Red, Blue, Red, Blue, Red, Blue... (yawn) l hope the the 33% of voters that usually can't be bothered all come out of their zombie-like trance to vote for Jill Stein.

Biden has alienated every conceivable base and Kamala and the Democrats are doing everything you talk about in the piece.

Meanwhile, Trump is pursuing a MAGA "culture war" agenda instead of an economic populists one and is putting people like Charlie Kirk and Elon Musk in charge of voter reach out...and they're doing badly.

It legitimately feels like both candidates are trying to throw the election.

I'm going to be a little happy when the election's over and I don't have to hear about it anymore and watching the meltdown of whichever side loses is going to be entertaining.

I wasted 40+ years voting for democrats and life in America only went downhill. I did NOT vote for Genocide Joe & I will not vote for do nothing different or better Kamala Harris. I am voting for Jill Stein because she has a wonderful platform and mostly because she wants to end the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, as I do. I suspect Trump will be our next President, as much as I don't like him, he is a small step better than the democrats who now do nothing good.

They're definitely losing. They chose to forego primaries by inserting a cackling hyena who slept her way to Washington with no platform. Trump's assassination theatre riled up the base and made others feel sorry for him. It's all planned out.

What I understand is that Bill Clinton and his 'New Democrats' abandoned the working class and populist (socialist) policies in favor of embracing the PMC (Professional Managerial Class) and neoliberalism. I suppose he figured they paid better…

He noticed how flush the Republican Party was with money from pandering to those groups and wanted a cut

And possibly important is Biden's politically blind ego driven decision to run again and prevent the Dems from hashing out these mistaken policies and coming up with a more viable candidate.

You're stuck so far down in the lies you can't pull yourself out. And nobody is gonna dive that deep to attempt to find you because they likely couldn't find their own way out if they did.

The dems deserve to lose; they did nothing good to vote for. Our gov't SUCKS, Americans are only going to the edge of poverty and getting pushed off. America is like the boat, the Titanic and we are going down, it is time to jump off, but where do we go to?

Lazy misspelling while trying to get me to read is a “loosing strategy”.

I have come to a similar conclusion. But what awaits a Second Trump presidency?

A global deep state minefield awaits the second Trump presidency

Why is Donald Trump the preferred US deep state candidate for 2024? What connects Russia's invasion of Eastern Ukraine to Covid-19? What was Joe Biden’s true role in the White House?

There is a lot here. Some typos ; but I waded through them. I would like to print it and keep it ! And re read it. Please put out a book / essay PRINTABLE. You are a great observer and appear unbiased ! Unlike MSM and Punters as per usual. Keep it up. And thanks for work and memory and assessment. I must admit I am now in a state of SHOCK.

Sorry, not sorry, Muslim voters against Israel (Islamists) don’t belong here. Oh,, and the only genocidal act was on 10/7/2023. EVERYTHING since has been a completely justified war on Jew hating terrororists.

Painting the GOP party as antiwar is one of the most inane things I've yet to read

Well you clearly have reading comprehension issues then because I made it clear that it’s just empty rhetoric and that they are not anti war.

Still problematic because not everyone is able to discern this
