President Donald Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
It's unbelievably stupid and naive to even consider that that was the same "electorate." The modern electorate was enraged by Obama's election. Their composition, motivations, energy, and tactics have changed entirely since then.
Also, the conspiracy theory mindset has spread unfettered across the country in the last 15+ years due to the internet and facebook in particular. Fox news has grown basically out of control and ruined so many lives and minds, not to mention the fing country, it's completely incomparable.
That was a really, REALLY stupid equivocation.

You completely ignore the substance of Obama's governance.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news .... but that was basically the same electorate in 2012 and 2016.
Trump won narrowly in 2016 via the rust belt trifecta of WI, PA and MI.
Hillary didn't set foot in WI during the general election. Trump was running to the left of her in those states based upon their jobs getting shipped away by NAFTA which Bill Clinton entered into.
It's simply sad when people can not acknowledge the political flaws of the Dem Establishment as being part of the demand for Trump.
Everything Trump touches dies. Everything. That has been well known.
Yet idiot Americans chose him.
Imagine having such poor judgment that you thought Harris could ever be a worse POTUS than Trump.
Maybe the Biden administration shouldn't have been greenlighting the genocide in Gaza. Maybe the Dems should have chosen their representative democratically and not defaulted to someone with an objectively abysmal public appeal. Kamala Harris nearly lost a statewide race for AG to a Republican in deep blue California, winning by 1 pt. That's not easy for a Dem to pull off such a poor performance.
Harris ran for the Dem nomination in 2020.
She started with the most money and coverage.
She did so poorly at getting voters to prefer her that she had to drop out before Iowa.

I didn't ignore anything at all about this, and you won't be "informing" me of anything to do with this topic. Make no mistake: we're not arguing or discussing anything. I was correcting your stupid, uninformed post.
1. Because the 'undisclosed neighborhood' is presumably somewhere in DC, which is a very dangerous place.
So dangerous, you might run into a few dozen white supremacists while on a train, eh?
But there are no safe places to live in DC? You think politicians are maintaining residences in the ghettos of DC?
2. The white supremacists (i.e. members of Patriot Front) were en route to their Independence Day Mostly Peaceful Protest (TM Pending). Harming the girl in front of a Reuter's photographer would probably not only be bad PR but would almost certainly land them in jail.
Hence why I agreed that any target would likely be the photographer; you know, no witnesses and all.
3. These folks might be angling for a guest appearance on Tucker or Nick Fuentes and for that to happen they can't come across as a gang of thugs picking on defenseless young women.
SPECULATION FALLACY ALERT!!!

The Dems slid by 9.3 million popular votes from 2020 (Biden +7.0m) to 2024 (Harris - 2.3m) in 2024.
Homelessness increased by 18% in 2024. Biden was greenlighting genocide in Gaza.
Just which part of the Democratic base was excited about this performance ? Who decided that Kamala Harris s/b be the candidate ? What does she even stand for besides not being Donald Trump ?
You can call me stupid all you want .... but elections are a popularity contest and the Dems put up someone with no record of being popular. An electoral dud. That's stupid.

Well, you would think a guy with 34 felony convictions, adjudicated a rapist in civil court, was a shitty president, and a longtime best friend with a pedophile would not be a popular pick, but here we are.
Nut Nut acts like the issue was the process of choosing Harris. The problem was running Biden.
Getting Harris up asap was the best option given where they were after Biden faceplanted at the debate.
What would you have approved? Forming a committee to begin looking at a path to think about some kind of out-of-band primary?
I guess I should correct myself ... it was only stupid to put up Harris if the Dems hoped to win.
Based upon my observation .... they aren't really trying to win. They're just trying to make sure a left winger like Bernie doesn't win.

Biden has been senile for a long time. They should have had a primary and Biden should have been the one-termer he said he would be.
Bernie Sanders would have been a better option than Harris.
Putting Trump in charge is the equivalent of letting a petulant child drive a car.
There is no justification for putting a petulant child behind the wheel of a car, no matter how much you want to spin it. None.
I don’t give a **** how bad the Trumptarded think Biden or Harris or whomever was. Trump is and always was worse.
Just own the fact you ****ed up by voting for him and stop blaming others for your shitty judgment.
Meanwhile ... the world is happy .... Trump's intervention in US Soccer seems to be faceplanting.

In my original post I clarified that there WERE safe places in DC. You even made reference to it in a recent response to me. (Remember my parenthetical 'afterthought'?)
Hence why I agreed that any target would likely be the photographer; you know, no witnesses and all.
Problem is ALL the likely suspects were masked Patriot Front members. (And trains often have cameras, especially in awful, crime-ridden cities like DC.)
SPECULATION FALLACY ALERT!!!
'Speculating' isn't a fallacy, you silly goose. (Especially since I made it clear I was speculating, you dum-dum.)
