  1. JD Vance in this campaign reminds me of when the stage flattened Bret Michaels.
  2. Trump said Kamala was beautiful like Melania, but he was 2 seconds away from saying Melania was too stupid to be president so that’s why people shouldn’t vote for Kamala.
  3. https://www.kcrg.com/2024/05/17/princeton-study-private-school-tuitions-rise-after-state-voucher-rollout/?outputType=amp https://azcir.org/news/2023/11/27/arizona-private-schools-hike-tuition-after-voucher-expansion/
  4. Parents like this don’t understand that while school vouchers make it a possibility to send your child to an expensive private school, there is no law requiring these schools to accept students who are trying to use the vouchers.
  5. This is very true. We don’t need Walz trying to correct a bullshit accusation and giving a sound bite that turns into Obama’s “you didn’t build that” quote taken out of context.
  6. Trump clearly has a thing for men dressed as women. Im sure JD let him motorboat his boobs like this to get the VP pick.
  7. It’s the same Epstein plane but MAGA is gonna ignore that and rave about how Trump got such a great deal on the plane.
  8. I saw an editorial where the author said Vance is the one pushing his “combat correspondent” title hard as if he was writing stories out in the battlefield when he was really a public affairs specialist who sat in the AC all day for six months writing puff pieces to make the war look better.
  9. I really have no idea. To be honest, the first time I heard the term “Chicano” I saw it on Saved by the Bell: The College Years where AC Slater learned he was Mexican in college. And when I went to California that’s what they were calling themselves even though I had never heard that term used in Texas. But if we all vote for Harris-Walz they are just going to lump us all back in the same group together again which is fine by me as long as we keep this orange asshole out of the White House.
  10. I’m Hispanic and I don’t really like the term Latino, but that’s just me. To me, Latinos from California are Chicanos, Latinos from Texas are Mexicanos, and Latinos from Florida are Cubans. Chicanos are Mexican but I have never heard someone from Texas call themselves that. And Mexicans and Cubans are way different from one another. I took a class on Latino Politics at UT and the voting+education trends were like this in the early 2000s: Cubans - Republican (most educated) Mexicans - Rep/Dem Mix Puerto Ricans - Democrat (least educated) But this was a generalization for second generation Latinos and above, this does not include immigrants. And it was from 20 years ago so the stats should be way different today. It’s just an example to show how Latinos shouldn’t be lumped into one singular group.
  11. SIAP, I’m always behind on things
  12. If Tim Walz can help get these types of people to vote for Kamala, it’s gonna be a landslide. He already did it for himself in Minnesota.
  13. It’s like if Ron DeSantis put on a JD Vance skin. I hate to say it, but JD Vance makes Ted Cruz look “cool” and “with it.” That gives me the chills so I might just fly to Cancun now.
  14. No disrespect to Kamala Harris, but I was more excited about Barack’s campaign in 2008. I was in my 20s and I was disillusioned because the war killed some of my friends and family while those who returned were not the same as before. My last year of grad school wasn’t so exciting because the job market sucked and the economy was in the toilet. I was worried about finding a job and having health insurance after I left school and could no longer get coverage through UT. Barack Obama gave me hope he was going to fix things and stop perpetuating the lies the Bush administration fed to us after 9/11. Obama promised to end the war in Iraq and pushed for health insurance to keep people on their parents’ plan until age 26. Looking back, I know the excitement I felt for Obama in 2008 is what young and olds feel for Kamala today. My key issues regarding the war and health insurance back in 2008 are how people feel now about reproductive rights, medical privacy, and gun control. Yes, I was more excited about Barack back then, but the excitement I felt was rooted in my belief he would be the savior to all the problems the Bush administration created. The Harris-Walz ticket feels different. I don’t view them as “saviors” who came down to help guide us through the fog the way I felt with Obama. I view Harris-Walz as people I grew up with who also happen to be in high ranking positions of power. Harris is like someone I can call up and say hey, “pick Tim Walz for VP” and she would actually listen. The Harris-Walz campaign feels like regular people. Just me and you and the neighbors down the street who also happen to be politicians coming together to defeat a terrible monster who is rotting the country from the inside out. The issues today are bigger and more life changing this time around, but my excitement level is tempered because I just can’t get it up as high 16 years later.
  15. The GOP will never get past MAGA unless Trump is dead. If they couldn’t drop him after J6 AND 34 FELONIES, they aren’t dropping him after 2 losses in a row.
  16. Doug Emhoff sitting next to Macron and his wife at the gold medal basketball game.
  17. I’m sure the MTG DICK AND VAGINA PICS is the one that got the most clicks
  18. Celine: I did not authorize the Trump campaign to use my song. This song has already been used as the soundtrack for one major American catastrophe and I do not wish to lend it to another.
  19. Odds on Taylor Swift endorsing Kamala? I know this is an unpopular opinion but I don’t think she will openly support the ticket if it hurts her economic bottom line. My MAGA sister and her kids are huge Swifties, but they also love Trump more and would probably start burning all her merchandise if she supported Harris. But knowing them, they’d probably just re-buy all the shit they torched after the election is over so it would theoretically still put more money in Taylor’s pocket.
  20. The tampon issue is fucking dumb. MAGA is clutching their pearls at the sight of feminine products in the men’s room, but they fail to see the utility tampons provide men in times of need. Don Jr would benefit from shoving a tampon up his bloody nose after getting punched in the face or snorting an 8 ball off a toilet seat.
