Harris v. Trump

[Rich Tea Wellin]

The ol’ “They don’t know what’s best for them” “They didn’t know what they were voting for”

A staple defence mechanism every time the baddies win elections

I think it holds true. History is littered with examples.

People want to feel listened to and seen. Trump is great at that. I don't think people actually think through the outcome and the actual impact on their lives. It's just someone there that is a rebel, who has their back.

I hope it’s a regular feature she’ll perform and the next time an African country gets a warlord president who has promised to burn gays at the stake she’ll have a reassurance video to calm our fears.

Hi Terry.

It’s both true that a lot of the electorate are thicko racists, and also that a party can’t win unless it can convince some thicko racists to vote for them

[Currywurst and Chips]

Obama won two landslides?

[CEB2ElectricBoogaloo]

Yeah, he convinced some thicko racists to vote for him. In his case, I imagine it involved thinking about how to exploit the “thicko” part.

Insulting people like that is sure to win them over .

I don’t know if you noticed, RD1881, but this account isn’t actually the campaign HQ of the 2028 Democratic Party election campaign

Statements like this can be both deeply patronising and true though, can’t they?

Ultimately someone like Trump, Boris, or whoever is actually less interested than their opponents in improving the lives of people who have f*** all, but mainstream politicians have failed so badly on this front over the last few decades that millions of angry people are willing to press the ‘f*** you’ button and see what happens.

I like to think I wouldn’t do the same if I were in their position, but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t

Patronising voters and calling them stupid is an excellent electoral strategy

I don’t think everyone who voted for these goons is stupid (far from it), and either way I’m not looking to be elected

What do you think of Trump, out of interest?

Not really my cup of tea for a politician, he does provide bants though.

Hilarious.

We are all lucky to get to experience your insight.

[Yanzi Gravy]

Yeah, he convinced some thicko racists to vote for him. In his case, I imagine it involved thinking about how to exploit the “thicko” part.

For ‘some ‘ read ‘millions of’. Can you tell me though how you know these millions of people are racists?

Hi, thanks, that’s a great question. The answer is that they just voted for a racist.

Exactly and considering Trump won all seven swings states in America it''s clearly not working .

Pie right as usual

It was reported on the radio this morning that over at the Guardian journalists are being offering counselling for their upset over the US election result . What a right shower they must be . I have to say , I agree with a lot of the above . "Trump had Dr Phil and Hulk Hogan and he still fcuking won "

So you're calling LBC liars ?

[CEB2ElectricBoogaloo]

My suspicion would be that guardian offices routinely provide some level of mental health support for employees, and that given the strength of feeling around the election, the guardian maybe signposted to the fact that the provision is there.

Seems like Bernie is the only Democrat with a functioning brain cell .

[CEB2ElectricBoogaloo]

What Sanders says there is a great way to some people to vote differently, or to vote who wouldn’t otherwise have voted.
I’m not sure it’d be a great way to win the election though

Good on the Guardian supporting their brave staff during this tough time. Excellent leadership
