American Presidential Election 2024

Trump appeared to mistakenly mix up the dates and broadcasters during his news conference earlier.

Step aside Joey boy, there’s a new senile king in town.

I was responding to Shamrock

I know but you and him came in with largely the same point about people being happy with their income which I was wondering why given the discussion.

So wanted to clarify the first bit I mentioned in response to you (could’ve equally been to sham), in case people were thinking there was a suggestion that everyone must be racing to the stock market to earn millions.

The guy was enlisted for like 25 years and retired. What’s stolen about that?

Less than 2 months apart. CBS not even hiding it lol

Anyway at least they agree on something but not sure it’s the most pressing topic, just a vote buying exercise.

If you were an American service worker, of which there are surely hundreds of thousands, it’s probably the most pressing topic the candidates could propose.

Hence ‘vote buying exercise’.

That’s why Kamala has agreed with trump on it as it’ll clearly be quite popular. The point was more about the cbs reporting :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s a vote buying exercise if you say it and don’t do it. If you say it and then do it you’re just straight up earning those votes.

No press conferences or long form interviews from Harris yet, only agreed to one debate in early September on abc.

She’s avoiding scrutiny like crazy for someone who didn’t even earn the nomination. Can’t knock the strategy

Trump is scrambling to make noise, he’s even back posting in twitter now

The delegates are literally voting to officially nominate her.

Have you done a search to see if they also just factually reported Trumps policy announcement when he made it?

It wouldn’t be unusual for a policy to be announced and then a day or two later for another piece like the above to appear. The Harris story contains the ‘cost’ too if you read beyond the headline.

Apparently Elon Musk’s interview with Trump was a deliciously shambolic disaster mostly due to IT issues and Trump rambling incoherently to some incredibly soft ball and rambling questions from Musk.

One day we’ll wonder how these two trust fund bros with a history of tanking their businesses were ever relevant.

Good call, I hadn’t and you’re right they did. Hold my hands up, point destroyed :clap:

I look forward to a tweet in the coming days highlighting Kamala backing the 250bn government cost.

Just not a great platform to host that kind of discussion. Bit surprised Trump didnt learn anything after DeSantis’ horrible rollout which he himself critiqued!

Maybe Trump peaked early because campaign he’s ruining now seems very low energy with no effect on Harris’ numbers. Maybe he’ll pick pace after the convention

I had the same thought. When they announced the interview I thought that Trump would be in the same place as Elon and the interview would be on camera. The DeSantis interview was SO bad and so buggy that I didn’t think they’d try it again.

He really is unique. He manages to have the same general awful policy positions as someone like Trump but with absolutely zero charisma.

He seems like a truly bizarre chap

Apparently he’s polling worse than Palin did lol

I genuinely think this will be a disastrous campaign for Trump and Vance.

Trump is already low key turning on Vance - he said in a recent interview that the “weird” insults are aimed at Vance and not himself :sweat_smile:

He’s also very online so there are years and years of his bad takes coming back at him.

It’s like if I ran for some leadership position at Arsenal. Just a decade of bad positions people would be able to use against me.
