It is so amazing imo that Trump has 50% more votes than anyone else in history. Given demographic and democratic trends it is unlikely that anyone will ever top him. perfect

He lost the popular vote two times out of three, never won a majority and still managed to bring the country to its knees and threaten democracy itself. Truly an all-time great.
The average US adult has voted for Trump .8 times!

Did a little more math. The average US citizen since 1776 has voted for Donald Trump about .35 times!

Trumpâs numbers really shouldnât be a surprise. Heâs run three times as a major party candidate when the US population is at its highest in history.
This farmer getting 300+ volunteers to pick up his barn and walk it 115â uphill showed up in my FB feed and I had to check to see if it was real. Itâs pretty impressive imo.
Heâll have 300 million votes pretty soon.
Well at least Trump isnât taking their oil money.
Yes but at this point it would be like Nolan Ryan or Gretzky suiting up again trying to inflate their career stats. Totally unnecessary at this point - nobody can catch him. When the US finally fades away Trump will still be the all-time leading president.

Just randomly came across this and realized that the past is a completely foreign country, what do you mean people dropped out because they were caught plagiarizing speeches?.
In June 1987, Biden, then in his third term as a Senator, declared his intentions to run for president.[5] Originally, Biden was regarded as potentially one of the strongest candidates in the field.[6] However following reports that he had plagiarized a speech by Neil Kinnock, leader of the British Labour Party, he withdrew before the first contest of the 1988 Democratic Party presidential primaries.[7]
Someone bump the Amanda Knox thread in oot
The Edinburgh festival fringe has said it is ânot afraid of controversyâ after it faced calls to cancel a sold-out show by Amanda Knox, who was wrongfully convicted for the 2007 murder of her flatmate Meredith Kercher in Italy.
Knoxâs comedy show, Cartwheel, has been condemned by Kercherâs family, with her sister, Stephanie, saying it ânormalises and trivialises violence against womenâ. A petition calling for it to be cancelled has been signed by more than 9,000 people.
In a statement posted on Instagram, Knox, 39, said of the petition: âCartwheel is a show about motherhood, raising a daughter in a world that is unfair and dangerous for women, and what it costs to be the kind of mother who tells her the truth about that. Neither the author of this petition nor anyone who signed it has seen Cartwheel.â
I didnât follow that and donât remember what little I did follow, but whatever side Henry17 was on was the wrong side, right?

No, imo.
He thought that she did it, and I think she probably did too.

Dunno man, The Guardian said âwrongfully convictedâ.
Oreo?
Well it was ultimately overturned after multiple levels of appeal, so in that sense, she was wrongly convicted in the view of the final appeals court (they call it something else).
Really cursory view of that immense thread and there are a lot of people donât know, many I hate and a few I like and the ones I like I think are all on the not proven guilty side. (Keeed, Yakmelk, ninetynine99)
âNot proven guiltyâ, maybe, the police screwed up a lot. But legalities aside, she very clearly did it imo.
