i'm placing my bets on:

  • israel shooting down a passenger plane
  • tim walz pedophile allegations
  • kamala drug scandal
[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

I also think Israel will shoot down a passenger plane or sink an US/NATO Navy boat

[-] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 month ago

Israel sinking a US Navy boat off the Gazan coast and blaming Hamas in a false flag to draw the US into a ground war in Gaza would be entirely within their MO

  • Larger war in middle east.

  • GOP succeeds in getting NE electoral votes as winner takes all and ME doesn't because they're out of session. The election is tied 269 electoral votes and the supreme court gives it to Trump even though he loses the popular vote.

  • A third assassination attempt, this time Trump walks under a piano suspended over the sidewalk. A cleaver rascal by the name of JD Vance walks past the guys hoisting the piano in full drag and winks at them. Our hapless boys forget to hold the rope as they awooooooga!. Trump doesn't die from the baby grand dropping on him, but he is unable to serve his term due to his mouth being full of piano keys instead of teeth. Vance becomes president.

  • The US balkanizes, still no healthcare. The treats still flow but they're all bootleg.

  • Cis women have to wear arm bands to signal when they're ovulating. Taylor Swift is assigned as Elon Musk's girlfriend, she is never heard from again.

  • The Lt. governor of NC starts producing porn.... It's really gross.

Larger war in middle east.

I read that as "larger war in the midwest" at first and was very confused.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I have my bet that Trump will win. Funniest timeline and all, if I can twist the lathe’s arm I’d love to see a Democratic majority house and senate so it totally paralyzes the genocide factory and it devolves into pork-on-pork violence.

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

This is probably the best outcome, if the US is too busy with internal issues, they usually leave the Global South alone for a time.

Unfortunately, the death machine is well designed to not need congressional input to operate.

Third time's the charm

[-] AvocadoVapelung@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

trump fires vance and taps eric adams to replace him

[-] someone@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

I don't know what event (whether real or false-flag) will happen, but I think that it will be used as an excuse for an information-control crackdown well beyond what we've seen so far. The American political establishment has been freaking out about middle east news not being under their control.

[-] ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago

Trump is assassinated but it's too late to take him off the ballots, so wins the sympathy vote

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

Zombie trump for president

Can someone please tell me where this whole October surprise thing comes from? I'm so confused

[-] Hexboare@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

The 1980 October Surprise theory refers to an allegation that representatives of Ronald Reagan's presidential campaign made a secret deal with Iranian leaders to delay the release of American hostages until after the election between Reagan and President Jimmy Carter, the incumbent

This is the origin of the phrase, referring to events that happen in the month before the US elections that can impact voting.

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

As revenge, dems should on election day just put Jimmy Carter as their main candidate.

[-] Wertheimer@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

He'd provide much-needed age balance to the ticket, but they would never

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

Donnie junior claims to have found massive amounts of correspondence from Kamala’s DA and AG days proving she discriminated against a large array of ethnicities, but it turns out he just didn’t understand what the phrase “with extreme prejudice” means.

[-] Guamer@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

Is there any "surprise" that could actually hurt Trump?

[-] Sasuke@hexbear.net 23 points 1 month ago

maybe..?

spoilerthe-doohickey

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

No there's nothing that Trump could do that would cause them to not vote for him.

It's gonna be some pearl clutching bullshit about kamala and it'll probablly work too lol.

All the people who have been telling us to hold our nose and vote for kamala despite the whole genocide thing are gonna say they don't know if they can vote for somebody who smokes pot or some bulkshit like that.

[-] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 month ago

I can excuse genocide but i draw the line at smoking weed.

You can excuse genocide?

This month, U.S. security agencies released an unusual statement saying Iranians sent material stolen from the former president’s campaign to people linked to Biden’s reelection team (which later morphed into Harris’ campaign). The statement said there is no sign the recipients responded.

lmao khomeini solidarity biden-supervised

[-] Sasuke@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

oh, so that's what the JD dossier stuff is about. i saw mentions earlier today of the iran hacking but it sounded so stupid i refused to look into it lmao

[-] Crucible@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

Can't wait to learn that the original Iranian document is just the transcript from the Vance episodes of the Dollop

[-] ColonelKataffy@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago

hamas enacts another Al Aqsa flood

the zionist entity war crimes so blatantly hard that the international-community-1 covers for it in a way that enrages its citizens and we see widespread unrest

JD Vance says something terrible

Joe Biden dies

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago

No predictions atm, just wanted to say I right clicked the shit out of that meme.

[-] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago

Meme? This is a sophisticated political cartoon!

[-] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

Biden's dog mauls one of the candidates - either party - or their vice so badly that they have to drop out and Hillary Clinton steps in to fill the void.

[-] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

Big Arrow Offensive that sees large swathes of territory fall to the Russians

Receipts of JD vance in a gay relationship.

[-] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 month ago

I think a date to keep a close eye on is october 7th. Israel will probably do something horrible that day.

[-] Shaleesh@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

Trump's mental health wanes to the point that he has a total breakdown, quits the race, and the ticket becomes Vance/some intern that he picked in a panic the night of Trump's resignation.

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

In hindsight, Sasuke would be pretty based if he didn't suck
