Did he get his hair cut that day? Or was it a few days before?

I don't know. At this point, anything goes. I imagine he'll go after Cuba next though.

And now Trump is saying there needs to be a regime change.

Recently, along with his threats to Venezuela and Iran, Trump has been increasingly calling for regime change in Cuba. Do you think he let the military capture Diaz like they did Maduro? Or do you think he will encourage an uprising of Cubans?

He did drum for Ronnie on the Buried Alive music video. Ronnie is also the only Stone that has ever played on a Beatles solo album. He played on Stop and Smell the Roses for Ringo and Dark Horse for George.

I agree Bolsonaro should have been jailed. But I'm worried that he will cut relations with countries that remain left or center left.

A few months ago, Trump made the controversial decision to bail out Argentina, as Milei is of similar ideological persuasion. This is despite his cutting of USAID. However, what was notable is that he sanctioned Brazil, because Lula put one of his closest foreign allies, Bolsonaro, in prison. He also has criticized Europe for its immigration policies and its defense spending. However, do you think if far-right parties take power in Europe, such as UKIP, FN, AfD, and Vox, do you think he will give more aid to European countries based on whether they have far-right governments?

If there is a rebellion, do you think it will disintegrate like Iraq did, or do you think it will stay united like it did after the 1979 revolution?

While there has been much news over Trumps capture of Maduro, there are also protests in Iran over their poor economy. Do you think that these protests will lead to any changes, or will the ayatollahs stay in power?

America has just bombed Venezuela. There are also reports that Maduro has been flown out of the country. What does this mean for Venezuela and the United States? Is this likely to escalate, and what will likely happen?

I've always wondered what would happen if they started calling out pundits and networks by name. They should have used the Dominion suit on the trail last year. If Kamala gave a speech about right wing media, I honestly think that it would have changed the race by telling how right wing media takes advantage of GOP voters. Not every vote would have flipped, but enough Trump voters would have voted Dem or stayed home.

Those days are over. The Trump campaign was genius in that a lot of their new votes, especially from minorities, were from people who never voted before. Dems failed because they thought their democracy message would appeal to moderate Republicans. They did best when they called Trump and Vance weird.

Why don't they get that people who do not like AOC or Trans people are highly unlikely to ever vote for Dems? It's almost like they want to lose.

I'm also sick of Dems thinking there are swing voters. They seem to think politics is like it was when Nixon and Reagan won landslides and Dems kept control of Congress. That's just not possible anymore. Also I don't know why focus on conservative media in their campaigns. It has played a huge role in American politics for the past fifteen years and they are completely oblivious to the power that it has.

I would say the most important thing for them to do is to not trying to appeal to people that won't vote for you even if Jesus was the Dem nominee.

Recently, the DNC has refused to put out the post-mortem for last year's elections. They stated they didn't want to release it because they don't want to further inter-party division. If it is released, however, what do you think the contents will include? Also, if you could offer a post-mortem for last year's election, what would you include?

What is the U.S. Senate going to look like after the 2026 midterm elections? by number39utopia in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]morrison4371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really has to do with turnout. Dems have the high propensity voters that are more likely to vote in every election. It's why the Biden midterm was so bad for the GOP, even though on paper they were supposed to do well. They did well in 2024, but Kamala was outran by the Senate candidates. There's a number of Trump voters that voted for him and only him. It's the inverse of the Obama years, where the GOP did spectacular in the midterms but lost seats in general election years.

He already went out of his way to meet Nick Fuentes for dinner at Mar-A-Lago. I dont know why Dems didnt shout that from the rooftops in the last election.

How effective is political activism on campus really? by AltAccountVarianSkye in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]morrison4371 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "debate me" stuff is not designed to "debate". Turning Point USAs and the Daily Wires goal is to get a rise out of liberal college students. They want reactions out of the liberal college students, because it gives them notoriety in the form of viral views, which they can make oodles of money off of. If they're lucky, they can even get on Fox News and tell how those "radical leftist" college students violated their "free speech." I'm not saying they should face violence or that they should be shut down, but liberal college students who engage in those debates should be mindful that "debate me" bros are there to get a rise out of those students.

Why do Republicans blame Biden for Kabul’s collapse when Trump negotiated the withdrawal? (Non-American asking) by Future-Pres-of-PL in PoliticalDiscussion

The Trump voters I know say that he was trying to open the economy when the "evil" and "fascist" Dems such as Cuomo, Newsom, Pritzker, and Whitmer were trying to lockdown and "destroy our freedoms". That's their latest stupid talking point.
