The Real timschochet

@jerryskids you are wrong about most political things IMO, but dead right about nuclear energy. The green folks are hypocrites for continually rejecting nuclear energy when it’s the obvious, most viable alternative to carbon fuels. That being said it’s important to note that whatever we do with nukes will require a substantial government investment- one that neither Democrats or Republicans have shown any willingness to make. And of course if we manage to conquer nuclear fusion (and there have been hopeful signs in recent years in that regard) then it probably doesn’t make much sense to invest heavily in fission since it will be outdated anyhow. (Actually as I’ve mentioned before I believe that the development of fusion will solve ALL of our energy problems, and environmental problems, and most other problems in the world as well. It will change human society dramatically for the better; we really should get on this.)

That’s actually a very good line.

OK Baghdad Bob.

Link to where I ever wrote don’t believe the polls?

In about 45 minutes Kamala will be on MSNBC with Stephanie Ruhle, an interview on the economy. If you watch it with an open mind I doubt you’ll come away still thinking she’s dumb.

Some of these Republicans have gotten so ugly. It’s really kind of scary. This is the sort of dude that should never be near political office. Yet somebody elected the moron.

Not everyone who thinks Kamala Harris is dumb is a racist. But every racist thinks Kamala Harris is dumb. These are a lot of the same people who, in football, question the intelligence of every black quarterback and every black head coach. These are the same folks who bring up the words “DEI hire” at every opportunity. Deep in their psyches, perhaps hidden even from themselves, they just don’t think a black person can possibly be as smart as a white person. But most people are not bigots and hopefully we’ll demonstrate that in November.

Reuters/Ipsos Harris takes a 7 point lead national poll: https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/4898135-vice-president-harris-trump-lead/amp/ Other national polls are closer. But if this one is accurate Harris will be our next President. It’s almost mathematically impossible to win the popular vote by 7 points and still lose the electoral college. That won’t happen.

FTR I knew you were joking. But Hardcore is not. And there are tons of people who think liike him, which just proves my point. There are far too many racists and sexists still in our society, and Trump plays up to them.

Anytime you in particular post something like this it only confirms my confidence in my own judgment.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna172555 Love this, really hope Trump and Vance face prison time for what they’ve done here.

Thats pretty typical for this poster.

It is a constant meme in our society that black people are stupid. It is a constant meme that women are not as smart as men. Our society has plenty of latent racism and sexism, Trump plays to this all the time.

I still don’t think Biden has dementia. So far as my opinions go, I don’t expect you to trust me. Particularly not on subjective subjects like trying to figure out a person’s intelligence level based on what we see on television. I can only tell you what I think and assure you it’s an honest opinion. Beyond that, if you think my reasoning is sound on any particular issue then hopefully you’ll be open to that. If you don’t think my reasoning is sound then you won’t. Simple.

Even Todd would disagree with you.

I will bet you $1,000 that Kamala Harris wins the popular vote.

Dude Well maybe you meant Michael Palin?

Soros is a liberal capitalist. He should be regarded as a great hero due to his fight against Communism. Instead, mainly because of anti-semitism, he is regarded as a villain. Which is really sad. With the possible exceptions of Dr. Fauci and Hillary Clinton, no public figure in modern times has been treated more unjustly.

I think she’s brighter than Biden or George W Bush. She’s not smarter than Obama or Hillary but few are. She’s about at Reagan’s level of intelligence (and equal to him in honor and integrity.) She’ll be a good President.

Harris remains in excellent shape: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/national/ The gender gap is massive (which is depressing for men.)

Laughable. I don’t think you’re qualified at all because you have let your political prejudices influence your judgment. Everyone who has worked with this woman has said she’s extremely bright and I could see it by watching the debate. She’s much smarter than Trump who comes off as a moron.

She’s extremely bright. But she’s also a black woman, so some people are going to think she’s stupid.

Probably But I always think that most people, liberals and conservatives alike, are decent and don’t seek harm on others.

Except that you wrote “25-50% of the black vote” not 25% of black men under 50 (which I strongly doubt anyhow.)

This is like that old Star Trek episode “Mirror Mirror” right? You’re Spock with the goatee?
