz.com is reporting that Special Counsel Jack Smith has received good news regarding the federal case surrounding former President Donald Trump’s alleged election subversion. Previously, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Trump has immunity from prosecution for official actions taken while in office.

The case "United States of America v. Donald J. Trump" involves federal criminal charges against Trump related to his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election as well as his role in the January 6 Capitol attack. Trump has pleaded not guilty to charges including conspiracy to defraud the United States and obstruction of an official proceeding.

In August 2023, a grand jury indicted Trump in the District of Columbia on four charges. The charges carry a maximum sentence of 20 years. In February 2024, the trial was delayed until the court ruled on Trump's immunity from prosecution. The U.S. Supreme Court acknowledged some immunity for official acts. In August 2024, Smith filed a superseding indictment, which includes some of the same four charges, but removing certain allegations.

@Albion my Albion did you read and understand what you just posted?

The link and text of your post is exactly the same but neither tells us what ”good news” Jack Smith has ”received”!



Edit - Background to the new evidenced filed under seal by Smith on Thursday here :

Jack Smith Has Filed New Evidence In Trump’s Federal Election Case—Here’s Why It’s Still Not Public

Trump’s lawyers already slammed the filing as a “180-page false hit piece” even before it was filed.

www.forbes.com

But no outcome to that filing I can see anywhere?

Has it even been made public?

 

[Albion my Albion]

@Albion my Albion did you read and understand what you just posted?

Just a confirmation from another source that Jack Smith had won a filing in the case. Smith has decided against releasing the evidence to the public.


This is the original win reported

Jack Smith Scores Another Win in Trump’s January 6 Case

Donald Trump’s latest attempt to delay the case has been denied.

Jack Smith Scores Another Win in Trump’s January 6 Case​

Donald Trump’s latest attempt to delay the case has been denied.​

Judge Tanya Chutkan is blowing past Donald Trump’s efforts to waylay his January 6 trial schedule, deciding on Tuesday that special counsel Jack Smith will be allowed to move forward with a proposal to submit a 180-page brief of evidence related to the case.

This was a win since Smith was facing another delay, That is the way Trump wins legal decisions

Ah ok, clear now, so the “decision” you were referring to was the decision made last week that Smith could submit the filing of further evidence to amended charges that might be excluded from the immunity decision made by SCOTUS .

Sorry your post didn’t link to what the “win” or ‘decision’ was so it was a little confusing what you were referring to.

Thanks for posting - it is indeed good news in terms of Smith proceeding with the case.

No doubt Trump will contest and appeal it like he has all the others though.

Be interesting to hear what the ‘new evidence is’.

That's what Trump said. (My new joke wording)

Shady Vance has been telling porky pies saying it was Trump who lowered the price of insulin for diabetics. In fact it was Biden who implemented the change.

He's just repeating Trump's lies of a month ago....

Trump now advocating police violence to solve crimes such as shoplifting.

He no doubt doesn't have the same attitude to those like himself who rip people off in other ways when he fails to pay people for services rendered. They're the ones who deserve the kicking...
