Not saying it won't or can't happen, but the most likely case for a GOP win is the youth vote. And if you watch the interviews of the younger voters (18-26ish), there is a large # of them who are Trump supporters who tend to either be brainwashed lemmings OR trust fund type babies (i.e., parents are rich, they are entitled). That's not to say that the younger voters who are DNC leaning aren't lemmings in their own right, but at least the things they're fighting for or arguing for, tend to benefit people instead of control them. The DNC message is resonating *more* with younger voters than the GOP message is. That's where the election will be won or lost. Whether or not the younger voters vote is the key.
There is absolutely no reason for them to squeeze tho, they're *already* getting record profits. If they try to increase the cost too much, it'll have an adverse reaction. They're playing it smart, because they know a slow increase in price is much easier for Americans (and other countries) to swallow. It's horse shit (especially how the west coast prices are significantly higher than anywhere else), but it's smart business.
Ringo is 83 and he is touring all the time..he just had a fall on stage recently but he's fit for a guy Biden's age. Like Paul he credits 50 some years of being vegan with his health.
I don't think it matters if he's fit. As long as he'll beat Trump. If he won't beat Trump get somebody in who will. Biden being brain dead with his cabinet is far better than having Trump in office. Far, far less damaging.
I don't mind the insults, it's the blind eye they throw in Trumps direction that gets me. Like, I don't know a single person who is giddy about Biden being president in the manner that MAGA are about Donald Trump just existing. There are no flags with Biden cos playing as Rambo, or weird AI generated paintings of Biden with ripped muscles, etc. And if he gaffes, most people go 'well, he is old, but it's not really a major issue" vs "HE DID NOT MESS UP!" or claim he's speaking in code or just flat out ignore it and gas light the fuck out of people that the MAGA people do. Yah, there are concerns with his age, and yah, he's made a few blunders...but when people bring those up (and ignore Trumps significantly larger amount of them), it's like seeing a crack addict ridicule someone who someone who likes sweets.
One guy who's far past his prime with a very capable and experienced cabinet that respects democracy. The other is legit evil who is trying to weaken the US and become like Putin, Xi, and Un, and who caused the US to have it's democracy rating downgraded 3 times during a single presidential term. Unfortunately I have no choice but to vote against evil on this one. The literal survival of our country is in the balance. The GOP needs to die.
Not hyperbole at all. US democracy rating was literally downgraded 3 times under Trump. -After US Intel confirmed they believed there was Russian medling in 2016 election -After the white house refused to provide documents subpoenaed by Congress. -After Jan 6th. Trump has praised authoritarian leaders repeatedly. https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/02/politics/donald-trump-dictators-kim-jong-un-vladimir-putin/index.html
I don't know that the GOP needs to die. Certain people should not be elected to office for sure. The party certainly needs to take a good look at their platform and change their priorities. Similar things could be said of the Democrats, but at least they aren't pushing fascism among other things.
Listen to Trump's own words. He talked about death penalty for General Millie. Treason charges against MSNBC. Firing thousands of civil servants and replacing them with individuals loyal only to him. Far right organizations are compiling lists of loyalists to fill what had always been non political positions. Jail political opponents. He has said he is running for retribution, to get revenge against anyone who opposed him. Tuberville is blocking military appointments. Trump will fill them with a new command loyal to him only. Military tends conservative but also institutionalist. And never leave office. He also accused Jeb Bush of starting Iraq war. But Biden is old.
