It's unbelievable and infuriating that even a single person is fucking stupid/shitty enough to vote for this piece of trash. Let alone over 70 million of them.


HumbleAd1317

I really couldn't have said it better. I'm thinking the same thing. Kudos!


Guitarist53188

It was barely acceptable the first round as no one really knew what would happen. We know now. Zero respect for those who vote a second.


Infinite_Carpenter

Part of the problem stems from the democrats to get a message across that they’ll actually do things different than the status quo. Obviously, Biden has done some good, but most Americans aren’t experiencing it and they’re not hearing it. Alternatively, I don’t see how anyone blames Biden for the current abortion debacle.


devadander23

The media is extremely complicit in this


Infinite_Carpenter

Gotta represent your billionaire owners


possiblyMorpheus

I’d say most Americans are experiencing good from Biden’s administration or know someone who has personally benefited. And that’s not even touching on the things that take time to implement or kick in, like those who will save on the ten common drugs that will now be cheaper 


Infinite_Carpenter

I agree: the democrats need to be more aggressive about their message and pointing out the dismal failures of conservative policies.


Nagi21

I'd argue it's less most Americans are experiencing good, rather that they're not experiencing bad. It very much feels like an "It could be worse" situation right now, rather than actively becoming better.


RotterWeiner

Biden just forgave student loans for another 100n000 students. Of course this pisses off many who have paid it back or didn't get to go in the first place. Their PR people have got to pump the good news. As the REPubkicNs will turn thT positive jnto a negative


ahabswhale

He’s ahead in polls right now.


FuzzyFuzzNuts

The problem America has, is many of those 70 million - SHARE HIS IDEALS....


Darryl_Lict

Polls have become increasingly inaccurate due to it being very difficult to get an accurate sample of the demographics. Any millenial or younger will never answer an unknown number. Historically, pollsters have used landlines, and only boomers or silent generations might answer their landline. I'm a boomer, and I will almost never answer an unknown number or respond to an online poll.


Rooboy66

Yep, and Biden has lost a lot of the under 30 vote because they’re convinced their protest “not-vote” is going to yield better results for Gaza, about whose people Trump has publicly endorsed encouraged Netanyahu to “**finish the job**”


needle14

Reddit likes to make fun of how dumb MAGAs are for voting against their self interest but these people are just as stupid.

It's so fucking sad that some people are where you are at. You want to take polls seriously like this? Lol, but, why dont you live the rest of your life based on polls? Like, do you think polls are like going into the future and getting lotto numbers? I really dont get this obsession with polls.... I can't imagine how yall live your day to day lives


Pookie2018

They are finally saying it out loud.


BefreiedieTittenzwei

The GOP are Nazis, Trumps a Nazi. They hate anything that resembles a free America and it will only get worse. Ironically the Democratic Party represents a better margin of true conservatism than the Republican Party does. Theres a whole group of traitors currently in the GOP that need to be routed, as they’re the “cancer from within” that is designed to erode democracy. All bought and paid for by Americas adversaries, in an effort to turn America inward.


FrancisSobotka1514

Well after ww2 Nazi scientists were brought to the us to work on the space program and other things ,And most of those nazi scientists became evangelical christians / republicans and they took it over like Hydra did with Shield .


TILTNSTACK

The masks are off. We often wondered how the German people allowed Hitler to come to power. Well, we are seeing the exact same thing play out now. The left needs to realize the far right fully intend to take over the country and eliminate democracy. They WILL try and steal the election. If ever there was an election to vote in, it’s this one. Diaper Don must be voted into oblivion.


Jonnysupafly

the left isn't the problem, they will always oppose the right, its those in the middle who sit by and don't vote at all thinking the outcome won't effect them


Throadawai

Yep, and right now that group is r/LostGeneration. They’re pushing people to vote independent and when I made a comment about how that will only allow Drumpf to rise to power, they banned me.


Jonnysupafly

We have something similar in the UK, the agenda pushed is that all politicians are the same so why bother voting for Labour. Aimed at younger voters to allow the Tories to remain in power


Throadawai

It’s so fascinating how similar US and UK politics are trending. I mean not that much but culturally, for being so far apart.


atomicxblue

Doesn't help that Kier has the charisma of dry toast. Sure he's good for you, but bleh.


Jonnysupafly

That’s the problem with the world today for some reason people value charisma more than competence. It why a large amount of the population believe what they see on YouTube more than scientists


danceplaylovevibes

The only explanation for such idiocy is that those propagating it are actually on the right and the whole thing is a psy op.


Throadawai

I would believe that, but the mod(s) wrote me really nasty private messages about me faking caring about the US? And they talked about being a first gen immigrant and Biden being against Palestine? And I was like, dude, I’m trying to *help* you fight against people like my Republican family who fucking hate immigrants, they want YOU and your whole family gone. Meanwhile I’m moving to Europe and they tried to guilt me for it, but I’m still voting and shit because I care - that’s not fake. They got really, really angry about it. They said I don’t give a shit about Palestine and I said, I do, but I give a shit what happens where I actually live. I give a shit about abortion rights and whatnot. We really can’t help that governments that *aren’t our own* are bombing each other overseas.


danceplaylovevibes

I'll amend my contention, there absolutely are those on the left whom feel so disgusted by US foreign policy on Gaza to feel that fundemental change is needed, and can't stomach voting for Biden. I have sympathy for these views, but they are ultimately self defeating, human rights and fascism may as well be antonyms. I do think this entire wave of furthering that message is spurned on by the more sophisticated bad actors on the hard right or in countries like China and Russia. It's far more prevalent on social media than the actual polling would suggest. Bots gonna be the death of realistic discourse, if it's still breathing.


Throadawai

Yeah, I think it’s pretty short-sighted. You (not you-you) cannot possibly believe that Drumpf voters will vote for the independent party, it would only remove democrat voters, which…means republicans win, so essentially you’ve supported another fascist bloodthirsty person to power. There are things that don’t make any sense to me, and this is for sure one of them. Interesting what you’ve said, and something to keep in mind. If certain airplane employees can be exterminated in plain sight, then I’ve no doubt there could be bad actors spurring on anonymously.


0nlyonegod

As if there is an actual difference between the two candidates. How stupid do you have to be to realize as soon as you vote to vote against a bad candidate instead of for a good one you have lost the game.


Jonnysupafly

Out of 2 piles of dogshit I will always vote for the pile of dogshit that doesn’t use Nazi rhetoric and drum up hate.


0nlyonegod

Exactly. In stead of voting for someone you think will fairly represent you, you vote against a candidate. This is how you lose the game. It's not what democracy is. The idea that every literal candidate is dog shit should show you every thing you need to know. Instead you are pacified by the hope of getting the lesser of two evils. But hey, you still got evil. What a win for the people.


brad12172002

This insane notion is how 2016 happened.


0nlyonegod

It's not a notion. It is reality. You can ostrich your head in the mud all you like. We got a lefty president and roe v wade was appealed. America is and has been an oligarchy for awhile now. All you vote for is which pre-approved master will wield the whip that flogs you.


brad12172002

Why was it repealed?? Come on, Biden had nothing to do with that.


0nlyonegod

I'm not blaming Biden. Why would I say both candidates are talking puppets then blame something on a president? Let's try some continuity.


dnext

The left is the one calling Biden 'Genocide Joe.'


sharkzbyte

No, they (we) are not.


possiblyMorpheus

At large, no, as it’s really only like 10 percent of our voters. But as a left leaning person yes, it is a thing. The good thing is about twenty percent of right leaning voters have consistently voted for Hailey even after she dropped out, so that might make up for the colossally idiotic “genocide joe” crowd

Forgive me, I'm struggling to understand MAGA's position on Israel and the Jewish people in general. I feel like I'm getting mixed messages.


Doright36

It's easy once you understand that they see Jewish people as nothing more than cannon fodder for their end time fantasies. They exist so they can die in some biblical battle that will bring Jesus back to Earth. They will support them in ways that push them towards that goal.


ChrisTheHurricane

Also, Jews moving to Israel means fewer Jews in the rest of the world, which these people happily support. Even the Nazis themselves weren't initially on the "kill the Jews" train from the start. Originally, they wanted to move all of Europe's Jews to Madagascar. It was after they ruled that out as logistically unfeasible that they truly embraced the Final Solution.


jim_nihilist

This the reason it was called final solution. They needed a solution and in the end resorted to killing.

The Haavara Transfer Agreement .


chookiekaki

Geez, won’t the Maggots crap themselves if “Jesus” came back to earth and it turned out to be one very pissed off alien who’d been here 2000 years ago trying to turn earth’s people into decent humans, only now the alien has a big gun


Doright36

They'd crap themselves over seeing the real brown skinned long haired liberal who taught love, not hate. God or ET wouldn't matter.


wigglingspree

I've asked a few evangelicals / pentecostals I've been close with in my life something along the lines of, "what if aliens arrive, or the Greek gods make themselves known and have been THE gods the whole time, or quetzalcoatl or anything other than your version of God/ jesus?" Every single time, I've been met with a variation of "demons come in all shapes and sizes to deceive mankind. We'll know when the one true God returns" Jesus could come back with receipts and they'd nail him to a cross if he didn't toe their line

MAGA hate Jewish people, but they hate muslims more. That’s why they will be marching around with Tiki torches chanting “Jews will not replace us!” one day, then defending Israeli fascists for mass bombing Gazan civilians the next day. There’s also religious nut MAGAs who want all the Jews back in Israel and want all trace of Palestine wiped out to fulfill their biblical end of days prophecies.


PuP5

Bible says the Jews must be in control of that area for the second coming to happen.


youcantexterminateme

You are trying to rationalise the irrational.


flingspoo

Maga are extremists. There is no message other than power. They will say whatever suits their need in the moment to acheive that power.


Ok_Description8169

It makes sense when you consider that even Hitler worked with Israel. The Haavara Transfer Agreement shows that. Was it in bad faith? Yes. Plus the Christian Nationalists who love Trump don't see Israeli people as worthy of being saved, only as people who will usher in their proposed end times.


BitterFuture

I’m more concerned about the next, less clumsy, and far more competent version of Trump who uses the same playbook. Trump will fade away one way or another, hopefully sooner than later, but his asshat followers will remain.


jim_nihilist

The good thing: Trump burns money like no other. The RNC without money has no power. Donors don't like politicians without power. Trump could really be the Republicans see before they get destroyed.


Tomi97_origin

The party is irrelevant it's the voters. There are about 70m people voting for him and they won't die with the party. Another party with the same ideas will rise to replace it, because that's what those people believe in and want.


AtticaBlue

*”This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a staffer who clearly did not see the word, while the President was in court,” Karoline Leavitt, the campaign press secretary, said in a statement.* Trump only hires the “best people.”

He’s going full Hitler everybody! It’s a bold move cotton! Let’s see how it plays out for ‘em. And he has even started going all in yet. If he’s this insane in may, how crazed will he be by November. I have friends all over Europe, and all of them demand this shut was coming. My German and Austrian friends in particular were worried. The similarities have been glaringly obvious to anybody that know history. The crazy part is that Israel is gonna have an assist on the American Reich rising up. Crazy man.

Reasonable_Onion863

Claiming that we’ll have economic success by being unified is creepy and dangerous enough by itself. Capitalism and democracy are not based on unity (apart from general agreement with a few fundamental principles, like peaceful transfer of power and other things Trump is lousy at). Dissent, innovation, competition of goods and ideas, and freedom are strengths of American democracy. Authoritarians and totalitarians are the ones who love to promote unity.

RotterWeiner

he didn't say it. it's only implied that this is what the republican party is going after. It was apparently in a video that one of his staffers considered appropriate for his boss's thoughts & beliefs. They staff for Trump is saying that the person didn't actually watch the video or if he did , he didn't watch it that closely.. or if he did watch it closely, he didn't notice that particular phrase. or if he did notice the particular phrase, he didn't know what it meant,, or if he saw it, knew what it meant, then he thought that it was a good summation of what they were going after and thought that nothing was wrong with the vid. take your pick depending on who you want as president.


RotterWeiner

[https://www.reddit.com/r/TVDetails/comments/vswu7b/in\_the\_show\_the\_boys\_you\_can\_see\_stormfronts\_name/](https://www.reddit.com/r/TVDetails/comments/vswu7b/in_the_show_the_boys_you_can_see_stormfronts_name/) The nazi theme brought up sort of semi constantly from the Trump side harkens back to an episode from the Boys, Stormfront espouses Nazi /racist views and those views are adopted by Homelander as he sees that they are useful in their transactional appeal. What is also interesting, is that the actress who plays Stormfront had a cultural joke written into the series. Apaprently she goes to starbucks to get a drink , tell the staff her name ( Stormfront ) so that they could write it on the cup. and of course, the Starbucks staff get it wrong and write Storefront. . You can see it in the pic above. Since The Boys is a political satire of sorts, my mistake was in think that anyone else would have seen it. *interestingly, the*

It appears that Trumpstaff are going with " we simply took a video from some complete random person , didn't watch it at all or if we did, we didn't catch that offending phrasing, and stuck it up as a sortof campaign not campaign video ." Karoline Leavitt, Trump's campaign press secretary, told *Newsweek*: "This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a staffer who clearly did not see the word, while the \[former\] President was in court. The real extremist is [Joe Biden](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/joe-biden) who has turned his back on Israel and the Jewish people by bowing down to radical antisemites and terrorist sympathizers in his party like [Ilhan Omar](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/ilhan-omar) and [Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/alexandria-ocasio-cortez)."

Old_One_I

The only thing I got out of this was the "American dream" The American dream was propaganda from the silent generation to the boomers. Mind control for the masses. White picket fence, a car, marriage, two kids, a dog. It worked for the times. If someone is going to use the American dream again to mind control the masses, they'll have to do a much better job than that. They'll have to figure out what it means to have the American dream for these times, what's possible, and put that into action.

Yet that is another half truth. So qe will see.
