Trump Tells Supporters ‘Don’t Worry About Voting’ On Election Night
Trump Tells Supporters ‘Don’t Worry About Voting’ On Election Night
The odd comment was quickly picked up by the Never Back Down PAC which backs Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) 2024 presidential bid
You're viewing a single thread.
It's so he can start bitching more and more after he loses again and his cult can try to overthrow the government again.
He wants to break the system, dumbasses.
He is prove the system is already broken. When in a democracy, voters who can read and write, who are impoverished and on avg can't even afford a $500 emergency vote for a billionaire, I'd say that is a failure of the system.
edit: I am not saying billionaires are worse than anybody else, I am just saying their interests probably don't have a lot of overlap with the avg voter.
It's ok, I'll say it, billionaires are greedy fucks killing our society, individuals who should not exist in a functional society.
Billionaires are worse than everyone else. Greed on their scale is killing the planet and people.
No one becomes a billionaire through ethical means. You have to grind people down to make that kind of money.
To prove it, just how rich can someone get without making any unethical choices?
Imagine waking up with billions of dollars. What would you do with it? If you say keep it and try o take more from the populous then you are an enemy of the populous. They have brain damage from greed. They are worse than everyone else.
I would spend all but 1 billion on just buying wetlands and the legal resources to make sure they never get touched. Doing good the laziest way possible.
With the remaining billion I will start my own space program.
Oh don't apologize! Let me show you something:
- 10,000 seconds = 2.8 hours
- 100,000 seconds = 27.8 hours
- 1,000,000 seconds = 11.6 days
- 10,000,000 seconds = 115.7 days
- 1,000,000,000 seconds = 31.7 YEARS
I haven't even lived for a billion seconds yet and I was born in 94! A billion is a truly obscene high quantity. I don't think there's a moral way to gain that much wealth, and if there is, it's an exceptionally rare possibility.
I am 1,735,668,000 seconds old, and so I have seen some shit. Donald Trump is just an unseemly hiccup in an insignificant span of time. There were ghastly horrors before him and there will be ghastly horrors after him. These nuisances seem important because this is your now, you'll realize how little they meant when this is your then. As in, it seemed so important then, while you look back at the Land of Then from the clear hilltops of After.
I hope so. I'd rather this all be something my kids or grandkids ask me about.
They are objectively worse - it's immoral for a billionaire to exist (meaning to amass that amount of money, not to physically exist). You can't get to that point without knowingly/actively hurting others. They are worse people, period... and you don't have to cover your bases and backpedal on this point. Starts to sound line the famous "temporarily embarrassed millionaires" quote.
That’s why the Electoral College exists
If people are voting for Trump then they will put their votes towards a better alternative
Ironically Hillary Clinton had 3 million more votes than Trump. Without electoral college it would have been a Hillary Presidency.
We've had 6 presidential elections in the 21st century. The Republican candidate won the popular vote one out of those 6 times. Yet we've had 3 Republican Presidential terms resulting from those elections.
Yes, it doesn’t work as intended but political parties weren’t intended either
I think it works as intended by those who put it in place.
A lot of things brought in were done so because they didn’t know how to exploit it
He's leading the polls?
Only in certain polls, and as we have seen time and again, the polls don't mean shit. Bernie was leading in the polls this far out from the election in 2019. "Somehow" he isn't president.
Hell, Hillary was leading in the polls on, and after, election day 2016. She won the general election.....
The electoral college needs to be abolished.
Agreed. If the Superbowl was "won" by the losing team 17% of the time people would riot.
Only in certain polls,
.. specifically the majority of polls published in the last week: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/national/
That being 8/13 at the time of writing with Biden only leading in one.
"The polls"
If I go outside and ask the three young kids riding their bikes what their favorite ice cream is, I've joust conducted a poll.
Apropos to this specific scenario, if I go to a chocolate lovers convention and ask their favorite ice cream flavor, guess which flavor might leaf the way. Now what is while along the question, I was wearing a t-shirt that says "vote for chocolate and I'll give you $20 bucks".
"Chocolate is leading in the polls, okay... You know it, I know it."
What point are you trying to make?
Are you implying that only live and die Trump voters are being polled?
I mean, to a degree, polling in general is still conducted with a very antiquated structure that tends to bring in responses predominately from the underemployed, undereducated and elderly (so huge cross section of enthusiastic trump voters over represented in those groups). But my specific point here was that he's ambiguously citing "polls" and not a specific poll - They aren't all created equal and in fact, you can bet the ones that trump would proudly reference are typically biased as fuck in how they ask questions and analyze results.
