Imagine if AOC puts up a poll, Kamala Harris will win every time.

You maga cuck boys and bots of elon are so rabid right wingers - so what ⁰do you think the results will be?

It's actually quite dumb using a twitter poll to gauge voter sentiment in the USA. Bots, users from all over the world, and more bots... Only a dumb person props up twitter polls for validation.

No wonder rapist trump has been digging into AI recently.

You are desperate..Twitter have a breakdown of users 37, 33 31 % or so in matters political leanings. Before Musk was a darling of the left,he voted Biden 2020 ,he saw how horrible the Dems are,he bought Twitter and now he is being threatened by Brazil, UK and the EU because he won't remove what they don't want known.
Chief among them. The democrats are Communists.

Elon Musk conducted a poll on Twitter as to voter preference between trump and Kamala.
Last I checked 3 million votes had 76% for Trump.

Media swung into action. A poll of 3m Twitter users is currently being trashed.Super unscientific. But a 2000 NBC viewers poll is good.
That's gaslighting. Notice how the three top search results use the same talking point.

Obrigardo.
They should just swear Trump in. Twitter has 37,33,32 percentages roughly of democrats, Republicans and independents. Why bother with elections after that vote unless democrats are planning to cheat?

Why she avoid taking question and using MSM to lie to the people?
Is it that she knows democrats feel the vibes and will vote for anything democrat?
What's her policy? Trump takes questions every day. Including this one from a journalist yesterday.

Reporter: Kamala’s campaign attacked you for being in this town because it’s associated with white supremacy.

Trump: Who was here in 2021?

He is a tool. A couple of the clips I posted is the author saying they are politicizing mask that studies from 2006 are inconclusive.

The author had something to say about the chief editor going about apologizing. Something IjeBos is referencing here as proof. They don't know if mask works and I stand by that.

I keep asking him how come Africa with less mask did not see the worse of covid.

I'm not sure about Africa and masking.Id think there are lots of reasons and unlike any other country in America the more people died the more Trump looked bad,😅which is what the democrats wanted I also think a lot of people got infected without getting a COVID test and recovered in Africa. While in the west once you tested positive , it was isolation, vitamins, no drugs, no visitors, finally ventilator then death.
Pelosi. COVID is Trump's Katrina moment.

Anyway I believe the Cochrane study showed masks were largely not helpful because many who wore masks in the west got infected.

He doubled down. Sick bastard.

Kentucky’s Democrat Gov. Andy Beshear apparently wishes a relative in Sen. JD Vance’s (R-OH) family would get pregnant through rape so the Republican vice-presidential candidate would have to experience it.

While speaking with MSNBC during the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Tuesday, Beshear responded to a statement from host Mika Brzezinski about how people are “seeing the ramifications of the overturning of Roe.”
I mean, think about what some people have had to go through because of these laws. JD Vance calls pregnancy resulting from rape ‘inconvenient.’ Inconvenience is traffic. Make him go through this,” he said.

Beshear’s comments drew swift

These sick fvks push for abortion so they can freely rape and traffic young girls

Former Secretary of State John Kerry has been engaging in shadow diplomacy to try to preserve the Iran nuclear deal, a major diplomatic achievement of his, according to a new report.

Over recent months, Kerry has been holding meetings and speaking with big players in the Iran nuclear agreement, who, like Kerry, do not want President Donald Trump to withdraw the US from the deal, The Boston Globe reported.
Biden is pushing Israel to leave the Hamas terrorists alone so that his foreign policy looks good. His aim is not peace but to appease the genocidal Hamas.

What a night!

Indeed Joe deserves the gratitude of all Americans. Truly he gave his best, despite his personal loses and grief, he kept up going and fighting for the American people. The irony of his service; He was too young to be a Senator at 29 and then became too old to continue serving as the President. so when it matter most he bowed out with honor and pride. I honestly love the guy.

Special mention to the speech given by Hillary, one of the the pacesetter of this historic moment, she delivered that speech as a true women champion.

AOC served it hot from start to finish and you can't but believe this lady has long way to go.

And Rev. Warnock preached the message as a true messenger of God.

Finally, Jasmine Crockett got me emotional when she narrated her 1st meeting with Kamala and how that brief conversation fired her up... and she asked "the question before us is; will a vindictive vile villain violates voters' vision for a better America or not?

They pushed back his speech to around midnight when a lot of people are asleep. Why?
They thought he would blunder.
And Pelosi said she did what she had to do to get Biden step down, he is pretending to have graciously stepped down In reality they ousted him with go quietly or be forced out.
Is he going back to the WH really or he might secretly step down for Kamala ?

Tax cuts for the rich by Trump . Data showed everyone benefitted.

Concise analysis here.
https://heartland.org/publications/measuring-the-effects-of-the-republicans-tax-cuts-and-jobs-act-on-personal-income-taxes/

Democrats are the liars here. Whereas you can't admit to benefitting because Trump is a monster.

TheHill.com
IRS data proves Trump tax cuts benefited middle, working-class Americans most

......Income data published by the IRS clearly show that on average all income brackets benefited substantially from the Republicans’ tax reform law, with the biggest beneficiaries being working and middle-income filers, not the top 1 percent, as so many Democrats have argued.

A careful analysis of the IRS tax data, one that includes the effects of tax credits and other reforms to the tax code, shows that filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $15,000 to $50,000 enjoyed an average tax cut of 16 percent to 26 percent in 2018, the first year Republicans’ Tax Cuts and Jobs Act went into effect and the most recent year for which data is available.

Filers who earned $50,000 to $100,000 received a tax break of about 15 percent to 17 percent, and those earning $100,000 to $500,000 in adjusted gross income saw their personal income taxes cut by around 11 percent to 13 percent.

By comparison, no income group with an AGI of at least $500,000 received an average tax cut exceeding 9 percent, and the average tax cut for brackets starting at $1 million was less than 6 percent.

P/S I'm.done with asking you. You are too stoopid to admit benefitting from Trump. You criticize him every day childishly yet you was a benefeciary I'm sure if I trawl through I'll find you calling it tax cuts that benefitted only the top 1%.. .

PRETEND YOU ARE SURPRISED

Hamas rejects the new US proposal in the negotiations

A short time ago, the Hamas movement published an official announcement in which it stated that the new proposal meets Netanyahu's conditions, especially regarding his refusal to a permanent cease-fire, refusal to a total withdrawal, and insistence on an “occupation” of The Netzerim corridor of the Philadelphi corridor and the Rafah crossing.

This is in addition to setting new conditions regarding the exchange of prisoners and withdrawing from other sections, which prevents reaching a deal.

We hold Netanyahu fully responsible for the failure of the mediators' efforts and the failure to reach a deal.

Netanyahu should just tell them IDF will leave after every tunnel is blown up. They better provide maps and plans if the underground so that IDF leaves quickly.Bluff tell them to keep the hostages and do some serious underground blowing up which will send buildings above toppling. Do it for a week and they will come to the table
Or better just use firebombs and blowtorch, pretend not to care about hostages.

It's in their prayer 5 times a day about cursing the wayward who believe in many gods.
Allah gave his final revelations to that prophet, you who believe in God or Yahweh, Allah corrected and perfected his religion through his final prophet.

"She's not able to articulate a consistent and compelling message."

Kamala Harris dropped out of the 2020 primary race before voting began because she was so unpopular among Democrats.

She then hit a 28% approval rating, the lowest ever recorded for a Vice President—lower than Mike Pence, Dick Cheney, and Joe Biden.

ail who goes to see her. And the common theme is people want to like her, and then she doesn’t close the deal. She’s not able to articulate a consistent and compelling message that makes those voters who show up for her, who are interested in what she’s selling, that makes them decide, yes, this is the candidate I can commit to. And the TIME story and a Post story today have really laid out this frustration, especially within her team, that she hasn’t been able to make those decisions.
