Election 2024 Foreplay

  1. Joe Biden is being scapegoated and demonized bigtime by dems.

    Just for giggles, think back to when Joe was ousted and the dems had massive, massive number of signs printed that said "We Love Joe" so that they could wave them while chanting the same thing every time he showed up.

    Heh, I guess the bloom is off that rose . It is more like "Fuck You Joe." I guess love is like that.

  2. "Unburdened by the past"? Sounds straight out of the Communist Manifesto. Consistent with tearing down statues and revisionist history, perhaps? Recently saw a cartoon program on Fox while at a truck stop that depicted Rome with thematic social positions of modern Radical Leftists, including indirect transgenderism themes. Even YouTube music, such as (Shaft), (Only Girl in the World), and YouTube Comedy (Trump versus Hillary Rap Battle) had the audio changed to either support homosexuality or to remove "uncomplimentary" humor.

    I wonder how many non Far Left parents fear what their children watch and what happens in the classroom? How much of this fear was a factor in 2024? Married voters were +13 Red, for example.

    JD Vance will win 2028

    Out of the 4 people on the ticket, the only one to go into the election with a positive favorability rating in CNN exit polls was.... JD Vance.
    Trump: 46/53(-7),
    Harris: 47/52(-5),
    Walz: 45/47(-2),
    Vance: 47/46(+1).

  4. To be fair, Kamala wasted Trump in the debate, like she done previously against members of Congress. Kamala also beat Pence in their 2020 debate, in my opinion. Debating skill can be considered a form of "cerebel" fitness, an important Presidential quality to many, I would think.

    Immediately after the Kamala-Trump debate, it seemed to me that Kamala had established two things: She appeared to possess leadership qualities while also bringing Trump's leadership skills into question. In fact, Kamala could have gone further into the "Dark arts", after reminding everyone she was a prosecutor and that Trump had better be careful to maintain moral authority, and really got Trump into trouble. A few tie-ins, an offer of some of her time to Trump, and a strong close that becomes a political ad might have been enough to end Trump. Especially if Kamala would directly answer some key moderator questions. Imagine a Harris political ad asking which candidate would you have representing US when dealing with foreign powers, tying in negative foreign opinion during Trump's first term, and showing key moments of her debate?

    In my view, media appearances are more about focusing on undecideds than throwing more political porn to people who are going to vote for you anyway, like Trump did. In other words, Kamala may of had a real opportunity to be President.

    I've seen Trump successfully handle reporter leading questions and efforts to get him worked up before, but Kamala got to him in the debate. As other's have said, time was not on Harris's side, but not just on tests of ideology, but in time for planning, in depth strategy, branding, etc., the same challenges as any other candidate would have had in her circumstances.

  6. Just doing a quick "I toldja so" here.

    You may remember that wayyyyy back I said the Biden clowns would take a shot at installing Kamala when Biden was on the way out if he were defeated.

    These clowns are predictable. Not gonna happen of course but reality does not really come into the picture for them.

  8. former Harris staffer.... in other words someone with no power to do anything except look for interviews to stay relevant. Same as if a former trump staffer comes out and says something...

  9. Correct at this late stage.

    Otherwise, people with no power plus people with power are always up for a plan to give Kamala more power without her having to do anything to get it- as we clearly saw in this election cycle and the one before.

  10. She was technically president for 1.5 hours but not in a real official capacity. No one is going to convince Biden to step down to give her 4 weeks of presidency. If I were Biden I would tell them all to go fuck themselves. He has 2 months left, I do not see him doing anything to help a person who lost.

    Biden's choice got him the win in 2020. Sometimes we make short-term decision to reach immediate results and ignore the long term consequences. Dems are getting swept out and time to reset. Trump will put the nail in the coffin for the GOP this term as well so we all get new parties!!! JD Vance cannot carry GOP in 2028. Trump will not make it to 2028 in his ealry 80s unless he does a reagan and is barely awake.

    I can live with trump for 4 years if it means we all get a do over in 2028.
