I'm sure pretending the blue candidate isn't complicit in genocide is a great strategy to convincing more voters.
My Mexican immigrant coworker believes that if Kamala gets elected that immigrants will be deported but also immigrants are getting too much free money and food stamps and things like that. He really has bought into some kind of weird belief that Donald Trump is a better candidate. He can't vote because he's not a citizen. I think he's just pissed off because he works two jobs and sees people who get free stuff and don't come here legally as lazy.
Spotless is a gross way to describe her career as a prosecutor.
It all depends how you define a spot. Particularly the same spot test should be applied to both candidates.
Don't know why you're being downvoted, Harris isn't perfect but with Trump on the other side not much is required of her to be the best option.
"Pedophile" is missing from the trump one...
It appears a good chunk really loves the racism thingy
It shouldn't be, but I feel like this is such a delicate thing.
Like, Trump is obviously racist, but his base sees themselves in him and when he is labeled racist, it projects to them; they're labeled racist too. They "know" they aren't racist and it's a strong accusatory word along the lines of being called a pedophile and that instantly brings up defenses and basically kills any chance of swaying their opinion. Besides, if we were wrong calling "them" (their projection from trump) racist, how could we possibly be right about calling Trump racist?
Should we give a shit what these people think? Really wish we didn't have to, but the world isn't fair and just enough at the moment to disregard the nuance here.
I might not leave the country, but I’ll have to leave my state. I wonder if next Friday after work I’ll need to load up everything I can fit in my car and drive as far north as possible. It’s terrifying that my rights as a transgender human vanish will vanish overnight where I live. I’ve heard of bounties in Odessa.
Knowing that most of the people I live and work around are happily voting for a child rapist has broken my brain. The folks protesting at the Planned Parenthood (abortion is already illegal here) are going to vote for a man that’s probably paid for multiple abortions. It’s a sickness I can’t fathom.
Its sickening what is happening to this country, that you even feel the need to flee in such a way, but it is a realistic concern. There are people who very much want carte blanche to harm trans people, and if Trump is elected they may get that cover, its vile.
Undecided voters are the dumbest people on the face of the Earth.
I disagree. Trumpers are definitely worse.
say what you want about the tenets of trumpism, Dude, at least it's an ethos!
(jokes aside I am no contact now with any of my relatives who expresses any pro trump support. I'm trans and fuck you, fam!)
Apparently you’re a nazi if you vote for either, so you should just not vote
- totally not an astroturfer
With a more representative electoral system, we could have more then two buttons. First-past-the-post voting is mathematically flawed and will always result in a two party system, which is why we must replace it as soon as we can.
Yall believe in democracy right?
Undecided voter = person who cannot discern truth
I don't understand how there are undecided voters this election... I understand trump voters. Ride or die republicans, bigots, wealthy people that want more money for themselves. They are fucked up, but they make sense.
But how are you undecided? What are you weighing up. If you're not in the aforementioned groups, what single positive thing does trump offer?
Undecided voters aren’t undecided because they’re oblivious to what’s going on. They’re undecided because they live in a swing state, so they have more power than the average voter, and most importantly they want something. They see the candidates campaigning specifically for them. They’re hoping to be offered a promise they actually care about.
And yet the things wanted are being pretty directly ignored to hopefully find other no voters in swing states and rag them out to vote.
It's been a pretty obvious back and forth of requests and then ignoring them and trying to offer something else. I don't know how people are confused about what is happening.
what does the guy who's openly threatening the future of American democracy think about my taxes
He thinks your taxes are too low and billionaires taxes are too high!
