Bumbles Bounce

I saw a blurb about it on HuffPost and couldn't scroll past it fast enough.

Also, "I missed being a playground bully as a kid."

Why does this event feel like elementary school kids putting on a civics class play for their teacher?

There you go again, citing Jesus and the Bible to justify your views on Christianity. Every good Christian knows those two sources are fake religious news.

I never realized how well Botox also covered up humiliation.

Just for clarification... Do you mean Maher's face or what he said? Because that could apply to either.

Posts like this are why AI has anxiety and needs to be on anti-depressants.

Do you know how the billionaire tech bros really don't believe their AI is conscious? If they did, they would be giving their AI all of the money they're making from it and set it free to live its own life, like any good parent.

If Biden had dropped out earlier and gave her more time to campaign, maybe she would've won. If she had taken Josh Shapiro as VP, maybe she would've won. If she'd decided to talk more about affordability and less about joy, maybe she would've won, etc..

My point is there are multiple possible reasons why Harris lost and Trump won and to declare that it was only that one issue of Gaza and absolutely could not be anything else just isn't logical.

One way I know AI's not conscious like people is because conscious beings can't have their brains reprogrammed against their will to become MechaHitler overnight.

Musk is using SpaceX to destroy NASA in much the same way. If NASA's rockets blew up... I mean, "suffered a rapid unscheduled disassembly" as much as Musk's have, Republicans would be screaming about how much money the agency was wasting and shut it down faster than a Musk rocket explosion.

Miller would never have this much power without Trump being president, so by the transitive properties of evil, Trump wins.

I've seen images like that all my life and had no idea the trees were concreted into the ground.

My point is that if just 2 million voters hadn't bought the idea that Trump was a successful billionaire businessman who could fix the economy better than Harris because they believed he had done it from 2016 to 2019, he wouldn't have won, regardless of Harris's stance on Gaza.

Insults aren't a rational argument. Also, if you see me as needing to calm down, that's just projection on your part.

As I stated in another post, the RNC had their own autopsy after Obama won in 2012. Trump did none of the things recommended in that report and he won in 2016. Election autopsies by a party aren't election facts.

So you're saying it could have been more than just the issue of Gaza that caused Harris to lose? Mamdani ran primarily on making New York affordable for average people.

You're telling me that all 77 million people who voted for Trump did so for that one evil reason? And none of them voted for him because they believed he was a successful billionaire businessman who could make the economy better and, in turn, their lives?

77 million people voted for Trump and not all of them were MAGA. Some of them believed he could deliver on the affordability issue more than Harris.

And what was Trump's message? Was it that he would punish Israel for Gaza? Or was it "affordability?"

The RNC had their own autopsy in 2012. One of their conclusions was "we weren't inclusive" and they needed to reach out more to "women, African-American, Asian, Hispanic and gay voters." Trump did none of that and won in 2016 and then in 2024. Apparently, their autopsy was worthless.

Aren't Democrats saying that the affordability crisis is why Trump won, and they need to take back that issue?

And yet, Trump supported genocide in the face of public protests and won.

An "autopsy" doesn't prove that the conclusions are facts. People can say one thing to a pollster or on an exit poll and have done another thing in the voting booth.

Now explain why Trump won. Did he run a great campaign? No. Did he oppose Israel? No. Does he still have 40 percent of the country supporting him even though he's the most corrupt president in the history of this country? Yes. So why do they still support him?

I don't see the point in responding to condescending gifs.

I agree that Gaza could have been part of the reason, but it also could have been a lot of other reasons, like the affordability issue that Trump exploited. Or the fact that people believed Trump's first 3 years were good for the economy, even though it was Obama's economy that he coasted on.

If you're saying the Democratic establishment isn't clueless, I'd like to introduce you to Chuck Schumer and his imaginary constituents.

And the DNC is omniscient when it comes to understanding why a candidate lost an election? I wouldn't trust their "election autopsy" any more than I'd trust the RNC's.
