So I have done a permaban toxx that B will lose the election and I'm thinking I'm right. Everywhere I turn its folks not getting by. I assume theyre going to find a way to not have B debate T "won't stoop to his level", etc so B the doddering dip won't have to go head to head. The student loan restart just before the election is really the piece de resistance as far as I can tell. Didn't B barely win and only because of millenials in philly? how can those millenials bother to vote for B again when he restarts their loans. In that regard you never know what T has up his sleeve. Thinking he might pull a "millenials were scammed by the lib colleges and shouldn't pay them." That is certainly more possible than B doing anything good by my math.

If Donny outright says he'll cover for defaulting on student loans he'll not only be the least hypocritical but most collapse-friendly two-term president ever

Add to that the fact that Trump is becoming keenly aware that he will very likely go to prison if he doesn't win the presidency and pardon himself. His sense of self preservation will get him to say literally anything that he thinks will move him towards that outcome.

I still laugh about the way the CHUDs rationalized this: he DID lock her up. All their enemies are locked up, and clones or holograms have replaced them as part of the kayfabe for the cosmic scale conflict Trump is embroiled in. Another (slightly less insane) alternative is they're under ankle monitor arrest. They still have to go about their public duties so as to not spook and warn all the other sickos that the Storm is coming for. Nevermind that every Bob Q TikTok and Karen Q Facebook knows about it somehow; the elites will be SO surprised when the trap springs!!!

Right. And I don't give a poo poo about hypocrisy or craven self-interest, if Donny wants to buy the winning votes from the middle/lower class then let him. He could hilariously end up the best president for workers in decades.

T was going around saying the US was a third world country under B. Lib journals were posting it as an own in an "America is already great" fashion. Not sure if he is saying this to own B or because he actually has his finger on the pulse of America....

That's the loving wildcard thing about that rear end in a top hat. His motivations and inputs are EXTREMELY different than the majority of the establishment. Where they have pencil shavings and neolib econ charts that say poor people have to die, he has craven self interest, paranoia, a pathological need to be loved by people he ultimately loathes, and zero respect for "our vaunted institutions."

This leads him to see an out of control black swan event like COVID and hit the panic button that says "send everyone $2,000 checks with my face on them" instead of the tried and true neolib catch-all response of saying they feel your pain, they're very concerned, they're forming an investigative committee on the feasibility of offering deferred tax credits on student loans for students of color studying STEM in a lower-medium income city if both their parents had no pre-existing conditions and verifiably died of COVID between 2020 and 2022.

We saw how they kneecapped Bernie so I am SUPER curious to see them work that playbook on a guy who ultimately is too brainwormed and spiteful to play ball. Should be "fun," for a factor of "fun" that includes the variable "this man has a cult of personality filled with armed psychos who would kill and die for him and already believe the election was stolen once."

I work as a designer at an agency that does food and beverage packaging and yeah, there are a lot of tricks our photographers use just because the actual ingredients themselves would melt and/or get real nasty under studio lighting. Glue instead of milk is obvious in the sense that it won't make cereal soggy; using vegetable oil to make me look juicy/cooked without having to actually cook it, etc.

Don't want to come across as defending brands here because I'm not, but this doesn't address the actual contents or quality of the products, just points out that they are made by the same brands. Which is only half the equation. There's lots of cases where the same brand will do a cheaper offbrand version of a product but they do it by greatly widening their tolerance limits and/or reducing the quality standards and changing the ingredients. Taking the infant formula example from that page - just because it's made by Abbott doesn't mean that it's an identical product to their flagship formulas. It very well may be, but you can only determine that by looking at what the ingredient mix is and what the tolerances are on the manufacturing, you can't just say "same company, therefore identical".

Trump isn't a genuine threat to their way of life, he made them all a whole lot of money last time he was in office
