Thread: 2024 US Presidential Election

  1. #76

    Re: 2024 US Presidential Election

    Looks like the Republicans will have;

    The president (with an electoral college and popular vote
    The house of representives
    The senate
    A supreme court with majority appointees by that party.

    I assume this has happened before, but it must be many years? Does anyone know?

    Obama did in 2008, but don't know about the Supreme Court. Easy enough to check though.

    It will be interesting to know the answer to this, once again the experts are way out.

    You mean the paid for media in this country and beyond.

    That’s one good thing to have come out of Covid

    One day you will get a medal for all your work to help us understand what you know and we don't

    It's a special gift you have

    God bless you

    You don't have to pick a side and blindly follow them. A better strategy would be to view things from all angles and then work out what is actually going on. I'm not a Trumpist by any means, but when I saw the Russia collusion nonsense I called it out for what it was, and a lot of people didn't like me for that

    My daughter pointed out today that Trump is a woman-beater.
    He Lost to Joe, but he beat Clinton and Harris.
    So he only beats women, the bully.

    How are you coping with losing money on your Trump losing bet despite spending years telling us about your timeline? Bit embarrassing

    Politics aside, I just can’t for the life of my understand how a convicted rapist, sex pest and felon can be elected as the head of any country never mind the United States. No doubt most on here are husbands, have daughters and granddaughters. Do you honestly hand on heart agree with this vile, dangerous individual being President?

    I think his election sums up America and capitalism

    And why the ghost of Thatcher is still with us

    Re: 2024 US Presidential Election

    Bernie Sanders:

    “It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic party which has abandoned working-class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. First, it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right....

    "Today, despite strong opposition from a majority of Americans, we continue to spend billions funding the extremist Netanyahu government’s all out war against the Palestinian people which has led to the horrific humanitarian disaster of mass malnutrition and the starvation of thousands of children.

    "Will the big money interests and well-paid consultants who control the Democratic party learn any real lessons from this disastrous campaign? Will they understand the pain and political alienation that tens of millions of Americans are experiencing? Do they have any ideas as to how we can take on the increasingly powerful oligarchy which has so much economic and political power? Probably not.

    "In the coming weeks and months those of us concerned about grassroots democracy and economic justice need to have some very serious political discussions."

    I think he's spot on about the abandoning of the working class. It's been happening for years. Not just abandoned but in some cases actively hostile towards the way people think, their concerns, culture, how they live, even where they eat and drink. It's been happening for years, certainly in the UK, presumably in the US too (I think it started there personally) and across Europe too.

    There is a great book on it by the trade unionist Paul Embery.

    I see there’s no replies from the right wing stale male loons on here to my post as to why they are supporting a rapist. What a shock.
