Some of trumps recent remarks are keeping me up at night again. The Israel situation was keeping me up a l little bit ago and now it’s this dip shit again and his psychopath cronies
I’m probably just biased because I think trump is hilarious but I feel he’s gonna blow Biden out the water
Ah yes, racism, sexism and fascism… hilarious
The election will be between funny racism, sexism and fascism or unfunny racism, sexism, and fascism
yeah biden does all that shit too, he’s just not as funny about it
Please, share an example that is equivalent to Trump parroting talking points from Mein Kampf:
It is a very sad thing for our country. It’s poisoning the blood of our country. It’s so bad, and people are coming in with disease.

And also explain how that’s funny.
Saying someone is funny does not mean everything they say is funny, are you dense or something?
Heres something funny:Fascism = doodoo
Doodoo = funny
∴ Fascism = funny doodoo
“I am a Zionist”
Yea because literally every single thing Trump says is funny
He probably has more funny in his toupee than you do in your entire bloodline
Genocide Joe has the blood of 10,000 children on his hands and so do you
Laughing at the ridiculousness of this world is how I cope, let me be
Sometimes he can be because he’s such a buffoon. Nothing funny about what he’s said recently though. Stuff that people like Stephen miller have most likely been feeding him
I feel its more like way too many things are tempting this outcome.
The easy prediction now imo is still that people want some (even incorrect) sense of slight stability, so Biden at least squeaks out a win. Sorry to anyone who somehow doesn’t want that, but that’s just the reallly easier bet.
But on what feels now to be a daily/weekly basis, something comes that threatens this. That somehow on a rising mountain of concerns and events, there’s nothing the Democrats can eventually do to avoid a collective national shrug as fucking Donald Trump becomes president again. Fucking somehow. I’m not there yet where I’m doomsaying on the corner about it (that’ll be Spring?), but I hate the gravitational feeling that’s getting too similar to my sentiments in 2016.
Bad
the election will be determined by a future crisis, and not israel / palestine. there are black swans and white crows.
While I wouldn’t be surprised if Democrats are dumb enough to push Biden, I think he’ll be replace with someone more palatable in the convention.
Not to ever give dems too much credit but this seems like the worst of all strategies.
Spend a year blasting the message “you might not like him but you have to vote for him because it’s the only way we stop fascism, oh wait no actually this other guy you also don’t like is ACTUALLY the only way to stop fascism so now you have to vote for THEM even though you don’t like them”
yes, someone…
spoiler
This would have to be the absolute dumbest thing they could do. It would immediately become the single most boneheaded political decision in the history of the Republic.
So, entirely within the realm of possibility
Based on the predictive method of “what would be the funniest possible outcome” this makes sense.
But she has to wear the mustache and glasses and every liberal in the country has to insist that Chillary Hinton is NOT Hillary Clinton, that’s just classic Russian disinformatsia. Including all the times the glasses comically fall off her face and she puts them back on upside down.
i cannot tell the future, except in this one, extremely specific case:
In the year 2024, I will not be casting a ballot for Genocide Joe
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?How do you format this so it is single spaced after each line break?
Put two spaces at the end of the line before hitting enter
Like sooh thats
great
thanks
I think between fast descent into full fascism and break neck speed descent into full fascism that the latter will win.
The national security state vastly prefer Biden over Trump, so Biden will most likely be president barring him being incapacitated somehow by virtue of being a walking corpse knocking on death’s door.
i’m just going to assume desantis or someone worse will win and send me directly to a death camp based on my internet history, so anything less than that will seem great by comparison
I’m projecting big losses for the working class, like every election, of every year.
Of course that’s why i generally don’t put much stock. But the blood poisoning comments are the most blatant comments he’s made in awhile
Trump: “They are poisoning our blood! Believe me! Very many people are saying it!”
Biden: “We live in a racial jungle, Jack!”
Trump/Biden: kills shitloads of workers to enrich capitalists every day of their presidencies*
Yea and bidens response was “I don’t like the language but he’s not wrong”
He was talking about securing a future for American children last time, he’s been an open fascist for 8 years now, nothing has stuck yet. 2016 he led crowds in chants of “lock her up” about jailing his political opponents and stadiums followed him in chanting it, because as soon as liberals indicated theybwere offended by it it was the most effective message in the country.
In fact he’s now quadrupled down on it because once again his bases top priority is he continue to do things that upset liberals and now that liberals have told them you can’t say immigrants poison the blood of a country he will lead his crowds in chants of it going forward.
Germany:
The AfD get huge wins in Saxony, Thuringia and Brandenburg. The likelihood of them actually getting into government is low. The Left party and the patsoc splitter BSW (name likely to change) will take votes from each other and probably both manage to get either barely above or below 5%.
The Socdems and Greens eat shit, and if the FDP’s membership vote on dissolving the traffic light coalition, the early elections will almost certainly lead to a grand coalition of a reaganite CDU and the SPD. The left party is also highly likely to get like 3% or 2% and probably wither away in such a scenario.
Austria:
I don’t know enough about their politics, but I’d give the KPÖ (Communist Party) a 50% chance of getting into the national council. They had a big surge, but the socdems elected a Bernie Sanders style sheepdog that gave off the impression of being more left wing than he is. The fash will probably win, but the government will be formed by the conservatives, socdems and maybe liberals in one alliance.
Rest of the world:
Putin probably wins a huge landslide. The yanks wallow in misery from their own elections. A man named Chad won’t win the Chadian election.
Trump’s going to win and is going to try to do a lot of scary shit but this is a country that couldn’t mail out paper masks in a pandemic. He’ll manage to kill some people via spectacular violence and institute a geographically patchy reign of terror but he will neither produce a broad effective program nor will he have institutions capable of executing it
The country will of course be further destabilized (and who knows what that’ll entail) but perhaps more importantly what Trump will do is grind the United States of America’s inner workings to a halt and, God willing, asphyxiate it like an immobilized shark
been following that ettingermentum guy that Chapo has interviewed before for his electoralism takes from getting the 2022 election right and I think he thinks that Biden could probably just barely squeak out a win against Trump rn. Dems best chance is to take Biden to the farm upstate and kill him and run literally anyone else, except Hillary, against Trump.
I think Biden barely winning is plausible, but the question is what happens after that? Another January 6-tier meltdown, civil war, nothing?
Another meltdown, but even more of a joke. If Trump couldn’t pull it off as a sitting president, he absolutely won’t pull it off from the outside
Trump’s probably going to win. Biden’s approval ratings are historically low, no one likes him, and he’s alienating new groups of voters just about every other day. polls already show Biden getting annihilated in swing states, and it’s just going to keep getting worse.
