Time to get on the TRUMP train

[blake]

i may also want to bet on the democrat side via bitcoin or litecoin, but only for even money. i admit that might be a stupid bet for the republican side cause i don't know what the odds are atm.

with biden, warren or sanders as the dem candidate, i have a hard time believing that trump would be an underdog. all of those candidates have huge flaws.

i really see this as a tossup but i was also convinced hillary would win so...

FYI on PredictIt, the market rate for Trump is a 43% chance of being reelected. I think that's a bit low.

Honestly 50/50 is probably a fair line at this point.

You willing to go straight up with me for $100? You take Trump to win the general election, I’ll take the other side. And if for some reason, he doesn’t run, including resigning in disgrace for some reason beforehand, I’ll let you off the hook and consider it a draw. I’ll even trust you to hold the money in the interim and send it to you using that familiar method of electronic payment you routinely allude to on the radio show. Just say the word.

LIBTARDS CLOSING UP SHOP IN SOUTH DAKOTA

https://www.argusleader.com/story/ne...es/2163781001/



"The South Dakota Democratic Party will no longer have a physical presence in the state.

The state party is closing its offices in Sioux Falls and Rapid City at the end of September, and party staff will begin working remotely due to the party's dwindling finances, according to SDDP Chair Paula Hawks."

you offering any action on trump 2020?

I'll be your huckleberry. What's the going rate?

tbh i really am just shopping for those sweet, sweet dishbucks but if i expand my range ill absolutely ping you, but ill probably just stack off on 5d.

[sonatine]

if yall arent spending your labor day watching trump's twitter feed, youre missing out on some wild ass fireworks.

Here’s an interesting barometer for you ‘tine.

When the quarter mil headshots begin to wane (and they will) you’ll have an edge. Til then ....

I have a story of wretched stupid peak excess I will share ...

In all seriousness, you toss off that phrase but it distills the whole socio-economic problem.

From an economic cycle viewpoint - which you were momentarily enchanted with - there is so much money out there .... it is indulging/chasing the slimmest and stupidest ideas ... cause what else are you gonna do when you have no place to stash the free cash.

Your limited number of nerds are in high demand to indulge (fun word) an unlimited number of stupid startups.

The kids are like running backs. They need to cash now and hard cause their knees won’t last forever. It’s about the passing game really.

Go forth and frolic but you better be ready to retire at 30. It will end sooner than later

[devidee]

Wait, people actually think Trump is losing in 2020?

That said, he’ll be the last Republican POTUS ever.

I don’t know a single Obama/Trump voter who has cooled on Trump here in the areas that delivered Trump the presidency. If anything, they love him more.

I think there’s an untapped market for him within right leaning voters who sat out last election. I know a handful of people who hated the direction the country was going, but viewed Trump as mentally unbalanced and sat the election out last go round. Assuming he doesn’t set the world on fire before the election, I see that segment of the voting block now being more comfortable pulling the lever for him.

I see chamber of commerce republicans like a Tony or business people who have given voice to being done with him, but those types are never pulling the lever for anyone the dems likely nominate who could also generate enthusiasm and a large turnout. I’m not counting on a lack of enthusiasm from Trump voters come election day. They’ll be there. I think he will get 5 million more votes than he did in the previous election.

A Biden type who could conceivably pull in that moderate republican comes at the cost of throwing a wet blanket on the democratic voters who are most engaged.


You can go back through this thread pre-election last time and I believed Trump would lose, but always said there must be a ton of support for Hillary in areas that are traditionally more red because I’m sitting here in counties that have voted blue for 75 years and I know these areas are going trump. I trusted the people who make their living off being right about elections knew where the numbers fell. Maybe they will this time, but I won’t be confident. I’m trusting my eyes and ears this time. I don’t like our nominees. They’re either really old or lacking the it factor. The dems will need amazing turnout to beat him. I wouldn’t be comfortable betting either way, but I’d take the dog either way if the price dropped to like .32.

I agree with much of this, I was one of the Republicans that sat out last time (will probably sit out again because I live in California so my vote doesn’t matter anyway). I also think there are a bunch of people out there that secretly plan on voting for Trump but won’t admit it publicly thus some of the polls may not be accurate (similar to 2016). These Dem nominees are scary AF to a lot of people.

i don't really agree with this.

he's run on different issues than any other republican in recent memory. why couldn't other future republican candidates steal his blueprint, maybe tone down the crazy tweets, and win going forward? in fact, i'm quite certain that every republican candidate will at least try this in 2024.

i find it hard to believe that a non-crazy version of trump would have no chance against an admitted socialist

This is the perspective of someone siloed in the Republican bubble. The greatest potential for the Dems to take back the White House is to nominate a candidate/presidential ticket that will drive millions of middle and working class voters who sat home in 2016 or didn’t vote for either Corrupt Hillary or The Orange Man-Baby then. And the best ones to do so that are among the frontrunners are Sanders and Warren. That’s why polling in the seeing states shows them each beating Trump in hypothetical head-to-head race. But keep being willfully ignorant if it make you feel less scared in the interim.

Both those candidates are for free healthcare and free college to all illegal immigrants (think about that). The overwhelming majority of the country is still a combination of moderate Republicans and moderate Democrats which will never back these ideas. Dems best bet is Biden.

Listen to yourself. Your opinions are skewed. If you bothered to check no candidate is for free anything for illegal immigrants. Your reading and listening to sources that are lying to you

You've got to be kidding.

The people who voted for Obama have forgotten about him.

Obama is busy making money and partying like a rockstar.

Obama doesn't even support Biden for President.

Biden will not be the democratic nominee for President.

It will either be Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren.

If the democrats are smart, they won't bother campaigning in New York or California.

They will instead "live" in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Florida which will decide the election.

A lot of the voters who voted for Trump know they made a mistake.

Most of the Trump voters now know that they voted for a fucking dumbass who has no clue about what the fuck he is doing.

Trump only knows how to cheat at golf and lie his fucking ass off.

This xenophobic fearmongering won't matter to the voters who are sick of the economic-rigging favoritism for the rich that Trump has helped the GOP add on top of what Team Dubya and the corporatist Dems enacted over the past three decades. Trump promised that his tax cuts wouldn't benefit the rich one bit. An utter baldfaced lie. Taxes for many in the middle class have increased under Trump because of limit on the deductibility of state taxes on federal income tax returns. Meanwhile, 80% of the cut in federal taxes went to the rich, and hedge fund managers will continue to face lower federal income tax rates than ordinary middle class workers.

trump actually has more to worry about with the trade war with china than anything else. this guy has the potential to tank the market.

Alright I stand corrected. But do you see how you throw the baby out with the bath water?
Your country spends more than on health care than most developed nations in the world.

You could easily afford national health care for all, and would likely save money doing so.
But your fear of the illegal stops you cold.
