Catchy song though. Notice that Melanie is at odds with husband Donald. Melania Trump seems to have joined a long line of Republican former first ladies who have come out in support of abortion rights, putting them at odds with their husbands' public views. In a short video clip promoting her forthcoming book, Mrs Trump expressed her support for women's "individual freedom", describing it as an "essential right that all women possess from birth".RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 04, 2024 1:07 pmWho are those muppets , the Partridge family ?

Re: Harris v. Trump
Looks like her divisive/identity campaign has backfired. Latest polls from CNN and early voting indicates that Harris is in trouble.

Re: Harris v. Trump
Almost like they should’ve acknowledged the Biden problem instead of calling it a conspiracy theory then picked someone less unpopular and more capable

Re: Harris v. Trump
Trump is going to win, isn’t he? Bad tactic labelling him a facist. Demonstrably true, but his supporters are going to want to defend him. Kamala should stick to the moral high ground, not sink to his tactics. People know he is a louse, but they still champion him. Can somebody explain this to me?

If you've got nothing, the politician who's willing to offer you one or more scapegoats and promises to punish them is a more appealing pick than the politician who promises to look after everybody else.Give it to Jabo wrote: ↑Fri Oct 25, 2024 5:26 pm Trump is going to win, isn’t he?

Of course he is going to win . It was nailed on as soon as Harris was “selected “the official Democrat presidential candidate . I’ve seen some of her interviews and she’s completely out of her depth

Re: Harris v. Trump
In that case then maybe the Democrats should have selected somebody who actually knew what they were talking about. Also her running mate ,Walz with his stolen valour.

Yes, the dems are poor too, but they're not so wildly dangerous.

I don't know how you beat Trump really. The thick are determined to vote for him no matter what and there's a lot of them.

Re: Harris v. Trump
Would you judge the UK to be better informed in these matters? He is not popular this side of the pond and Trump-Light Boris was seen off in the main, though of course he does have a sizeable fan base. Not only that, there was plenty of support for Farage and Reform last time around.

Well you've got issues like abortion that mean the 'traditional' and often very religious right (which is a far bigger proportion of the USA than the UK) will vote for any republican candidate, however unhinged. Plus wealthy people who don't care who gets crushed under the weight of a collapsing social/economic structure as long as they don't have to pay a penny in extra tax (plenty to spare for political donations/lobbying though, obviously).
I think the “if you’ve got nothing” argument also kind of applies to cultural capital. 'Incel' types and others who feel socially cast aside (Elon Musk fanboys and all that) might also vote for a strongman/bully type, if only to spite the 'normies'.
