Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

If Sanders couldn't get a majority of Democrats to vote for him why the fuck do you think he would have won the general election? Almost every poll showed Bernie not only beating Trump but beating him handily. The problem is that between the super-delegates, party bosses and consultants, there was ...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

You know, I'm not going to say Bernie would have won against Trump back in 2016 because we'll never know for sure, but how anyone can see Bernie's gigantic grassroots support and enthusiasm that people were pouring into his campaign only for the typical Democrat to go, "nah, could never work c...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

No one liked Hillary and no one wanted Harris. Both were foisted as the annoited candidate of the Democratic party and lost for good reason. Clinton won the primaries in 2016. Then she won the popular vote. Clearly someone liked her. Clinton won the primaries because they railroaded Bernie, many of...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

Aaaaaaand the MSM is already looking for scapegoats: Stephanie Ruhle of MSDNC was on a few hours ago, blaming college loan forgiveness. College kids are a ripe target since they have no power, and blaming them for Trump's win also allows for some payback since college demonstrators called out Biden/...

Next time I get the urge to make a prediction, would someone please take an old, knee-length wool sock, fill it with steel ball bearings and fresh dogshit, and beat me about the head and neck for at least twelve minutes?

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

PREDICTION: Harris will win, and it won't be all that close. The biggest clue in the entrails on the altar will be North Carolina, Georgia and Pennsylvania. If she wins just two of them, she'll squeak by if she pulls in the Great Lakes states. If she gets all three, it's a slam-dunk even if she lose...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

Is the IvP matter important to the US electorate? It depends. In Michigan, it's a big deal because Arab-Americans are a larger percentage of the population than other states, and it's a swing state where the margin is very small (Trump won by 1% in 2016 even though polls showed Hillary with a 5-poi...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

The President could stop this holocaust right now by doing nothing : No more weapons for Israel. No more UN vetoes. No more US personnel in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon or the nearby seas to cover the IGF's depredations. The Dems have dubbed Trump (rightly) as a fascist. If Trump had half a brain, he coul...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

Or she could just, you know. Agree to not help murder Palestinians. It's not just a question of what Harris wants. It's also a question about what she can convince the democrat party to cooperate with. That makes it difficult for me to believe any promise she might make about stopping Israel. Polls...

This election is starting to remind me of an NFL game I saw when I was a kid in 1981 between the Colts and Patriots. They were the two worst teams in the league playing the last game of the season. It was such a terrible game that everyone was convinced both teams were trying to lose on purpose. To ...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

The really frightening thing is not Trump. There will always be assholes like him littered around the world. The thing I find scary, is that 50% of Americans still want to vote for him. 50% wants to vote for an oligarchic fascist. You and me, both, bud. I had no idea how fucking stupid half of my f...

Re: US Election 2024: Grumpy Old Men

The latest map shows Harris slightly ahead in North Carolina, but the state just Ku Kluxed over 700,000 names off the rolls. There's also that phantom 1-2% that tell pollsters they're not voting for Trump -only to vote for him anyway (the only Trump voters with shame, I guess). Wisconsin and Pennsyl...

Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue

If these doctors and medical staff are right, and the death toll in Gaza is over 118,000 then that's the equivalent of one My Lai Massacre or two Oklahoma City bombings every day.


Gaza Healthcare Letters

Or if you go by percentages, the equivalent of 17,820,000 Americans being killed.

Haditha Photos Released After 19 Years

There was a lot of revulsion here at SDN about the Haditha Massacre -so much so that the usual milwankers were decidedly coy about excusing the slaughter, let alone cheering for it. Fox News, AM radio and other open sewers outdid themselves by not only regurgitating the lies used by the killers to e...

They were peddling "Joe & The Hoe" stickers three years ago, so I'm not exactly shocked they're taking this line against Harris (some GOP mouth breather called her the original Hawk Tuah! Girl). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p1qc1ibaFE It doesn't help that she got a position on a reg...

Re: Shots fired at Trump

The answer to why the little creep was able to get into a fairly obvious sniper's position without the Secret Service being there first is that most assassination attempts against public figures in the last 60 years have been done up close with a pistol, not at mid-long range with a rifle -for examp...

For the record, I like presidential candidates who don't get shot at by members of their own party. I would say to people who want to assassinate trump to "stand back and stand by. So go home, we love you, you're very special. Note for mods, that is a reference to things previously said by tru...

Anyone who was hoping the courts would save the country from Trump is as delusional as the middle-aged schlub who thinks the college girls at the local strip actually want to give him lap dances whether he pays or not.

His goose was cooked before his meltdown on CNN and was ready for the roasting pan before the Gaza Genocide. About the only thing that could save us from Cheeto Mussolini's second term is if Biden drops dead in the next six weeks -which would also save Biden's reputation.

Re: Shots fired at Trump

This is the case in almost every mass shooting: People think it's firecrackers because guns go "BANG!" in movies, not "pop".
