Who will win the 2024 US election?

[brogdale]

He doesn't, but his outriders do and it's horrifying.

Yes, and now complete control of the state apparatus

 

[JimW]

... by Elon fucking Musk and the other tech bros...

Oh yeah, forgot we'll have to look at his smug face all happy. As if it wasn't bad enough.

 

[Indeliblelink]

Finished his speech & then played YMCA. Odd

This is the worst morning since I woke up the Brexit result. It honestly couldn't be worse.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

what a difference 65 minutes make!

(even if everyone else had spotted it at least 70 minutes earlier)

Eh?

This is much worse than him winning in 2016…

He's weirdly camp, especially for someone who's going to declare open season on LGBTQ people.

 

[kebabking]

RFK given the Health etc dept to dismantle, Musk given free reign to do god knows what damage to the economy. It's one scary proposal.

Unless you've got close family/friends in the US, just write it off. It's done,

We're going to have problems enough in Europe without borrowing them from across the pond.

It's done, it's over - battle lost. Concentrate on the next one

.... it can always get worse ... anyone ever read Maus? After the tragedy upon tragedy set out in volume 1 the last words "...and here my problems began"

This. The groundwork already set out, I imagine Trump will "be retired" by his handlers. Put the younger Vance in place.

Nobody was capable of handling him last time round. I can't imagine that now is any different. By fair means or foul, he may die or they could call in the doctors and have him taken away in a straight jacket.

 

[rubbershoes]

I need to drown my sorrows, just checked when my local micro-pub opens, expecting it to be 11am, but it's 9am, way too early, but I am actually considering it.

Have one for me

This. Bernie Sanders was their last chance and they threw it back in his face.

"President Xi you may fire when ready."

 

[Calamity1971]

Because the real enemy are the liberals, neo liberals and other wrong uns who hate democracy. Its time for a purge.

It's time for an urban disco, with hugs and love ins. Barefoot dances and incense sticks. .

The idea that Trump is another "Gold digger of 1933" was hysterical nonsense eight years ago and it hasn't improved with age.

Who are his handlers?

sorry no idea what youre talking about
but as i say, anyone thinking today is as bad as it can get....the rest of the century is looking a lot worse

Spliffs and splitism.

 

[Skinny Ethel]

Ronald Mcdonald and the bloke that makes man Nappies.

Who are his handlers?

Gog and Magog?

 

[Artaxerxes]

Who are his handlers?

Whoever was last talking to him

 

[Calamity1971]

Fucking hippy!

Tofu skewers and ylang ylang mood enhancers. You in?

 

[pbsmooth]

What a position of privilege you must have (and lack of compassion) to think a man who has waged war on immigrants, LGBT people and women’s rights won’t change anything…

<backs away>

 

[Artaxerxes]

Bloody 'ell have you all been drinking all night or something?

This thread is completely nuts.

Not much happened when Trump was in power last. He has no programme. It's not a big deal.

If you didn’t notice what he changed and ruined last time that’s on you

 

[_Russ_]

Why is everyone infighting? As if tonight isn't bad enough.

10 years, you must have a theory by now

 

[Idris2002]

I'm referring to the year that Hitler came to power in Germany by alluding to the famous Hollywood movie, "Gold diggers of 1933".

Yes, when he was elected last time I thought it didn't matter too much, I figured he would be lazy and ineffectual and not do much beyond a lot of bluster. But I was wrong, and I expect this time will be a lot worse.

I have beer in exchange for hugs

What are you on about?

Brexit was a success and the will of the people.

Democracy!
