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

[US Seagull]

VP debate was refreshingly boring. No real fireworks. It was almost like a regular political debate.

Vance managed to not look like a total asshole and probably edged it on that. But it was pretty much a tie. Not that it matters. Nobody will be talking about it in a week. Or even in a couple of days.

Meanwhile:

Trump oddly claims during Montana rally no one knows Kamala Harris’s last name

Former president Donald Trump continues trying out new attack lines on Kamala Harris as she surges in polls

www.independent.co.uk

“Kamala Harris. You know it’s interesting nobody really knows her last name,” he said.

Erm...you just said it grandpa.

Has she gone off the reservation?



There were some mutterings of "pro-life" people being a bit pissed off with Trump, especially when he seemed undecided on how he'd vote for the abortion issue (issue 4) on the Florida ballot this year. He said he thought six weeks (the current ban) was too harsh. He later said he'd vote NO on issue 4, which is to say against restoring abortion rights in Florida. I doubt they're going to be too happy with his wife being seemingly uncompromisingly pro-choice.

She's a massive c*nt. Her choice to wear a sweater with "I really don't care, do u?" at a Child Migrant detention center really showed who she is and thumping out a book pre-election really suggests she doesn't want to be First Lady again. It must be really angering the Trump campaign, hopefully it proves to be another nail in the coffin.

I doubt what Melania thinks matters much to Trump given the two (according to a lot of people) don’t live together and haven’t for some time

Read this thread. It's mind-boggling.

Read this thread. It's mind-boggling.

I've not read it, but I can guarantee it won't change the minds/votes of many/any Trump supporters.

Read this thread. It's mind-boggling.

And yet he's not in prison, and they're allowing him to run again

Read this thread. It's mind-boggling.

If anyone is interested in reading Jack Smith’s evidential filing submitted in September, it is actually shocking.

It’s very long so I’m skipping in and out and speed reading but even that reveals what a truly nasty piece of work Trump is. This filing completely provides grounds that he should be defenestrated and never should have been allowed to stand in any election for public official again.

Section one outlines the evidence so there’s no need to read 165 pages!

Immunity my a*se.

I thought the Jan 6 hearings did a good job of establishing that there had been no electoral fraud and that Trump was continually made aware of this.
The Jack Smith filing just drives this all home. Trump should be in prison not the campaign trial.

 

[Bodian]

Ah - but as President he had immunity for doing all of this.......

It is getting to the point that even any krompromat Putin has on him won't be bad enough.

Maybe at that point he can cast Putin aside and no longer do everything possible to keep the goblin sweet.

Just read that thread and yeah, I'm sticking to my original conclusion. The MAGA cultists will argue that the radical left elite wokerati with TDS and the fake news media are against them and that their guy is the only hope of saving America. Or some such bullshit.

It is all so unbelievably mental that such a lying twat has such a hold over so many. A really REALLY odd guy.

I get the MAGA cultists, you will always get these people in any country. But we're talking about 47% that intend to vote for him.

Like many I still don't get it....

Looks like spin and heresay, a final attempt to smear Trump even as independents seem to be declaring for trump 2 to 1.

That is because you are consuming BS, I get it.

Have you actually read it? Read some of the actions he and his campaign took. It's all documented in texts / emails / phonecalls / witness statements (from republicans) - not hearsay at all.
