Trump "dancing" for 40 minutes. Next he'll paint the walls with his own shit and they'll call it a campaign event.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/11/meteorologists-death-threats-hurricane-conspiracies-misinformation I feel as though i've been saying to myself that America has lost its mind for nearly a decade now but this is a new peek for crazy town. Just to be clear, these people do not believe ...

I think Trump will win, due to violence at polling booths, fake electors and fake votes in the states that decide the election. Trump's four year lie about the 'stolen' election of 2020 will mute democrat protest about real election fraud in 2024. If he isn't declared the winner there'll be a civil ...

I guess Putin is hoping Trump wins then. But if not, do you think he may withdraw? This election is proving to be so pivotal on so many fronts. He may not withdraw but he may stop advancing and try to negotiate to keep what he has already taken, the Ukrainians won't stand for that that though, it's ...

Assuming Trump wins (at worst it's 50/50), we'll still have to wait and see what a second go at the office looks like. There are those that downplay the prospect of authoritarianism based on his previous term, which despite the chaos and the covid fuck ups, was largely business as usual. I feel as ...

Reich finishes with some tentative optimism but i have to say that the good feelings i've had about Harris winning are starting to wane. The polling is just too close, and maga intimidation on election day is a real possibility and may have a proper impact. 30 odd days to go! Farrrrk..... America ...

I have this half-formed uneducated idea about regional wars where the great powers take an interest. If it was just between the regional residents and their neighbours it would be far less deadly, less drawn-out and easier to find a solution. But because Russia, the USA, Australia, Iran etc., all ...

I find myself furiously agreeing with every word of this article by Tim Winton. I'm not a fan of his fiction, but this is great.

Trump has a use by date. Even if he wins in November it will only extend his effectiveness for a finite time, probably less than the four years of his term. Who steps into the void? It looks to me like the fascist branch of SIlicon Valley is best placed. Thiel, Musk, Vance, the Trump sons, the crypt ...

True it's hard to trust polling, however every indication in most state level polls indicate undercounting of the dems not the republicans. Races that the R's expect to win easily are much closer or sometimes lost. Most polls don't take into account the large number of first time voters who are ...
