Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[Lenonis]

Better lube your ass for november lad because we are going to go hard and deep.

Bold assertion when there is zero evidence to support it an a metric ton to show your dear leader is in deep trouble. Even a pandemic couldn't save his approval numbers.

[Felya]

Bolded part is fake news and you fell for it. And what makes you think that the 2014 situation is even remotely the same as now?

How many times is Trump going to lie to you, before you stop believing him? As you can see above, Schumer called it in January. What the heck do you think Trump was calling a hoax, if not democrats demanding action from Trump? The whole fucking reason Trump called it a Democrat hoax, was because Democrats were demanding action. Was Jay Inslee sounding the alarm, when Trump called him a snake? How many cases does Florida and a Georgia have compared to Washington? Why did their governors saying their refusal to close down, was due to Trump advice, when plenty of governors have long shot down?

Fake news my ass... Trump now has amnesia and can’t remember the 6 rallies he has in March and February. Let me guess... he never pushed that malaria drug that now shows an increased death rate, was not pushed by Trump either? There is no Hannity or Giuliani saying it’s 100% effective? All cgi created by NASA...

Better lube your ass for november lad because we are going to go hard and deep.

Oh, sure... but, when he asks your hand in marriage afterwards, that just can’t be legal. Well... I got one thing to say... put a ring on it...

It's literally an appeal towards willful ignorance. When faced with information that contradicts their lies and bullshit, they always seem to resort to some form of "Trump2020!!!!"

Are you sure? Read it again... this is something a construction worker would scream at a woman walking bye a construction site. Other than the “lad” part... not that there is anything wrong with it. It’s a “cat call”...

You have been warned. These definitely sound like fighting words.

Again, are you sure? I think he wants to skip the date... if you know what I’m saying. Quarantine is a lonely town in France...

It's concerning given the tendency of the right wing to resort to violence when they don't get their way. How much damage will they do when Trump loses the election and they convince themselves the election was stolen?

Meh, I think most will start to whine about how much government is spending, swear they are actual conservatives, and lie about all the shit they support.

Judging by the rhetoric, I’d at least invest in a chastity belt.

Yeah, I guess if the pattern holds... They'll go back to caring about deficits and executive power and suddenly they never voted for or supported Trump.

But...Trump doesn't seem like the type to go down without fighting and I can see him calling for his supporters to try to take over by any means and pull any and every conspiracy theory under the sun to gaslight. I do hope the transition of power is quiet but I really can the potential for things to get ugly.

[Hobb]

Do you remember when elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris where hot shit and then suddenly weren't ? A lot can change in a single debate and frankly i don't see Joe standing up to Trump. And do not forget his approval right now is higher then what he started with.

True it's 1% higher than his normal average

He was at 42.5% average approval and now sits at 43.6%. He did get a +3% rally around the flag boost, but those historically quickly disappear. And as of now only 1.1% of his boost remains.

If they try that, then they will be put down for the violent terrorists that they are.

That is true but also a good amount of them are lazy, obese , unhealthy , poor, and uneducated.

Violence most Likely will be localized to their local communities.

Not to mention the comforts of life today are nicer then worrying about being shot or having your family shot at.

The problem is it doesn't take many people to create a lot of violence. But yes -- twitter "activism" doesn't translate to real life action.

I really really am not ready to suddenly see endless postings from our resident right wingers decrying government spending and presidential abuses of power when a democratic president is in office. I know hypocrisy is basically the brand of the right wing at this point but I just won't be able to absorb how much rank hypocrisy will be displayed.

I mean it's already starting. The number of Trump supporters concern trolling about Biden's mental state is mind numbing.

Only one response is ever needed...

"But, you are a Trump supporter..."

It undermines any argument that they may every make about fiscal responsibility, personal behavior, or mental state.

Except as we all know they'll suddenly have never supported Trump and we're just lying because we can't argue their actual point blah blah blah.

I simply call them out for the liars and bullshitters that they are, and mock them incessantly. It's why I don't speak to my mother (and she will not speak to me). People will always try and revise their history, but it's a lot harder when collecting screenshots and evidence is so damned easy.

I've lost a few friends over this, and I'm fine with that. If people don't want to be called out on their bullshit, then they shouldn't risk it in the first place.

Jesus Christ Machismo just talk to your mother lol... You can reason with her and work things out. Life is too short to be angry.

Nah, she's a shitty racist who spams fake news. I see no reason to hang out with racists and liars.

Then why are you here?

Not everyone is a racist, and I'm still free to call them out for lying, and doing such things.

Or, is that an admission on your part?
