I’m not worked up by it. At all. Kamala Harris is unelectable. But if you look at what happened, it’s kind of focked up. A few oligarchs and party elders basically forced the nominee out. Not because he is incapacitated. If that was the case, they’d also force him to resign. No, they did it simply because they (rightfully) concluded he couldn’t win. So why even have a Primary process? Just have the moneybags and party elders pick the candidate 4 months before the election. Get the media to convince the people it’s the best choice. People like Tim fall in line and say it’s a democratic process. Everyone’s happy.

I don’t. Registered Democrats vote for electors. The electors are committed to the candidate the voters chose unless he quits. Then they’re free to vote for who they choose. They’re choosing the vice-President in this case. The vast majority of Democratic voters who voted for Biden want this; I would guess close to 99%. So no I don’t think this is anti-Democratic at all.

It’s HILARIOUS when they accuse Trump of being a threat to democracy. It was the Democrats who rigged the 2016 Primary process and focked Bernie. It was the Democrats who changed election rules in blue states like PA in 2020. And in 2024 it’s the Democrats who, when confronted with the reality that Biden couldn’t beat Trump, forced him out and anointed Kameltoe as the nominee, without her ever winning a single delegate. EVER. They literally interfere in every focking election.

They've put me out to pasture boys. They know I'm retiring at the end of October. So they put my heir apparent into a "acting" me position for the next 120 days. They pretty much want him running the day to day. They've put me on revamping the policy/sops that haven't been touched since 2003. I'm supposed to help him with his questions, and mentor here or there. Honestly he'll do a way better job than me. He's still young enough and has enough time left to get after it. I'm not complaining... gives me time to lift 5x a week... cruise the interwebs. Though... I honestly can't freaking wait until October. This is a little brutal. Being no busy for the first time in 26 years is dragging... Plus... I miss my family. It's been two months since I left Japan. Going back the 1st week of August for 3 weeks, and then coming back to finish up. As of this week... 100% debt free... no house or car payments... no credit card debt... nada. It's a little weird feeling.

For those who say she is not qualified to be President, was Trump qualified when you voted for him? I'm not saying I think she's actually a good candidate but I can't help but see the hypocrisy here.

You're so full of BS your eyes are brown. You just tried to make the argument that STANDARDIZED tests were a bad measuring stick. What's next, clocks are bad at telling time? Dogs make terrible pets? You're a joke and everyone sees that what you have to say is just hot air up liberal rear.

Oh bullsh!t. Now you’re just making an argument for the sake of making an argument. I judge people by how they perform. I think that as a prosecutor, an attorney general, and a senator she’s performed very well. Nobody performs good or bad as a VP, it’s a ceremonial job.

We get it. She seems smart to YOU.

This thread has become so much fun to read. You guys go with she’s stupid, inauthentic, a DEI hire. See how far this gets you. Loving this. It’s amazing how an election can change within just a few days. I would say that at this point she has to be the favorite to win.

The same people who run Biden run Kamala. They just changed horses because the first one died.

Yeah that dude straight up killed her. Definitely had to be charged. What a POS.

The answer is no. This story line will die off quickly. He called into Kamala’s campaign stop today and sounded almost happy about not having to deal with this shet to be honest.

He'll come up with some nickname he thinks is clever, and his supporters will eat it up and find it funny. Trump now is the oldest person to ever run for president, so the age question shifts to him, as does the focus on what he says. We are just beginning to see what appears to be a very good presidential candidate in Harris, her cheerfulness and her smiles, particularly when she's sticking it to Trump like she did in her speech. She's quickly garnering the black vote, the women vote and perhaps even the young-adult vote. What a remarkable turnabout in a presidential campaign. Can't wait to see whom she picks as a running mate.

I'm particularly fond of this clip. I love her already!

He just called in to Kamala’s speech. Sounded fine, just a little hoarse. Cognitively he’s fine, just slower and tired. He quit because he knew he might lose due to lack of energy. But as President for the next six months (until Kamala takes over) he’ll be fine.

Yes. Trump was actually OVERQUALIFIED. That’s why they attacked and hounded him.

Then please tell us of her accomplishments as a prosecutor, AG and senator. We are all eager to hear them.

Her approval ratings, within a week or so, will be well over 50%. Calling it now. Whole new ballgame, you guys just don’t see it yet.

Which is fine if you want to be an ambulance chaser, or Worms. I expect the elite to pass their first time, as my cousin did. In CA.

Yes, another tranny thread.

It is a good idea. I will try to set something up this week. I tend to get busy and drift away from here and the contests keep me remembering to check in.

You guys get someone who can read someone else's speech and that sends shivers up your spine. I get it, it's been over 3 years since you've had someone who can read, but this is getting a little ridiculous. Enjoy your moment, the disappointment will be real in November.

Sure buddy. You're like the Fani Willis of the GC.

there are enough of you saying this that I am forced to admit its not as crazy as I thought. I was pretty sure at the very least that the 4 big WR would likely go ahead of him but I guess not so much for the record he just went 1.04 in the July PPR Mock

Not necessarily a prize needed. As we’ve seen in the Timmy betting fiasco, bragging rights is good enough most of the time. He just sets good parameters for these and is fair. @Bill E.
