Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[Edge-]

Why are they even entertaining this crap? Why give a platform and free airtime to these bozos?

Utter desperation. And because I guess Giuliani wants to send a lot of folks, likely struggling financially or psychologically, to jail for perjury.

You're utterly delusional and uneducated if you think socialism is a good thing. The amount of soyboy libtards on this gaming forum is sickening. This coming from an independant who sees both sides and despises the new candy-ass pc culture.

It's cool to show people's brains exploding out of their head, or some hot abs on a hunk, but a pair of tits is forbidden. - Modern Feminist Idiot

I suppose the irony of posting on an ALT ACCOUNT about liberals being pansies is lost on the ban evading alt.

I'm guessing he's just bandying out any Trump supporter he can find so that he can keep getting paid 20,000 dollars a day

Sorry if this was already covered already, but I just can't even keep up with these "Trump lawyers" but not really "trump lawyers", so it's no longer Venezuela and Chavez and Soros I guess, now it's communist China, and trump should declare martial law?

Ya Michael Flynn was pushing the exact same thing. The Republican party continues to be the party of traitors and rebels for their Cheetos crusted king. Just like their spiritual ancestors in the Confederacy they turn traitor on the U.S. when it benefits them. Sickens me I ever voted for this party and I swear on my life I will never vote for a Republican till the day I die.

I voted in that ‘who will win run off’ poll, as both going GOP... but, now that Trump supporters have been trying to sabotage republicans... I think democrats have a shot... a very good shot...

One can only hope the snake eats it's own tail till it is no more.

Want to see Giuliani’s level of witness? Here we have what appears to be an intoxicated woman “testifying” in Michigan.

I mean again if this was a movie or Netflix series these characters would be made up in some type of satire of overthrowing a US election. No need to embellish.

On that note, I'm supremely interested in how historical pieces of this period in American politics will portray this whole affair.

No, I mean the city counsil or whatever the fuck that was. Why are they allowing this whole circus?

That thumping sound you hear was the Trump campaign throwing crackpot lawyer Lin Wood under the bus.

Loyalty is for the serfs and the minions for a king does not defend his servants his servants defend the king.

I think what finally got the GOP to demand Trump to throw Wood under the bus was Wood urging MAGA cultists to boycott the Georgia runoffs next month, threatening the GOPs power.

I was literally just commenting earlier today about how I couldn't imagine Lin Wood wasn't trolling after his appearance in GA.

If it ends up he's just trolling the shit out of the Trump team then I'm gonna start up a fortune telling business. But only for like, the next 48 hours or however long this potentially lasts.

Edit: Nevermind, seems like Breitbart being Breitbart - https://www.opensecrets.org/donor-lo...&page=2&sort=D

Donations are very clearly to Republicans for a long time, with only some early Democratic donations.

Even 3rd wave? The ones that want to drop gays from lgbt since they're not oppressed enough. Not to mention TERFS.

You are talking about second wave. It was second wage feminism that got a misandrist flair on some edges. Got some "Buff Lesbo no need for men but for reproduction" participants. Third wave tend to be inclusive as fuck, and expand to cover said groups you just mentioned.
First wave = Political Rights.
Second wave = womens liberation, with some strange twist and turns on the edges.
Third wave = inclusivity and equity.

To just go extreme shorthand. There's a great description of some Second Wave feminism's less tasteful parts in the Handmaid's Tale. (narrators mother and her circle). A book published, partly, as a reaction to the reaction to second wave feminism from the evangelical parts of the US and as a critique on some parts of second wave feminists who lost sight of what they should fight for.

But if you respect women, and want to treat them as human and not objects. You should approve of feminism.
If you want men to have an equal chance of getting custody of children after a divorce, you should approve of feminism. Etc

Okay, you're going to want to go through this Twitter thread, not only because it's hilarious, but so you can see pictures of the people testifying about "election fraud" and make a mental note about the type of people who believe this shit. Note how similar they all are.

https://twitter.com/TepidButterASMR/...928731142?s=20

Take a note that most are easily in their late 40's and older, almost like there's a pattern on who believes in the "fraud."

[jakeic]

I would absolutely love for that to be the case, but... I'm sure the vast majority of republicans will still just blindly show up and vote R. Enough to make it anything but a sure thing for the democrats.

I think the bigger story here is that Georgia might be waking up to the fact that the leopard face eating party will eat any face. I am confident that the Republicans will win both seats still, but this year will be hard to ignore in the future.

Cause she can have a perjury charge while Rudy wouldn't, she's just a scapegoat.

Yep, that's what I was referencing, but you're missing onnnne more thing: they all appear to be white.

[postman1782]

In an unsurprising bullshit hearing, not only did Rudy have a drunk "star witness" that had no evidence of fraud, though she claimed that there was at least 100k fraudulent votes. Another witness went FULL RACIST and demanded that we have photo ID, simply because "All Chinese look the same". Yes, the racist Republicans strike again and not surprising he is trying to help overturn the election, with this racist bullshit.

I don’t think that means anything, tbh. Unless you’re suggesting that majority of Trump supporters are white? As you may recall, a large percentage of Latino voters from Texas and Florida, voted for Trump.

That isn’t so much a racial thing as a cultural aversion to anything labeled as “communist” or “socialist” that a lot of Cuban Americans seem to display.
