lmao.

You got people standing outside. Look at all the people outside.

realizes someone might actually check

And then they actually pushed the people very far away from the building where we have beautiful cameras set up for the overflow crowds,

The overflow crowds were incredibly large but you wouldn’t know them, they go to another school.

I remember when Bernie Sanders filled the Moda Center in Portland and there were another estimated 9,000 people outside.

There were photographs and video to prove it.

Sooo… photos? Video?

Look at all that engagement and excitement only to be squandered by the democratic party so they could ram their bought and paid for politician down our throats instead. Still so sad.

It’s so utterly depressing. We still get the shittiest candidates rather than the populist ones. I hate voting because it’s “better than the alternative.” I’ll never forget the DNC for what they did to Bernie.

Not voting for dumpy ever but i’d vote for anything that gets us good candidates that are advocates and leaders, not politicians. I hope to christ we get more like Bernie in the future.

The media just needs to start blindsiding the lying bastard in every interview. He expects us to believe that absolutely no one took a photo of these supposed thousands of people outside not allowed to enter? Not a single member of his staff or campaign, no media, not even a random person?

You’d think at least a few of them would xeet it or truth it or whatever it is these people do.

Like, cmon, it’s 2024. If you’re going to lie about something that thousands of people experienced, at least have a couple of online alibis lined up to support the lie.

Like, seriously. This is gaslighting 101. You’d think they’d have it figured out by now. Weird.

Exactly. Simple. And for this simple act he will direct his supporters in a way that gets people killed, again.

That’s what Drumpf was saying, and was trying to rile up his mob for Jan 6 the second.

Biden needs to get the firing squads ready. You take one out that tries to fight and get in anyway and they’ll scatter like roaches.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
