I was surprised to read this headline (and the article attached) on the BBC site. Granted that she has not gone into depth on policies yet but she has still outlined far more specifics that Trump, yet the article focuses on her campaign. Not very impressive by this news organisation.
Bit of a strange post to be honest. It’s an accurate report and they take the piss out of Trump daily. BBC can’t win sometimes

I said that she clearly has not gone into specifics but this article addresses the absence of policies in her campaign without making any effort to draw a comparison with Trump's campaign. My point is that this is not balanced reporting.
These emails must be targeted to seniors only, right? They're mad.

Apparently we are facing a red wave in November according to Republican polls and commentators. It could end up with Harris winning no states what so ever. And in further news from the delusional ....

I'd be a little worried about overconfidence with the Dems.

Clear and present danger, as I keep telling folk on social media, there's only one poll that counts, that one is happening in November.
Trump has pulled out of the pres debate once again, citing change of rules and the fact that Harris pulled out of the Fox debate (the one that was only ever a figment of Trump's imagination). The Man child running away from the scary black lady once again, as he knows he will get ripped a new one.

I appreciate Boris is opportunistic, but this takes the piss.
Donald Trump's presidential campaign has received an official endorsement from Tulsi Gabbard - a former congresswoman who ran to be the Democratic candidate for the presidency in 2020, before distancing herself from the party.
There's the common refrain that people tend to get more right-wing as they get older, but how you can go from supporting Bernie Sanders to endorsing Donald Trump is beyond me.

I left a comment there asking Americans when is the right time for working class Americans come together and form a third party to actually make waves to do things that better their lives.
I'm not fully up on Canadian political history, but I am fairly certain our third party started with and rallied rural farmers/labour groups on the Prairies and ended up giving birth to universal healthcare. They swung left, of course, because it was the 1930s but maybe there's an opportunity to unite a wider spectrum of people under the common goal of making life more fair and re-establishing the American dream without it having to be polar?
A new one just started here in Canada, with a mix of people from the various parties claiming to be "neither left, nor right, but looking forward". It'll be interesting to see if they can bring in people that don't trust the Cons, who are basically using Trump's playbook, and those fed up with Trudeau's Libs.

In a two party system, they'll be used to siphon votes off the opposition.

I see the mad fucker is again claiming that he won the club championship at Palm Beach, beating 22 scratch golfers. This despite the fact that his recent appearance on Bryson Dechambeau's channel showed he is decent for his age but likely no better than a 15 handicap.

He's infamous for employing the foot "wedge", to improve his lie, but no-one is ever prepared to just be up front about his blatant cheating, in the same way, on the other side, that far too many club players don't call out players who fudge their handicaps, & then clean up in the Clubs trophy competitions.
Cheats are cunts wherever they exist, & richer they are, the more they deserve to be squashed.

You should read Commander in Cheat. Fascinating look into Trump’s compulsive need to fabricate and cheat at golf, in particular, but everything else as well. Not always in a negative sense, but it gives the impression that Trump just cannot handle anything turning out negatively and is blind to the moral corners he cuts to deal with that. Frightening as well, given how politically powerful he has become.
Not sure what this is showing? (probably as I'm not sure who that is with Clinton)

Yup. If The republicans had anyone even half-popular as Trump, they would have binned him. But he's still their best chance, so he can do whatever he wants and they'll back him.
Fucks knows how they all sleep at night.
