2024 Presidential Race

[BowlBrother85]

It's too late to cancel a rally.

No, it's not. Trump's been canceling them left and right.

I'm not seeing it. There has been way, way, way too much rhetoric about "threat to democracy" and whatnot to just concede peacefully.

I hope I'm wrong. But there is seriously something tingling my senses.

I get what you're saying here. If these political leaders REALLY believe he's Hitler and the end to Democracy then how could they possibly just acquiesce? What kind of freedom loving American politician would that make them? And even if they back down because they knew all along that was pure BS to try to win an election how many liberal nutjobs actually DID buy that jive and what might they do...seeing as Hitler has now been made Chanc...I mean President?

There's a lot could go wrong, especially in some of the places already sketchy.

All the more reason to walk the walk. Sometimes, I think Trump voters project what we know of his mindset to be onto others. Not everyone is like him.

walk what walk? Allowing literally Hitler in just because he won the election? allowing the biggest threat to democracy ever to just take office? Allowing him to take power and start locking people up, separating whites from their "colored" spouses?

 

[BowlBrother85]

She and all the dems in congress would be violating their oath of office if they allow Trump to be sworn in.

Because of some campaign rhetoric? That is dumb. I believe she will do the right thing, if she loses.

No, the point is that even 1 percent violent is still violent.
Almost everyone arrested on Jan 6 was arrested merely for walking around in the Capitol. But my guess is that you wouldn’t call that mostly peaceful, right (nor would I).
When a mob starts doing violent activity, it becomes a violent event, regardless of how many of the participants actually behave violently.
When a city block is burning down behind you, it is beyond farcical to claim that what is happening is mostly peaceful.

You gotta realize there where 100s of protest at local high schools with 2 or 3 people holding signs that they figure into the BLM stats on peaceful protests...1 violent riot with 400 people brunog and looting and 99 1 or 2 people protest holding signs on a street corner..equal 99% peaceful BLM protests.. but 2 billion dollars in damage

that is some extremely divisive rhetoric that has already killed an American.

 

[Sandman 423]

How many burned ballot boxes are you accounting for in liberal enclaves?

Who is burning them?

 

[n_huffhines]

Who is burning them?

 

[hog88]

No, it's not. Trump's been canceling them left and right.

It costs a lot of money to cancel them. I haven't seen anything about Trump cancelling rallies.

Just to be factual, Harris cited a NY Times article where John Kelly claimed that Donald Trump once praised Hitler for doing some good things. She did not say that he was Hitler.

You mean Trump isn't the modern Hitler and a threat to our democracy?

 

[UT_VOLS13]

I'll say this...

The conspiracy side of me thinks Kamala won't certify a Trump victory causing everything from peaceful civil disobedience to full blown rioting and true insurrection.

The even deeper conspiracy side of me thinks this is exactly what they want.

I like your thinking!

Harris has called him a fascist.

 

[BreatheUT]

Well, the white effeminate half-man she picked as her running mate isn't helping the cause. Especially when he talks about "running a pick 6".

Let's just cut to the chase - he chose a girl to play Madden against.

 

[85SugarVol]

Muslim guy on CNN who has called for the stoning of gays calls someone a Nazi.

They respond with “I hope your beeper doesn’t go off”

lol and only one of the two is now banned from CNN

Medhi Hasan called for the stoning of gay people?

On CNN, right?

She has already said never again .... over & over the other day.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Harris has called him a fascist.

So did John Kelly. Trump's former Chief of Staff.

Said what?

But Vance did call trump "America's Hitler".

 

[n_huffhines]

You mean Trump isn't the modern Hitler and a threat to our democracy?

The last part?...I mean, he is a big government guy who spends like an azzhole. That makes him a threat, IMO. But even to moderates and liberals who don't care about big government...he is an absolute wild card who becomes more and more unhinged with age. Nobody who is being honest with themselves can say he's absolutely not a threat.

 

[n_huffhines]

But Vance did call trump "America's Hitler".

Not a single person ITT will hold that against him, but Kamala saying less creates a ton of butthurt.

 

[LouderVol]

So did John Kelly. Trump's former Chief of Staff.

So she only said he was:
-a fascist
-invoked Hitler, just showing who he really is
-Trump is dictator who vowed to use the military to settle personal vendettas
-a threat to democracy who needed to be stopped at all costs

yeah that is SOOOOO different than calling him Hitler.

granted it wasn't *literally* as I stated, so I really need to avoid my Sith backgrounds and absolutes, but the point still stands.
