Madison Square gardens, hosting racists since ages ago.

As a warmup for former President Trump at his MSG rally, Tucker Carlson, who was terminated by Fox News, calls VP Harris "a Samoan-Malaysian low IQ."

I guess to Replusive party members brown people all look alike or something?

A bunch of trumpets were out flag waving on the I-70 Genesee bridge as I headed home from Moab today. I did my duty and lowered the car window and loudly informed them that trumpet is an asshole.

They're generally smarter, so I hope that means no mango winner in a week from now.
white women still are favoring Trump +4 in the polls

Just cancelled my WP subscription. (Which I have been meaning to do for years).
Left this note as to why.


I cannot abide by Bezos killing journalism, the ever important guardrail, the fourth estate.
This is corruption, and is precisely what happens as countries slide into fascism all over the globe.
Do better.
Please cancel my subscription, with a human response.

Interesting. I too felt like I had some parts but was missing something.
Summary from a member of a different forum. Thanks DonQuixote99.

Why so many want Trump?

It's the question of the decade. How can anyone like this guy? I've had parts understood, but never felt I really had it solid. Until now. Thank you, thank-you, Doug Muder of The Weekly Sift!

The longer form argument is worth reading, but I will give you the quick summary. Trump is popular and may win because he appeals to everyone who does not understand the modern world, and feels like they don't fit in these days. There's been too much change for many people. They maybe aren't doing well, and in any case the world feels wrong to them. Fact is, it's felt wrong ever since they stopped being kids. They think Trump will solve their problems by forcing things to go back to being right--and if he does it violently that's just fine.

If you can’t see any sense in the pro-Trump case, you’re looking at the wrong level. “How can this election be close?” It’s a cry of frustration I hear almost every da…


I don't like it so everybody has to like it my way?
Fuck off and welcome to being alive. Do you think you are the first to feel like this or just maybe it has happened to just about every fucking generation ever?

What give you the right to dictate how everybody else lives? Eat shit and die already.

They would all enjoy a less complex world if someone would just kill the fox news network...

Yes, he seems to be appealing to idiots. Simplistic solutions to non-problems that actually make everything worse. I think we need to have a serious conversation about participation in democracy.
And a serious discussion about longer term investment in education using logic and Philosophy (Philosophy I regard as "how to think" not "What to think")... Well yeah and some humanities beyond self respect.

Brian,I understand you are mad,as we all are. I Hate,which I am guilty of,to say something I regret. What we need todo is,to BreakDown a Topic as Men and Women.

The Topic in this exchange with C calling you a name,is the Genoside. That is ”our topic”!

If it is Right? Or is it the Wrong? And should We Americans Pay/Support it?

Not Trump.

Not Harris.

And Not who is Better for Our Democrocy.

Now. Let me explain to you why I think this exchange on the Topic is a Waste of Time for You.

You Have All that you want. Monies,Bombs,and Most Importantly,the Full Support of USA not matter what.

If Harris Wins,you will still have All that you want. This has been Proven Brother. So that should make this topic very easy to swallow for you.

Even though you do not like the Dems,You Win. Period.

If Trump win’s,you again Win.

Now,with that being said,what do you say Brother on ”this topic” now?

Want to stop the genocide in Gaza? Hamas surrenders and releases all the hostages. It's not rocket science, it's that simple. The fact that they wont surrender and hide amongst the innocent prolongs the war and continues the genocide. Remember, Hamas invaded Israel 10/7/23 and murdered 1200 innocent people, many at a concert, so I assume you condone that? If Hamas never invaded Israel, this discussion would not be happening.

At least you can admit to genocide taking place, that's a start.
But it's like you forget the last, oh I don't know, 50+ years of history in the region.
