Yet another refugee who washed up on the shore after the great Reddit disaster of 2023

Direct message

And there you have the proof that all his “alternative to both Biden and Trump” was bullshit. He was only ever a spoiler for Democrats, so he’s dropping out because they realized he was taking more votes from Trump. Those guys just can’t do anything on the level.

Same price where I am in California, except they don’t have the polish dogs anymore and I really miss them.

My take is he just didn’t want to answer anymore questions. Probably not planned in advance, he was just making an excuse to get out of there.

Wow, how could anyone sit there and think, “Yes, this is the place to get closer to god?”

I love that applause she got, and how clearly, genuinely she was touched by it.

I struggled a bit selecting a candidate in the 2020 primary, but ultimately voted for Warren. I think she would have done well, but I was fine voting for Biden in the general, and so happy with all he accomplished.

The two good things about high ratings are:

  1. It shows engagement is high
  2. It’s the kind of metric that Trump cares deeply about

But yes, polls, ratings, news articles, and all those things didn’t matter, just election votes matter.

Reading what he said in the article, that’s pretty close to the truth. He wasn’t saying that he hates Harris particularly, but that whomever his opponent is, he hates that person and he’s going to be mean.

That’s a rational view, but not born out by past experience. Sadly, there are apparently a huge number of horrible Americans who still think Trump is exactly right.

Hillary got flak for calling Trump supporters a “basket of deplorables,” but in hindsight that was a kind way of saying it.

Agreed, and it’s sad. I mean, I work at a highly technical engineering company. Everyone has at least a BS, and this guy was probably in his 60s with 30+ years of experience. Yet here he was repeatedly farting by a woman because they had a disagreement. It shows you that age and education don’t guarantee maturity.
