America decides..

Scrumpy · October 29, 2024, 08:08:27 AM

As I have said , many a time.. Politics do not interest me and I have little understanding when it comes to them..
However I am really looking forward to the results when USA go to the polls to elect a (New) president..

I really believe that Trump will get in , by a whisker..

America seems to embrace 2 party politics even more than we do.

How on earth anybody could consider Harris as a viable leader of the free world escapes me. Mind you they did elect Biden.

Trump's politics seem reasonably sound and from what I read Americans (or at least some Americans) prospered under him. He seems not to have decided to bomb anybody which is unusual for an American president.
Some very odd mannerisms though.

Indeed, even his Generals have been quoted as saying he is a fascist, and a big fan of Hitler and his policies

Well everyone has some policies that are good.

I'm hoping 'The Donald' gets elected.

I think everyone is somewhere on the "cognitive impairment" scale somewhere, since everyone will have a weakness of understanding something, even though they may be outstanding in most things.

It does have to be said though, that both the two wannabes do seem to satisfy the criteria to be given SEND assistance since both do seem to have a leaning towards incomprehensible babble.

Taylor Swift.. Bruce Springsteen among other big performers have all voiced their support for Harris..
I don't see any BIG stars supporting Trump..
Anyway.. Stars should do what they are best at and keep stumm about politics..

To be the President of America takes money not necessarily brains..

I hope Trump gets in.. Why!! .. because I do not like the other candidate..
Simple as that..

This month Trump said he plans to turn the "National Guard, or ... the military" on "sick people, radical left lunatics" and others he called the "enemy within". He has also threatened to shut down major media organisations.

It seems that Tommy Robinson fans are also fans of Trump, not surpring reall they are both sides of the same coin.

The side of godliness, righteousness and troof-fullness, praise be to Jesus.

In any case, since they tend to be anti unfettered immigration, it's hardly surprising.

If only he was running for our Prime Minister.. He is just what we need..

Or they're not sheeples & don't consume what the Establishment tries to feed them.

Only thing is, he is not far off 80, so how long before he morphs into another Biden . .

I also suspect lots will vote for KH, not particularly because they want her, but to keep the votes down for Trump.

That, plus her surname isn't so far down the alphabet, which will make things easier for them😉😬

I think the rednecks are more likely to be Trump supporters. If Harris gets it that will surely be more akin to what happened here with Labour getting in. No enthusiasm from her voters just aversions to Trump.

Out of the millions of people in a country, it never seems right that folks only get a choice of 2 to vote for!

He may be 78 but his marbles are all there, his only problem is he's not an eloquent speaker. He says what he feels, that can't be a bad thing.

Bruce who ? He may not have pop stars supporting him, but having Bobby Kennedy Jr. on his side is a winner !

I'm really looking forward to this night.
