I've been of the opinion that the only way Trump could lose the red hat base is to be caught on video or audio completely slagging them and revealing himself to be the big phony we know he is but his lapdog media carefully shields from the base. The red hats really, truly believe Trump loves the America, loves Jesus, loves them, and sacrificed so much of his business opportunities so he could work for $1 a year as president for no other reason than to Make America Great Again. That said, all they would have to do is claim AI manipulation of video and audio to reconcile it with their commitment to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romad1 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 This is really fun. the extended threads where they play each state's song...that DJ was really good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romad1 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 (edited) Here’s every state’s DNC roll call ‘walk-up song’ – NBC Chicago I could see so many different songs for each of the big states but generally these were really good. 7 Nation Army would have been great for Michigan but Lose Yourself was great. Mr. Brightside for Nevada had me ready to have another Michigan natty. Edited August 21 by romad1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon as the guy said that I was hoping he would give a nod to Ali and say, "I don't know what 'replicant' means, but if it's good, I'm it." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if Trump says no he's not, follow-up question would be, so you do support an immediate cease fire to prevent untold thousands more deaths in both Gaza and Israel, correct?

chasfh Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I don’t know exactly how the Republicans are going to respond to the events of last night, what with the excellent roll call and everything, but if I had to guess, I’d guess they would say that Democrats just want to party while the world burns down around them, and only Trump can stop the burning. Something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oblong Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I'm noticing that every time Trump and Vance talk they have law enforcement behind them. That's sending an authoritarian message. Get the people used to having LEO or Military people backing what they say to insinuate a "or else" capitulation by the people. "Oh, we better listen... or we'll go to jail" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romad1 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 so, the real flagship poll of Michigan for years was EPIC MRA. I saw that their last iteration had Trump leading back before all the churn of the Harris transition. That will bear watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame money hungry ministers who became power hungry as well. Escalating their message from "love one another" to give us more and more money to build larger temples to themselves. Which then escalated into schools and universities as self monuments... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I ask if they know any of the other 33 amendments and it's funny how I am never corrected on that number. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Oh, we better listen... or we'll go to jail" Are they aware that Project 2025 would have them replaced with the Army ? You know, having the Army in every city policing things. Yeah, that's normal. Weirdos. Let them do this. The only people that are impressed by this are people they already have. Again, they keep preaching to the converted and alienating women as often as they can. The one group that decides elections these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oblong Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Protesting peaks in the spring and early summer because it's something to do outside. Its getting warmer, school's getting out.... everyone feels good. But by August those people are bored and have moved on to something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
