I voted Trump but I completely agree. We need a landslide, even if Harris wins. Anything else gives the bad actors on either side fuel for an already out of control fire.
Sorry, but I just had to take a peek at your profile. You claim to be on an autism spectrum, yet you voted for a man who will - as the first order of business - make your very life extremely miserable.
That is my take. May I ask what is yours?
I've never been one to believe fake political fear mongering bullshit. The right does it too. He's not Hitler. He's not going to go after disabled people. It's bullshit lies. We're getting more of his first 4 years if he wins.
I sure hope that's the case. Are there any particular resolutions you hope he can pull through in his term?
Im hoping his foxus is on dropping energy prices mixed with lowering taxes on tips or overtime or social security. I know he wants to do all 3 but we know all 3 probably won't happen because that's how our politics works. Nothing ever happens fast
You do realize that lowering the energy prices will be at a cost of dropping climate policies? Are you not worried about the earth changing drastically as we speak?
It has changed before us. It will change after us. To me climate change is a non issue.
Can't say I'm surprised, but I'm still a bit disappointed. What about the conflict in Ukraine, do you even care that a first world country has been invaded for the first time since WW2, and that Trump is openly supporting Putin?
He never said he supports putin. I forgot what interview it was but he said "I just want people to stop dying". Assuming he is pro putin because he will talk to him is just dumb. I'm talking to you but we probably disagree on alot. I think a return to peace is far more likely with Trump than Harris.
so basically the entire reason you voted for trump is schizophrenic economics. When you could've voted for kamala harris, who has actual real tangible economic policy.
Lol that's bullshit and you know it. She lost anyway so her lack of plans no longer matter.
nice shitpost homie, maybe if you had some reading comprehension you would be able to understand the intellectual argument here.
"NUH UH UR WRONG L TAKE DUMBASS" this is literally you right now.
Yup lol
true

It dosen't say what Trump said.
Former President and current Republican nominee Donald Trump has been accused of once saying that it may be better for people living with serious disabilities to “just die.” The startling revelation was laid out in a new book authored by Trump’s nephew Fred Trump III the son of the former President’s older brother Fred Trump Jr who passed away in 1981.
bOTh SiDEs 🙄
What we need is to slow down and take everything slowly. Don't rush and recount and investigate if needed.
I agree with that.
