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

    Trump probably wins and everything continues to get worse as America plunges ever closer to its collapse. Alternatively, Biden ekes out a win and everything continues to get worse as America plunges ever closer to its collapse.

        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.

    Trump wins and it’s the Dem’s fault as always because they have done absolutely positively nothing of value for any real person in America or the world at large. They could do literally anything, literally ONE FUCKING THING, and beat Trump. They could raise the minimum wage. They could pick literally any human rights issue that’s under attack in the US and make it law. They could give everyone $1000 bucks. Anything. Literally anything, and they would win.

    They won’t though, so they’re gonna get destroyed and they’re gonna blame us.

    Biden realizes the decisive Arab vote in Michigan and Minnesota will cost him the election more than the Zionist-Jewish vote and pivots to Palestine. In a moment of tenuous solidarity, the USS Gerald Ford allows Ansar Allah militants aboard so as not to be the direct force enforcing the blockade on Caesaria Port.

    Biden won 2020 by tricking younger voters to come out and vote in The Most Important Election of Our Lifetime™ and they’re not dumb enough to fall for it again. Why keep voting for a party that is incapable (and unwilling) to fulfill its promises once they’re in power?

    The only thing I can tell you is that the media circus will be much less. Trump has less of a platform and the democrats don’t want Biden to speak publicly. Neither side has a real primary or the possibility of another candidate.

    imo it’s too early to tell. Americans have the memory of a goldfish, I don’t think anything that happens before the final candidates for each party are chosen matters. Sure the dems have absolutely lost some people over Bombin’ Biden’s support of Israel, but I don’t think that really matters to most american voters. It’s looking like it’ll be Biden vs Trump again, but without a bunch of residual goodwill towards biden and Trump has the advantage of not being on the defence this time (court cases notwithstanding but I don’t know how much those will factor in. If anything he can spin it as being under attack by the entrenched powers etc etc). Right now if I was a betting man I’d say trump has the lead, but with still almost a year to go anything could happen.

    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?

    Opinions of the youth don’t matter and they’ll go amnesic in six months time regardless, older middle class cracker suburbanites vote more, and they don’t care about genocide or border camps, they’ll vote for Biden because of the money the US is sucking up from Europe and the residual aftershocks from Roe vs Wade

    Trump will be too bogged down with court battles to focus on effective anti-dem campaigning, and for every Arab vote Biden loses he’ll pick up evangelical zionist dominionists from bumfuck Michigan

    Turnout will be slightly lower but not unprecedented, the zionist lobby will recover in a years time, pro-Palestinian voices will slowly and quietly be purged from media and academia, and all the pseudo-left culture commentators will be activated and start preaching for the cult of harm reduction

    Biden will win a comfortable victory

      I don’t get everybody saying trumps gonna be bogged down.

      Everytime he gets charged with something it galvanized his base.

      Other republican nominees actually started attacking him until Colorado ruled he can’t be on the ballot because he was proven to have tried to instigate an insurrection (don’t kill the messenger that’s what the ruling said not me) and every news anchor on msnbc and CNN agree its good for Trump and all his opponents are back to defending him.
