after a million americans dead, and a violent insurrection, the fact this man is the presumptive nominee for the republican party for president of the united states of america AGAIN is so terribly shameful, there are few words to describe just how far we've fallen as a nation, and just how much our light has dimmed
(Because I still think that the U.S. is a great country, with the majority of Americans being great individuals who just want to live in peace and contribute to society. But the spoiled apples have deteriorated the fabric of said society, not to catastrophic levels - that would be Iran and Venezuela - but still significant.)
No: Biden's optimal response may be that, but what his actual response is going to be, given the Dems' coasting on assumed-entitlement, could be anything.
Never count chickens before they're hatched, right?
Scientific Method: wait & see what the actual evidence is.
At the upcoming presidential debate on June 27, Donald Trump plans to highlight a handful of horrific murders—allegedly by undocumented migrants—and blame them on President Biden. We know this because Trump told us so right on his Truth Social feed.
Eh, it's not that original. It's not any more "vile" than anything Trump has said before. It will fade into the background and not move the needle for voters.
I think Trump is going to lose the 2024 election because he's not interesting anymore. His former voters may vote for him, but the "undecided" voter who decides at the last minute will not.
Most of Jon Stewart's debate prowess comes from being extremely intelligent and being intellectually honest and curious about finding the truth behind the rhetoric.
Biden has at most part of the first, is notoriously bad at the second even by the standards of a politician, and is the polar opposite on the third.
On another thread someone was posting about how women in France are swinging hard right because of similar messaging, like it went from 23% to 31% pretty quickly. So unfortunately that's evidence that this might work here and an effective countermeasure should be prepared and tested.
satan. npr had two man on the street things (both were actually women). One said its hard because im biden socially but trump for the economy and another is like well you have to admit the economy was better under trump. It irks me so much that people do not understand how the economy works as far as interest rates. Trump bully pullpitted the fed to zero them before covid after obama had been slowly raising them. He is directly responsible for the inflation and them having to be jacked at a break neck pace.
