I believe it was Vance - before he sold his soul.

Edit: "I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole like Nixon who wouldn't be that bad (and might even prove useful) or that he's America's Hitler,"
Yeah indeed you’re right, spot on

My point was trump is throwing around they’re calling me hitler because it distracts from what they are calling him and I suspect because he knows he fits or at best/worst is pretty close to that description .
 
If you missed the Ukraine thread, he lives in Russia and is heavily influenced by his Russian wife and mother in law. and is team Putin. I have no doubt that there are MAGA hats in the house.

Lol ok mate.

Think you seem to believe many people in Russia actually care that much who the US president is, those that have shared an opinion said they'd rather have Harris as she's weak as a matter of interest though.

Anyway I'll let you toodle off back to the Ukraine thread mate, let you work on getting yourself up to 5,000 posts there.

Never once spoken to my mother in law about politics btw - she has zero interest, even got her husband to turn off the news as don't want my kids subjected to that 24/7 when they're there. Her family name is Ukrainian origin btw - just to show how interwoven the two nations actually are/were.

Anyways this isn't the Ukraine thread and I won't be going back there, so keep my name out of it cheers kid.
 
I disagree that the U.S. is beyond repair - if Harris can win then it'll go the same way as here - the right will fracture after the Trump gamble, and the "reasonable" side will win out - and we'll be back to a fairly centrist round of elections in 4 years time. If Trump wins then I fear deeply on who comes next, and the power they might inherit (n)

The right/the republican party is fractured already, loads hate Trump for obvious reasons but Trump has managed to get the free thinker neckbeard gang, the free thinker muscle bros and the critical theory single thinking man who may not have voted, or may have voted for the Libertarian parties

The left is probably the most fractured it's ever been(?), particularly with their supporting and active involvement in the current genocide

I think an issue here could be more republicans will vote blindly for their party than the possible democrats

"The left" is perpetually fractured. Like always.

"The left" is actually the most together it's been in recent memory, because there is such a clear and obvious opponent that is terrifying to any sane American. The Never Trumpers were thrown out of GOP and those still standing after 2016 and saw the light after his administration and the events leading up to and including Jan 6 has put even more moderates into "the left" as you call it
 
Yet you're cool with Trump as President

Speaks volumes
Not overly mate, I don't like either candidate whatsoever.

But right now the US is at its lowest ever ebb of serious politicians, why I don't know, but looking around it's worrying. You have a group of octogenarian fossils, and the younger generation seems vacuous at best

Ok, I guess I meant more centre right or something for the democrats. I don't think I've seen so many people against them, all because of the support of Israel
 
Yes, but it is obviously a very big issue right now plus people have access to a lot more information about it now more than they used to
Yes. It is a big issue

And people do have access to more information. Some of it legit, some not

I still don't understand how Israel can be an issue in this election, given one side will likely keep on keeping on American policy, and the other will, in the words of their dear leader, be more-pro Israel anti-Arab than anyone ever, the most pro Israel administration the world has ever seen, believe me. Bigly
 
How about the 40% of the electorate who would never vote for a Republican no matter what their policies were?

Is that not programming also?
I don’t really think so. Anytime some sort of political “Pepsi challenge” is conducted where people are simply asked about policies without any attachment to candidates, people who are self-described staunch Republicans time and again side with Democratic policy proposals. Yet they would NEVER consider walking into a voting booth and casting a vote for someone with a D beside their name.

The 40% of the electorate that would never vote for a Republican are so far removed from anything the Republican Party is proposing at this point that there is exactly zero intersection between the circles on that Venn diagram, so of course they aren’t voting for them.
 
Aye but that’s his view on the Russia/ Ukraine conflict and and it’s kept in that thread. You’re prancing around the forum with an imbecilic avatar that certain people will take great offence to when there’s absolutely no call for it.

Do you want me to have a Hamas or Hezbollah avatar instead? Don't bother answering that i know what the answer is!
