2024 Elections: One Last Chance for Democracy

[mookie1995]

Donnie's not in office yet.

You can bet rounding up and deporting all the illegals that grow and harvest your fruits and veggies, and the 100% tariffs on everything imported won't have any effect at all on prices of stuff.

no no no! Our president promised us that prices will fall!! These things you mentioned are fake news. Prices will fall, and people best start early lowering prices or they will be jailed!

15 million less votes...what the **** is wrong with us...

The insane thing is that the campaign ran the best GOTV operation of my life. And people are just fine limping into authoritarianism.

This is my only hope. That we're all plunged into global depression and we light that anger on fire. It's going to kill a lot of people, but probably less than nazis in power forever.

The problem is, it could backfire and create the second holocaust. People get really stupid when they can't eat.

As a whole, Mookie has a point about the "economy".

Look at the make up of the board here:

- Only two regulars here that I can think of DON'T own a home
- I'd bet more than a few (30-40% ?) make well into the six-figures as a household (or are living at an equivalent economic status internationally)
- You easily support yourself AND kids
- Vacations/Travel (many international) are regular thing
- Y'all have retirement funds established

I've brought this point up many times over the past 3-4 years and I just get talked over. Just saying "corporate greed!!!11!1" doesn't make the situation better while you continuously flaunt the "great" economy numbers. Eventually when you do that enough, you will tick off whomever you are speaking to. As a whole, the board talks down to people who don't have money.

This is a real thing.

Elon said there's gonna be hardship.

Mind you, not hardship for people like he and Donnie. But for everyone else.........

We'll, this is what they wanted. This is what they voted for.

And you a*ss clowns wonder why you just got your *** handed to you.

This is what I don't get. So apparently the majority of people waiting in those lines voted for him? Looked like turnout was high, which should have favored her.

When the bad stuff starts happening to people (deportations, super high prices), I will just sit back and laugh at his supporters who will be affected.

Biden didn't get that many votes. Start there.

The demographic shift in the electorate over the last 12 years means high propensity voters - college educated especially- are solidly blue, while Trump kills with low propensity voters - young men and non-college educated men especially.

While Dems are on the morally right side encouraging everyone to vote, this isn't 20 years ago where getting that union plumber or nurse to vote is a guaranteed vote for them, especially when Trump is on the ballot. High turnout is no longer a guaranteed good thing for the Dems.

Thankfully, that enthusiasm hasn't yet carried over into elections where he isn't on the ballot, hence the lack of a red wave 2 years ago because the people that only vote in presidential elections didn't turn out. But we'll see if that holds going forward.

That senile doofus won't even make it a year. President Vance by January of 2026.

It absolutely floors me every time I see trades people or blue collar workers supporting Pervert Hoover. This man openly *brags* about not paying contractors their fair share or only hiring the cheapest fly-by-night people to evade building codes. And they *celebrate* him?!

Continually watching people vote for the Party of Leopards Eating People's Faces while complaining about the leopards that eat people's faces is infuriating.

Shut up.

Enjoy your complete *** beating & an absolute epic *** beating it was.

[Whalers]

I feel so helpless right now.

My daughter is queer and I’m scared she’ll be forcibly removed from my wife and I. My only hope is she’ll be 16 in April and maybe she’ll have agency. I doubt it though.

Hang in there Jim. Unless you live in Loudon County VA, Cambridge or Berkley, you only have to worry about this for another 10 weeks. If you DO live in those places, better move so this doesnt happen to your daughter/son. They will be safe in most other places after Jan 20th.
