Not another one knight stand!

Got more toots than Mastodon.

If AOC’s too Capitalist for ya I got bad news about 95% of America.

AOC had a similar response on Pod Save America.

You win political influence by being a crucial part of a win. You lose political influence if your political opponents are in office. The best chance to have your voice heard on Israel is being a crucial part of a Harris win.

That is the calculation.

I mean I’ll do you one better, Moodys did inflation research in 2022 and found that laws signed by Biden contributed 0.1% of the then 8.5% inflation. Basically nothing, it was all Covid supply chains and a Russian oil shock.

But, that’s still the explanation for why incumbents around the world are unpopular right now.

CPI year-over-year, the common meaning of “inflation,” was 9.1% in June of 2022.

I assume you’re using some other metric but what a bad look jumping to misinformation.

It’s close because Trump is not a disciplined candidate and he keeps doubling down on young men instead of trying to build his appeal to new areas.

Most of the time if inflation hits 9% and wages lag behind inflation (as they always do) the incumbent party loses. Nikki Haley would be winning 60/40 right now.

There’s a middle ground. The near future of the party is Ron DeSantis and JD Vance, the smoothed down versions of Trump. I don’t think that works and someone new will come out fully populist with authoritarian edges, maybe a Hispanic man to help attract the working class beyond just white people, that seems to be the growth opportunity Republicans need and maybe that solidifies Arizona/Nevada/Texas for them while they put all the effort into the Blue Wall and North Carolina.

My big secret. I kill graphic design homework on purpose. I good designer. The best!

He’s doing what the Board wants, stock price is up. If there was a worker advocate on the board, maybe things would be different.

But one day I might be in the 1%! And when I am, I’ll show people like ME a thing or two.

There’s one wall he didn’t build 👀

And that time was Trump’s first term, he limited legall immigration already.

If you try to assassinate someone, get F’d, but I mean she clearly is biased for Trump so he doesn’t NOT have a point.

My boomer trait is that I never did online dating and I don’t know which swipe is the good direction.

I am frankly shocked that the trans stuff apparently works, well enough to be a main thrust of an ad campaign. Like I fully get there’s a subset of Americans who are not comfortable with the concept, dislike trans people, think it’s immoral or whatever. But it’s such a big deal to you that we need a particular political party in charge so they can ban stuff? I just can’t relate to that. But it’s common enough that they run these ads, it’s either firing up true believers or actually converting people. Somehow.

Stop. According to his favorite pollsters he’s the favorite to win, and he’s a narcissist, and there’s plenty of time to flee between November and January if he was going to.

Googling this, it seems like he’s trying to EMPHASIZE Harris working there when she was younger. If he actually does this, it will backfire spectacularly.

If he says she’s lying about working there, it just looks like an insane conspiracy theory because it’s one of the most common jobs. It’s not like an impossible thing.

If he tries to say it’s easy so no one should be impressed with her, he just insults every fast food worker in America.

I think this is a really smart move if he never mentions Harris, it makes him look more down to Earth and humble which…he needs. If he’s doing it as a commentary on Harris, it’s going to backfire.

Damn and after all Donald Trump did for him.

Very funny that this KKK leader endorsed the Green Party candidate because she was the only one anti-Israel. Something something horseshoe theory I guess.

A majority of Americans didn’t watch the first one so I’m not sure we can take this literally.

Sort of seems like “do you want a balanced budget” …yes of course. “Do you want to raise taxes or cut spending to achieve that?” …no I would never want either of those options.

People like the idea of debates but they don’t impact the race unless someone truly bombs.
