This guy is toe-to-toe with Kamala in polls. How fucking insane.

He has said the sickest shit I’ve ever heard from a presidential candidate, yet, the reporting is easy beyond belief with Trump and media tries to reframe any Harris positive with passive language until it sounds like a problem.

They (media) are probably afraid that if Harris is elected, the news will become mundane and boring, unlike Trump, and their readership (and thus revenue) will drop.

The media has been beat up for decades as too liberal. Now, simply reporting the truth will make the accusations of bias stick even harder in conservative minds.

Pretty fucking mess we’re in, isn’t it?

Nobody who is undecided or voting for Trump reads the Atlantic. It’s like screaming into the void.

The morons pay taxes and have to be represented as well… It just sucks, that, apparently, it’s ~50% of the US.

There are a lot of racists in this country. They never went away, really… They just got shamed into (mostly) silence. Trump makes them feel brave again, because he’s just like them.

people give trump such a big platform his outreach is incomparable.

American politics are just sports for some people and “my team” will win no matter what because the other team “the libs” will lose! I gain satisfaction from people “losing”

Because a lot of people don’t care until it impacts them, because they’re a special rainbow and everyone else is the problem or not relevant in their eyes.

Remember “grab 'em by the pussy”? The crazy shit he says didn’t make any difference then either. Remember to vote.

That’s not even the worst of what he did. Let’s assume he was just joking about that and it was out of context

Remember during covid when he went into public view and literally said nonsense like using light to kill covid in the human body and that they were looking at using bleach or whatever to kill it in the body, whilst his team clearly were cringing in the background

That had to be the most awkward moment worldwide during covid (even more so than the fact that here in Australia, our right wing prime Minister, who had lots of secret portfolios didn’t order vaccines). It was literally like listening to a random druggo rambling and making stuff up.

And here in Australia, we now have politicians mimicking him.

I don’t fucking get it. I seriously fail to see how past events have lead us to be so complacent. I just want an answer but I know we won’t ever get a good one. A single scandal used to have the power to make an official resign, how the hell have we gotten here?

He will make rich people richer.

Those people control every aspect of what a large portion of the population see and hear from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to sleep.

Never in human history has a power that immense being controlled by the greediest and most corrupt group of our population.

It is inevitable that someone like him will be in control sooner (maybe in a couple weeks) or later. We’re at the bottom of the mountain watching a few boulders come down as the rest of the avalanche is roaring down the mountain.

Even if he loses (unlikely) they won’t stop because stopping isn’t an option.

Greed and Corruption. That’s all it is. There’s no other reason necessary.

I hope that helps you understand what’s going on a bit better. You won’t like it, no rational person does, but it’s the facts.

Trump does not admit defeat. He never has, he never will. Anyone could have done this at any time, it just took someone shameless enough to try.

I appreciate you bringing this up, but it still boggles my mind that we make any differentiation at all of someone’s worth based on where they are born.

Trump has talked about strong genes being the reason why some non Americans shouldn’t be allowed to enter…

If Trump takes any more shit out of Hitlers pkaybook, I guess he’s going to invade Norway to get heavy water plants for atom bomb production

While it shouldn’t affect their worth overall, it’s entirely reasonable for citizenship and military service should affect how much a specific country is willing to spend memorializing someone

More like, a US Presidential Candidate called an American a Mexican and it’s the media’s responsibility to report the truth.
