2024 US Presidential Election

Nobody like that is getting anywhere near to the Democratic nomination. You can be sure the democrats will rig the primaries or outright kill such a person.

This is the party that subverted the will of the democratic electorate and put Hillary, one of the most publicly hated politicians even by her own voter base…and threw Bernie under the bus

They’ll do it again.
Bernie absolutely would have won in a fair primary, but yep they are rigged worse than the 2020 election. RFK jr said he would run, and I bet he could win the nomination in a fair primary. Even with the establishment making him out to be some far right kook all these years. Fuck he would make such a great president too, he would know exactly where to target the minute he got in. But even if he won the primary, the CIA would go ahead and finish off that bloodline.
 
I prefer trump over destantis. Trump is just a greedy conman manipulating stupid racists in America to get power….I don’t think he has actual beliefs or ideals. Trump is not delusional in the sense that he believes he is doing gods work. Desantis actually believes in god and Christians and Muslims are extremely dangerous nasty religions and I’d rather have atheist trump over Christian destantis

Ppl that operate thinking they are doing gods will have no bottom to the level of evil they will resort to to achieve "gods" aims


Desantis is a legit Christian facist with very authoritarian and violent proclivities this is a guy that would legit gas ppl if he had the power….I’d rather have the rude and selfish Trump than that.

Why do you think desantis is better than trump?
Also that establishment we all hate like desantis, and hates drunpf with their entire being.
 
Wow, the rare Aaron Rupar post that isn't false. Him and that Rex Chapman guy are in like the top 5 Twitter accounts that constantly spread misinfo while bitching about Twitter "allowing" misinfo, lol. It's pretty entertaining
 
They verified it was Ashly bidens diary. And she says her father used to shower with her as a child, and that she thinks it’s why she’s fucked up now. It’s real, so it is what it is 🤷🏿‍♂️
I think it’s fair to say that both Biden and trump are evil to the core. It’s tiresome to hear everyone argue about who is the bigger rapist.

That’s how sad the state of affairs are "the guy I voted for rapes less than your guy" - this isn’t a sign of a thriving society
 
Reading and listening to unsubverted scientists is really the only way to be informed when there is total agency capture imo
Yea but you have to actually understand the science for yourselves, otherwise you’re just taking them at their word.

Most ppl, even scientists trying to understand details in another area of science than what they have experience with…aren’t going to invest the tons of hours to really understand it.

At the end of the day most ppl are just deciding who is trustworthy and believing them.

…the options are the entire global media vs. Facebook shitposters. Choose one

Idk there are many dissident scientists speaking out. They are very open in their reasoning and process.

I dunno, DeSantis seems to me like a Dubya 2.0, or a Mitt Romney 2012 2.0 figure or something. Just a cutout Republican establishment figure who opportunistically adopted some Trump's "edginess" and emphasis on culture war bullshit, but who otherwise is gonna be a "team player" with the Republican establishment
 
Why do you think desantis is better than trump?
Because I honestly don’t think Trump can win reelection, just like in 2020, and I cannot stomach Biden a day more than the end of his four year term.

So I guess I legitimately think any GOP candidate who isn’t trump would be better by virtue of being a runnable candidate.

I think you could be right, if they nominate an establishment republican contender they may allow for a fair election, as a pressure release type thing. I don’t think it matters in the end, another Biden term would help accelerate things, so I’m sort of leaning that direction.

There is very little disagreement among the scientific community about most empirically testable things (ie not theoretical physics).

It’s because science is objective and even if you don’t like something everyone in a niche field still agrees it’s true. If you said otherwise all the scientist would know that you have no idea what you’re talking about. It’s equivalent to someone insisting the sky is green and not blue

You can’t lie about or slant things among other scientists…you quickly get realized as a fraud by the other scientists. There are no opinions…everyone in the scientific community knows the same truths

Now how scientists choose to paint things and go on podcasts like Joe Rogan and speak to the public that doesn’t know an atom from a cell…sure they can slant things in any direction you want; but it’s just the perception of a viewer with a toddlers understanding of things that is what is perceived to be anomalous, it’s not that things are actually anomalous

I don’t think that. He’s attempting to make ppl register their political affiliation at universities ( students and faculty). He’s trying to create a registry if anyone that writes about him in the media and prosecute them.

Schools are basically having book burnings. It’s illegal to speak about a period or that gay ppl exist in schools.

He’s at war with fucking Disney world. Disney.

So much shit is getting banned in Florida. He’s attempting to ban social media for all children.

Romney and W are no where near this authoritarian and these aren’t just cute trump copying gimmicks.

Desantis is a really hardcore authoritarian….I’ve never seen anything like it to be honest

Scientific ‘consensus’ and the peer review process are so flawed I personally have zero faith in them. If Covid taught us anything it’s that the scientific ‘consensus’ is not to be trusted. All of these major agency that claim authority are completely captured. But I get that people still want to cling to these things, for their own comfort. These people lied about literally every aspect of the Covid pandemic, and once proven wrong they just double and triple down. Credentialism seems to be a way the establishment press gate keeps, but that only works on folx still bought into the system imo
 
Why do you think desantis is better than trump?

Because Trump wants to overturn the Constitution in order to keep himself in power. because Trump incites his base to violence (like right when he threatened "death and destruction" if he is arrested). Because Trump has already left a legacy in the Republican party of denying election results any time you lose, and has laid the groundwork for undermining democracy.

Don't get me wrong, I agree that he has no actual moral convictions, he's just trying to get and maintain power. Desantis is dangerous, 100%. But Trump is a destabilizing force and I don't know if American can withstand another 4 years. I'm not even convinced that the first 4 years wasn't the gut wound that slowly kills us.

The DNC is awful, too. No way they let anyone in who would actually be good for us.

Basically, we're fucked. :\
 
It is beyond parody and memes for me at this point. I don't know how anyone can take him seriously at this point, in any fashion.

It makes me realize how fucked we are, and how "simple" the average person is.

Yeah it's literally insane. I can't even believe that anybody still supports that clown.

I do not think he would win if he was the candidate. But if he did, god help us all. Seriously, the man is extremely dangerous, but I think his shenanigans went too far and he lost too many supporters to be able to come close to winning.


I hope so much that we don't have to choose whether to vote for Biden or not. Dare to dream...

Yea the whole overthrowing the government thing is pretty serious issue with trump.

But trump didn’t do that by himself so I don’t think it’s fair to excuse the rest of republicans from what trump spearheaded

The Republican Party was complicit and as a whole they attempted to trash the constitution. Trump could die tonight and republicans are going to try it again without him.

Desantis is almost more dangerous because he’s not going to fuck it all up in ordering some pathetic display of his followers to attack the congress.l and draw a bunch of attention
He’s going to methodically and quietly turn America into a theocratic state that is a living hell for anyone that isn’t white or Christian. Massive incarceration etc.

I think destantis is more likely to achieve his way of destroying America than trump would. And trumps a few years from dying…but desantis, if he gets a foothold we’ve got 40 years of him to deal with after
