Which is mine blowing because they talk so much about the Epstein list, because they believe it confirms their belief about corrupt elites, but then totally reject that the most likely guilty one is trump.
"there was no switch. That's why you see all of those Democrats waving the Confederate flag. That why all of the Confederate states are deep blue."
What instance is "literal Nazis"?
And what we've learned about trump cultists is that echo chambers are fabulous.
Yeah it's a lot of fun. I had a few adults that were there the whole time, but then a bunch of other neighbors/friends wandered in and out throughout the night. Probably had a total of about 10 different people hanging out.
It can also fire up your base.
Maybe. But it's asymmetrical at best.
What idiot decided the democrats needed to pull their punches while trump and the republicans get to call america garbage?
No one. Look how fired up you are after Trump's comment. This is my point. It was a dumb mistake for his campaign, just like Biden's is a dumb mistake for Harris' campaign.
Trump is a fascist. Period. Full stop. Anyone who supports him is also a fascist. And fascists are garbage human beings.
Again, you're mixing up your feelings about how true the statement is with whether or not it was a good move for the campaign. These are two entirely separate things.
Besides which, they were already out voting. They can’t vote any harder.
This flies in the face of all conventional wisdom. Campaigns are out canvassing heavily in swing states (I know, I live in one of them, among very politically active people who are doing it), with the intent of making sure people get out to vote. You seem to be viewing Trump supporters as some kind of borg who all do the same exact thing, but it's simply not true. There are people who are lukewarm about this and may or may not vote. You don't want to give them any ammunition to fire up these people to encourage them to vote. That's the whole point.
Normally I wear a costume, but mine fell apart this year.
Lol I'm definitely doing this next year
The reason it is dumb is because, with a close race, getting your base out to vote is important, and this can be used as a rallying cry. It's just like insulting your opponent before some sporting even and it's used a locker room fodder to rule people up.
We learned in 2016 with the deplorable comments, which was accurate, was a mistake. This is a mistake too, no matter how accurate you think it is.
At my house we get north of 200 kids every year it's decent outside. Sometimes over 250. We're talking about a kid every minute for the 3.5 hours we do it.
I just set up a table outside, invite a few friends over, drink some beers and give kids candy as they show up. Fuck having to answer the door every minute for 3.5 hours.
My older neighbors complained that the kids don't have to come up to the front door and are skipping their house because I sit outside. I felt a little guilty, but honestly sitting outside (it it's cold I get a fire pit going, not tonight tho) is much nicer. One older couple followed my lead this year and agreed. So I'm over it now. Welcome to the new world.
