“They’re cutting off the penises, they’re removing the breast. They’re blocking up the vaginas of the children that go to school there.”

All one day and the kid returns home.

Wouldn't want to be a security guard around the Pennsylvania or Arizona postal vote counting sites the day after the election.

All one day and the kid returns home.

The marvels of modern medicine. Operation Warp Speed.

Fox News is the best 24/7 NEWS channel in existence.
They'll cut through the bull and report on the election fair & balanced as always.

I just contributed to a cousin's reelection campaign for her Illinois State House of Representatives seat. I'm sure I mentioned her back in 2018 when she first ran and won as a Democrat in a formerly solid Republican district. She should have no trouble winning her fourth term.

She did briefly run for the Democratic nomination for US Senator from Illinois in 2020, but withdrew prior to the Democratic Primary when the incumbent senator, Dick Durbin, decided to run for reelection. I'm not sure if she'll go for it in 2026 if he retires. I can imagine her facing off with Ted Cruz in the Senate. He wouldn't have a chance.

Kayleigh is great but Trump is greater and he's going to make America and the world great again.

I thought Elon Musk was moving us all to Mars?

Making the world great again seems like overcapitalising

Yeah nah.

You're failing, xtremely.

 

[Blue1980]

I'd be interested in a source for this?

Well no it’s not word for word but the polls def think they are more on the money than 2016 and 2020 and 2022 is proof of that.

I guess we will see in a bit over a week.

 

[Xtreme]

Yeah nah.

You're failing, xtremely.

Well it's either that or Sky News!

CNN is boring.

 

[Blue1980]

I'm not confident. That partly is my psychological make up - expect the worst and you get less upset.

When I say confident it’s not much greater than 50-50, but whatever will be will be.

 

[Blue1980]

Vance jones from cnn made a good point on this the other night.

Democrats are telling people men are bad, white people are bad and billionaires are bad. This is why some white male billionaires are switching to trump. They think the democrats dont want them.

In saying that. Bezos is refusing to allow his editors to back harris not because he supports trump but because he is a coward and scared of retribution from trump. Trump Is threatening retribution against people in the media who have opposed him. Are you ok with that?

Dems are saying men are bad? I didn’t get the memo.

Are you suggesting the dems cosy up more to the billionaires? They do too much of that as it is.

I think bezos is in on the plan for tech billionaires like him to have a greater seat at the table in a trump administration and beyond.

I find I've been listening to 'The Rest Is Politics: US' podcast a lot the last few months.

Pretty insightful commentary on the election and 'Trumposphere'.

 

[Carringbush2010]

Well it's either that or Sky News!

CNN is boring.

Subject to opinion, you've failed again.

 

[Blue1980]

Extraordinary, batshit barmy, and utterly terrifying.

My thoughts exactly, it’s not exactly a conspiracy theory either, considering the stuff that has been said on the record by the likes of Musk, Thiel and Vance.

Didn't have a group of Muslim leaders endorsing Trump on my bingo card.

I’ll give it a try then, bro.

Listening to the great JDV on Theo Von's podcast while driving, one of the most profound comments made (and there were many!) was "some people are thinkers, some people are repeaters". Check the amount of X posts spammed here everyday to see who makes up the latter category!

Dude you were awarded the cut and paste badge…

 

[Jello_B]

Amazing that financial markets aren’t crashing, or it could just be bs…

 

[Spearman]

Wow, really? It's very simple.



Disingenuous. Whole swathes of media have never opposed Trump. Especially the largest media outlet of them all, the Fox empire. You appear to have wilfully ignored this in suggesting the media oppose Trump.



So, now someone suggests no media has called his mental illness, and you don't accept that because some media did indeed cover it. Correct of course, but hypocritical in the context of the earlier post.

The mask is slipping, dude.

People have asked and wondered why so many think the GOP are great at business and the economy. Look at Fox primetime programming, they have never criticized the conservatives on the economy. Hannity saying the Trump cuts didn't result in big numbers of job creation? lol. It just repeated and supported, overtly and tacitly that the right never does worse than Dem admins.
Remember the recent Fox reactions to Biden's economic numbers, "They're good, but...". Most people who consume non-conservative media do hear economic news in a much more 'fair and balanced' way.

 

[Spearman]

Nah. You've misunderstood Trump's plan. It's all the foreign economies that will make up the difference.

It's such a brilliant, simple plan that it's a wonder no-one has thought of it until Trump came along.

Should work a treat, just like his first term trickle down policy.

 

[Spearman]

Ignoring talkback radio, local/regional networks such as Sinclair, print media etc a bit there.

Spot on, Sinclair is the largest owner of TV stations, even after selling off or closing nearly half of what they held a few years ago.

and we can add a dollop of misinformation and disinformation as well. Bias is always there, always has been. Its the factual reliability of what is actually broadcast that is important.

It is crazy the market for political vodcasts and just how successful they've been in the Trump era.

The Rest Is Politics with Alistair Campbell and Rory Stewart is infinitely better, but yes, Katty Kay and Mooch are very watchable/listenable.
