Excellent choice, I voted for Trump. It’'s absolutely imperative that we keep Harris from getting elected and voting for a third party instead of Harris helps to get Trump elected, but since I live in a swing state I didn’t want to take any chances and voted directly for Trump instead of indirectly.

Harris seriously needs to fire her campaign advisors. There are so many easy things she could do to easily win the presidency but for some reason she refuses to do them.

Taking a stand against genocide is just one of them and is so easy to do. She’d gain 10s of millions of Arab voters plus the 10s of millions of progressive voters she’s missing out on right now, and it would probably only cost her a few thousand moderate voters. Those voters probably aren’t even in swing states so who cares?

I don’t know why Harris is running such a stupid campaign or why she just doesn’t do the really easy thing that will absolutely guarantee that she easily wins the white house.

It absolutely blows my mind.

I like that they say “outdated” stereotypes like they used to be true but now they aren’t.

Come on people, keep your steroetypes current.

I’m not questioning his guilt, I’m questioning how someone possibly proves they didn’t make a post.

How the fuck is he supposed to prove he didn’t make those posts?

I love that the highlight of “the weave” is that “you don’t even mispronounce one word”.

Stong Abe Simpson “I am not a communist” vibes.

lol I guess I shouldn’t expect more from a country where the AFD is running away with elections

Why would they fail you for putting the car in neutral and pushing the clutch in before you start the car?

What are you supoosed to do if you want to let the car warm up or you’re waiting for someone or any other reason you want to start the car but not immediately start driving? Are you supposed to put it in first, push in the clutch, start the car and then just leave the clutch pushed in for 5 minutes?

You probably want to go to a minimum security federal prison. The easiest way to get there that I think of is check fraud.

You’ll need to write a bunch or bad checks in as many states as you can, or send them through the mail. You’ll need to do this a lot, and for a pretty significant amount of money otherwise they’ll just give you probation of some sort.

Having a disability might be a problem though; if it costs too much medically to keep you in prison they’ll just out you back on the street as a compassionate release.

From what I see what went wrong is letting the speech continue after receiving a report of a gunmen, and then even worse they let the speech continue after visually confirming the gunmen.

The cop should have radiod “investigatig a gunmen on this rooftop” and as soon as he did they should have stopped the speech and gotten Trump to safety.

The FBI identified Crooks by analyzing his DNA, officials told local CBS affiliate KDKA, as he did not have any identification on him.

This is the part that makes me go wtf…

How did they go from sampling his DNA and identifying him in that short amount? I don’t remember the exact time, but it seemed like it took about 5 hours.

That is what should happen when a starting capacitor fails, but it doesn’t always happen as it’s supposed to.

Another possibility is the starting capacitor for the compressor motor is bad.

If the capacitor is bad then the compressor motor won’t actually start, but the fan will still turn on. This will make it seem like the AC unit is running, but there won’t actually be any cooling going on. The fans will still blow air, and it’ll feel slightly cooler because it’s moving air, but it won’t actually be cooler.

Replacing capacitors is pretty easy and not too expensive. However, it can be extremely dangerous so I recommend you leave it to the professionals unless you have some experience working with electricity.

Fuck you, yes we can

Newsome would have to resign as Governor and I’m not sure he wants to do that for a long shot presidential campaign.

Newsome polls very poorly against Trump and he also isn’t very popular in his home state as Governor.

What is wrong with you? It’s very clear that the issue that makes organizing in the Texas 33rd is the extreme gerrymandering. What question did you think you were answering when you confidently answered “the interenet”? Were you just saying random shit hoping no one would call you out on your bullshit?

Which Trump policy’s do you expect to cause deflation significant enough to reduce your grocery bill?

Which Trump policy’s do you expect to reduce your dependcy on owning a car so that you won’t be at the mercy of oil companies, car manufacturers, and insurance companies in order to survive?

Banning Democratic candidates from taking campaign contributions from outside actors like the AIPAC, but those are a pretty small drop in the bucket of the total spending.

This article summarizes the spending on the Bowman election.

About $22 million has been spent on the Bowman/Latimer race. About $6 million of that comes from campaign spending which you suggestion might address. It would be pretty easy to bypass the restriction because most of the AIPAC funding comes from bundling individual donations; the AIPAC could send links to contributors and have them directly donate to Latimer’s campaign as individuals completely bypassing the process. So not really much the DNC can do there.

The majority of the money being spent on the campaign (about $16 million) is from independent PACs. Even if the DNC did ban contributions from these groups going directly to campaigns, that portion of their spending is really a very small piece of the funding that’s being addressed (less than $3.2 million). The vast majority is really outside the candidates control, if a PAC wants to send out mailers and run advertisements they can pretty much do it with impunity.

How is the DNC leadership expected to control the spending of PACs and the contributions of individuals? (Your original claim was the DNC is allowing these things to happen, I’m simply rephrasing the claim not trying to move the goal posts).

We 100% need campaign finance reform, and less outside influence on elections in general, but blaming this situation on the DNC doesn’t seem appropriate.
