As Trump and his spinners suddenly appear uncertain of victory amid last-minute shifts in the polls, the head of a Democratic Super PAC explains what must happen now for Harris to win.
I’m an American living in the Netherlands. The Dutch just elected a “conservative” goon named Geert Wilders several months ago. His rhetoric has been eerily similar to what’s coming out of the UK, Germany, France, Canada, and Australia. Hell, Meloni in Italy has roots in the OG fascist party. They’re getting too comfortable.
From what I can discern through my news apps (Associated Press and Reuters, these days), Palmer and Dutton are quite a vintage of proper cunts, but I argue the entire anglophone world is inundated with these authoritarian cocksuckers.
With sincerity, I hope that in your next election they’re shoved into the trash compactor of history along with all the other bitch-made invertebrate right-wing lunatics that are pissing in everyone’s coffee across the globe, just as we (hopefully) will do so with the Orange fucker today.
Actually, most of us are not. But that silly Electoral College we have…makes it so that Democrats have to win by huge margins just to break even on that and on things like representation in the House.
Technically it’s the other way around. The size of the electoral college is determined by the size of the House plus the Senate.
Now, the House was meant to increase in size as the population increased.
Now, since the mechanism for that increase wasn’t spelled out in the constitution, there were heated arguments every 10 years over the new maps, but it came to a head in 1921.
Long story short, the permanent apportionment act of 1929 set the size of the House at 435 members. We’ve added two states since then, and the US population has tripped. But still it’s 435.
Repealing that one law would fix several problems.
This is more about me and my skewed perspective than it is about Americans… but it’s easy to get the impression that amongst every group of 10 seppos there are 5 hipsters and 5 MAGA-cap-wearing idiots. Logically I know that this is false but it’s hard to supplant this image.
A while back I started watching a youtube channel about 4wd recovery or something in texas. They just seem like cool normal people, I’d be stoked to meet them while “wheeling” or what have you. The thing is, I’m pretty sure they would be Trump voters just because of where they are.
Would it be more accurate to suppose that maybe 2 thirds of people every where are just kind of normal people who aren’t as obsessed with politics as I am, but they do tend to line up behind whatever party their friends, family, and forebears have?
As an Australian I hope HarrisWalz wins because trumpet is a potential threat to other countries and not all of you americans are piece of shit bigots
As another Australian, a vote against Trump also is a vote against the Palmer united party, Dutton and other c**ts.

Australia’s kindest affirmation.
I feel like there was a missed opportunity to invoke the immortal diss “shit-cunts”.
