while you dei guys seriously grapple with whether or not black people can be air traffic controllers, trump floats a change in military leadership to race car drivers and football coaches. unfortunately some of them are probably n’s. well not the race car drivers.

Trump posted

"Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
We're not ready for a Marxist President, and Lyin' Kamala Harris is a RADICAL LEFT MARXIST, AND WORSE!"

 

[Andy_Ross]

Recycling nicknames. He must be desperate.

I will pay Trump one hundred kajillion squintillion dollars if he can provide an accurate definition of a Marxist without looking it up.

We've seen what happens when football coaches go into politics:

Former football coach Tommy Tuberville:

“I tell people, my dad fought 76 years ago in Europe to free Europe of Socialism,”

"[ Democrats] want crime because they want to take over what you got. They want to control what you have. They want reparations because they think the people that do the crime are owed that."

“My opinion of a white nationalist, if someone wants to call them white nationalist, to me is an American.”

the three branches of the United States government are “the House, the Senate and executive,”

“The Democrats are attacking our military, saying we need to get out the white extremists, the white nationalists, people that don’t believe in our agenda,”

Tuberville also single-handedly stalled military promotions for almost a year despite bi-partisan opposition.

Meanwhile, the tide of female support for Harris is fast-becoming a tsunami.

Once the Swiftes, Beyhive and other cool kids unite, the Republicans won't know what hit them.

Harris 2024!

Wait for it...

Kamala Harris is using Beyoncé's "Freedom" as her campaign song.

'"Beyoncé gave permission to Harris to use [her song "Freedom"] on Tuesday, a campaign official confirmed to The Associated Press who was granted anonymity to discuss private campaign operations."

Meanwhile, by many measures the economy is booming:

CNN

Inflation down, and the post covid recession that most pundits, and of course Donald Trump, hoped and believed would crush us never materialized.

Stock market, which Trump insisted would crash under Biden, has soared.

Im still in pain at the grocery checkout, but as a retail shop owner I can attest that while people are spend-wary, they are still spending.

The traditional wisdom that a growing economy predicts the winner of an election would suggest that Dems will win big, especially for the presidency when the GOP candidate is insane and old.

Yet, it still appears to be a tight race, which is quite puzzling and disturbing, it suggests the scam of numerous lies told by right wing media and general distrust in government has had a profound effect. Hopefully Harris or whoever will take them to task for all the nonsense.

To be fair, Tuberville didn't say which side his father was fighting on during World War Two.

I've said it before. If you're opposed to Diversity, then you support monoculture. If you're opposed to Equity, then you support inequity. If you're opposed to Inclusion, then you support exclusion.

I bet a dozen donuts Trump doesn't even know he exists.

I bet a dozen Boston Creme Donuts that Donald Trump doesn't even know Donald Trump exists! He's a P-zombie!

 

[Stacyhs]

To be fair, Tuberville didn't say which side his father was fighting on during World War Two.

I know you're joking, but actually, he did:

“My father, Charles Tuberville, made the D-Day landing at Normandy as a tank commander with the 101st infantry. He served with honor during World War II, earning five Bronze Stars and a Purple Heart.”

“He was a tank commander with the 101st Infantry and landed at Normandy Beach on D-Day and drove a tank through the streets of Paris when the U.S. forces liberated the city.”

What I don't get about Republican politicians or pundits.

What in God's name compells them to attack immensely popular celebrities that endorse Democrats?

There is absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose by attacking Taylor Swift and Beyonce. Yet they do it. They only give more news cycles to the endorsements. It also tends to compell their targets to double down.

It's a miracle! People will want to touch it to be cured of cancer.

If they didn't want cancer they should have stayed away from those noisy windmills.

There's a very simple reason:

THEY'RE IDIOTS!!!​

Thank you, Ibram X. Arthwollipot. You should write a book.

Because that's what they know how to do and do well. They're like junk yard dogs always growling, baring their teeth, and biting.

Abortion is a swing subject for American women, as it should be.
The Republicans are morons on the issue.
I stand by my post, but thank you for your compliment.

or... an experimental AI?

I assumed that if anyone managed to decode his stream of consciousness... contributions... they'd reveal a time, date and location where the the lucky winner would receive the Golden Rabbit.
