I'm really hoping Harris wins, and we can make politics boring again. I know that if Trump wins, we'll hear about all the insanity he will put in place for the next four years.
Sure, if he loses, Trump will cry foul, but that doesn't have the same legs as it would if he wins.
I just want Trump to be some washed out TV "celebrity" and politics to be as entertaining as it always is: not very.
I'm not American and all I hear about right now is American politics. Y'all need to figure your shit out.
The worst one for me is that there's some chode near me that displays a flag on his house fucking bragging that he's voting for a convicted felon.
They're proud of the fact that they're supporting a criminal, and I bet they'd be ok with him if he was an open Nazi as well (they're just fine with the same tactics and having literal Nazi flag wavers in their midst).
Don't forget the fake communists bragging that they won't support genocide and that's why they're not voting.
Hey, socialism angels: do you drive a car? Do you emit carbon dioxide that is projected to cause 1 billion deaths, mainly in poorer countries, by 2050? If so, why do you support genocide? You refuse to support genocide one day every 4 years, but actively participate the other 1460?
Yeah its one thing if youre a trump supporter because then you are just a sheep but i actually dont understand whats going on in the head if those who have to think about the decision
...again
For the third time in a row
I kept trying to tell people that polls and surveys is just astrology for math nerds

Drive home from democracy and child, reflecting.. this is all a referendum on whether we choose kindness or selfishness going into the scarcity age. If evil wins today, it's not just about this government and this population. It validates whether the uprisings in Europe are a lag behind or a forward trend.
I know! It seemingly shouldn't be too hard of a choice. Who the Fuck would trust a career politician!?
/J (because scarily, it's needed)
I think it’s time to update and broaden my filter range on Lemmy for the next few years…
I have qualms about casting Harris as a "career" politician. He first election for DA was in 2003. To get from running for DA to running for US President in 21 years is a very short ride. She was born in 1964.
Hell, Trump ran for President (Reform Party) in 2000, so he's been a "politician" longer than Harris. So if she's a "career politician," then so is he.
Not that there's anything wrong with being a politician for a long time, as long as the politician is serving her constituents to their satisfaction and avoids corruption.
And for some reason, this is called democracy. I love how fellow Americans this time of the 4 year cycle. They become more self aware and stop name-calling people from other authoritarian states.
Well fuck.
Living in the thick of it and that's how I feel 😮💨.
i love you
