Was this when big macs were like $3 a pop? That would bankrupt most people now

Yes this was 15 yrs ago
Im always surprised how much junk/ fast food poor fat people are able to acquire
Totally agree with this statement. I take a sandwich to work (from home) and maybe an apple. But I'm amazed at how much a person making $10-15 an hour, spends on meals.

Worse, he can and will probably win. The race is a pure toss up and thatusually favors candidates of that type.
Short of any major october surprises i think Trump is currently on course to win and Dems have nobody to blame but themselves for refusing open primaries against their awful candidates in biden or kamala. Leadership of the DNC and their top donors are probably more ok with trump winning then risking any challenge to their power from the ideological wing of their own party too

100% agree Kyle, democrats have only themselves to blame because they’re too scared of what the people want. Fuck them, I can’t bring myself to vote for Kamala because of shit like this

Get over yourself!

Watch them blame the voters, again.

Agreed. Trump will most likely win which means the next four years are gonna be hilarious.

i hope you're wrong. that would be terrible for most of the world, including the whole europe
Do you really believe it's going to be worse for Europe?
I'm not informed enough on the matter to have an opinion but i always felt Europe has been affected massively from supporting the US "wars" these past years.

No matter how you slice it, I don't think the Democrats had a viable mass popularity option that wasn't in full dementia.

Well, that's true of the GOP as well, but Trump is getting a lot of graces for just a few years less on the dementia trail.

Open primaries would have been a good idea in February. But not in July. You have to blame Biden and his enablers on that one.

Because while I still was in favor of a short primary round, party unity would have been chaos the whole way to November with infighting factions. Plus the added bonus of black women who could arguably say they carried the party for years suddenly getting one of their own representatives sent to the back of the bus when she was the next in line. (And I don't like Kamala but still voted for her out of the two legit choices.)

The Democrats have some good peeps, but none of them with the broad appeal needed to carry the Electoral College.

DJT will drop like a fly one year in and you guys will be left with JD Vance lol.
This is 100% happening. During some briefing meeting, DJT is going to walk off and start hugging the White House curtains, going off about electric boats or some crap. The rest of his cabinet -- who in 4 years will be like 30 Judases, 10 Thomases, and 4 Matthews at the Last Supper -- are going to have to keep the meeting rolling pretending grandpa isn't about to accidentally open a window and fall out.

No offence, but if Trump wins that speaks volumes about the sheer stupidity of the American public.

Things were different in 2016, back then I could see the appeal for specific categories of people.

But in 2024 Trump is a (convicted) rapist, who advised people to drink bleach during the pandemic, who tried to overthrow the US democracy and who is convicted on 34 felony counts.

And if that's not enough, watch the rallies. The only logical conclusion can be that he has dementia. He's talking about sharks v electric boats, he's talking about Hannibal Lecter. He even invented a word to justify his verbal meandering. What he's not talking about is policy, he only has 'a concept' of a plan. And sometimes, sometimes he doesn't talk at all. Rather he just stands there staring into nothing for 40 minutes while letting his soundtrack play.

You have to be out of your goddamn mind to vote for this man.
