Gumball Gumption posted:Trump has called him a left wing radical compared to Joe trump talks trash; news at 11. that's a far cry from hiring a director of ratfucking in order to knock him off the ballot under the guise of saving democracy. maybe the gop will do that, too--but it's been hilarious to see the heel-turn among libs trying to pretend that rfk is gonna be trump's downfall bc these 2 polls out of 50 have said so. also, iirc, those 2 polls were national ones and also the effect was fairly negligible. like I said, we'll know rfk hurts trump more than biden when the democrats stop trying to brand him & block him.

Willa Rogers posted:Only in 2 surveys out of the last dozen or so. Meanwhile, democrats keep trying to brand him as a maga plant, instead of painting his candidacy like he's a threat to biden, not trump. I think even if you Jedi mindmelded proof into their brains that laying off Kennedy would undercut Trump and help Biden win they would still go hard on RFK with everything they have because their power depends on being "the only alternative to Republicans that can win" and a strong third party campaign takes that away from them. Willa Rogers posted:As I said, step back from the media/lib echo chamber & look beyond the antivax: Young people are very much in the "pox on both their houses" camp & less inclined to, say, buy into the Save Our Democracy, Especially From the Russkies bullshit. I fully admit this is just my surface impression and I'd love it if someone collected that info

I wonder if the Sierra Club lobbies against the green party with Dems, since they're all in the same bed.

Jimong5 posted:Operation warp speed comes to mind. I think that's a stretch; I've heard of no anti-trump group or even individual voters opposing him for that reason; have you? The rfk branding by dems is a great case study in how political echo chambers become so reductive & simplistic in their campaign coverage that campaign-propagated tropes become the accepted reality for voters, even high-info voters, because it's comfortable for them.

Willa Rogers posted:I haven't seen them try to knock off libertarian candidates from the ballot over the last 50 years, but maybe it's happened. Libertarian ideology is too unpopular to ever be a threat so they have no reason to bother imo Libertarians have a zero point zero percent chance of ever contesting the Dems' position as the alternative to Republicans since lolberts are Republicans pretty much. I guess I should have said they care more about destroying third parties like RFK or the Greens who offer another alternative to Republicans than about beating Trump. They also don't care about other Republican clones like the Constitution Party etc VitalSigns has issued a correction as of 20:01 on Apr 22, 2024 |

Some of the margins were very small so I could just about believe it, though there are counterexamples (like the Minnesota thing I posted), and also things like Wisconsin where something like four times her loss margin were people who were excluded due to the state's new voter ID law

Biden is so far gone I'm not sure he even knows what he's saying anymore. Handlers whisper responses in his ear and he's so senile that he messes them up between his pudding brain and his mouth.

Willa Rogers posted:Didn't more people vote libertarian in the swing states that hillary lost than green? Let me be a little more explicit about where we agree and disagree. I agree with you that a few polls aren't enough to prove that RFK hurts Trump more than Biden. I tend to think he does but you're right that it's just my opinion and if we had more evidence it could prove me wrong. I disagree with you that Dems would stop trying to ban RFK if he really is helping Biden. There are more important things to them than just beating Trump (for example: killing everyone in Gaza)

Took me a few minutes of cross checking but the Biden admin is definitely only blocking ~ new ~ leases on ANWAR, not ending any existing ones. so his dumbass statement of ending all drilling is just loving wrong.
