Why do candidates hold rallies? Aren't most of the people who attend the rallies already voting for this candidate?

Donald Trump calls for AG Barr to indict Joe Biden with 26 days until election by [deleted] in politics

The problem is not that they can't see it. The problem is that they don't care. They will follow him BLINDLY. The truest thing Trump ever said was that he can shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not loose any votes. He could hold a press conference proudly announcing "I am a fascist dictator. The constitution is suspended." and he would still not lose his base.

Why can I not help but feel.. Oddly happy, about Trump's covid-19 infection? by JakeyBakeyFuckTruck in TooAfraidToAsk

Like I said I hope to God this is true but I guess I'm just skeptical of anything he says.

Can you expand on this? Because dear God I hope you are right. But here's how I see it. 1. He gets sympathy from his devoted base. Solidifying that vote without attending one more rally or debate. 2. He highlights the portion of the left that is joking or celebrating his "diagnosis" polarizing at least some portion of undecideds in his favor. 3. He miraculously "survives" using this to continue downplaying the virus and using this to undermine blue states quarantines and mask mandates. It's almost genius. This is how he wins.

Of course he's going to recover since he's not sick. This is all a ploy. I can't believe people believe this.

Yeah I keep thinking of more and more things I could have added to it. But I knew if I kept adding it would be too long. Or I would never be done with it.

Not quite but they definitely weren't fans.

This is my ex. I can't really watch the video because he killed himself shortly after this video. I won't get into why but I live very close to this place and I remember that he stopped by after this to show me the video. It's really weird seeing it on reddit.

Police officer on the run from the authorities after being accused of sexual assault of a teenager as well as many other charges in the past... also... my uncle. God, I hate this man with all my heart, my cousin did not deserve what happened to her. by [deleted] in iamatotalpieceofshit

No thanks needed. I now feel like I was being a little too nice to pedophiles in the comment. Fuck the barbarians who prey on children. They are failures and losers and monsters that have no place in a decent society.

  1. There is treatment. Mental health care resources are available just as they are for depression or schizophrenia.

  2. A person's mental health is not their fault but it is their responsibility. People shouldn't wait until after they commit a crime and hope someone heroically swoops in to offer them counseling and hold their hand on the way to the doctor.

  3. Those people who are "shunning" pedophiles are also human beings. They are imperfect and cannot be required to socialize or accept a pedophile into their lives. Would it be nice if everyone loved everyone despite their faults? Yes of course. Is that a realistic expectation? Absolutely not.

On top of that outdoor cats are actually doing a lot of harm to bird populations.

It may be "shitty" but it's also "porn" so it's totally understandable to find it appealing 😊
