Same here - and I wasn't any more liberal when I came out than when I went in. Of course, I was plenty liberal when I went in, so...

I remember seeing it a ton when it first came out, but not recently.

Just about any female weight lifter -- whether competitive or fitness trainer -- that I know would make him look like the weak old man he is without straining or complaining and still look good. And I know at least 4 of them.

I can juggle any weights that guy would struggle with, and I don't even excersise. A female weight lifter would humiliate him (and probably me as well, but I'm not sneering at them.)

One of our dancers is a former weight lifter. She's in her late 60s and could probably kick all his family's asses, and look damn good doing it.

Does anybody know if tfg is still making his rally audiences wait an inordinate amount of time before he makes his messianic entrance? It used to be an hour or so.

Likely. But I don't think it is tfg doing it. It is par for the course with politicians (Joe shows up late too, as did Obama). It's a security measure I imagine.

And, more to the point, it's also about how TFG continues to phone-it-in with regards to his performances. He is lackluster at best.

Way to spoil the mood.

An ya, his delivery was never very good but you could see that it was at least entertaining if you could stomach him. But feck sake, it's just pathetic now. A load of nasal sounding whining, his elbows superglued to his ribs, and rotating his entire body back and forth as he looks at his teleprompters as he can barely turn his head.

President Biden is trailing Donald Trump in five of the six critical battleground states a year before the election, a Times/Siena poll found.

Trump allies proposing deploying military to the streets if he wins in 2024: report

With an eye on a possible win in the 2024 presidential election, allies of former Donald Trump are pitching plans to quell public unrest over his return to the Oval Office by using the military to put down potential protests the moment he takes power.

According to a report from the Washington Post, Trump insiders are floating the possibility of invoking the Insurrection Act immediately after being sworn in.

The report also notes that there have been discussions with Trump on how to use the Justice Department to go after former officials who served under him during his single term including former Attorney General Bill Barr, ex-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark A. Milley and even one of his former lawyers, Ty Cobb.

Pressed about the idea of using the DOJ to go after the former president's perceived political enemies, law professor Saikrishna Prakash, of the University of Virginia told the Post: "It would resemble a banana republic if people came into office and started going after their opponents willy-nilly. It’s hardly something we should aspire to.”

The Post is reporting, "The discussions underway reflect Trump’s determination to harness the power of the presidency to exact revenge on those who have challenged or criticized him if he returns to the White House," adding that he hasn't been shy about his intentions, telling a crowd in New Hampshire recently, "This is third-world-country stuff, ‘arrest your opponent. And that means I can do that, too.”

I won't lose any sleep over this so far out, but it is concerning. I think it mostly speaks to the political stupidity in this country. Not that that's going to change in the next year.

A guy on a discord channel I was on was breathlessly dragging up every poll that was bad for Biden for a couple of months, and I cot tired of it, so I started looking at the polls. And in generally they were badly flawed, even to the point of having eual or more Republicans or "republican leaning independents on it.

Yes, the NYT is willing to lie to get a horse race narrative.

Plus he posted a poll to this week to show he was unbiased that showed TFG 6 points behind Biden - one that actually included the third party candidates rather than a head to head comparison. It turns out that Robert Keneddy is sucking support away from Trumpet.

Army in the streets? I think they missed the stats about the headcount of the resident armed forces, even when Republican governors thought of activating state forces. I also think that there may be a significant numcer of noshows.

on Jan 20?

If he were to win IFFF I don't think people would wait until the 20th to show their unhappiness

if he were to become president again I think the world would end. At least America as we know it.

Gaslighting across the United States…

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-11-05/ ... /103067228

Donald Trump has claimed that he won all 50 states in the 2020 US election at a Florida event where two of his rivals for the Republican presidential primaries were booed for suggesting the party should dump the former president before his legal woes catch up with him.

Key points:

The former president continues to peddle discredited conspiracy theories about fraud in the 2020 election
Mr Trump is the overwhelming favourite to be the Republican Party presidential nominee for 2024
He is expected to appear as a witness this week in a New York civil fraud trial against the Trump Organization
Mr Trump faces 91 criminal charges across four indictments, two of which are related to election interference.

He is set to testify on Monday at his New York civil fraud trial, related to his business dealings in the state, after two of his children took to the witness stand last week.

Despite soundly losing the 2020 election to Joe Biden by more than seven million votes — 306 to 232 in the electoral college — Mr Trump continues to push discredited claims of widespread election fraud.

"We won, the last time, 50 states, think of it, 50 states," he told the Freedom Summit, outside Orlando, Florida, on Saturday night.

"We won every state. We then did great in the election. We got 12 million more votes or so … 12 million more votes than we got the first time.
