2024 ELECTION THREAD
The next presidential race will be here soon! Please see current Bovada odds. Thoughts?
it was pretty US centrist. combined with how the Dem Platform has removed all their points about ending the death penalty and fighting injustice and replaced it with fund the police! is a little disheartening.
remember the part where Harris said US was going to be the most "lethal fighting force" and the crowd went wild.
dozens of people had health emergencies at trump rallies this year and he didnt give a crap. but then kamala and her husband notice someone in the crowd and get some good press for it and then the next trump rally there is a completely staged event where trump can waddle over to someone in the front row and "help".
So, after researching on my own from multiple sources, it does seems that some of her detractors exaggerated the issue.
She DID prosecute over 1900 people for Marijuana violations, but many were low level crimes, so only ~50 people ended up in jail for said charges.
Still, she was harder on weed than anyone before her, and she didn't come out and support the legalization until 2018.

and the problem with this is...... ?
Honestly, there is no logic behind this other than maybe.... "Oh, grass should be legal"

BUT, it wasn't at the time.
VERY weak
Not speaking for 72o, but most of us on the left aren't "blue" whatsoever; we explicitly do not support the blue team, so calling us "blue maga" is factually nonsensical.
Meh. "Blue" as the opposite of "red" works just fine. Your lot are just as overzealous, uncompromising, myopic, humourless and moronic as the MAGA turds, for the most part anyway.
Not a Trumper, I'm just antiestablishment. Have been my entire life. Given the extreme nature of the US political climate, it's pretty easy for me to decide which way to lean.
Ah good, we were running low on "not-a-Trumpers" who magically support Trump around here. It's a very original stance, apart from only just about every other Trump supporter in this forum.
One thing I've noticed about Trumpers is they absolutely hate being called Trumpers.

Dem sycophants saying ackshually its the leftists who are like Trumpers as they clap like seals over Republican talking points.
Prosecutors won 1900 felony/misdemeanor cases on Marijuana violations. Maybe you need to do some more research before you start coming up with these grand scale levels you're running on people.
I went and got the FACTS as you suggested and now you're just blatantly denying them lol..
Like I said, pure ignorance.

It's very common online to have actually non Trumpers that are right leaning on enough stuff.
It's a small part of the population but a significant part of the 20-45 adult white men "often online" population

Hi. Let's play spot the difference.
A) She DID prosecute over 1900 people for Marijuana violations
B) Prosecutors won 1900 felony/misdemeanor cases on Marijuana violations
hint: work left to right
Good luck! You aren't good at this.

It just so happens that normal people can sometimes agree on some things when they disagree on some, or even most other things. Also, in the real world there are such things as pragmatism and compromise. I don't expect you'll ever understand these adult concepts, but you could always at least make an effort.
CNBC: DOJ sues software firm RealPage for allegedly helping landlords collude to keep rents high
The Department of Justice accused software company RealPage of unlawfully scheming to undermine competition among landlords and create a monopoly that harms millions of renters. RealPage “allows landlords to manipulate, distort, and subvert market forces,” the Justice Department said in the federal civil antitrust lawsuit. Attorney General Merrick Garland said, “Everybody knows the rent is too damn high, and we allege this is one of the reasons why.”

More of the "free market" at work. Nice offset from Trump for Dems to campaign off on, considering he's a landlord. Him and his father were found to be
for their rentals back in the 70's.

the people that said "immigration is on the ballot" in 2020 are now gushing over Republican tough on immigration policies. but, thats just part of being an adult I guess. this is why #BlueMaga is a thing. it doesnt matter the police, when Dems present it, then its amazing and when Trump does then its literally Hitler.

Like I said, I don't know the specifics. I just know that on the balance of probability, if you think something is terrible, it's probably good. I don't think I've ever seen a take from you that isn't completely moronic, but I suppose I could be missing a needle in the shitstack.
right so you freely admit that have no idea what you are talking about and yet feel it necessary to confidently opine.

The only opinion I gave on the subject of Komrade Kamala's speech was "if you hated it, it was probably good". What uninformed opinions did I proffer exactly?
