Harris or Trump in November

[winsor 236]

I despise both candidates for different reasons, but suspect Harris will win because Trump is so personally loathsome.

Putting her charge of an economy on the brink ($35 Trillion some-odd and counting?) is likely the kiss of death, and she's sure to fuck things up as we swirl the drain.

I doubt if four years is enough to detox from Trump, but it's a start.

Why we are cool with going the way of Zimbabwe and Venezuela escapes me, but too many people simply can't run the numbers.  Trump isn't a CPA, but Harris has to take off her shoes to count over 10.

Trump is a perfectly dreadful human being by any measure, but Harris is the candidate I'd choose if my goal was to destroy the country - with the best of intentions, of course.

Whoever wins, we're screwed.

 

BSBD,

Winsor

Please explain how and where this analysis is supported.

I think it’s quite simple: he’d prefer a candidate who can just unzip their pants to get to 11.

Or in Trumps case, 10.5.

It's simply denigrating to make such a statement. Certainly there isn't enough there to say it's also racist or misogynistic but I would think his estimable smarts would make obvious the implication. Maybe it was a simple bad attempt at making a funny and we have him all wrong.

No you've done it. He'll be off on his personal Twitter claiming that people are saying he's got 10.5"

Sure, but that’s because you just don’t pay much attention to reality.

?? Denigration was the point.  No conservative can hope to win by lauding Trump's strengths, so denigration of the other candidate is pretty much the only option.

"Hitler is a perfectly dreadful human being by any measure, but von Hindenberg is the candidate I'd choose if my goal was to destroy the country."  Works just as well today.  After all, von Hindenberg was a communist and a Marxist according to his enemies.  And a zeppelin named after him crashed.  No one wants THAT!

Did Jesus say that or did someone say that someone said Jesus said that?

I'm sure there were a few more someones in between.  Even Luke (11) and Matthew (6) don't agree on what was said, after a few someones had  added/subtracted/modified/mistranslated  bits along the way, and Mark and John didn't, apparently, think it worth mentioning at all.

So in today's Christo/Republican vernacular it's at least directionally accurate and a more than sufficient possible certainty to organize not only your life around the idea but also the lives of anyone within grabbing distance. AMARANTH!

Odd to see religion simply celebrates death. Every flavor of religion seems to do this.  

And make believe characters in stories thousands of years old are "coming"?

Horse hockey.

GOP affiliated pollsters have been creating jerry rigged polls with far more pro-Trump results than average, so when they lose certain battleground states they can point at those results and say ‘hey look! We were up by 5 and then lost so it must be rigged!’ 

The man is a cancer on the nation and he is metastasising.

Leaving aside this is the same shit you pulled with the ‘Hillary is more evil’ without ever saying why (you just really hate women I guess), my one favourite thing about the end of this election season is that Trump is so dumb he thinks he invented IVF.

You'd think with something apparently so important, Matthew and Luke would have agreed on what was in it, and Mark would at least have given it a passing mention.  John, of course, was probably high at the time.

From memory that is quite a big shift for you. While I may not share your beliefs, it’s good to see you not being hypocritical.
