Doesn't "so hungry they eat cats" indicate the failures of the food safety net and the suffering of the immigrants? I don't get why this story would make anyone with an ounce of empathy less sympathetic to immigrants instead of more sympathetic.

Some of these third party people could get elected to the senate if they tried, but have to try for the top job with no experience because their ego can't take that they don't know everything.

Trump can’t accept his poor debate. So he’s ~~spiraled into~~ continued with conspiracy theories.

Googling Xi Jinping age: 71

Someone must have said he was 10 years over the age of retirement.

Is this the program that open source people use to install all the random depencies that their program needs to work? The one that people tell me to use when I complain about git bash pico sudo pytorch Install commands?

Or did another company copy their name?

We have the baby boomers on the edge of dying. They are afraid of it, but there is nothing that can be done - so those fears shift to other things that "could" be dealt with.

-Immigrants destroying the culture they grew up in (that culture went away for other reasons),

-Gays and trans people being happy (The closeted Senator Graham saying there is no happiness in real life - why did gays of old have to suffer and hide if it was all for not?),

-The worst economy in the history of the US! (They are in their 80s, don't have a job, and running out of money, so it is bad for them)

-Small town on the edge of dying (because there is no jobs or amenities because they didn't want them in their town)

Trump speaks their insecurities and offers a path to fix things that no other politician dares to go down: "Burn the system to the grown and the people you hate will be hurt". Because modern Republicans care more about hurting the ones they hate than helping themselves, either because of self hate or a illusion that they won't get hurt in the process.

Trump said Harris stole his philosophy and political leanings ... then one sentence later called her a Marxist.

So what does that make him then?

At what point does George W Bush endorse Harris?

I am reminded of a very 90s Full House joke, wherein the annoying next door neighbor girl studies for her driver's test and passes. She is amazed that you can read up on potential test questions and then know them when they are asked on the test. She then asks "I wonder if you could do the same thing for tests in high school?" as if studying never occurred to her.

I feel like the concept of "studying the most pressing issues of the day and preparing responses" some people don't even consider, as all Trump has done since 2016 is just ad-lib all responses.

Trump thought the problems in Ferguson MO were caused by immigrants. If they would deport the immigrants, there would be no problems in Ferguson. Ferguson is 99% African American ("legal"). He wants to deport US citizens.
