US Politics Thread

Trouble is, a lot of the people it affects are those who are on the trump ride or die bus.

Poor and ethnic areas are going to lose social income, health care and now education. Thats before you even get in to the abortion and contraception regulations. Its criminal. "But hey, it has to be the fault of those woke libs in NY and CA. Trump is one of us".

Mine was a dual meaning comment! ;-)

Project 2025 is coming if we elect Trump AND the highlighting of the American Taliban’s wet dream 2025 is coming to a Democratic media ad near you!

Did he endorse Biden in 2019?

Endorsed and stumped for him.

Though, customarily you don’t unleash heavy hitters like Obama on to the campaign trail until a month or so from the election, to ensure they have the biggest, most sustained impact on both crowds and media coverage.

He’ll endorse Harris, he is just waiting until doing so will have the greatest net benefit to her campaign (namely, when media coverage begins to subside a bit).

The destruction of public education, to ensure an ignorant, gullible, compliant citizenry has long, long been the dream of the ultra-conservative and far-right in the US, even beyond the Christian white nationalist aspirations of a theocratic educational model.

In many ways, “woke” is as much a slur against the “well-educated” as it is “liberals” for this reason. Just listen to anytime Desantis uses it for an example of that nuance. The irony abounds there, as well, given he attended Yale, and later Harvard Law; but that is because it is all about being “educated” the way the Christian white nationalist oligarchs want you to be “educated”.

But, as you and I have said many times recently, the MAGA-takeover of the Supreme Court may actually allow them to finally realise their vision.

One of so many reasons Harris must defeat Trump.

Hillbilly JD Vance, who went to Yale Law School(!), even talks about liberal elites!

They are supreme gaslighters who think YOU are so uneducated you’ll skip right by the mouthpiece and rush to see where the finger is being pointed!

America’s anchor around its neck is the STATE EDUCATION SYSTEM. The same RED STATES are always at the bottom of the pile and they generate the majority of the RED VOTERS in the country.

It really is statistically simple enough to chart education levels against political affiliation and votes.

It is also easy to chart taxes spent on education and social services the same way.

It is a well-known, if not widely spread, fact that BLUE STATE FEDERAL INCOME TAXES FUND THE FEDERAL PROGRAMS IN RED STATES!!

This is shown by the fact that for every $1 of taxes paid by Blue States, LESS than $1 is returned in federal programs or services. Red state federal taxes are returned in EXCESS of $1, thus being subsidized by the Blue states.

However, in most Red states, you hear about how bad Federal Govt is and how the Blue states are killing America!

THEY’RE OBLIVIOUS TO THE IRONY, AS ALWAYS!!

It’s like the MAGA sign “Keep Govt Out of my Medicare!” Medicare is LITERALLY the GOVT MEDICARE CARE SYSTEM FOR SENIORS!!!

Education in American schools is a disgrace. Schools care more about their swimming pools, football stadia, athletics tracks, theatres, and palatial surroundings than the 3 Rs. In fact, they’re so clueless, they’d even point out that only one of those words actually starts with an R, so you must be the dumb one!!!

Like I said, they don’t do irony…at least not knowingly!

There’s no way he’s not been teed up for this. Not a fucking chance.
 
Obama will be used to help solidify the black vote, as that community has been a little suspicious of her, and to help raise funds from those who don’t know her as well as they might like. His personal, as in time commitment, endorsement is a BFD to Dems. He is a very conscious supporter, as his cache depends on his scarcity.

Indeed, EVERYONE is going to be coming out for Harris now, because not only is this election so important, it could be the death of MAGA and the refutation of all that it stands for.

The election of a black woman of immigrant parents over Trump would be the biggest FUCK YOU! possible.

We HAVE TO make this happen and put MAGA back in its box.
