US Presidential Election, Nov 5th 2024

[Frank the Yank]

If you're from the UK, chances are they're not going to be promoting US election stuff to you unless you have a history of looking it up. I haven't used it for a long time, but the BBC did an experiment with dummy 'undecided voter' accounts on social media for this election.

One key thing that came out is that Elon Musk's posts were heavily promoted, and a lot of those were blatantly promoting conspiracy nonsense and promoting Trump.

It was quite an interesting article.

0800 FUCK OFF YOU WUM

Yep. People are morons but you can’t tell them they’re morons because that would be rude and talking down to them so we’ve got to pretend their incorrect view has the same value as real facts.
And here we are. A moron voted in by morons because they’ve been gullible enough to believe a narrative propagated by cunts like Musk with insufficient pushback.

“A moron voted in by morons.” That will flip a lot of votes!! The day after I said not to fret there is an over reaction declaring the Democrats dead. I said all will be well in the 2026 midterms and the Dems will regain control of one chamber.

Having seen the Dems reaction to this beat down, it appears there is no self awareness no sense of self examination. If they continue down this path, I might have to reconsider said prediction.

It might be moot since this is probably be the last time we Americans are allowed to cast votes if you listen to some of the totally unhinged Dems.

If you think Trump is bad now, wait until IF he has success in the midterms

Let’s be honest, the Dems fucked this up so badly on many different levels. It’s early days yet but they could continue down that path.

I was talking about his net worth.

That’s temporary and fluctuating, not really “got his money back” but maybe I’m being pedantic.

He’s certainly got his money worth if it’s power he craves…

I hope he's playing the long game, because he lost shit loads on the deal to buy Twitter.

Arrogance of wealth FORCED him to have to buy Twitter after his mouth got him in trouble. The courts weren’t having his buyers remorse, so some of his Tesla stock bought it.

Now, it’s a cesspit.

Everyone keeps saying they fucked up. I’m getting tired of asking the same question.

No one has offered a winning solution to a candidate willing to lie and lie and lie and lie and millions who believe him.

Lay out your strategy for how you’d have defeated him then.

And don’t moan about Biden’s late exit — I already said he should have dropped out at the latest after the midterms back then.

I’m all ears — we all are.

Just stating opinion not trying to change minds about voting.
This is Bluemoon not Twitter or Facebook. If some Trump voters or supporters see their arses I don’t really give a fuck.

If you want to be really pedantic he didn’t stump up $44bn of his own cash. It was a combination of cash, shares, bank loans and other investors.

On the other hand, if it was part of his plan to help get Trump elected it was money well spent.

Loads of different opinions, nowt wrong with that, as long as it’s an educated opinion, knock your socks off.

Yes, but that isn't the stuff getting posted here that I'm talking about. The idea that America suddenly changed this week is nonsense. America is the same as it was last week, it's just that the penny has dropped with democrats that hardy anyone more than 30 miles inland of the coast thinks they are a good idea or agrees with them. The behaviour described on here of groups of young men and idiotic racist text messages probably amount to a huge 'fuck you' from people that have just endured months of being insulted and talked down to. It's all been like watching a slow moving car crash.

If I were a betting man, I'd put more money on lots of these being Hoaxes. It won't shock me if the text messages were sent by some liberal pulling a nasty prank.

The Jussie Smollett tactic.

It won't be the first time some people 're-ensvt' what they believe s 'racist Trump supporter' is supposed to sound or act like.

It's all despicable stuff. But easily lapped up by folks who want to expect the worst so bad that they are yarning for it.

It's an absolute cesspit.

It's essentially unchecked power to be able to spout any lies that suit his agenda.
