2024 Presidential Election Thread

He has a “policy” section on his website and he’s done a hundred interviews where he’s explained his platform. I don’t agree with quite a bit of it but at least he has a platform. Harris doesn’t even have a single policy on her website.

I doubt he can even recollect what his staff put on that website on his behalf.

Dang it, they should call it a stupid, boneheaded idea no matter who is proposing it. Shame on both of them.

This election cycle is so frustrating. Harris has a ridiculous, boneheaded idea that is just flat out bad policy and she should be ashamed for even thinking about it much less suggesting it. All of that would be worth bringing up, except Trump thought of it first.

Harris would be considered a historically weak candidate, were it not for, well, the alternative.

And the mainstream media lets them get away with it.., no wonder people are joining me and getting their news from X these days. MSM is dead…

When has CNN had a billion views of anything?

And Harris doesn’t want to do an interview because as Trump says she is “low IQ”.

You are getting something from X, but I'm not sure it qualifies as news.

At this point RFK seems like the best worst choice. I’ll never vote for Trump. Kamala doesn’t have a platform so I’m assuming she’s the same person she was in 2019, which was super progressive left wing (and I don’t want her to take my job due to her dumb ban on fracking). RFK at least isn’t surrounded by racists or the Squad. I may also just leave my ballot blank for the presidential vote because it won’t matter anyway with me being in Texas.

I'm supporting RFK solely in hopes he can be demonstrably shown to cost one of the other two the election. Then, the losing party will have no choice but to swing more to the center, and then I can support that newly 'centric' party. I am playing 4D chess here.

Uh, don't bank on it. RFK is already more friendly to Trump btw. He is even aiming for some kind of cabinet side. I really have enjoyed his stories though.

Just catching up on this thread today. Couple of thoughts--I've never liked nor understood the term "lawfare." Looks like welfare, but is it simply doing battle in the courts (people in the know call this "litigation")? In any case, it seems weird for MAGA to use the term since their hero, far more than any other businessman I've ever known, has used the courts to chisel and extract concessions from others. It's a major reason his reputation in NY business and banking circles has long been in the shitter.

And I still scratch my head over RFK Jr.s enthusiasm for eating road kill bear meat, but he refuses a vaccination.

At least he thought to have someone put it on his website. Kamala can’t even do that. She’s a horrible candidate.

[Moliere]

Lol, RFK is pretty separated from reality. It is not the best problem solving behavior to see "an unknown woman," hit a bear and drive off, and then go ahead proceed to put the animal in your vehicle because you want to cook it up for later only to stop at a steakhouse and then decide to ditch the bear body.

He thinks COVID was engineered to not be problematic to the Chinese (yeah, I'm not sure evidence backed that up) or Ashkenazi Jews. I'm sure he is a lovely person but he shouldn't be making complex decisions for a township, let alone a nations of hundreds of millions.

Vote some other third party if you must, and or write in the ghost of George Washington as a protest vote, but RFK isn't the way to go. v

The bear story is incredible and it beats a story about being promoted in a government position by the guy you are secretly sleeping with. RFK goes facloning. That alone is cool.

Kamala is not that awful. I'm not particularly thrilled about Harris, but I don't really think you'd like any democrat. There are plenty of other RFK stories, so that's really an odd metric. RFK JR was a known serial philander. He's himself admitted he has "so many skeletons" in his closest. Falconing - I agree, that is cool.


Also Trump didn't put anything on his website. Someone did that for him. He's not a big words kind of guy.

RFK Jr's own family doesn't back him. He has been accused of groping a babysitting.

On his dumb anti-Covid-Vax book he has a photo of kid who didn't die from the vaccine because he never received the vaccination. He's not a compromise candidate or a moderate. He's ridiculous.

Of course, but just do a little small time littering in Central Park. No one will notice.

Also, it's up for debate if he ate a dog or not, but worms or a worm did eat part of his brain.

She was appointed to a position by a person she was in a personal relationship with and didn’t disclose that relationship. That’s unethical.

He is the only candidate to call out the EU for election interference…

give the man a break, Frank. The CIA killed his uncle and his dad when he was a young boy.
