Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 5

[Mr_Moogle]

Bottom line it’s got nothing to do with cheaper eggs. It’s all about not being able to accept an educated black female president. That they choose a convicted felon, known sexual abuser and conman extraordinaire over an educated black woman speaks volumes.

I disagree. Dems could have run a white man and it wouldn't have made any difference. Their goose was cooked as soon as inflation ramped up a couple of years back. Even if Biden had dropped out earlier and they had held a primary, I doubt it would have mattered. It's hard to sell yourself as a change candidate when you're the incumbent.

And it’s 2 x now re educated successful woman being overlooked for him.

Unfortunately also means no female Democrat candidate for at least another couple of elections as it’s (wrongly) political suicide with the nations intellect, or lack thereof.

You do realise inflation is a global thing and also the USA is effectively the best nation in the world at getting it under control? Interest rates now falling in response and 70% chance of another cut next month.

And your thoughts on tariffs IMPROVING inflation?

Why don’t US voters understand the global context? Having visited 30+ states I was just dumbfounded by the lack of global knowledge of so so many people I met. “What language do you speak in Australia”. “Do you visit your neighbouring countries in Europe much?”. I convinced more than one person, often young ladies at bars but this was 20 years ago, that most families do own a kangaroo AND the Govt had “special military-grade” kangaroos that would deliver the postal mail to your letterbox. No questioning. Just acceptance and “in awe” of these special military grade kangaroos.

The amount we know about the US is 10-50x what most average Americans would know about us. Even in their own country, they visit on AVERAGE 6 states only in their lifetime as the stat provided during my travels

And that’s how Trump intends to keep them. Imagine talking about disbanding the department of education. Teaching the Bible as being more important than actual history.

Voters will always blame the current government for current issues. You can't expect the average voter to understand the nuances of inflation, supply chains, stimulus, and all the other components that go into the covid hangover. All they understood was price shock and blamed the current government.

Will Trump make it any better. I doubt it. Strong odds he makes it worse.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Nah.

The people not voting for Harris on the basis of sex/gender were always voting Trump.

There was definitely a protest vote but how much did misogyny play apart. But what's done is done. Mistakes were made by the Harris Walz campaign.

It's clear the other thread still doesn't get it. (Us election) Still haven't bothered to reply to my points. Just the same story of trolling. Sad really. They post ok in the footy threads but the political ones the orange man has them losing their minds.

you have to understand, they dont care about policy or points, they've spent years hiding their racism and bigotry.

Trump sets them free, they can be their true self. I understand why they are excited, they have a place they can openly hate in now.

Because we all know they hide it from people in real life...
