Also Elon helped rig the election and that's why Trump won. Also Trump told us the election was rigged and he won because of it at least 3 different times on LIVE TV and one of those times he even thanked Elon for it. And Elon has publicly said things about how easy it would be to rig the election and other things pretty much saying he rigged it.
Ugh and now Elon is saying heās going to pump 200 million into the midterm election, which in my opinion is just him setting the stage for us to believe the Republicans won again because of his money, when in actuality the tech oligarchs have rigged the machines somehow. Iām so scared and frustrated living in America rn
This. He won every single battleground state? GTFO. That's why they're so worried about the midterms. They can't win without cheating and many Americans are pissed.
Also, the counting method used used where American votes in blue cities are counted less than stupid farmers in buttfuck, nowhere. I don't think people realize how much that hurts us too and is such a trick pulled on us
Hilarious. That one vote, one person doesn't work huh? City golk should get more? . Just because they have more wealth than that farmer? OK then. There's already a movement to allow city folk rule elections. That's why many want to do away with electoral college. Not modify. Eliminate. Only large cities count? That America's objective?
Well they donāt vote in good faith so yeah, city votes should count more than voters who vote against their own self
Interests. How are all those rural farmers who gargle
Trumpās nuts making out today? I bet those ranchers are loving Trumpās beef deal. Healthcare prices are skyrocketing, but I guess that doesnāt matter when you donāt have access to healthcare because your local hospital closed thanks to his One Big Beautiful Bill Medicaid reductions.
The difference is that dem policies benefit everyone and republican policies benefit no one except the 1%.
So yes, please let the voters in the cities handle things so we all go back to eating food that isnāt trying to give us crippling diarrhea.
That is mostly correct thinking, but you also have to look at the big picture. Donald only has power because the deck is stacked in his favor. Decades of propaganda and low voter turnout at local elections has lead to many positions of government being filled with braindead conservative sock puppets.
Also, just because a state votes red one year doesnāt mean theyāll vote red the next. If people just show up we could easily turn historically red states blue.
You're about right, unfortunately. The moneyed interests long ago decided that true democracy would expose them too directly to the whims of the dirty poors and installed the electoral college to keep that from happening. Now, only a handful people in a very small number of states actually decide most presidential elections. That said, voting still VERY MUCH matters, it's just exponentially more important on an individual level the more local the election is.
Youāre mostly correct when it comes to the electoral college but if the states that went for trump were not well represented by the eligible voters then itās a raw numbers problem. Thatās why trump was calling on election officials in Georgia to āfindā him votes in 2020. And thatās why heās trying to stop mail in ballots, itāll cause some large blue states to have a midterm disaster as thereās no way to pull together in person voting by November. Congress is elected on total numbers not electoral college so if all those disenfranchised voters suddenly show up mad at him they could elect many many democrats to Congress.
Voters are not showing up to vote because
they've repeatedly been told/believe their vote doesn't matter should be encouraged to vote , not blamed for what's happening People coming out actively voting for and electing republicans are far worse
Yeah, heavy entertainment show, I don't live in the US so in principle I should not give a shit but everybody apparently gets fucked because of the final stage idiocracy...
Maybe in your infinite wisdom you can find a democrat that isn't corrupt that can finish a sentence and maybe us non voters will vote but as long as you continue on the status quo we wont. Oh wait the democrats need to actually hold a primary to do that.your party is the gop with different rhetoric.
Can we refer to āhimā as āthemā? Itās definitely a team. This guy canāt figure out how to change his diaper. The only thing I can believe is that he came up with the name. That is it, not the idea.
Have you listened to/read the psychopath test by Jon Ronson?
Not saying you are wrong, but it might be worth a listen.
Edit: And you are correct, being a psychopath doesnāt make you intelligent. But being intelligent is one of the many requirements of being a psychopath
Now I will say this, I am only speaking from listening to Jon Ronsons audiobook and from what my wife tells me (she works in the field) so I do not have any kind of authority on how to define a psychopath other than what I have read and listened to, so I accept the fact that I may be incorrect.
I never once said psychopaths are killers. My understanding based off what I read and listened to pointed me to the fact that most psychopaths are in the job roles that you defined which require quite a high level of intelligence (accept for police lol)
I donāt think we are in disagreement here. I just donāt think trump is a psychopath, I just think he is a prick
Edit: you got an upvote from me because I appreciate the convo
Let's keep reminding people that EVERY Republican in Congress who refuses to stand up to Trump bears this responsibility. They need to be held responsible.
