2024 Election Campaign MEGATHREAD

Post by Doctor CamNC4Me »

I thought I might as well start a megathread on the current and upcoming campaigns. To kick it off:

https://www.mediaite.com/news/desantis- ... tter-what/
If Trump loses, he will say it’s stolen no matter what,” @RonDeSantis
Trump famously declared that Cruz had stolen the 2016 Iowa Caucus from him before repeating that stunt on a much grander scale in 2020 after losing the presidency to Joe Biden.

“Ted Cruz didn’t win Iowa, he illegally stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong any [sic] why he got more votes than anticipated. Bad!” tweeted Trump the day after the 2016 Iowa Caucus. He later deleted his original post before reposting it without the word “illegally” in it.

“Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified,” he continued.

A recording of a Nov. 17, 2020, telephone call surfaces in which former President Donald Trump is heard pressuring two Michigan officials not to certify his election loss to Joe Biden.
McDaniel, a native of Michigan, told the two canvassers: “If you can go home tonight, do not sign it. … We will get you attorneys.”

Trump added: “We’ll take care of that.”
Not that I expect any Maggat to admit what Trump and Co. did in 2020. Relevancy to the thread? Well. It should be obvious.

I’m tucking this one here, because it’s a brilliant move:

If Biden had said this, well, we know.

Ajax, do you believe Trump is mentally fit to be President in 2025?

I don't think four more years of Bidenomics is a winning message. Neither is four more years of Biden foreign policy, though it is surprising to see the Democrats pushing for military defense spending for the first time in my life. It's almost as surprising as seeing Donald Trump polling better with black and hispanic Americans, better than any Republican in over fifty years.

The good news for Biden and the Democrats is that they don't have to convince people that the last four years aren't Biden's fault. If the American people don't like low wages, high taxes, and a return to feudalism; if legal American citizens don't want a pinko communist economy in which we're all equally poor, there's plenty of people south of the border who do. All Biden and Mayorkas need to do is secure more funding to get them processed quickly enough to overcome a couple percentage points in the polls. The taxpayer funded democrat voter registration machine will open every nursing home, group home, cemetery, illegal immigrant encampment, and they'll find the votes they need to win. They always do. Four years of disastrous policies are nothing to worry about when it comes to getting reelected because the people actually paying the bills don't even have a say. It's an incredible scheme cooked up by the Democrat juggernauts, tax your political opponents to purchase votes and secure power. If that fails, weaponize the IRS, DOJ, and every other previously apolitical institution to take down and silence anyone whose message is more popular. Then label those who perpetrate such tyranny the saviors of democracy. It's a bulletproof scheme.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Typical Ajax never answering a question and then shifting to some alt reality hot take he and his bubble burp to each other.

Anyway. Trump wears diapers.

Former GOP lawmaker Adam Kinzinger has revealed new details about Donald Trump’s alleged bad odour, claiming that he reeks of a combination of several unsavoury scents including “armpits, ketchup, a butt”.

Why do leadership positions seem to be filled by people who should be enjoying retirement? Same with the first presidency in the church, why not bring young people who are in touch with the world a bit better up the ladder sooner? I personally feel that Biden shouldn't be president. I'm not American so, my opinion doesn't matter. I just think he should be spending time with his family.

If the American people don't like low wages, high taxes,
If Trump is elected again, by the end of his term, how much higher will the average American real wage be, in percentage terms, and how much lower will the average American's total Federal tax bill be, in percentage terms?

Do you think the average American will make 15% more under Trump? 10%? How much?

Because that would destroy the family influence peddling scheme.

It's his family who needs him to be President for as long as possible. How many paintings do you think Hunter Biden is going to sell without Joe to throw in the promise of appointment to a sweet government gig into the deal? Do you think Hunter would be willing to work for a mere $1 million/year with his law degree? From what I hear, Jim's wife has expensive tastes as well, and like most Biden's his only real asset is to sell influence from the big guy.

We'll never know because the election has already been rigged. But if your point is that you can't just destroy a country with a scamdemic, socialist policies, a green new deal, a woke and underfunded military of transvestites, and expect it to be 2019 again after one election, then I'd agree with you. My hope would be to see Trump elected and then liberals would ask for a national divorce.
