My concern going forward is how the Global Economic market reacts to a Trump presidency. Will Trump give them the stability they are looking for or will it destabilize.

This was completely unforeseeable. I can't believe it didn't work!
You sound like a real ####ing idiot.

This. Trump won this election because his campaign resonated with uneducated/poor people.

And he might even objectively help them - tariffs are good for US manufacturing, and resource extraction and reduced immigration both support wages at the low end of the scale.

The democrats need to get in touch with their historic labour base if they want a path to victory. Rich tech workers care about the stuff they campaigned on, but there aren't many of them in Wisconsin.

Sucks for Ukraine that the democrats couldn't get out of their own way. If Biden doesn't run again a contested primary almost certainly gets them a winning candidate.

The knock on Harris is that she manufactured, hides behind teleprompters and speeches. Can't have a normal person conversation. Rogan was an easy interview, he attacks nobody but she couldn't even do that. Trump and Vance go on Rogan and look normal. They talked about everything.

Yeah, even as someone who thinks Rogan is a complete tool, that was a really stupid and unforced error on her part.

Trump better hold up his end on brokering an end to the wars. Time for the big talker to put his money where his mouth is.

As for the revolutionary tariffs strategy, those with an education already know how that will backfire.

So who do the Democrats pick for their next run in 4 years?


I expect that they'll push for Witmer or Beshear or Shapiro.



I know its early, but Its interesting.

While every earnest Trump supporter deserves the inevitable pain that comes their way.

I'm so sad for the folks who will be the target of the anger and violence that will come from this because that's all these idiots have. Lgbtq+ suicides and murders are going to rise, as will murders of trans women and not to mention the deaths of women who just want health care.

Ukraine, the rest of Europe.... This is just bad all around for everyone except 10-15 billionaires and Putin.

And we can forget about meeting any climat targets to avoid the worst of climate change.

This election will have a significant death toll.

I more want to bring it up a lot in this thread, you know in about 3 posts I am going to post the law that you guys support and joke about regarding child grooming, r and carry to term right? If you are going to be happy about grooming and marriage of 14 and grooming at 12, own it paste it for us before i do. at least then you looked at it
When it gets cold they leave the street corner, bring in their signs and get to ranting the same thought over and over on the internet instead. Lucky us.

This is where I am at too.

Shapiro vs Vance is gonna be the next ticket. I do believe that's why they didn't put him forward as VP.

I don't know or care what you are blathering about. You seem to be here repeating the same stuff over and over again and frankly if I knew where you lived,I would likely call in a wellness check for you.

You seem intent on trying to pick a fight.
Nah man - you in particular are east cost like me. Ill still go you on who is divisive tonight, easy money.

But if noone acknowledges the bill and what is being proposed, and how it says child grooming and marriage at 14 years old should be legal and how that is wrong, then I will post a lot. Maybe this hits google and other who arent educated or didnt know about the new law and those coming. Maybe they wont be beta or will be a dad and will be aware and say thats messed up.

As opposed to - 'you seem angry, and want to fight' just because there is a law saying that at 40 year old, or 60, year old, can marry a kid and you are ok with that. It is already in the courts.

Show the law and ill let it go, or you support it and ill paste it then also show you thats what grooming really is. not some book reading or a dame edna or whatever Sketch

I have a lot of ways to spend my day, but calling out people who support grooming and 14 year old marriage laws is easy against sick or ignorant people It is actually on the books man, and its not like the party hides it.
