    Washington crossed the Delaware in the middle of winter at night for this nation and you can’t be bothered to cross the Potomac?  

    ZQXSSFM Crossing The Swamp with ...

    List of figures from left to right: Nikki Haley, James Mattis, Ben Carson, President Trump, Jeff Sessions, Mike Pence, Melania Trump, Mike Pompeo, Sarah Sanders, Ivanka Trump, John Bolton, Kellyanne Conway, John Kelly

    And Donald Trump crossed the swamp with a bunch of rinos that have gone on to say he's a fascist and a threat to democracy.

    This is intentional. The media is also complicit with this plan. 

    Harris if she wins has the ultimate opportunity to pull us out of the oligarchy to eventual collapse doom loop. Let's see if she has the backbone to stand behind a tough FTC, SEC and has a strong AG to expedite both trust busting and start enforcing the actual securities laws that are clearly being violated by a certain class and bring back accountability. 

    This right here is a huge part of an actual way forward out of this mess. Anti-corruption, target oligarchs and monopolies with an emphasis on encouraging competitive markets and building small business. It's good policy and would be enormously popular.

    Did somebody post Jackson introducing Kamala?

     

    I missed the Mel Gibson endorsement. Is there anyone who's ever had a touch of celebrity that's too toxic or insane for the Trump MAGA people to embrace publicly? Mel Gibson, Antonio Brown, Roseanne Barr, Lara Logan, Kanye West, Ted Nugent, Kristi Noem, Hulk Hogan, RFK Jr, Russell Brand. I feel like there's a decent chance we'll see Bill Cosby in Pennsylvania soon.

    When was the last time Melania was seen in public? Bonus points for when was Melania seen in public with Donald?

    At that Alfred Smith dinner fundraiser thing last week. Before that, had been a long while since she had been seen with Dotard.

    Maybe it's been discussed at length (I certainly miss pages of this thread of a time, so point me to a page number if I'm rehashing old shit) but can anyone explain the disconnect between the betting markets and polls?  I'm not following closely so maybe a poll shift but most I've seen still seem to be predicting a narrow Harris win.  But Trump appears to be a relatively comfortable favorite in the betting markets.   I don't think presidential betting reflect the market the same extent as sports betting (with actual regulated books not taking bets + small $ limits, etc.) but still a bit surprising.

    I think it's just that stupid people bet on results that they're hoping for. There were quite a few that bet on Conor McGregor to beat Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match. 

    Since Mayweather had always been a convincing favorite throughout his career -- -200 against Pacquiao, -300 versus Canelo Alvarez, -400 against Shane Mosely -- professional bettors couldn't believe they could get a similar price on Mayweather versus McGregor.

    Mayweather's odds dipped under -400 in the days leading up the fight, and the big, smart money began appearing.

    Why does he look like he’s taking a shit?

    So many reasons I want Kamala, Walz to win this. A couple of them that I don't think about much:

    1. I don't want this pseudo intellectual, eye liner wearing creep with his weirdo beard to be a big part of American politics for 4 or 8 or however many years. I don't want to think about this guy again until he's up for re-election in 2028.

    2. If Dotard becomes President again with immunity and no guard rails, his corrupt ass will enrich himself to the point of being one of the wealthiest people that ever lived.

    Your opinion is wrong and you should feel bad. Clinton was a marginal candidate and mostly unknown outside of the state of Arkansas except by politics junkies in the spring of 1992. His candidacy was only possible because when Bush looked unbeatable going into the early fall of 1991, all the top contenders on the Democratic side declined to run including the top two “next generation” candidates.
