Trump quack, advisor, supporter. Got off Trumps aircraft with him prior to debate.


The scare mongering is frightening in this day and age, a throw back to the cold war.
They might as well really change the name of the political party and be done with it, so it is as clear as day from the Republicans to the NNN aka Neo Nazi Neanderthals.

Terrifying. Even if you went back to the most politically incorrect TV show of the 1970s, and a character that was deliberately written to be as racist as they thought they possibly get away with, they would have drawn the line at that.

Well, I think Trump did quite poorly and Harris did better than I expected, in as much as she memorized her lines flawlessly without saying anything of substance. She’s an empty pant suit IMO, with not one authentic bone in her body, being run by the same people who are currently running the country, whoever the hell they may be…

ABC were a disgrace, moderators my arse, it was an assault on Trump.

In fact, the moderators allowed Trump to talk much more than Harris. They unmuted his mic on several occasions when a question has already been wrapped up to allow him to spew more vile nonsense and dig the hole he was in even deeper.

Did anyone actually read the Federalist story that lasveg-gas posted?

It's so full of lies itself. A great example from their Supreme Leader of how to craft lies. Heil Drumpf!
I read through the whole thing, which was full of their lies and distortions. Number 1 said she lied about being middle-class because, in their opinion, she is not. It only got worse from there.
The only verifiable untruth she told was saying inflation under Trump was the highest since the Second World War.

I read an article on the Sky News website earlier, and they found a Republican voter who said they planned on voting for Trump despite admitting that they think he is a lunatic, but at least he isn't a Democrat.

Edit: Found it.

From wiki....

The Federalist has not disclosed its funding sources and critics have asked who is funding the site, since ad revenue alone would not be enough for the publication to sustain its staff of 14

Sounds pukka

It’s interesting how the pro-Trump mob have to claim Kamala Harris lied with things like “she said inflation is 3.1% when it’s actually 3.4%” when Trump got fact checked for saying the Democrats are in favour of mass infanticide

Quite, I watched it last night and lost count of the amount of times Trump was allowed to speak over the "moderators" and get another 30 seconds to a minute to spout his shit over the time he was allowed without Harris then being given time to go back on that. The one time that Harris tried that, she was spoken over and had to keep quiet. Trumpies are moaning it was 3 against 1, I'd argue it was closer to the other way around.

Trump's arse must get so jealous of all the shit that comes out of his mouth.
The sad fact of life is there are tens of millions of people that feel so disenfranchised by a country with 50% higher GDP per capita than our own, they are prepared to turn a blind eye to anything.

Something has gone seriously wrong.

Come on @lasvegan. It is OK to say you are prepared to put up with all Trump's "idiosyncracies" because there is some expectation that his policies will benefit you personally more than the opposition's will.

Exactly. The reasons for voting Trump fall into a few categories:
* He'll make tax cuts or do similar that will help you personally, and to hell with everyone else
* You're racist, homophobic, transphobic etc
* You're thick as shit

If you're denying the second two, be honest about the first.


But it is a mistake to attempt to defend your position to all comers with an attempt at reasoning and logic. Why bother? It's preaching. It's like Christian Scientists. That's where understandable perceptions of self interest, or harmless prejudice or religious belief morph into cultism.

Exactly. Trying to defend something completely illogical with logic is, well, illogical. And that's being kind.

Wow. So Facebook allows racist tropes. I never knew (because all my Facebook friends are nice).

Into the sea with her.
