Trump’s association with Laura Loomer should be disqualifying in itself
jerryskids replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
Sure they work. In this case, it points out that she is full of shiot with her "growing up middle class." Also you lied about her approval going "through the roof." It has almost caught up with her disapproval, tho. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/approval/kamala-harris/ You aren't a serious person. -

True. She was too busy working at McDonalds. -

I was going to suggest that you are a Leftist parody bot, but I think our AI technology is more realistic than your posts. -
Raised a Catholic, I'm inclined to prefer a burial, since that was the Church's position when I was young. Also, my mom and dad were both buried. This past spring I went back to my hometown for the first time in at least a decade. I visited my best friend from growing up, my remaining cousin family there, and... the cemetery where my parents and their parents are buried. It was a remarkably cathartic experience to meditate at the gravesite. But... the Church has since changed their position and no longer opposes cremation. And my wife's dad was cremated, and we've had some great family bonding spreading his ashes in various places. Hell, I don't care, I'll be dead. Whatever my wife and kids want is fine with me.

Ohio is sending troopers and $2.5 million to a city that has seen an influx of Haitian migrants
jerryskids replied to Maximum Overkill's topic in The Geek Club
OK. So my problem with your conclusion is that I can't quite follow the timeline. It seems to me that 2+ years ago, the city manager said the above quote. Then since then, a bunch of Haitian migrants were shipped into town, and they filled jobs. What I'm missing is in your first quote, were there people who could do the jobs, but wouldn't? I'm not saying you are wrong in your conclusion. I happen to think that we've, as a nation, created a welfare mindset that is unsustainable. I've said before: welfare only works if people don't want it. That's not where we are. This is a large reason why I oppose Harris and the progressive mindset, which refuses to acknowledge this reality and instead keeps throwing money at people who could work. I think this is a much bigger issue than Haitians eating cats and geese in Ohio. But I wanted to see the specific tie before I went there. -

I've been perhaps too distracted today to follow what you are trying to say. If so I apologize. Can you provide the quote from the Director of workforce development again, or point to it? -
I watched about 1/2 of them. Good stuff. Except that Jackson punk from Denver; someone needs to take him out. He reminds me of Burfict from ASU, cheap shot artist.

jerryskids replied to Maximum Overkill's topic in The Geek Club
Well, no. Perhaps the companies prefer to hire Haitians because they can exploit them more? This is why I asked for links, not your opinionated conclusion. -

jerryskids replied to Maximum Overkill's topic in The Geek Club
That's a lot of links, but I don't see anything about jobs the local people wouldn't do. Also, your links, particularly the first, outline both the bad and the good of having so many new people there. Costs like Medicaid, translation services, rising rents (which you acknowledged above). -
Great one; definitely "non-conventional" Also, wood.

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/born-kenya-obamas-literary-agent-misidentified-birthplace-1991/story?id=16372566 They blamed the literary agent. Of course, they never corrected it. My guess is that Obama thought it made him more hipster to be born in Kenya. I don't personally care where a person is born -- I'm more turned off that he was raised in his formative years in a country that hates America and Christianity. Anyway, my point is that Tim's list is dumb. -

The only thing I know about her was that curry tweet, which I found disgusting. I just checked her out on X and she looks like a conservative reporter, no other disgusting tweets in sight. Nevertheless, it doesn't seem like a good idea for Trump to associate himself with somebody who may alienate Indian America voters. -
Got tix for Wednesday, a great dinner and a movie (and alcohol) theater. I'll report back. ETA: I haven't seen the original so I can't make that comparison.

jerryskids replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
Interesting, that's a pretty reasonable list. Haitians eating pets is probably the most outlandish. The vax is probably the dumbest thing in your list, since it has been correlated with heart issues. I always love the birther stuff too -- Obama's own book said he was born in Kenya, and you believed it?! Dumb neocon! -

I don't want 100% of people voting. If you only registered to vote because Tay Tay (or Kid Rock) told you to do so, I'd just as well you sit home and play video games on election day. Voting is a privilege and a responsibility. I'd rather if idiots abstain. -

So the AP leans left in my source, and in your source, and that's your big win? My source is easier to read: they are in the same group as hack sources like NPR, USA Today, CNN, WaPo... There are plenty listed in the center. Reuters is pretty good, as are WSJ News and Real Clear Politics. If you need any schooling in the journalism field, just let me know, I'm here to help. -

jerryskids replied to Maximum Overkill's topic in The Geek Club
Thanks for the info. I'd appreciate more details on the bolded. It seems odd that an area with people who were looking for work would not be willing to work. I doubt it is "could" not because what would Haitian migrants be more qualified to do? Also, presumably the factory/warehouse was put there with the expectation that local people would work there. -

Ah, the expert journalismer has spoken. Somebody already showed an example. Another is in their headlines, which is more insidious: when the American hostage was brutally murdered by the evil terrorist Hamas, their headline was along the lines of "American hostage dies in Gaza", obfuscating the truth. And oh yeah, Allsides rates the AP as leans left, not center. https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-chart Now get your shine box. -

Well Sean, I don't know why anyone cares who Tay Tay endorses, but I'm being told by the Left that it's a big thing. Hundreds of thousands of adults who weren't registered to vote did so through her link, after Swift posted about her position on the election. But don't vote just because of her, do your own research! -

Umm, the Left is focusing plenty on the dogs and cats. I take it from your response that you don't agree with my point? That's a very centrist position for you. -
***Official Trump beat up the kamel again thread****
jerryskids replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
Mandatory buybacks: she hasn't changed her position since, until now. It's part of a pattern that her entire history is progressive positions like this, but now that she is running for POTUS, she is a chameleon, saying whatever she thinks she needs to say. But she said very recently that her values haven't changed. The intelligent conclusion is that she is lying now to get elected. Project 2025: she absolutely attributed it to Trump, please stop, this isn't helping your case of trying to seem objective. Thanks for acknowledging the bloodbath lie. It's hard to conclude from this post that the moderators weren't as biased as "some are saying." They were very biased. Zero fact checks on Harris. Zero follow-up questions on her word salads that didn't answer their questions. Instead, pushing Trump on things like his negotiation with the Taliban, instead of being an actual, I dunno, moderator, and giving him an open-ended opportunity to respond.
