Every time he says something even remotely borderline that his people try to defend, he immediately follows it up with something worse or more direct.

They just got done trying to say that he wasn't directly implying that Liz Cheney should be shot. And this dude just directly states that he's down with the press being shot. At his own rally, no less. And in a way that would actually put him at risk.

There's nothing sane or reasonable about that. I mean, damn. If every reporter in that pool isn't forcing that story through, I don't know what the hell is wrong with them.

I'm supposed to be LURKIN', DAMMIT!

But I had to come out of lurking status to cosign this.

@Helico-pterFunk is definitely NOT one of the idiots. In my year or so of lurking/commenting here, I have NEVER known him to be suspect.

Now Please, gentlemen...no more UNNECESSARY drama. I am using this thread so that I don't have to log into twitter, and still get updated. I ain't supposed to be posting comments! (self imposed sabbatical)

Cheers.

respect family.

We appreciate you doing that, truly

It will not go any further. Its done.

But WE cannot let family members especially THAT man be unjustly called out in any way shape of form.

At least not while I'm still here.

This is the most dangerous man to come across American politics. So much has gone wrong since 2016 with him but even worse since the last 4 years. Either he doesn't give a shit because he's NEVER held accountable for anything by the judicial branch and DOJ or he knows he will lose the election but will do and say whatever he wants since he will be in jail at some point in time. Either way, we can't have this again or a Trump-like politician in the future....

I'm need to rewatch this a rew times to understand it properly.

All you need to understand is if you are a business owner and you want to import a specific product from oversees that has a tarif on it, YOU pay the tariff in order to receive the product when it arrives at the port via US Customs and the unit price of whatever it is. Then once you get it, in order to make a profit for your business you will then have to raise the price to account for the a tariff you already paid out of your pocket plus the unit price of the product itself. That is what your customers will pay.

[praetor]

How is this not a major story?

Media treating 45 with kid gloves

Different scenario but same point.



I don’t think there is anyone in America - Republican, Democrat, independent; journalist, non-journalist - who can deny the fact that if Biden or Harris had simulated oral sex on a microphone at a rally on the eve of the election, there would be wall to wall coverage of it on cable, the front page of every paper in the land, and 24/7 demands for them to quit the race.

The debate over media bias and the pass that Trump gets, the total normalization of his abnormal behavior, is over, dead, done, finished. It’s indisputable at this point.

POLITICAL POST OF THE MONTH

EXPLAINING THE TARIFFS!!!!​

 

[4 Dimensional]

@4 Dimensional @BlackGoku - a few observations I noticed in NC driving from Charlotte up to DC this morning....Bro she spent a shit load of money in NC...Driving on I-85 I've never seen a democrat candidate have so many billboards off the interstate and I know I counted atleast 6 between Concord and Raleigh.....Got off in Greensboro near South Elm street and all I saw was Harris/Watlz signs on the roads and people yards.....

I even seen signs outside of Raleigh closer to the VA line that said Patriots for Kamala (never seen that before) on the side of the road....

I've driven down I-85 to I-77 for several elections (going back to the 2nd Bush days) and I've never seen this many billboards and signs for a democratic candidate EVER....

Yeah, you definitely going to see Harris-Waltz signs off South Elm. Lol.

I’m in a rather conservative area in HP, but I mostly see Harris-Waltz signs in my neighborhood.

Got a few Trump-Vance neighbors. Lol. Older Christian white folks. In my home town, I didn’t see much Trump signs which is crazy because they are wildly conservative down there.

 

[ghoststrike]

Are you saying I was wrong about something? I know who H-Funk is.

My bad. Please disregard my post.

[sammyjax]

That’s not what I was referring to at all.

I was calling the board cultish because of the way only good news and positive vibes re: Kamala are welcome, as evidenced by the attack on H-Funk.

I used to get called MAGA on a daily basis for saying Biden couldn’t win and Kamala should be the candidate.

You, friend, were the one on some bullshit with that totally wrongheaded response based on assumptions from other conversations. Just because I have engaged with Big Tex on Gaza too often doesn’t mean it’s the only thing I care about.

what bad news and negative vibes about Kamala should be welcome here on this black message board where there is a near-total consensus that her election is the singular most important issue currently at hand? And in light of said strong support, what makes it cultish? If a bunch of people are all supporting a thing that is objectively the right thing, what makes that a cult?

Other than gaza, what other Kamala issues do you care about?

Same! If the signage thing could be used as an indicator then it suggest 1 or two things

1) Trumps in trouble. I’m not seeing close to amount of Trump signage in my red state like previous years. Hell! A case can be made i’ve seen as much or even slightly more Harris/Walz ones.

2) They’re still voting for Trump(likely). But are kinda ashamed to put his crap out there and let everyone know you’re voting for that guy? Yikes!

We’ll see if there’s any correlation soon!

I don't know how much celebrity political endorsement help.

But if they can make people go into debt buying merch and tickets? Make them stand on line overnight for McDonald meals? Make their fans dox innocent people?

Yeah the endorsement DOES mean something.

And it would be real nice to see Kendrick Lamar pop out on this.

Not even to endorse (which he should but okay)

Tell your fans to pop out and vote.

Cause trust his fans ain't gonna BENEFIT if that man gets in office.

also?

the police mentioned how much they love K Dot on law & order this week

Wtf is going on in American politics?

This whole thing is a complete clown show

And our lives are at stake.

this is muthafuking insanity

They realized they opened the floodgates too much amd want to try to close them but like kamala said we can't go back.

In truth America gave people too much leverage by allowing access to education they couldn't stop porn from booming and couldn't stop people from just sex to sex for free. They opened up the gate with the free market but not all money is good money amd know they see that.

They trying to put groups in their place they fret over China and how China got tons of poor staying In their lane.
