Current Affairs 2024 POTUS race

[Wizard]

great post!

It’s just so annoying that none of them will ever talk about Trump’s policies they think are much better than Harris. It’s all identity politics.

No, It's not a fair bet.

You use one or two threads on this forum to talk nonsense and wind people up.

I post on various sub forums on this forum.
I use it for Everton news and chats
I read the posts in the ale house.
I pay a subscription fee.
I've been posting here for 15 years (christ!)

It's an Everton Forum Emir, They're a storied football club from the north west of England who've spent longer in the top flight than any other club.

It's a fair bet. If Kamala wins the popular vote, that's the end of me on this place and many people on this thread will be glad to see the back of me and you become a hero on here.

Plus, I've been here for about 9 years so you have been here for 6 years longer but in the grand scheme of things it's not much of a difference.

Your initial response displayed insane amount of confidence, so why can't you back it up like a man?

I’m also not from the US. But what happens in the US will affect us here in the UK. You appear to be basing your views on personality politics than actual policies.

I was just interested in whether you had a position on policies specifically rather than the politician. You clearly don’t.

I do have opinions on policies, but they are not the main things im forming my opinions on.

I’m worried about how Trump will deal with Putin and potentially sacrifice Ukraine. I’m worried about the Gazans who he has made it pretty clear he has no regard for and what that means for the Middle East in general. Biden/Harris have not been great on this admittedly but there will be way more chance of some sort of peace in the Middle East than what will happen with Trump.

Starting with this. You think there's more chance of peace with Harris? Despite the fact Trump didnt start any new conflicts and since he left office, everything has gone south, including the withdrawal from Afghanistan, which was disgusting.

I’m worried about women’s rights in the US even though they don’t directly affect me. I’m worried about healthcare in the US given his approach to ACA.

Women's rights. I assume you mean specifically Abortions. Trump said he believes it should be up to states. He hasnt threatened bans, although he is consistently accused of doing exactly that. I certainly don't agree with extreme late term abortions up to 9 months, other than when it relates to the main 3 exclusions, which is exactly Trumps stance as well. Hardly extreme.

I also think him teaming with RFK Jr on making food etc healthier in the 1st place is sensible. But he won't get any credit for his attempts at bipartisan unity across the parties because that doesn't go with the narrative.

I’m worried about legal immigrants in the US being victimised and used as a tool for him to gain support. Mass deportations on day 1.

At least you said Illegal, and didnt just leave it out like most race grifters. The illegal part is the big issue, and 2m to 10m minimum is an insane uptake. Siding with Harris on this polocy is literally mental.

I’m worried about the UK having to deal with him and his isolationist policies given we’ve already distanced ourselves from the EU. I’m worried what he will do to NATO.

The Uk has its own issues, i dont think you can blame Trump for that 1. But there is always the possibility we could benefit from that if a deal is to be made.

I do hate Trump, but I am also very much looking at this from a policy point of view.

You hate Biden and Harris but haven’t offered anything other than you think one of them is old (who won’t be President anyway) and the other you think is a “phony, flip flopping liar”.

Come back to me when you have an opinion on policies rather than just not liking someone for who they are.

You hate Trump, i dont trust Harris. She is a phoney, she does change up her accent depending on audience. She can't give a straight answer. She agitates and did so with Biden before he picked her as a DEI choice (called him racist, then best buds, then stabbed him in the back). Now she's calling Trump, and by extension, half the country, fascists and Nazis. Those terms have nearly lost all meaning because they are so frequently used when actually unwarranted.

When have LEGAL immigrants ever been victimized? Trump is probably more pro-legal migration than the Kamala/Democrats.

He seems to be painting his face a deeper orange the last week or so. I wonder if it appeals to the Trumpets.

It's odd.

A crowd so worried about trans and drag is slavishly devoted to a man who wears more makeup, has a bigger "pad", and larger breasts than his female political counterpart.

you think the US born child of an illegal immigrant has never been victimized?

also you know immigrants who have applied for asylum are legal right?

And what about the thousands of legal Haitians in Springfield OH who were vilified by trumps lies?

and on and on and on

The notion legal immigrants are not victimized in the United States ignores 200+ years of history.

Mind-blowingly ignorant, honestly.

Breaking news: Jesusasaurus's notion of manhood is based on making weird wagers on a football forum. This is actually now starting to make more sense. Manhood begins with lying about having sex with an imaginary Swedish woman on family vacation, then it deviates into wasting money on Andrew Tate's scamiversity, then it does some weird pirouettes into no-sex-before-marriage, then on to the great replacement and dropping fertility levels before landing on a defining concept of manhood: staying or leaving an internet forum by flutter.

He said LEGAL you cretin, you can’t even read properly, no wonder you have such bizarre opinions. As I said, see a doctor.

Entitled white man v black women on the side of right (and the law). Fairly representative of the culture/caste battle in the United States.

Whole forum is wild at the minute. Even if you pop into a seemingly innocuous threads about barges you are met with total chaos.

Hadn't been in the takeover thread for a week, popped in there yesterday and saw Danny taking heads for absolutely no reason other than his own pleasure. It's a treat right now.

Hey there chief, if you can prove to me prehistoric dinosaurs co existed with humans, I'll leave the forum. Deal?

But duh media is so unfair and mean to Donnie T.
