I used to think this was true but if Trump tries to deport millions of people and institutes a blanket tariff on all imported goods I’m worried about my 401k and retirement plans.

Right. My MAGA sister and BIL have only Social Security. They actually would be gleeful if the liberal elite lost all of their 401K savings.

Latinos wanting to test the 'leopards eating faces' theory by voting Trump. It's hard to imagine a more vulnerable ethnic group, but here we are.

there's a latino family in my parents neighborhood with a trump sign in their yard......boggles the mind. most of the family speaks broken english and not well.

just a staggering lack of self awareness from these folks. right wingers don't care that you agree with them on social issues if your skin is brown and you don't speak english.

This is my problem. As a young, straight, white man I'd probably face no repercussions from a trump presidency

Same here in terms of being able to "pass" (if it comes to that) but I fear my yard sign will give me away. They're not gonna forget (or forgive) that "obviously"..

Why is Jill Stein Trying to Get Trump Elected? | Crooked Media

crooked.com crooked.com

Jill Stein may not be polling high, but in several states she’s poised to bring in more votes than the margin of error between Harris and Trump. Her campaign events tout that they could cost Harris key states like Michigan, and thus the election. Is this what she wants? A closer look at Stein’s 20 years in politics reveals the Green Party candidate has had little success in elevating left-wing positions, and many of her stances—including a ceasefire in Gaza—aren’t nearly as clear cut as they seem. What’s more, Stein’s presidential runs have been aided and funded by a slew of Trump lawyers and Republican consultants. What’s her game plan here? Is she going to spoil this election? How many metaphors will Max and Erin deploy to describe her hypocrisy? Listen to this week’s “How We Got Here” to find out.

warning, high chance you come away furious. Especially the part about Stein claiming to be a champion for Palestine, campaigning heavily in Michigan, WHILE specifically targeting Talib to overturn that seat.

Might as well just have Putin running directly.

I no longer have capacity for learning about obvious grifters. They essentially have the same core band of psychological characteristics with self, self, self shared amongst all, i.e. they aren't interesting; their socially nefarious motivations are clear for anyone paying attention; and our system does a piss poor job of holding them to account. I have a grim view of humanity to begin with and learning more about charlatans like Stein further ingrains a set of beliefs I would rather not plunge into.

There are Jill Steins and there are Mike Lindells. I have more patience for Lindells, as I think alongside the self, self, self exists some genuinely deep biochemical issues.

Jill Stein is a Russian asset. Her goal in 2016 was to torpedo Clinton. Her goal now is to torpedo Harris.

And I honestly think our goal should morph to treating Russian assets in precisely the manner that Putin treats his dissenters. I'm not the least bit sorry for that viewpoint either.

. . .. Instead they'll find some way to blame Democrats for it all, and Trump and his minions will do everything they can to deflect all the blame onto the Democrats. It's who we are now.

So, has anything like this happened in the world in the last 100 years? Has some other wannabe dictator chosen the path to power of blaming all of society's ills and a few identifiable groups? Maybe if we search history, say 1930's Germany, we might get a preview of where all this Trump talk leads. And Republicans nod their heads sadly and think, "Well if that's what it takes, then they have left us no other choice."
 
The keys are going to be



(1) Is Trump's hurrican chaos bump transient? Trump and Putin buts filled the multimedia domain with lies, alternative facts, stupdity, and innuendo. Somehow Biden was controlling the weather and deliberately blocking aid, but senile and incompetent at the same time. FEMA funds are boing redirected to the border...while Trump and Republicans voted to halt funding to FEMA or eliminate the federal program!



While state, Federal FEMA, private rescue, disaster relief in western NC were the largest ever, Biden and Kamala optics took a couple of days. Kamala and Biden visited NC, coordinated with Gov. Cooper under very challenging circumstances. A once in a 1000 year event made once in a decade by climate change.

Especially after Helene, Feds/FEMA, and Florida were poised and prepared for Milton. DeSantis politicized his lame attempt at interference in the Fed response/communication. Biden is visiting Florida, while Kamala is in NC while clean-up continues.

https://www.usnews.com/news/nationa...s-desantis-ahead-of-hurricane-milton-landfall

As Trump and deSantis lies are revealed to be patently false, my hope is that the bump is temporary.

Donald Trump erases Kamala Harris' lead in new national poll

(2) Trump attracvting billionaire $$ for campaigns in PA, MI, NC.



Vance was brought in to siphon tech billionaire bro. $$ to the Trump campaign...not to draw votes in Ohio or any other state.
 
Pretty much

It really frustrates me, but I know a lot of Venezuleans and Nicaraguan immigrants who are full Trump.

Pod Save America talked about if Biden had 1% less support from Latinos, he would have lost Arizona. Harris is doing worse with Latinos than Biden. Arizona looking out of reach to me.

My wife and I engaged our twenty year old Latino female waitress at our favorite Mexican restaurant this past week.

She’s voting for Trump.

I was dumbfounded and broken. 😞

Broad brush warning....

Thats because many Hispanic cultures are FAR more racist to Mexicans than even the most virulent American right wingers. As long as Trump portrays Mexicans in the worst possible light, he will have the votes of many Hispanic groups.
