Mate, 'just the garbage comment'.

The president of the country just called 100's of millions of the people in the country he is president of 'Garbage'.

By any metric he's just done one of the most stupid things I've ever seen any politician do

Absolute nothing burger. Only people upset by that comment, like yourself, would not have been moving their vote from Trump for any reason whatsoever at this point.

Mate the comment doesn't upset me whatsoever, I've never even been to the USA never mind live there.

It's just an amazingly stupid and potentially very damaging thing to have said on the eve of an election.

When Hilary said a similar thing it damaged her badly in 2016, this could well be a repeat of that

Won’t move the dial one bit.

Funny how everything Biden has said for the last year has been the product of a diseased, degenerative mind, but this one comment is a clear headed reflection of his views towards the electorate.

It’s a media storm, and just reflects that the parties are held to different standards.

"Could" is working hard there.

Cut to the numerous times Trump has referred to those who do not support him as "garbage". Yes, the exact same word. As well as "scum". And "evil". And "the enemy within".

Also, note that the POTUS nearly immediately issued a clarifying statement. The former POTUS does not issue such nor does he apologize.
 
Human nature mate, people get used to stuff the more they are exposed to it

It's why Trump gets away with loads he says, it's also why Bidens dementia was able to be written off as 'its just good 'ol Joe making another gaff' for so long.

Because people expected these things and it made less impact because of that.

But this comment can't be written off as a simple gaff - by god they should try to though.
WIthout trying to derail this thread - it is similar to ISrael - Palestine. People with no affiliation to either continue to 'stand with Israel' despite everything we are witnessing and have done for decades. They are just used to saying it.

People who continue to vote Tory also, after the last 14 years of devastation.

It feels like the comment itself would not move the dial but the media reaction to it will!
 
Didn't Trump propose a 'replacement' plan in 2020 for the ACA which passed responsibility for it onto the individual states via a block grant rather than the federal government controlling it?
tbf he did have a concept, it never got near congress though. the 'concept' was to turn federal healthcare funding into block grants.

The block grant system would create discrepancies in healthcare coverage across states. Some states might allocate their funds to comprehensive coverage, while others might choose more limited plans, leading to unequal access to healthcare across the country. Terrible idea that'll impact the most vulnerable Americans.
 


What's wrong with being gay?

Firstly absolutely nothing .

Secondly what an incredibly weird segment , Just odd. I used to know a lad who spent all his time accusing everyone of being gay , using slightly more offensive terminology. It was what he viewed as his go to ‘insult ‘ . Anyone want to guess how this anecdote ends ?

He's a Log Cabin Republican?
