talk about disingenuous... it's simple math:
there are only 2 people who have a real chance to win, so if you don't cast your vote for the least of 2 evils,
then you are wasting your chance to help prevent the worst guy from winning.
Nice mental gymnastics there retard. :roflmao:

^ so who are you going to vote for if RFK Jr backs out and endorses Trump?
Exactly. Nikki Haley, JD Vance, practically the whole Republican Party jes greedheads, all sold out already .
Kinda like running from One Tree to another tree in a rainstorm figuring once this one gets soaked I'll just run to the next one.

I don’t care if it’s a goat, a lamb, or a pooch.

I’m not the one eating it but if the French can eat horses who am I to judge?

As you know in Asia, dogs aren’t exactly beloved pets

I don't eat horse. At least it's kinda close to a cow and isn't a carnivore.

In South Korea they actually differentiate between "pet" dogs and "eating" dogs – I kid you not! Pet shops display all these fluffy designer breeds in their windows while across the road a bunch of poor mutts are kept in cages waiting for the pot. :frown:

It's pretty fucked up. There is a local program that rescues "food dogs" for people who want to adopt them as pets. A Canadian friend of mine did this and took the dog back to Canada. The Chinese are just as bad, if not worse, than the Koreans. Pet dogs and cats go missing all the time in China to end up as stew.

Back to the topic.
Munchy posted in MAGA Tears that the congress was briefed today about the shooter's motives.
K+ on the find.
it stated that the kid's phone contained searches on depression, and both candidates itineraries.
If this is true, it's exactly the news that the country needs to hear to cool hot heads. Which is also why I prefaced with "If this is true"
Hopefully they will make the "receipts" public to remove any doubts skeptics will surely make known.... see I just did.

I haven't heard that he would. I did hear that he would consider replacing Biden when he drops out.

Here's his take on third party voting.
Reminding the journalist that Abraham Lincoln was a third party candidate and that "The Times" will dictate when a new party needs to emerge.
Can you dispute that perhaps we have entered into one of those "Times"?

Allow me to share a post I wrote on Facebook the other day.

——

I hate to get all political on you all again but I cannot in good conscience sit back and watch as this nation falls further into great disrepair while we’re subjected to these two senior citizens argue.

Are they for real?

The best America has to offer is a rambling incoherent 78 year old and an incoherent wandering 81 year old ?

Seriously?

You know what?

The majority of us are simply fucking fed up with this nonsensical bullshit.

They could both fuck off and I bet we’d still be fine.

Don’t neither of them senile fucks mean shit to me. Or you for that matter.

The middle of the road moderate, yep, those of us who give a damn about the current political landscape are going to have to deal with a these two clowns as our choice in November, and it could very well be the reason we, collectively have a continual future, or not.

Not to be alarmist but it seems as it is that dire.

Truthfully I’m fearful that our nation is screwed if it falls into the hands of either of the these morons brought forth by the two parties.

As an independent voter that the party faithful always says is throwing his vote away if he doesn’t vote for one of their party choices …tbh: both sides have chastised me for my views, however it isn’t my place to tell them how wrong they are. Unless they are paying me of course.

But now we’re approaching the topic.

Neither sides actually wins Wisconsin without you.

Party lines in Wisconsin.

Typically ~42% on either side of the aisle.

That’s roughly 16% of independents that cause us to be the essential “swing state”.

Here’s where it gets pretty insane though.

Did you know both sides are essentially the same?

See on the one side, team red if you will, you’re supposed to fail in line and do as they tell you because that’s how the team works. Companies like Michael Best Strategies and the newly founded Hitler Youth like Turning Point Action who put together support and resources behind candidates to sell you on the corporate lobbying industry agendas.

On the other side, team blue, they tell you that your invited to make suggestions and they value your input but then they claim that their thinkers decided the best course for their party is to make the agenda based on the will of those whose philanthropy gives them continued relevance so they hire folks like A Better Wisconsin Together a division of Progress Now to push an agenda across the nation in a coordinated manner, so many people support this it has to be good.

Blah fucking blah…

For the majority of us, the average everyday working people, we don’t belong to either party so why do we let them paint us as red or blue?

If the state is as important as they say, and neither side can win the presidency without the path to victory including winning Wisconsin then isn’t now the time to take charge and make the change for the good of the people.

We’ve done it before, with the La Follette Progressive Era coming out the depression era of the 1930’s and hell even with the birth of the damn Republican Party.

Just 34% wins it in a 3 way race, and there will other choices on the ballots.

Choose wisely.

We can’t really afford to screw this one up again but neither side gives a damn about us. Seems they just care about keeping the status quo to increase corporate profits maybe it’s time we unite to end the corrupting influence of the two party system.

Thanks for listening to my rant.

I’m voting RFK as well
At least it sounds like you're doing it for the right reasons. I do hope you don't believe all the conspiracy shit he throws out. He just strikes me as a bit of a wacko. But then, I don't have to vote for any of them. If I were American, I would probably abstain.

The conspiracy stuff he throws out? I’m not sure I follow, but give me 20 minutes:

Okay: more like 45.

I kind of agree with the guy and know firsthand how the government is a pipeline to private sector employment where lucrative rewards are heaped upon people who’ve acted in their donors interest before the good of the public they’d been entrusted to serve.
