If only they'd listen!

You read my mind.
If Trump wins I'm looking forward to him ending the Russia-Ukraine war in one day, which he has promised to do repeatedly on the campaign trail. He's also vowed to deport millions of illegal immigrants within hours of getting into office. There's two big promises we can judge him on within days of taking power, as I'm sure they weren't just lies to get elected.

They go 1/2 Trump and 7/4 Harris for the presidency, which equates to approximately 60% 40% in Trump's favour.
I know which predictions I trust.
The brainless simpleton supporters are winning.
And so is the rapist
I'm so happy for you

I know the feeling.
The only thing we know for certain at this stage is that Trump will kick up a fuss if he loses again.
He is a big baby.
When you let brainless simpletons get some power, normal people suffer
"A pregnant teenager died after trying to get care in three visits to Texas emergency rooms.
It took 20 hours and three ER visits before doctors admitted 18-year-old Nevaeh Crain to the hospital as her condition worsened.
She's one of at least two women who have died under Texas' Republican-endorsed abortion ban. "
Never mind though, Trump is 'funny' so it's worth it
Funny like yesterday, when at a rally his microphone broke - so in front of thousands of idiots - he pretended to perform oral sex on it, like it was a penis.......
Weird, creepy, pervy old freak
This, on the other hand , is freaking hysterical...
"DJT stock's sudden crash wipes out $2.4 billion from Donald Trump's wealth in just 3 days"
"At the end of June, in the afterglow of a debate performance that would ultimately prompt President Joe Biden to end his campaign for reelection, Donald Trump startled his aides by announcing that he'd come up with a new nickname for his opponent.
"The guy's a retard. He's retarded. I think that's what I'll start calling him," Trump declared aboard his campaign plane, en route to a rally that evening, according to three people who heard him make the remarks: "Retarded Joe Biden."
The staffers present--and, within hours, others who'd heard about the epithet secondhand--pleaded with Trump not to say this publicly. They warned him that it would antagonize the moderate voters who'd been breaking in their direction, while engendering sympathy for a politician who, at that moment, was the subject of widespread ridicule. As Trump demurred, musing that he might debut the nickname at that night's event, his staffers puzzled over the timing. Biden was on the ropes. Polls showed Trump jumping out to the biggest lead he'd enjoyed in any of his three campaigns for the presidency. Everything was going right for the Republican Party and its nominee. Why would he jeopardize that for the sake of slinging a juvenile insult?"
I agree with Goodlad that lumping a lod of people as Morons or racists for the way they want to vote does the left no favours
There are shitbags on both sides and decent people on both sides
And why it still has to be boiled down to two ( supposedly ) polarised opposites is beyond me

That's the problem.
The vast majority of Americans are generational Red or Blue voters.
There is nothing like the volatility & variability we have here in Europe.
So really nice guys, like our absent friend DaButt (who is patently NOT a c**t) is 'forced' to vote for someone who most definitely is.
He often bemoaned the fact on these forums - but could never vote Democrat.
Couple that with the insane amount of money involved in running a campaign, any challenger party is dead in the water before they even start.
Hence the terrible system they're lumbered with.
But isn't that what we really have, a two party system? When was the last time The Liberals were in Government? over a hundred years ago, not counting The Libdems token coalition govt which conceded to the Tories on their policies. All the US have done is cut out the unnecessary slack. People tend to want This or That.
In Europe the multi party system doesn't work very well, leading to weak coalitions which can't agree on anything and break down, and have to do what the EU say anyway, (so aren't allowed to be too right wing, but some are starting to rebel against that, like we did). The EU has become a dictatorship like the ones in the unfree world.
I think I meant theres much more shifting of allegiances over here.
Your views on the EU are well documented - but from many people's point of view, the more they can do to quell the Right, the better - especially when up against Russian interference.
It's just a shame that, now we have a Labour government, we are not involved and thus can't lend a hand.

Is this what's known as breaking news?

I might just be wishy washy but I think I've voted for all the main three partys at one time or another, and the Lib Dems
I'll tell you who really annoys me though
Tucker Carlson!
I don't remember him being that Pro trump when he used to go to Grange Hill
