U.S. Politics, November 2024: GARBAGE DAY!!

just here to say that this is the first time i’ve seen Maya Rudolph’s Harris and the voice is UNCANNY. just extremely high level stuff

Also how has Maya Rudolph basically not aged in 25 years

in 2016. he had a good last week and his rallies were pretty rowdy. iirc he was even able to get like, Kid Rock. where the fuck is Kid Rock right now?

Kid Rock endorsed Donald Trump in a Rolling Stone interview in May, performed at the RNC in July, and appeared at multiple Trump rallies in August.

But what has he done for Don lately?

He had a busy schedule of singing sweet home Alabama all summer long iirc

Tomorrow!

“She announced it on Oct. 14.”

I follow politics fairly closely and totally missed that this happened

On top of everything else there has GOT to be a better way to make the average American aware of stuff like this

Maybe - just brainstorming here - you could deliver a stack of papers each day to each household.

The most important things could be on the top page, with more detail on subsequent pages for those who were interested.

Just a thought.

That’s so crazy it just might work

lol fair play this is a good burn

"Hopefully, we get rid of @LeaderMcConnell pretty soon... Can you believe he endorsed me? Boy, that must have been a painful day in his life... what a disgrace." — #Trump #KYSen pic.twitter.com/DBdPK2WT7X

I cannot love that enuf

He’s running next time there’s an opening

This is an incredible article about Mayor Pete, Tim Wu, flying, government, how ideas change lives.

Seriously: put aside 20 minutes, get a cup of coffee, and learn about the antitrust revolution in action. https://t.co/5gU1ySbvbC

While the reasons behind it are unfortunate, the American populace will never vote in Pete Buttigieg. In some ways, homophobia can work to our advantage.

the extent to which trump and attendent cronies are all turning upon one another is giving me hope.

lol why am I seeing people like David Simon posting that WE NEED TO HEAR FROM GEORGE W BUSH. No we don't, we never need to hear from him again about anything.

W. apparently told Bill Clinton that Colin Allred was "great."

also his daughter Barbara endorsed Harris

NotJenna

Perfectly fine with W drawing a veil over the rest of his life.

Mayor Pete can go fuck himself until he starts fighting for Medicare for All. He’s the worst kind of pseudo-left hawk

(context: Ryan Fournier sent an email to himself containing new poll numbers for Trump that are different than the more favorable ones that Harris had recently, and blacked out the name of who sent but not well enough so you could see he sent it to himself, then deleted the tweet)

who’s ryan fournier

MAGA asshole, Students for Trump co-founder, who pistol whipped a woman last year.

a more violent Jacob Wohl

mayor pete article is an inspiring testament to the power of bullying

You know, here's the thing I fundamentally don't get. I can kind of put myself in the mindset of somebody who likes Trump, thinks he's funny and likes the way he pisses people off. But what I don't get is the people who are neutral or even negative on Trump but see a Kamala Harris presidency as a catastrophe that has to be avoided at any cost. How does that even mentally work?

Fournier's numbers make zero sense anyway, if Trump only wins Iowa by 3 he is not winning PA lol

xpost they are very concerned about women's sports

otm.

XXP Girls' sports. In the ads it's always men in girls locker rooms, never men in women's locker rooms. But if men in girls locker rooms is such a motivational trigger for them, why aren't they rejecting Trump for crashing the miss teen USA dressing room?

Because that's a normal thing men are supposed to want to do

the reason someone who doesn't care about Trump/etc but still thinks Kamala would be a disaster = that even outside of the MAGAsphere, received wisdom tends to be inherently racist and misogynist

just like how anybody rants about how "music used to be better years ago" and cite examples of how it has declined and every example they give is of new music made by a Black musician

"well I don't like Trump but I don't think we should allow boys in the girl's locker room, also we can't have emotional people in the White House amirite"

they never think about it from the other side like they're all so pissed off about those ads telling women you don't have to vote Trump because your husband does and what a fundamental betrayal that would be but if you asked them about a guy in a Dem household secretly voting Trump they'd be all "hell yeah, what a hero"

its not even about being a hypocrite it's just not a scenario they ever consider

lot of people are going to vote red no matter what hate dems etc, not that there arent reasons but basic fact is we live in an era of polarization

I did lol when Jesse Waters was shouting with rage on Fox News about how his wife secretly voting for Harris would be like having an affair and Judge Jeannine asked him, "Why would she think she needed to hide it from you?"

'pollslop' is good

really cool band

I’d assume George W Bush could not be reached for comment as he was out cleaning brush up on his land. As every time he would go back to his ranch in Texas that’s always what they showed him doing.

At last he's found a task equal to his talents.

Quite sure he spends his days painting and reading Camus.

CLEARING. the canonical phrase is CLEARING brush. with $110 blond calf's leather gloves.

nothin like sweeping some brush fellas am i right

cleaning brush is just dipping it in a cup of water iirc

Well Rand Paul was mowing the yard when his next door neighbor attacked him.

Didn't Trump have a quote during his time in office about clearing brush after massive fires out west?

man that pete article is great. i know he's easy to make fun of, but he's really used his office to make big changes

xpost yes, he wanted to rake the forests
