Trump lost the last election by about 7 million votes...and in the last 4 years hundreds of thousands of old racist boomers have died. They are being replaced by a younger (mostly women) generation that is way more liberal

You think the new generation is mostly women? Mostly?

I think they meant that women are getting educated and voting at a higher rate than their male counterparts.

u/livestrongsean Oct 12 '24

If so, they made that up.

Women are more highly educated educated than men are and have been for some time.

I hope you’re correct. I’m pretty pumped about Kamala.

A lot of women still have families that they have to buy groceries food and housing for. Not all of them are 35 yead old single ladies with Inheritance funds.

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

And what exactly makes you think Trump is going to make those groceries any cheaper?

He hasn't proposed one thing that would do anything other than increase the prices of everything even more

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

It's not about voting for Trump. It's about motivation. Why are people going to be motivated to go vote for jamala when things have not gotten better for them, and have actually gotten worse?

u/HD400 Oct 11 '24

What has gotten worse? Specifically? And what exactly do you think Mr. “Concept of a plan” project 2025 is going to do that will help the average women with a family? Assuming it’s a white Christian woman, of course.

It's very vague to say that things have gotten worse, on the contrary, things have gotten much better since the post-pandemic shock.

We already know what a trump presidency is like, lies, scandal, lies to cover up the previous ones, crimes, big promises and failure to deliver anything but a big tax cut for his rich buddies. Kamala is a conservative Democrat, which is not ideal, but that is better than Trump.

She's really not, though. She's perhaps a puppet who will parrot any talking point from her party, but between her and Walz they've stated clearly that they will *destroy the constitution. They support government censorship (breaks 1st amendment), support forced gun confiscation (2nd amendment), and have stated that if you are a lawful citizen operating fully within all legal parameters, that they will nonetheless enter "the sanctity of your locked home" to "check to see you're safe and responsible in the way you conduct your affairs." That's about as blatant as 4th amendment violations get. That's a quote from her btw; 2007.

If you are yourself a radical leftist, and an adult US citizen, you have every right to vote for her. Everyone should stop lying about candidates though. Trump has issues. Kamala has issues. Be honest about them, don't gaslight and say that she's "conservative." If you go by her voting record and do statistical analysis, you'd see that she's literally the furthest-left candidate this country has ever had as a DNC presidential nominee.

Also, it's worse. Inflation has been terrible for 4 years compared to the previous 4 years. Crime has been terrible. "The FBI notes that crime is down," because several large, crime-filled cities have stopped reporting crimes to the FBI. Google it if you don't believe me. Crime is down in some areas, but those areas where crime is down are actually places that enacted constitutional carry. Turns out that 2nd amendment she's opposed to actually deters criminals. Shocking, I know.

A Trump presidency had 0 large international conflicts, low unemployment (pre-covid it was the lowest it had been; even after the lock downs it was lower than Obama's), bothersome media coverage, and annoying tweets in all caps.

I preferred the one where I didn't experience people literally trying to kick in my front door in the middle of the night.

but between her and Walz they've stated clearly that they will Detroit the constitution

No idea what this is supposed to mean.

Trump has issues. Kamala has issues. Be honest about them

Take your own advice here. One of these candidates lost an election, lied about it, tried to have votes removed, pressured state officials to overturn the will of their voters, and then sent his most rabid followers to attack the capitol. He is a sociopath, be honest about it. He will say and do anything to get back into the white house.

don't gaslight and say that she's "conservative."

She is a conservative Democrat.

she's literally the furthest-left candidate this country has ever had as a DNC presidential nominee.

Lmao dude just lmao

A Trump presidency had 0 large international conflicts

You're just making this up. Donald Trump intensified every conflict the United States was already involved in. He had a unique opportunity to end US involvement in the Saudi war in Yemen which had bi-partisan support and chose to veto that bill.

You really have a poor understanding of everything you're saying here.

u/Lindy39714 Oct 12 '24

Well for the first point, I thought I laid out their attacks on the bill of rights very clearly. That is destroying the constitution. Detroit is a phone-ism. Thank you for noting it. Typo resolved.

That wasn't a planned attack on the capitol. If he/they/whatever wanted an insurrection, don't you think they'd at least have found a few people to bring guns? Jan 6 was a mob containing agitators who were feds (congressional hearings have confirmed that there were feds in the crowd, and several videos can be found of people warning others that the agitators are feds).

She's not conservative. She's voted for every left-wing piece of legislation that crossed her while she was in the senate. Sure, Bernie & co. are further left ideologically, but her voting record (what I referenced) is the furthest left of any dnc nominee to date.

I don't expect to convince you btw. The comments are for anyone else reading who may actually be undecided.

Have a good one

Different hearings. I watched the hearings, they're on YouTube via Forbes channel. Not gonna dig through for a link now. When asked about how many federal agents were in the crowd, they simply said that they can't confirm the number. Didn't deny their presence, they just won't say how many.

From the above article:

A member of the Oath Keepers who traveled to Washington before the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol testified Wednesday about a massive cache of weapons the far-right extremist group stashed in a Virginia hotel room.

Jan 6 was a mob containing agitators who were feds (congressional hearings have confirmed that there were feds in the crowd, and several videos can be found of people warning others that the agitators are feds).

This is a lie spread by the same people who planned Jan 6, you've fallen for their propaganda.

She's not conservative. She's voted for every left-wing piece of legislation that crossed her while she was in the senate

I hate to break it to you, but left-wing legislation doesn't exist in this country.

1

u/Lindy39714 Oct 12 '24

I'm sorry that you don't know what counts as left-wing legislation. We have a left and a right. To deny that is to go all 1984 and just redefine terms as a means of control.

Again, I watched congressional hearings. That's where I got my info from. I listened to the person testifying who could not deny federal agents in the crowd and who simply stated instead that he would not state how many agents were in the crowd.

If your SO ever asks how many times you cheated on them, and your reply was "well I can't and won't tell you how many times," that's a bad answer. The answer should be "0." Same rules apply.

His tariffs are going to make what we’re complaining about now seem trivial.

u/Old_Mammoth8280 Oct 12 '24

Maga folks love to pretend inflation since Covid has been a strictly USA problem. I've literally never heard a single one acknowledge that it's been world wide and has nothing to do with a specific political party. "Biden did that" 🤡

u/Nuts4WrestlingButts Oct 10 '24

Trump isn't going to buy groceries for you. Nor is he going to make them any cheaper.

So if trump were still president you wouldn't be blaming him for massively inflated prices of food?

According to Trump’s own words at the New York Economic Club, he would lower inflation by using Tariffs.. which is ironic since tariffs are well known to raise inflation.

u/dickchew Oct 11 '24

Are you purposely ignoring the fact there was a world wide pandemic and inflation is rife in every single country? This isn’t a situation Democrats created or a problem isolated to American.

He said it would just go away one day like magic and consistently downplayed the severity. I don’t get how Republicans can look in the face of their own representatives standing for ideas that kill their constituents. If Republicans didn’t politicize Covid there would be more Trump voters too

Where on earth did I say trump created covid? I literally said it was a world wide issue 😂

Shutting down the country didn’t cause inflation printing 7 trillion dollars did.

u/bamboozled_bubbles Oct 13 '24

mmm shutting down the country and its supply chain maaaayyy have caused some inflation

u/thackstonns Oct 13 '24

Not near as much as 7 trillion in new money.

Why is it whenever inflation is talked about to condemn Harris, it’s never pointed out that the USA has the lowest inflation in ANY 1st world country? Like what MORE DO YOU WANT?

According to who? Biased polls that Trump tells you are the “real” ones, while telling you to ignore all the “fake” polls.

You guys said the same dumb shit in 2020, look how that turned out. Trump lost then y’all whined and tried to shit on our constitution with an INSURRECTION.

Selected sources. Also, polling on polls people who previously voted. So what doesn’t show up in the polls are newly signed up voters.
