Florentine_Pogen Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Trump campaigners have set up a "Voter Fraud Hotline" so that outraged Trumpists can report their sightings of black people setting fire to boxes of uncounted Trump ballots. I wonder how that is going ......?? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/nov/09/trump-voter-hotline-inundated-by-prank-calls 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonS Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 9 hours ago, btb said: The two main political parties in the US are center-right (Democrats) & right wing (Republican) so when Trump came along in 2016 & made a pitch for blue-collar &' left-behind US voters he was tapping into a segment of the population that is largely ignored outside of election day and the run-up. That Trump was never gonna deliver the economic solutions these people needed, was in a way pitiful - as in the UK most people know that the system isn't working for them but get sidetracked a la Moe. PS - Fuck Trump! I'm as save-the-gay-transgender-black-disabled-whale as the next lentil-munching woke libtard, but even I'd say that my perception is the Democrats have given a disproportionate amount of their attention and campaigning to identity issues compared to socio-economics. Hillary gave off the impression that she cared more about wealthy women than the working poor. Maybe it's a product of the vast majority of their campaign donations coming from the rich, I dunno, but it's easy to understand why white rustbelt voters felt neither party cared about them. Trump came along with no pretence, you got what you saw, he wasn't part of the party system and he had no track record to defend. You'd still have to be a moron to regard him as an average Joe, though. No wonder he said "I love the uneducated." It's disturbing that the vast majority stuck with him again. I don't know what Democrats do about that. 5 hours ago, RiG said: When he got a print of "The Republican Club" painting hung up in The White House: There are two living Republican ex-Presidents in that picture, and neither voted for Trump. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was part of the campaign to push voter ID, which is partisan bullshit. In 2018 the commission was disbanded having found nothing at all. All just a little bit of history repeating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's right to say Biden's record has pretty dark areas - though worth bearing in mind that the VP has no power - but he's more than one thing. He whines about "couldn't they wait one day"; couldn't he wait one day, give people their chance to celebrate the toppling of a genuine danger to democracy, before slaughtering Biden? Has he forgotten the Muslim ban? His problem isn't with Biden, his problem is with Americans, and I don't blame him for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grover Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) Bit late to the party here but confusing the 9/11 tragedy with 7 Eleven is a doozy.

killiefan27 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I think my favourite was absolutely mugging off the other Republican primary candidates, most of whom can now be found desperately licking his boots Lindsay Graham: Marco Rubio Jeb Bush And of course the photo of Ted Cruz phone banking for Trump after he'd called his wife ugly and said his dad killed JFK. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 His mugging of the other candidates at the 2016 Republican Primaries was genuinely class. The crowd were booing him as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
