Fucking nutjobs

What’s Trump’s current favorability rating? Now do Jorgensen!

Nice logic, Foxsucker.

“Oooooh, I can’t vote for any ‘Dem’. Ooooooh, but I can’t vote for Trump either, he’s not nice. Oooooh, what am I to do?” Imagine going to war with you. So yellow Patton would have slapped you.

We know why you want the narrative changed as “conservatives” look more and more insane every day, and those who enabled them (like you) look dumber and more afraid to stand up to them every day. Cowardice is your stock in trade.

Ok now that you had your fill. Can you start that inflation discussion up?

You and all the other intelligent folks can get it rolling. I'll be on the sideline cheering you on.

one thing I like about the US is that if you don't believe or in some cases know or just couldn't be fagged voting for a candidate is for you then you don't have to and hopefully are not bullied or shamed into doing so as around 35-50 per cent choose not to every 4 years.

Yeah, don't worry Foggy actually isn't as stupid as he pretends to be on these threads. He knows that. Just likes playing to the gallery :)

In oz its compulsory albeit a small fine if you don't and many deliberately choose to vote donkey.

Rarely does the vote get over 60 per cent of those who can and the jump from 54 in 2016 to 62 in 2024 was largely due to those who were keen to see the back of Trump rather than the prospect of a new dawn under Biden.

I question whether Trump was really the cause of the jump. The jump was unlikely due to an anti-Trump surge. More likely than not, the laxing voting laws across the country due to covid (i.e. sending ballots to everyone on a States voter registry, that allowed stay home voting and ballot harvesting) probably played a larger role.

so you are trying to suggest that they can model the likelihood of voter turnout, they can take into account numerous variable..... but they can't model the variable of participating in polling? Things such as the TX ballotbox, how would you model that that legislation was brought in during the voting and they would have nothing to model it on

Can interest you in buying a bridge from me?

Lol

 

[Dax777]

As you know I don't have a dog in your fight with Fog, however, just to state that Neolibs do have a sauce for their blame.

I don't either. It's just Foggy chasing his own tail :)

I mean... what the actual fuck?

Well

That hearing showed Trump is a ****. Who knew?

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

I mean... what the actual fuck?

I’ve watched Fox a few times, surely people can’t believe what they’re saying?

Even without critical thinking you’d be laughing at how dumb some of the stuff is.

They actually do. It's fucking poison.

I presume the sideline is where you’ve spent your life, and thank Christ for that.

Best indication so far that Pence wants to be the next candidate then

Trumper's are never going to vote for him. His only hope is moderate Republicans and undecided voters.

He's a bit of an oddball in all honesty. Too much of a religious nutjob, which might appeal to a lot of voters.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

But they're all the same though, right?

Ironic given how the GOP is consuming itself from within. Or maybe you hadn’t noticed.

All fair points but a lot of money was spent on convincing people that Trump was not given to be given another fours years which bemused me a little as I thought Trump especially with some of his comments did his best to assist in his own " demise ".

Fog always makes for good exchange and like many is passionate about the matters he takes an interest in albeit at times he lets his emotions get the better of him but he has admitted that at least unlike some others and I think he is actively working on improving that aspect of his posting.

It is interesting that on other and IMO subjects like music which to me is far more important in my life and I hazard to guess in his life as well despite my background in unionism which could easily have led me to a career in politics and some of our political differences our tastes are so alike and often for very similar reasons but that is the beauty of the brain and how little we understand how it works still.

Oh for sure

Not to win, to disrupt. Deflect enough votes away from whatever Trumper candidate is running, like Ross Perot used to do

Maybe.

Republican primaries are going to be absolutely SAVAGE.
