Amazing that they feel comfortable writing that and dispensing it to the public.  Election integrity by preventing federal election monitors.

Yep, starting tonight I'm carrying my .40 for at least a week. Usually leave it at home. 

I don’t carry generally but I’ll be wearing a shoulder holster and my Harris/Walz shirt for a few days

Someone with more knowledge than me please tell me why Ohio will spilt Dem/repub for senate/president?  Is the repub senate candidate that bad?  Seems off. 

Because Sherrod Brown is the kind of Democrat that held the house for decades and has credibility with the middle class in a way that the rest of the Democratic Party doesn’t.

The dirty truth is a ton of Mexicans living in the US are very racist against blacks. Also, they're very prejudiced against other latinos coming into the US (whether legally or illegally) because they feel it will invalidate their standing here, or ruin their ability to improve their standing. 
My wife's parents moved here from Mexico in the 1970s. Her dad and several of his brothers were illegally here for a couple of decades before becoming citizens. Her extended family in DFW, about 100+ people strong, are a mix of a few college educated sane Harris supporters and a ton of shit show low educated, ignorant, goobers. 
Mostly they vote out of prejudice and fear while being completely ignorant of the dangers maga fascist authoritarianism presents to them regardless of their citizenship status. 

This is spot on. Some of the most anti black racist folks I’ve ever been around are Texas Hispanics. It was eye opening and shocking. The democrats aren’t living in reality when they think otherwise. A not small percentage of that demographic will NEVER vote for a black presidential candidate. Makes zero sense, but it is what it is.

To be fair, the Kamala Wins handle is prone to running it back through if they're bored. They got me a little while ago.

Your posts are bordering on insulting.

Personally, I think if you are a white dude opining on Mexicans you should just fuck your own face.

You can feel however you want, but I've been married into the family and have lived in that culture far more than my own family's white culture for over 20 years. My daughters are half Mexican.  I've discussed all of this with my wife and members of her family many times over. 

I'm not apologizing for saying what I know to be the god damned truth.

Well, some Republicans would never ever ever vote for a black woman, but here we sit.

I'm not a Texas Hispanic, but the point is, giving up on people isn't the way.  Even if we can't get to one generation, the next one may well be one election or two from being on the clock, and things change.

The French dude and polymarket: The Trump-Betting Whale Speaks Out: ‘I Have Absolutely No Political Agenda’
Self-described French trader says he bet more than $30 million on U.S. election after analyzing polls

Trump whale exposes the limits of today’s prediction markets: Even though volumes have surged on Polymarket this year, it is still small enough for one wealthy, opinionated individual to push prices around with a multimillion-dollar bet.
Théo emailed the Journal after the publication of an Oct. 18 article about his wagers. To prove that he was behind the Polymarket wagers, the Journal asked him to place a bet on whether Taylor Swift would announce that she is pregnant in 2024—one of the many small, nonpolitical wagers available on the platform. Minutes later, Polymarket’s website showed that one of the four accounts, Theo4, had placed a small bet on Swift’s pregnancy.

Listen to this woman. Her money shot:

Do we really trust this man with our economy? Our economy!

A man who cares only about making himself rich, and tax cuts for his billionaire friends. I don't even get a tax cut.

Today is your wallet. Tomorrow, he'll be conning you out of your healthcare rights. And that's a fact. I want you to hear that again. Today, he's hustling you with a "Oh, buy my sneakers." Tomorrow, it's going to be your healthcare rights. He's going to take it away from you. He's gonna snatch it.

Donald Trump talks about how he has a concept of a plan, but, America, the only concept of a plan he has is a plan to hustle you."

She's certainly not a policy analyst or a polished political speaker, but that woman gets it. I hope her fans are listening.

Game recognize game.

No, he's not.  You are doing what a lot of people do: you see a problem and you attribute the cause as something you see as deficient.  But, if there was really a cause and effect between these problems and that deficiency, if Trump was winning this voting block due to economic policy, nobody would be talking about "white working class"

Um, I’m not talking about the “white working class,” yall are.

Again, I’m saying: Democrats have not represented the interests of the middle and lower middle class effectively for 30 years. Over and over, when the interests of the lower middle-middle class  and the top decile came into conflict,  the Democratic leadership chose the latter. When they had the opportunity to protect or expand the tools available to the lower middle and middle to protect their own interests or build equity, they opted not to take them. With the rare exception of people like Sherrod Brown,  the Democratic Party mostly represents the cultural and social agenda of well educated knowledge workers in urban centers mixed with Clinton-era corporatism. To the extent that labor Democrats exist at all anymore, they are an anachronism. 
 

It seems silly to pretend otherwise.

That really is the essence of her message, "Hey, I'm a hustler, too, but that Trump guy is a bad dude."

It's not that we don't believe you, it's that we just don't care. No, sorry, we are actually hoping it happens. 

You know, might send a message to other billionaires that’s it is a bit risky to try to buy a Presidential Election.

Not raping them or making crude gestures insinuating that they performed oral sex to get where they are could be a start. 

Yeah but that would be compromising his core message.

Treasury Market continues to price in trump win and wicked inflation that comes with his economic policies.

Weak employment data today (deflationary) was unable to counter the greater risk of Trump inflation.

Trump loves the poorly educated.

That’s kind of like when the whiskey tax folks told the federal government to fuck off.  I know next to nothing about election law, but I cannot imagine that federal officials do not have the authority to monitor federal elections.

Oh okay.

I was married to a full Irish woman for over twenty years so I am fully prepared to explain the Irish-American experience to my kids. Lulz no, I don't understand it but I just teach my kids to be proud and embrace their heritage that I don't really understand.

 

So ...

So, when Aubrey joins us at Chili’s on Wednesday night, should I order the 3 for me with the Smashburger, or go old school with an Old Timer with cheese (and pour one out for the Rojo Burger)? I really want to get this right, and make a good impression on her.
