We haven't talked about it since then, and it's looking like 2024 will be the first year of my life that I won't set foot in the state of Georgia, so it's highly unlikely that we'll get to talk in person before the election. My guess would be that given he donated to the campaign, he'll write in Pence again.


On nose-holders, I get it. I know quite a few of them, some of whom didn't just hold their noses, but fought HARD for the Republicans to nominate another candidate in each of the last three elections. (I mean, in 2016 I knew personally just about every individual listed on this page. I know literally no one on it now.) I could easily see myself being a Trump nose-holder if my life experiences were just a little different. I feel pretty confident that I'm doing the right thing, but to be honest, I still have doubts at times when it comes to voting for someone who might advance pro-choice policies. There's next to zero chance of me voting for Trump, but given Pence's stance on Jan 6 and his continued refusal to endorse Trump, if I lived in a state that treated write-ins as a vote, I'd consider going that route.

Somebody hacked the Trump campaign and they are blaming Iran.

Irony.

That too. A fair number of people care little about anything other than "how will this election impact ME?" It's "mind your own business" taken to the extreme. Although I wouldn't call people in that mindset "nose-holders." I'd think they just don't give a crap what a candidate says or does as long as they get their tax cuts, and therefore they just view Trump as a useful idiot more than anything else. (I do have one buddy from high school who stays in touch with me who fits squarely into this category. 7-figure income. Routinely golfs with John Smoltz and Chipper Jones. Views Trump as a simpleton, but will vote straight R ticket as long as his business and personal bottom lines benefit. He's Jewish by heritage, but doesn't even care one way or the other about the situation over there. He does seem to love his children, at least...)

Again, doubt that many of them voted D, but it had to have made them feel a whole lot more at ease about writing in someone like Pence or just leaving the Presidential slot blank.

What economic policy are we talking about here that would cause them to overlook it? Both parties have very similar economic policies.

This just isn't true.

Just off the top of my head,

Upper income taxes
Child tax credit
Spending on clean energy
Unions
Crypto investing
Education spending
Fed independence
Corporate tax rate
CFPB

You can like/dislike, but there are plenty of differences.

Idiots is arguable, but not liars. Of course his policies were known before that; that's when they made their decision though. A sizable number of people don't make up their mind until the days before the election. They don't find politics in general, the 'horse race', etc. to be as interesting as many of these forums do.

The child tax credit literally expired under Biden when Dems controlled both the House and Senate. Dems haven't touched the upper income tax brackets in forever (they almost torpedoed the infrastructure bill so they could keep a tax break for the rich!). Education has not seen much spending difference between parties (heck, some of the biggest jumps we've seen is during Republican controlled Houses). And even Obama was proposing cuts to the corporate tax rate before Trump actually did it.

Democrats and Republicans got together to undo SEC regulations on crypto just a couple months ago. The Democrats just launched "Crypto for Harris" the other day.

There's a handful of economic issues they differ on. But they're incredibly minor and it's why we see almost no change in our economic policy no matter who is President. Maybe Ksyrup's friend is heavily invested in who holds seats on the NLRB, but my guess is they're just a Trump supporter who is afraid to admit it.

I would be very skeptical on believing anything until we have some word from official sources. Everything that has come out has been from the Trump campaign and I wouldn't trust a single thing they have to say.

Some years ago on this forum, I made the argument that voting should be based on the greater good rather than this kind of self-interest. I don't recall a single person agreeing with me, and a number disagreed. One of the opposing points of view was that if you prioritize the greater good, that's the kind of thing that ends up in situations like the Salem Witch Trials.

I have routinely voted against my self-interest. Voting Dem is voting against my self-interest, in fact. I work in a heavily-regulated industry. Having the GOP decide who runs the FTC, CFPB, etc., instead of Elizabeth Warren woudl be much better for my business.

An expanded CTC was literally just killed by the GOP in the Senate.

The GOP wants to eliminate the Dept of Ed

The GOP wants to invest billions in a Bitcoin reserve

etc.

Again, this isn't to argue for or against, but it's just inaccurate to say they have the same policies.

Talk is cheap. Actions are all that matter. Both parties have carried out nearly identical economic policies over the past few decades when in power. I just don't buy that someone is choosing Trump because of an NLRB seat or some Bitcoin investments that will never happen. Those people just like Trump and are scared to admit it to their friends.

It's not voting individual interests, it's voting for politicians who will likely support policies that may benefit others either at your expense or that won't benefit you at all.

I'm voting for Harris. If she supports policies that benefit lower economic classes, or that might result in my taxes increasing, I'm fine with that (as a generic issue, not knowing what the specifics of any such policy are). I'm not looking for someone to counteract my vote by voting for my interests. This isn't some quid pro quo situation.

It is absolutely in my interest to not vote for someone who will raise taxes for a cause that I don't benefit from.

I guess I don't understand your point. That goes without saying. I'm saying some people - like me, now - are choosing to vote against our self-interests because we see the bigger picture as way more important at this particular moment. I don't expect you or anyone else to "take up the slack" by making sure my interests are represented.

You vote how you want. If that's to help yourself, fine. I see more benefit in voting for people whose policies either don't benefit me (at least not personally, although I feel I will benefit from an authoritarian not being in office) or may actually harm me financially. I don't know whether that will in fact be the case since I fall short of the baseline household income that seems to separate rich from not rich, but there's no question that the business I am a part-owner of would benefit from the GOP being in charge of economic and market conduct policies. I'm choosing... the US, I guess?

I like it as a political slogan though. You’re trying to get some votes from low information 20-year-olds working service jobs.

Yeah, as a policy, it is unworkable. But it’s just trying to get some votes.

This is where I am at. We are in the 37% tax bracket and if Trump wins we could go down to 30% which would be a lot of money but we would rather preserve democracy and let some poor kids have free lunch over some extra money in our bank accounts.

Exactly. I still care that such programs are administered smartly, but I am choosing to vote for a party attempting to help the less fortunate rather than the party that puts callousness ahead of compassion.

There was talk earlier in the thread about what happened to compassionate conservatism? That's for RINOs! Today's GOP not only is against such things, but actively speak out against in cruel terms - governors who refused to opt in to the federal free lunch program saying they don't believe in welfare, or using the ridiculous argument that there's already too much childhood obesity, or local GOP reps saying things like "hunger is relative." They aren't even primarily falling back on the typical arguments - they're just going straight to callousness - all while supporting other forms of welfare for corporations at the expense of the same people they deny benefits to. I've heard enough of that BS.

I wonder if someone's feeding him these ideas directly, he just extrapolating on some half-sentence he heard Barron read on twitter, or if he's just pulling it out of his ass entirely.

I can honestly say that as a straight, liberal white male, I've never dressed as a woman and the thought has never really been entertained in my head. It's like they hate themselves so much for having had those thoughts at some point that they have to punish the people who enjoy it.

This has been a tik tok conspiracy being pushed and, of course, thoroughly debunked the past few days. It probably originated on twitter.

Someone is definitely feeding him this nonsense.

I tell you, the Secret Sevive needs a complete clean out. Whoever broke into that door must be arrested.

"This has been a tik tok conspiracy being pushed and, of course, thoroughly debunked the past few days. It probably originated on twitter."

I'm telling you the people that believe this stuff. Numerous people posting their own video of that day to prove the crowd was there and still people immediately posting "it's fake. How much are they paying you?" The level of mass insanity.....

Couple charges wedding guests $333 each in effort to save money

I think Trump should try something like this. And then he can photoshop in all the people he wants and charge himself! Perfect scam!

Watching the closing ceremonies in Paris and the thought occurred to me - can you imagine Trump giving an opening/closing speech in LA in 2028 and going off-script?

You guys did not have "opposite" day during homecoming week in high school?

Boys dressed like girls(makeup and all), girls dressed like boys (including every girl wearing eye black for some reason), kids could wear their regular clothes inside out, or the kid who wore shorts and t-shirts every day, it would be the one day you would put on some suit. The hairy chested offensive guard showing a bunch of cleavage and lots of toilet paper in his cheap dress was a homecoming staple in the late 80s in South Florida.

Ahh the good ol' days.

Nope, but I lived in a small town in South Carolina.

Well, I guess Trump is coming back to Twitter. He is going to make a live speech tonight.

Definitely panicking.

Although I still think the election is his to lose. I saw somewhere that Clinton and Biden were ahead in the polls 5% and 8% a few months before their elections and we saw how those turned out - an L and a razor-thin W. Harris might be up 2 or 3%, which is great considering where Biden was, but that trajectory needs to continue. Still, it's hard to imagine nothing but good news and error-free campaigning for another 3 months. At some point this is going to settle in.

Trump, as always, is the wild card, as maybe he can do damage to himself even as Harris's momentum slows. Whatever it takes to grow the margins.

I agree that things are not as bad for Trump as even he seems to think they are.

Someone pointed out that if he flips Pennsylvania and Georgia and everything else stays the same from 2020, he gets 270 on the nose.

He can basically run a two-state strategy.

Except he is doing one rally a week at best and has spent his time out west in favorable states. I don't think he can stand the idea of doing a rally and having a smaller crown than Kamala.

I am also seeing a lot of X, so take it for what it is worth, that he can't do rallys in a lot of places because he still owes them money.
