I will give it a listen. Some of the things that Sam and Emma from the Majority Report had to say kind of shifted my perspective as well. I'm fine with Kamala being the candidate at this point. I've made peace with that if that is what needs to happen. I think she has evolved more than people have given her credit for, and I would not have an issue with voting for her in November.

Seems like it is time for Obama to give Joe the phone call, and tell him that by staying in this race he is forcing the country to play Russian Roulette with a clip loading pistol...

Yeah, there is no putting the cat back in the bag on this one. Unfortunately, there is also no guarantee that replacing Biden will increase the electoral chances with Harris at the top of the ticket.

The only thing that matters is mustering support from the politically uninvolved, transient voters who have the power to manipulate the swing state electorate. At the moment I don't see Biden inspiring anyone to vote that wasn't already going to vote, and that should scare the literal fuck out of everyone.

The baked in Republican advantage due to the electoral college is already so steep to overcome without these fucking self-inflicted wounds the DNC seems hellbent on saddling the country with every four years. At least Republicans actively telegraph their evil for everyone to see. The evil of the DNC, on the other hand, is subtrefuge. They seem more than willing to doom society rather than cede control or overturn the status quo in favor of progressive populism. They are the fucking enemy too, and it is high time we start treating them as such.

the American people are smarter than the media.

They absolutely are not if you are speaking in gross generalities. Maybe the people you are used to interacting with are, but there's a lot of stupid mother fuckers in this country that cum from watching Fox News.

golf clap.... Well said.

You made some valid points, so I upvoted you because of what you wrote even though I am highly skeptical of this polling data. My personal impression is that while polling may be at best inaccurate, the total summation of the available evidence suggests the situation for the Biden campaign is beyond dire.

It appears, from the outside, to be significantly worse than 2016 at this point. Especially given some of the answers he gave in his interview yesterday. When the candidate himself has made it clear that he is okay with losing, I think that is pretty much a wrap. You aren't motivating anybody. If you don't give a fuck about the potential dystopian future of this country, then why would that reality even register for the average normie voter?

When one side is a death cult with religious fervor toward their deified god king, and the other side has a leader who thinks they are trying to win the equivalent of a pickup basketball game you tell me what you think the most likely outcome is going to be. Fuck the data. On a human level, things are looking bleak as fuck, and no polling is going to change that.

I refuse to watch it. I've checked out at this point. He won't drop out, and he is 100% going to lose the election. I've seen this show before. Spending an hour watching the same fucking story with a different actor is a waste of time. I knew Hillary was going to lose in 2016, and I know Biden is going to lose in 2024. My state is deep blue, so there is no reason I can find to even bring myself to care about this freakshow anymore.

DING DING DING WE GOT A WINNER FOLKS!

Truth x Facts

If you attack people based on immutable characteristics, then your fucked up, melted face is fair game. Don't throw stones in a glass house and all that.

It is more than just a chance. The aggregate Vegas odds have a Joe Biden victory at +430. They literally think Donald Trump wins this election more than 4/5 of the time. We're completely fucked.

The stupidity of this statement truly strains belief given the actual verbiage in this ruling. May you suffer the full weight and consequences of that stupidity.

The president can't commit criminal acts and claim it was an official capacity, lol.

What the fuck do you mean "lol". That is PRECISELY what this ruling does. It removes criminal liability for anything that is done as an official act, which is entirely fucking subjective, and up to the interpretation of a corrupt, coopted judiciary. Get the fuck out of here with that bullshit.

Conventional brick and mortar retail is extremely expensive to maintain. It has less to do with Amazon specifically, and more to do with the rise of online retail & direct to consumer business models more generally. Don't get me wrong, Amazon was a huge pioneer in that area, but it would have happened one way or another.

Religion isn't about morality. It is about power & control.

I don't know who downvoted you because you are exactly fucking right.

Thank you man, I really appreciate your reply.

Hug you parents. Show them that you love them. Nothing is so important that you should forget how much they have meant to your life. My mom died suddenly this week, and far too young. The time is never long enough...
