I definitely get that position and understand why trans people would vote against Trump, especially since a lot of people in Trump's cabinet and inner circle support or have worked on Project 2025. I have a trans friend myself who will be voting for Kamala.
I agree with you on Trump's rhetoric as well, I'm almost 100% an issues and policy voter though and try to ignore the rhetoric. If rhetoric factored into my decision I probably wouldn't be voting for him, I pretty much loathe how Trump has carried himself on Truth Social for most of the campaign. I don't think that that'll affect how he runs the country though, as he was saying similarly vindictive things when running in 2016 like talking about putting Hillary Clinton in jail or opening up the libel laws to go after MSM outlets that lied about him and none of that ever happened.
Where was this energy when Kamala was acting like she didn't want to do any debates at all? Smh
I'm not saying Trump isn't cowardly for this, because he is. But anyone clowning on Kamala for not wanting to debate but not Trump doesn't actually have a problem with debate dodging.
Edit: My b, I misrepresented her position at the time. She didn't want to do two of the three proposed debates at the time but accepted ABC News' invitation
I think we'd see an ease in tensions in certain parts of the world, especially in Israel and Palestine. Trump can't end the Israel-Hamas War, but he'd probably push to limit funding to Iran like he did before, limiting their ability to fund Hamas' and Hezbollah's activities. He'd also probably pressure countries to stop sending as many migrants into America.
I agree. Trump did a townhall when Harris didn't show up to the first proposed the debate, she should do a townhall to replace the next one if Trump ultimately does not show. It'd be a great way to quell complaints that she is afraid of speaking to the media or press as well.
Good. I'm a right winger but don't like DeSantis' approach to fighting the culture war, and it doesn't seem like he's done enough to fight the rising cost of living in Florida either.
My issue with this take is that this is a journalist providing political analysis. I'm not sure why political analysis shouldn't be considered news to some degree. There was a similar article posted here about a pollster saying support for Trump has dried up: https://lemmy.world/post/19677605, and there are a bunch of articles here about celebrity support for Harris. I think Dana Bash saying something about Kamala Harris is equally newsworthy.
I think most people want the candidates they vote for to enact the same policies that they run for. Ain't nobody voting for somebody going like "I'm voting for this guy based on what he says about foreign affairs, I really hope he changes his mind when he's in office".
Not like changing your position or your mind or your policies aren't entirely unreasonable. Trump never got us out of Afghanistan, and Biden never got rid of cancer. However, you shouldn't make promises you can't keep. Making contradictory promises over the past five or ten years merits negative marks in that department.
For me it's literally just EA Sports College Football 25. I'll be playing it for years (my brothers and dad have a family tradition of playing a college football dynasty mode together every year) so that makes a console worth it for me...probably not the PS5 Pro though.
