dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Longtime GOP Pollster: Trump’s Campaign Is Over After DebateEnglish4·8 months agoExcept Trump’s famous “They’re eating cats and dogs” line came from JD Vance. The craziest part of the debate wasn’t even Trump’s to fully own. JD Vance quite possibly is worse than Trump in regards to likability.
So if Trump drops out, who the fuck in the Republican field replaces him? Ron Desantis?
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•[USA] Presidential Debate Mega ThreadEnglish3·8 months agoThat Abdul situation completely surprised me. I can’t believe how bad a flub that was.
That’s what I’ll be meming moving forward. Not only did Trump admit to working with the Taliban, he made up fake people while doing so.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•[USA] Presidential Debate Mega ThreadEnglish5·8 months agoThis needs to get memed and shared everyfucking where.
This is it people. We need to meme this debate. Otherwise, the fucking Republicans will forget this shit.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•How fentanyl deaths are causing some grieving parents to embrace TrumpEnglish1·8 months agoThank fucking God that Kamala knew she had to be the first person to bring up Fentanyl in the debate. It was a bit round-about, but she got there and made sure to make the first strike early.
Its not quite a policy platform, but it counts. She’s recognized the importance of appearances on this very, very important matter.
Whether you agree with me or not, I think I can trust Kamala on it. I figured I should get back to you after I saw that moment in the debate early.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•How fentanyl deaths are causing some grieving parents to embrace TrumpEnglish11·8 months agoThat’s not even a program and it certainly isn’t a link to the DNC platform either.
We don’t need catchy names.
Yes you do. This is fucking politics. Which is 99% about appearances. If you don’t look like you’re doing something, the sheep don’t notice.
You have the fucking stupid mindset that loses elections.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•How fentanyl deaths are causing some grieving parents to embrace TrumpEnglish22·8 months agoMorally, ethically, and pragmatically, it’s the right call to move to an actual solution.
Cool. Name the DNC’s solution.
I promise you its not as well named as “War on Drugs”.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•How fentanyl deaths are causing some grieving parents to embrace TrumpEnglish22·8 months agoThe article points out that not a single fentanyl speaker was at the DNC.
So there currently is an appearance where it looks like Democrats don’t care.
Saying that you’re against the war on drugs in a decade where Fentanyl/ illegal drugs is the #2 killer after COVID-19 is a bad strategy that’s all I’m pointing out.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•How fentanyl deaths are causing some grieving parents to embrace TrumpEnglish21·8 months agoThe war on drugs only wasted shit loads of money to fuel the prison labor industry.
Sounds like we need to do it better.
For all the gun deaths liberals like to talk about, these newer drugs are more dangerous and are the #2 killer after COVID-19 (and now that vaccination is widespread, Fentanyl is probably #1 now).
This can very well become a Democrat / Liberal weakness if y’all let it faster. Some kind of acknowledgement or even policy to address this large scale killer of Americans is needed.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises EyebrowsEnglish4·9 months agoStill, in this post do we know we’re looking at the right side of his big fat head? Photos are easily mirrored.
Photos are easily mirrored but Trump’s hairstyle is reliably Trump’s right to Trump’s left. So this alleged photograph is definitely of Trump’s right ear.
With the AP seeming to withdraw this photograph, there’s some controversy at play here. But AP is a well respected news brand. Surely they’d write about a story if they found something here.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises EyebrowsEnglish2·9 months agoYes, but the difference is that when showing said irrefutable evidence in a group setting, the neutral parties who are listening into the discussion can see who is a dumbass.
Its not about convincing the Trump supporter. In many cases, its about convincing the low-information undecided voters who are sitting around or just casually listening in.
We aren’t there quite yet. I’d like to see more evidence than just one picture that’s been seemingly withdrawn by the AP. If Trump’s ear truly is healed up by now, we’ll get more pictures soon.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises EyebrowsEnglish12·9 months agoThe footage has Trump grab his ear midspeech, look around and get down immediately.
Something hit Trump’s ear. Its so weird that the Trump team thought it’d be best to pretend it was a bullet this whole time, surely they would have seen the wound and would have known?
Any doctor who saw the ear afterwards would have been able to say Bullet vs Glass vs whatever based on what they saw. If this whole “bullet to the ear” thing ends up being a massive lie created by Trump’s team, that speaks poorly of this upcomming election. Especially if it becomes representative of Trump’s lying and how much he makes his followers look like a fool.
If it ends up to be a true bullet-to-the-ear scenario, then whatever. Kamala looks like she was on her way to gaining momentum for the near future anyway and she has much better chances than I ever expected. (She’s not winning in the polls yet, but her energy is palpable. I can believe that she can turn this around between now and November, even without relying upon this weird ear thing going on…)
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises EyebrowsEnglish9·9 months agoAll the Trump supporters I know call themselves “Moderates” and are “only asking questions”.
They’re already too embarrassed to call themselves Republican.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises EyebrowsEnglish14·9 months agoOh no. This matters to his base because we can embarrass them with this picture moving forward.
They truly believe that Trump was hit by the bullet, and is missing a piece of his ear because of it.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises EyebrowsEnglish24·9 months agoFBI Chief Wray was very careful saying that “Bullet or Shrapnel that Hit Trump’s Ear”, leaving things ambiguous. It set off some discussion online last week, with people wondering why he didn’t just say “The bullet that hit Trump’s Ear”.
I guess FBI Chief knew something was up already and was already hedging his bets. Well, I’d expect intelligence to… well… know things before everyone else.
Obviously Trump was bleeding from his ear. Something absolutely hit it. But if its healed this well by now, it probably wasn’t an AR-15 round.
Very interesting. I don’t think Trump can just leave that thing bandaged up for the next few months, everyone knows he’s gotta take the bandage off permanently eventually. The truth will come out.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump mocks Kamala Harris' name but her campaign is putting it front and centerEnglish3·9 months agoThey can say Barrack Hussain Obama again while they’re at it. For all the good that ever did for them.
It just proves them to be the racist party if they can’t even say a name right
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump mocks Kamala Harris' name but her campaign is putting it front and centerEnglish3·9 months agoKamala seems to be going with ‘weird’.
Which is… actually really good. It’s one word that works with Trump, JD Vance, Crypto ros, Elon Musk, and the whole slew of supporters / Trumps base.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump mocks Kamala Harris' name but her campaign is putting it front and centerEnglish151·9 months agoI’m so fucking confused. Trump usually has good insults that actually stick. But literally nothing is sticking. All of Trump’s insults vs Kamala though are so lame.
I’m pretty happy about this though. Trump workshopping insults and shot gunning his incompetence and inability to actually pull Kamala down is great for everyone.
“Lying Ted Cruz” worked fine. Except “Lying Kamala” is obviously just recycling an old insult and speaks more to Trump’s limited vocabulary rather than something good. Etc. etc. etc. I’m sure Trump will eventually find something and run with it, but… crazy to see him fail at workshopping a response when he’s literally had years to prepare an obvious insult for Kamala.
Making fun of name pronunciation makes it sound like Trump is a 78 year old who can’t learn how to say a name. This is NOT the path Trump wants to go. Kamala isn’t even an exotic or difficult to say name.
dragontamer@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•GOP threatened to sue over November ballot if Biden dropped out. Experts call that 'ridiculous'English2·9 months agoStep 1 of the plan is to at least make people aware of the plan.
There’s more options available than expanding the court or whatever. Ultimately, the reigns of power largely rest in Congress and the President. Supreme Court is the moral center, they’re only effective if people believe their judgements to be moral and just. Otherwise, their statements are just fancy words on a piece of obscure paper.
Supreme Court has no ability to write laws or enforce them.
Abe Lincoln famously warned us about how people make up shit on the Internet.
