In the vast majority of cases, something personally fundamental about a minion has to change to get them to stop following that guy. Facts and reality just aren't going to reach them at this point.

One possibility could be that it is really just a small percentage of big mouths, bots, and or foreign interference online. Another possibility could be that the 15% that watch the news are spreading it to other citizens via word of mouth. People could appear polarized online but when you talk to them in person they are different to avoid in person conflict. Yet another possibility could be that people are consuming news in bits and pieces from shady sources. It is likely any number of these possibilities and more. -
Harris's haymakers trigger Trump's temper.

Harris can't help but laugh when Trump accuses her of stealing his ideas and offers her a MAGA hat, then calling her a Marxist. She laughs again, clearly entertained, looking at him as if he's nothing more than a joke.

The irony of the kid telling Trump, of all people, that we need something that can instantly fact check things is most satirical. Is this kid really that clueless?

DMT-o Leo. Lol

@Soullee this dude is a PUA! Watch and learn. (part 2 of video)

I'm wondering what his nickname would be for Leo 😆

The childless cat lady is welcome, and she draws larger crowds than Trump so maybe she won the 2020 election. 🤷♂️

(satire) I have a concept of a plan. It's 9 years in the making. It's going to be great. The best plan ever. Everybody says so. It's coming soon. It will end all disease. Nobody will ever get sick again. Absolute immunity. It's great. 9 years in the making. Coming very soon. Next week maybe, but soon, very soon.

A political Christian is someone who uses Christian beliefs to make policies. Christianity influences how they think governments and society should be run on issues like gay marriage, abortion, etc. -

This wording could be misunderstood. Father of the Constitution James Madison was the lightest ever at 100 lbs. -

@Joshe it's possible. Don't forget to factor in rust and mileage. -

@Hardkill Then in 1864, Lincoln chose Democrat, Andrew Johnson, as his running mate, being the last time a dem/rep ticket ran. They ran under the National Union Party to promote unity during the Civil War. -
An elephant in a vacuum. It exists, and it is small, relatively.

Alan Lichtman's model is like an old, reliable car. It has a long history of getting the job done, and it still works well today. But sooner or later, it might stop working, and you're just hoping it lasts a little longer. As the world changes, especially with new technology and shifting politics, there’s a chance that this model won’t keep up forever. Let's just hope it's not today. As for how I think about the election situation itself, it could be better, and it could be worse. I’m just glad the Democrats have a fair chance, about 50%, of winning. It would feel hopeless if their chances were slim. -
Before we criticize MAGA we must first steel man MAGA.

That's perfect 😆

Oh, okay. Off-topic, you should use the word smorgasbord in the next two videos on this topic also.

@Leo GuraYou have said that when people like Trump uses his/her mind to con the public, that that's not really intelligence, which I agree. You now say that Putin's Brain wants to regress Russia back to premodernism and that for that plan he is genius. What's the difference?

Of the three isms in the video, I relate to postmodernism the most by far. Some notes from the postmodern perspective: The primal thing in human discourse and even human activity is not truth seeking. It's survival. Postmodernism is not a grand narrative. Take it as a perspective. Truth is socially justified beliefs. Truth is what your contemporaries let you get away with.

Vance is going to have to couch his words very carefully in this debate. 😄 -

Did anyone just ask Alexa why she is giving answers for Kamala and not for Trump? -
