So you listened to nothing Kamala said about the border
Iâm drunk and not sure what level youâre on but thatâs not the place to stage that battle and to the extent they did it was always going to be the weak response on an issue they were getting their ass kicked on.
Akin to Kamala coming out as a gun owner.
CNN calls the election for Trump
Itâs going to be a long four years. Or eight, 12, whatever. I donât wish bad on the country, but i donât see Trump solving things or making life better, so the whole country should hate him in four years, but his people wonât, because nothing is the cult leaderâs fault.
And in four years they wonât have to actually win. They can just say they won and whoâs going to stop them? Democracy was good to us though. Fun while it lasted.
Per NY Times, Trump will win the popular vote by 1.3%. AtlasIntelâs final popular vote estimate: 1.2%.
I guess Instagram ads are the way forward for polling. It kind of makes sense when you think about it. How else would you poll the brain poisoned population except through the brain poison app.

I mean sure, Dems should campaign better. The main problem is, a largely positive message wonât break through the algorithm in the same way hate and fear does. Hope doesnât generate nearly as much engagement.
Now what?
(Also I have huuuuuge issues with Dem policies, but thatâs a separate topic)

I mean, the fundamental problem is that people are just too fucking stupid and lazy and self-indulgent to have a say in how theyâre governed. What are you really supposed to do?

Slow Pony Express just set itself to private mode. You folks should seriously consider doing the same, for your own safety. I wish you all the best.

Anyone that thinks setting a forum to private now makes a difference has a completely false sense of security which I also pointed out there.

This road may flood tonight
If I heard the weatherman right
I ainât seen a cloud in sight
The whole damn day
There ainât a soul in this old coal town
Itâs quiet on the courthouse grounds
Just empty cars with windows down
I guess itâs on its way
And last time it rained, I didnât sleep for weeks
Worryinâ on those risinâ creeks
Gravel bars and busted beach
And mountains made of slate
Too fucking self-indulgent to have a say in their own governance, I say!
Itâs not the dems. Itâs not the gop. Itâs America. The culture is rotten to the core. Itâs central values are broken. Itâs priorities are misguided. It cares about false freedom so much its citizens are incapable of making rationale choices. It has been heading for a Christian white supremacist theocracy since its founding. And now it has it. It was sadly inevitable.
No amount of dem strategizing could have changed that.
I feel terrible for the people who will suffer and for the good people who post here. Iâm pretty sure I will be spending a lot less time in the politics parts of the forum as it seems so pointless.

Iâm so sorry. And feel your pain. Wildly similar story here. Pet died in spring. Then Ms. JordanIB lost her father. Our brother in law took his own life in summer. And now this in fall. Painful year.

Conservatives are incredible at controlling the narrative. They screamed for four years about inflation and the border. Doesnât matter that every financial forecast was predicting a medium to large recession that never materialized and inflation was already rising before Biden took office.
A consistent coordinated response is needed,
-
Inflation started under Trump and was brought down by Democrats and
-
We did what they said couldnât be done and avoided a recession altogether.
-
Immigration brings in tax dollars without spending helping citizensâ get more from their government
-
Immigrants commit less crime than US citizens do on a per capita basis.
Just keep repeating the same lines over and over and if called out for repeating the same lines just call it rich that repeated lies are why this question is even being asked in the first place.
Treat the electorate like idiots and start bragging about accomplishments and defend negative things by saying you are focused on the long term health of the country.
Yeah, perhaps Iâm being a SSC, but while things will be very very bad I donât they will be âtrack people down who said things on message boards and put them in campsâ bad, and if they are that bad, then someone from the government having to create an account to find your posts probably wonât help much.
