Same. I just said this to someone. If he loses, I don't even care if he goes to jail or gets fined or whatever. I just don't want to hear or have to worry about his crazy ass comments/ideas anymore. Let's hope this is the case.

Ya, I thought that after Jan 6.

He will have exceeded his usefulness if he loses this time. Again, zero people outside of his family and the idiots that vote for him have any interest in dealing with him unless they can make money off of him. If he isn't and/or can't be president anymore, that last part declines significantly.

He wasn’t president the last four years yet he was still pulling all of the levers for the GOP.

Because he was going to be the nominee. If he isn't the president or nominee, no one outside of the nut jobs will pay him any attention anymore. Even Fox was glad they didn't have to deal with him anymore when he lost last time until they realized they were wrong. I guess maybe he will be the nominee again if he loses this time. It isn't like the R's have any other ideas/plans. :dunno:

Like imagine you had to hire one of these two candidates to do something that actually affects you and even considering Trump.
Kamala is great at saying nothing at all.
Trump is great at saying too much.

I disagree slightly.  Trump says nothing.  He includes no details.  He has no plans that have been presented.  He has nothing other than vibes.  Moving one's mouth and making noise is not the same thing as having a policy, plan, or platform.  Saying stuff like "Deporting everyone day one" doesn't mean anything if you can't give anyone any info on how.

Kamala has a few things, but you have to go find them for the most part.  Otherwise, I agree that she hasn't said much.

Kamala, much like Biden, is what I want in a president. Easy to ignore.

Outside of Garbage-Gate, I can't think of anything Sleepy Joe has done or said anything since he was coup'd.

He’s like 90 years old and morbidly obese. He’s going away very soon.

I'm pretty nervous. I kind of think Trump will win Pennsylvania and it will be bad/sad.

If Kamala doesn't win PA, I don't see her winning.

I looked at this scenario on 270towin last night and without PA there's only 2 narrow paths for her.  NC, MI and AZ or NC, MI and WI.

I'm more confident than I was in 2020, but a lot less confident than I was in 2016.

North Carolina and Iowa will make up for a possible PA loss.

X is an absolute wasteland of maga fake stories about the polls being frauded.  Obviously with no video, photos or links even though they have literally been living for this for 4 years.

horrible what Elon has done to that site. 4 years ago, it was the perfect social media platform. Now it is overrun by bots and actual Nazis. Still has some use as a place to follow breaking news.

The algorithm being set to absolute rage injections is hard to deal with.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

It's sort of fine if you never look at the "for you" tab. I still don't know why anyone would ever do that, but whatever. You also just have to not look at the comments from whatever person you follow. It's literally people telling you the world is falling apart no matter the context. "Mike Trout is out for the year with a knee injury"........17 bots tweeting nonsense followed by someone saying Joe Biden has destroyed America. It's all very weird now so I've just tried not to look at any comments. In the past there was useful info below regular tweets, now it's bots yelling at each other and MAGA saying the world is falling apart under NFL trade deadline tweets.

Enjoying looking at this. It's amazing that there are parts of NYC that were Trump 88% right next to parts that were Biden 91%!

The "For You" feed is designed to inflame rage and anxiety. Agree that the comments/replies have become totally useless. Used to be really fun to follow the thread of comments after the OP.
