"Somebody said to me the other day, ‘You’re the most famous person in the world by far,’” President Trump says. "I said, ‘No I’m not, no I’m not.' They said, ‘Yes you are.' I said, ‘Nope.' They said, ‘Who’s more famous?' I said, ‘Jesus Christ.’"
Damn, that’s really good. Showing you’re humble by saying you’re famous, but not as famous as Jesus because you’re not a megalomaniac. Also, that the quality you associate most strongly with him is fame.
He’s a natural, and we’ll never see another like him.
Still gobsmacked by the Trump campaign deciding to shit on Mr. Rogers.
They continue to be the absolute dumbest people around. A great example as to what happens when you surround yourself almost exclusively with sycophants, and no one with any actual ability to do, well, anything.
In the minds of Pubs, showing compassion and empthay for your fellow man (as Mr. Rogers, and incidentally Jesus, did) is a sign of weakness. They revere the strong man asshole facade a la Putin and innumerable other dictators.
It's a town hall, it's a place for people with anxieties to ask the president to reassure their anxieties. The question from a self-described progressive is no dumber or smarter than any other question that gets asked at these things.
Questions can be bad, that other questions are equally bad doesn't make something that doesn't make sense a good question. I mean I'd say the same if someone asked Biden how can his presidency prevent aliens from invading.
I'd like to know how someone believes electing Biden harms progressives.
I think it stems from the attempts to win over Republicans upset with Trump. The concern is, if Biden wins the presidency, the Democrats will believe that is the winning strategy and begin catering more to the right and Republicans rather than progressives and the left leaning portion of the party.
what if it is the winning strategy.
then we're left with one conservative party and one blood-and-soil death cult party, and nobody in office to advocate for anything left of center-right
i have no problem letting the Democratic party become the de facto conservative party if they can be replaced by an actual leftist party, but that ain't happening anytime soon
I cannot imagine anyone think of the Democrats as a conservative party, even in a future where a national unity party emerges.
it's this extremely childish notion that anyone who only mostly agrees with me is no better than someone i completely disagree with
progressives move the Democratic Party and the Overton Window (granting the spurious notion it exists) to the left every single election and then a subset cry about how the Democratic Party is no better than Republicans when it comes to progressive issues because they won't promise to burn down all of western society and replace it with a utopian commune
Given that y'all have run off every poster who's tried to come in here and represent the leftist position by posting stuff like the above and generally calling them whiny babies it feels pretty shitty that y'all are still flogging that dead horse with no one left to offer the other side of the debate.
Pretty sure there are still plenty of leftists here. I've felt in the past that the militant leftists here have run off all the centrists, but I doubt that's really true either.

There's a satirical essay on an ancient website that purports to explain why people who disagree with you politically are so evil/stupid. It starts by laying out the following points (paraphrased)
Ancient humans survived by avoiding Bad Things
Avoiding Bad Things requires the ability to feel pain and fear, so those things got selected for
Almost everyone feels both pain and fear, but most of us are more sensitive to one or the other
People who are more sensitive to pain tend to lean liberal, while people who are more sensitive to fear tend to lean conservative
Both kinds of people are necessary, because each compensates for the other's blind spots
But because each side's worldview is heavily biased toward the other's blind spots, they are mutually incomprehensible
Fifteen years and countless articles, analyses, and thinkpieces by Very Smart People later, it's still the single best explanation I've ever seen for the political and cultural divide.
"Somebody said to me the other day, ‘You’re the most famous person in the world by far,’” President Trump says. "I said, ‘No I’m not, no I’m not.' They said, ‘Yes you are.' I said, ‘Nope.' They said, ‘Who’s more famous?' I said, ‘Jesus Christ.’"

Yeah how inhuman and out of touch do you have to be to think comparing someone to Mister Rogers is a sick burn?
Remember, Fox & Friends literally ran a segment on how Mr. Rogers ruined the millenial generation.
That's the thing, though. Yeah, it's a sick burn to your core demographic... who you DESPERATELY need to expand beyond to win the election.
They keep doubling down on speaking to folks who are already, 100%, going to vote for them. This is not how you win an election where you're currently polling behind in double digits, and high single digits in the states you need to win.
But that's been the story of the campaign. They think they can just run the exact same playbook as last time and win. They've made no effort to expand their appeal.
Trump admin denied California a disaster declaration for the 6 catastrophic wild fires in the state. So "fuck you you vote for democrats" a real uniter that guy.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
If we accept the common premise that fundraising = grassroot enthusiasm, the grassroots are very enthusiastic about the top of the ticket and most of the competitive Senate candidates

Trump has always only wanted to be President of the people that liked him. And it's only gotten worse as time has gone on and he's had to confront doing the actual job stolen for and by him in 2016. And now on top of that he's in his own little bubble being fed only the most soothing facts by the people around him. He can't see past his own base at this point and no longer believes what little information that reaches him that suggests he should.

In normal circumstances, I did run to the conservative side. I learned quickly to shut up about those things because I come here to BS about games, and in most circumstances minds aren't being changed, it's just posting witty quips. But the last 10 years especially has been a horrible escalation of political action and rhetoric from Republicans, I can't really call myself that anymore. The party I had some vestigial fondness for growing doesn't exist in the here and now. If the entire old Bush administration rejects Trump's governance, that's about as bad as it gets. It's not getting fixed with this election alone, but at least America can come down off of suicide watch.
I'll happily argue the merits of American hegemony at a later date, when we aren't wearing our pants on our head.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: If you are a leftie left wing liberal and you want your policies to be more then a pipe dream then you need to support the democrats with every fibre of your being. They may not be able to make them happen right her and right now, but they're the best choice you have for laying the foundation for whatever issues you might have.

I'm pretty far left, and I would have preferred Elizabeth Warren to be the Democratic Presidential Nominee, but I'm quite happy to vote for Joe Biden because first and foremost is getting the fascist dipshits out of power. I'm not getting everything I wanted, but I'm getting enough.

Trump to suburban women voters: "I let you have the American dream."
Let you? Really? As if women needed your permission for anything? Oh, piss off, you gross deviant troglodyte.
Edit: Yes, I know it's just a thinly veiled dogwhistle in an obvious attempt to appeal to white suburbanite women's racism and inner fear of the 'wrong people' moving into their neighborhoods when he mentions "the American dream".

I’m not. They shit on goodness. Real goodness. Literally every chance they get. I can only make assumptions, but I assume it’s because real goodness and real morals makes them uncomfortable and potentially harms their ability to try and convince people that they own actual goodness.
Mr. Rogers is exactly the kind of icon of goodness and tolerance that would offend their demonic sensibilities.

=/ I know Biden's trying, but he tripped a bit over that transgender protection question. He was trying to be supportive, especially to transgender persons of color, but his stutter came on hard as his mind tried to think of the right words to say, and it came out a bit cringy/muddy. Heart's in the right place, but that'll upset some people.
What exactly was so bad about his response? Asking legitimately, I thought it was fine, but I'm also not the target audience of that question. He didn't seem to say anything I would consider cringy and correctly identified the ladies child as a daughter?
The answer wasn't necessarily bad. It was overall a good answer! But some of the word choices that he used were a little outdated. Little things that if you didn't know to be listening you might not have noticed.
There was something about a person choosing to be (gay or trans? I missed the context of the exact quote) and then another phrase of a person that he knew that was a man that chose to become a woman.
Very cringey for people that actually know much of anything around Trans* and LGBT language and words, but still relatively OK for a 70 something year old who likely didn't really know much about this before, but is obviously trying to learn and trying to be sincere.
Nothing that he said in that answer was necessarily objectionable. It boiled down to essentially, "nobody has the right to tell anybody that they can't exist and be who they want to be". But just some diction and phrasing issues.
