Pre-match: Can't believe it took this long for this thread, the 2024 Presidential election thread!

Goddamn. Like, goddamn.

A new milestone reached tonight that is crazy.

$1 billion has been raised on ActBlue since the hour that Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race on July 21.

The debate thread.

 

Probably the confusing thing is that the Biden v fascist debate thread was in this forum, but this debate was in the other forum

 

Truth

 

Ugh...Ok, I'll look for it.

And there's a new guy who is quite ignore-worthy. See if you can guess who he is before anyone responds to him!

Trump has led in 3 of the last 25 polls in Wisconsin and Nate Silver has him as the favorite there lol

 

The irony of this statement is off the fucking charts.

Nate Silver needs to justify Peter Thiel money, apparently.

 

More Kamala advertising material:

Jesus. What did Ike do to the Poles to lose 20% over his first term?

 

How could this data possibly have been derived???

I’m especially puzzled by the poor performance of Catholic Al Smith.

 

Probably Hoover being director of the American Relief Administration, which brought food to many central and eastern European nations after World War I, particularly Poland.

 

Former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales endorsed Kamala Harris in Politico, warning that Donald Trump is “perhaps the most serious threat to the rule of law in a generation.

 

Laura Loomer is not just a "right wing agitator", she is a nut job conspiracy theorist who should be institutionalized. Funny enough, MTG and her are engaged in a huge online fight this week since MTG called her out on.....her racism!! MTG calling Loomer racist is the epitome of irony too. This is the state of the Trump campaign and the republican party.

“She was on the plane with him the day of the debate and on the ground with him the morning after. Some Republicans are worried she had something to do with what happened in between,” Semafor reports.
“Laura Loomer, the right-wing agitator known for egging on Donald Trump’s most inflammatory instincts, has been regularly popping up around the former president. After a debate in which Trump shouted about false viral rumors of pet-eating Haitians in an Ohio town, her potential influence is drawing more scrutiny from both parties.”
“One person close to the Trump campaign said they were ‘100%’ concerned about her exacerbating Trump’s weaknesses.”

 

This is an in-depth article by Greg Sargent, and a pretty chilling one, on what could a second Trump presidency may look like from an authoritarian standpoint. Worth reading.

Trump’s Slow-Burn Authoritarianism

You’ve read about the scary horrors of a Trump second term. But a legal war of attrition that harasses MAGA’s enemies and transforms government info into propaganda could prove more insidious and harder to mobilize against.

On Inauguration Day we will have 6 living ex-Presidents assuming Harris wins and Carter doesn't die. I think the US has been at this point before but I can't remember when.

 

5 is the record.

Taylor Swift Tells Fans to Vote Again

“A day after endorsing Kamala Harris for president and urging her fans to vote regardless of whom they supported, Taylor Swift reiterated that call in her acceptance speech at the Video Music Awards last night,” the New York Timesreports.

Said Swift: “The fact that this is a fan-voted award and you voted for this, I appreciate it so much. And if you are over 18, please register to vote for something else that’s very important coming up — the 2024 presidential election.”

 

That's a 8/28-9/5 poll? Debate was 9/10. We won't be seeing good polling affects from the debate until the end of the month.
