Of course he would say that. Especially considering TFG's plan is to just give Ukraine to Putin.

 

[Wargames]

Yeah his plan is to give Russia the go ahead to kill everyone in the Ukraine by ending US funding of Ukraine.

Man the Trumpers are out and about in NY well Long Island.

I was driving to Queens and you should see how many doofies are out with their Trump stuff and the flags on the back of their pick up truck.

Journalism on the whole is broken.. certain polling only gets reported.. republicans blatantly lie without any simple follow up questions (for example that whole abortion after birth BS)

But these dudes are invested in the whole theatrics of this whole thing and their own personal gain

And when everything burns down, they’ll write think pieces like we ain’t got numerous examples from history

They'll write from outside the US.

Or on from inside some political jail.

Wow if only somehow we could create some type of super majority like this here for team blue.

[superblytrife]

Yikes.

The problem is that those wealthy donors will be just fine no matter the outcome of the election. Hell, they’re probably better off financially if Trump wins, which gives them more irrational confidence in being the kingmakers.

Whatever the case, this isn’t a great situation to be in this close to the election.

Actual title of the article should be 'Megadonor wants Kamala Harris to be the nominee, pausing donations until then".

From the article:

"Disney pointed to Vice President Kamala Harris as a solid alternative to Biden, arguing she’d be able to defeat Trump.

“We have an excellent Vice President. If Democrats would tolerate any of her perceived shortcomings even one tenth as much as they have tolerated Biden’s (and let’s not kid ourselves about where race and gender figure in that inequity) and if Democrats can find a way to stop quibbling and rally around her, we can win this election by a lot,” Disney said."

Add suspected pedophile to the list.

Imagine taking your political cues from a Disney Heiress, instead of the Democratic Governors.

Only in America would this be treated as if it mattered.

So happy the Torries got washed

Labor being out of power when inflation hit was a godsend for them.

So many left wing parties are screwed because of they got caught holding the bag.

Inflation finally made enough people snap out of it.

Anywhere else, her statement would have been proof of political cluelessness.

Kamala is already on the ticket. Maybe the Dems should pull a Putin/Medvedev switcharoo to calm these fools down.

Labour officially has the majority in Parliament.

One of my favorite parts of a UK election will be happening right now - moving trucks will be at Downing Street already. We don’t do transition - you’re out as soon as the votes are counted and the new PM can move in.

Most things I’m seeing are saying things like the lowest number of Conservative MPs ever - or at least for a long time.

Another example of if your vote doesn't matter, why do they try so hard to deter you from voting?

 

[Mark Antony]

He said he's in it to win it, at this stage they may as well get behind him and stop falling prey to your anxiety. Matter of fact this splintered public fodder isn't helping.
