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

[Chicken Run]

Of equal importance - what's the sleep/awake strategy of those wanting to follow it closely?

I will probably go to bed about 10pm GMT (5pm ET, 4pm CT, 2pm PT) & wake Wednesday morning 6am GMT

I will be at work which is a shame. Would like to watch it.

I am sure this is the kind of thing sick leave was made for

Or bans you again and solves the issue for good.

Heaven forbids he disagree with you

 

[pb21]

I'm expecting Trump to win, either by winning or by losing due to FRAUD.

 

[BadFish]

He has a point. Who remembers five time Oscar winning movies (including best picture, best actor and best actress in a leading role)?

No one remembers iconic movies seen by half the world better Donald J Trump.

"“When I say insane asylums, and then I say, Doctor Hannibal Lecter, does anybody know? They go crazy. They say, oh, he brings up these names out of— Well, that's genius. Right. Doctor Hannibal Lecter. There's nobody worse than him. Silence of the Lambs. Who the hell else would even remember that? I have a great memory, but they always hit me. I don't bring it up too much because they have to take such a— he brought up Hannibal Lecter. What does that have to do with this? What is it? It has everything to do with it, right? He was… So I've done something for you for you that I haven't done in 20 speeches. I brought up Doctor Hannibal Lecter and we're allowing him, you watch, you watch these fake people will say again, he brought up Hannibal Lecter has absolutely nothing to do. You know I do the weave, right? The weave. It's genius. You bring up Hannibal Lecter, you mention insane asylum. Hannibal Lecter. You go out, no. There'll be a time in life where the weave won't finish properly at the bottom and then we can talk. But right now it's pure genius. Hey, I have an uncle, my uncle, Uncle John, my father's brother, 41 years at MIT, longest serving professor has so many degrees, he didn't know what the hell to do with them all in the most complicated. I understand a lot of this stuff, you know, I believe in that. Like, I mean, Jack Nicklaus is not gonna produce a bad golfer. Right. You know, that's the way it works. It's just one of those things and it's in the family and it's whatever”

When you see the transcripts of his rambling drivel, it genuinely beggars belief that this guy is 1 step away from the White House.

Quite apart from the utter made-up bollocks he endlessly spouts, it has also become increasingly noticeable that he can barely actually finish a sentence any more. He'll start saying something, then literally interrupt himself before his sentence is even fully formed, as he veers off on some other random tangent. He has some kind of neurological attention deficit disorder, he just blurts out whatever thought crosses through whatever lights up within that soggy suet pudding of a brain he's been left with.

The only "weave" he's got is that ridiculous flaccid mop of shredded wheat he still has clinging on to his increasingly exposed cranium.

And all without the aid of a telepromoter

Trump will win, only because I have bet on Harris.

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

Not sure why anybody would bet against Trump.

If we're about to witness the end of the western world and American democracy, you may as well make some money on it.

Nothing like some extra cake money to ease the pain.

Absolutely no issue with him disagreeing with me, if he were to.
No problem at all with his bizarre theories.

It’s his trolling in object to.

He has made zero contribution to this thread except to accuse people who disagree with him of making the thread toxic.


Thanks and good evening to you.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Trump will win

 

[Zeberdi]

that's a fair point i arrived in NYC on election night when those dangler things were at dispute, stayed the week, came home and still no winner

The electoral college votes also still need to be counted which they won’t be until the electors have voted on 17th December - so November 5th or shortly thereafter will only produce a President elect, it won’t be a formal win until the electoral college votes have been tallied on January 6 (electors since a SCOTUS ruling in 2020 have to vote for the party that the State votes for but I’m expecting Trump to challenge ruling that in States that the Republicans lose so he can manipulate the electoral college votes.) We will also have to wait for any court cases to decide on the merit of any legal suits Trump initiates to stop states tallying up their counts as he did in 2020.

In Penn mail in ballots aren’t counted until the next day so it is very possible Trump will have an initial lead on election night.

 

[Zeberdi]

He has never once responded to my posts. Under his current user name anyway.

I think fruitnveg thought you were referring to me

Of course I have often responded to your posts as you have mine

I’m utterly confused

‘All I want is a good mic’ -

Trumps performs air oral sex on the mic stand, says ‘damn’, ‘cr*p’ and ‘a*rse’, rips mic off podium and asks audience if they want to see him ‘knock the hell out of people backstage’




So much rage and anger - he drags the whole democratic process of electing the next POTUS into the gutter - November 5 will not be the end of the process to decide who will regain the White House, it will go on until the electoral votes are cast on 17 December and certified on January 6. In the meantime, Trump‘s sole aim is to disrupt and interfere with the process like a far worse adult version of a child who acts out in class because he is bored, has learning difficulties and is bedded in to attention-seeking, histrionic behaviour. The more Harris looks like winning, the worse his behaviour will become.

How ever did this deeply, deeply flawed character become the favourite for 50% of America to have as their President?

It’s unreal.

I learned so much about his policies from that.... The cult of the "personality" on steroids.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Harris to win. Between 10-15 shot dead in the subsequent violence.

 

[Triggaaar]

Harris to win. Spread bet of 10-15 shot dead in the subsequent violence.

If 10-15 is the spread, have you gone over or under?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Maybe I don’t understand what spread betting means then. I’ll edit my post

I'm not sure that's necessary

8 years old but still relevant.

Thanks! First time I've seen that

Sleep & hope for the best. Save the euphoria or despair until you wake up. Feeling despair on no sleep makes it worse, relief works out fine.
