I'll say one thing. If Grindr ever has a data leak, there are gonna be some quick resignations.

It would be a shame if Iran hacked the RNC


It would probably be bad because they'd use it to blackmail them like Putin did back in '15

I thought that Project 2025 shyt was just some whacked out Conservative Christian think tank made up of over 100+ groups? Didn’t he condemn a lot of the stuff in it? That stuff was beyond wild… like some kinda skinhead manifesto lol

It is fairly obvious that 30% of the population want a king and not a president of a democratic republic


IMO i'd rather have a strong leader over a spineless administration and a weak America. Come Nov 4th, I guess we will see if that 30% is actually closer to 60%.

Respectfully challenging your assertion that Trump did not contact the widow. See nytimes link below.

Okay good, he finally called her. I didn't hear anything since it was reported that he didn't. Thanks for the update.

I hope that family will be alright all politics aside. That was vile.

And all it took was the media calling him out and a day of playing golf :lol:

Right, to where they're being fed disinformation and often flat out lies.

Like I literally can go on reddit and read a summary someone posts of an article from a reputable news source, but if I go to said source they want my credit card info.

News and scientific research study findings should not be behind a paywall.

Yeah man. I feel bad for her, at least he finally did, but still. It's not like dude went there looking to cause trouble or get shot. Just like the folks in that supermarket in a predominantly Black area of Buffalo didn't go to the store intending to be gunned down by a lunatic either.

Like I feel like we all can agree that this is an absurd way for us to live and no one deserves this

Is anything real anymore? He lied about not knowing anything about it. Look into it. There's a thread on the CA board. Some very interesting things in there.

PS...my rant was partly tongue in cheek relative to the tone of the thread but, i dropped the project 2025 in there to see what the cult members have to say about it.

Trump is associated with several members of the think tank responsible for the Project 2025 manifesto including the psycho who said this will be a bloodless revolution if liberals allow it to be.

^that is a threat of political violence.

I don't think it's the most important issue, and certainly not worth electing someone like Trump over. I don't think there's any justification for electing someone like Trump. If you can't find a decent person to represent your position, then maybe you should question how decent your position is.

It's been said in this thread and implied when anyone who wants to slow down illegal immigration are called racists.


Neutral123, you've been calm, collected and made respectful arguments this whole time... yet somehow you get labeled "racist/dog whistler/xxxxphobe/bad person" because you challenge ideas/policies of the left. It's there main play.

Don't agree with my stance? you're racist
Not becoming an "anti-racist" activist? you're racist

Just cry racist, play the victim, hunker down, reinforce your position, rinse repeat.
Like Justin Trudeau labeling the entire trucker protest as "racist/mysogonists/bad people". It's lazy. It's not constructive. I'd even go to say it's evil.

I believe the MSM and this administration pushing this stuff is evil, keeps pushing this BS narrative that racism is the #1 problem in USA (I don't think it's #1, my opinion) and keeps dividing us more.
And Trump is the perfect figurehead to pin these labels on.

These words and labels have lost there original meaning and weight.

Trudeau is a hilarious case. He called people racists for not wanting to take the jab, meanwhile he's worn blackface as a grown man on numerous occasions. 'Racism' just means someone who disagrees with me. You can't even oppose illegal immigration without being a 'racist'.

You're a racist for supporting a racist, meanwhile they admit they support a racist, but they aren't racist. Truly amazing.

IDK, I associate Newsome with a lot of problems during the pandemic. would vote him over trump, but i dont think he galvanizes anyone


Newsom would wipe the floor with Trump. He may be a little full of himself but he went onto Fox ”news” and kicked Sean Hannity’s ass in a debate. He’s an excellent communicator.


There would not be a debate though.

With the debate structure this year anyhow -- not even sure how much one would be worth as long as people don't freeze and have a stroke.

It's fearmongering propaganda because that's the only way leftists will be able to win an election. Scare everyone to the polls. Notice how Project 2025 was barely mentioned prior to the debate. As my boy Biden says, "c'mon man".

Look up Trump Derangement Syndrome. 95 pages of grown men (and some man-children) gleefully basking in someone's near death and going on extensive rants against anyone who disagrees with them in any form. You're unable to have a discussion with individuals who think the person you're arguing for is Hitler, hates everyone except himself and a person those people would like to see dead.

I know I'll get quoted again and insulted/ranted on. It's an off topic thread on a New York forum. Of course the liberals will massively outnumber everyone else here and pile on. I just came in to tell you to have a mind of your own and not fall for the hyperbolic sky-is-falling 'Trump is the reincarnation of Satan' trash takes you'll see on here from a collection of individuals who probably don't see much sunlight on a daily basis or have any type of social circle outside of this forum which hasn't been updated since 2002.
