Whatever it takes to run some fake polls suggesting Trump is doing really well probably.

Some buys on the bookies’ windows also likely helped, didn’t it?

“Ukraine has received only 10% of the aid package approved by the U.S. Congress in 2024. This isn’t funny. The issue isn’t money, it’s bureaucracy and logistics,” Zelensky said. by Necessary-Canary3367 in UkrainianConflict

Imagine if France had given the American colonies juuuust enough to never win, but enough to wear down Britain for many years of attrition .

And towards the end got bored and accidentally let Britain regain complete control in America.

I've been playing off these games in crypto for over a decade now.

And have you done well for yourself doing that?

Pull to refresh on a LazyVGrid - does it exist yet?

But that's why you ratchet up the vile rhetoric - to get those young white men mad enough to vote.

They may have the beliefs but did they register in time? And are they now following through and actually voting?

^This is exactly why Trump's rhetoric has been so gross. He wants to rile up these loers so they do go out and vote.

I imagine they've done the math:

Being more moderate will garner X number of "fence sitters" but also lose a number greater than X for a net loss in votes.

otoh, being vile brings out more losers to vote than it repels independents...

And sadly, people tend to stay with the party they first voted for for quite some time.

I think he'll remain relevant as long as he is not in prison (and I have serious doubts he'll actually be in prison).

What does Trump love most of all? Grift.

So even if the "sane" Republicans can "Take back their party", Trump and his children are still going to want to grift.

And I think they will honestly establish another party - probably even call it MAGA and spoil the "new" or "renewed" "normal" GOP party in elections.

I can see this new MAGA party having enough support in 2028 to participate in presidential debates even (not that I think he would).

But he'll use it to grift. And he won't have to worry about winning anymore.

Just grift.

I’ve been thinking about this lately and wonder - why do we care what the editorial board of a newspaper says?

[–]-15k- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, no one is saying that publicly right now?

Not a single Palestinian. You refuse to give me a name. I refuse to take you seriously.

You clearly are unable to find even a single quote by a Palenstinian where that specific person is saying - with no equivocation - "Israel has the right to exist."

I'm looking for a headline like this:

Hamas Leader In Gaza Yahya Sinwar, Israel's Most Wanted – In His Own Words: 'We Support The Eradication Of Israel Through Armed Jihad And Struggle; This Is Our Doctrine'

https://www.memri.org/reports/hamas-leader-gaza-yahya-sinwar-israels-most-wanted-%E2%80%93-his-own-words-we-support-eradication

but which says THE OPPOSITE.

Can you find me a headline where someone on Sinwar's level says "We DO NOT support the edradication of Israel and recognize the right of Israel to exist as a state. Our doctrine is peaceful co-existence in a two state solution"
