He's a professional commentator on politics. Of course he's stupid.

This was also @Incandenza ’s response when he wasn’t nominated for 2023 POTY.

Couldn't you have written in Williamson, Kamala?

 

[King Kamala]

I would have had to switch my registration back to Democrat. I'm independent right now and I don't feel like becoming a Democrat again to write someone unless it's someone I really really like.

I really want to find out how Dean Phillips went from Biden dork cheerleader to hating him with the fire of a thousand suns (enough to get baited by satire accounts) for really no reason.

Yeah, he is too old but he was too old when Dean Phillips was annoying everyone by taking too many selfies on Air Force One.

 

[King Kamala]

Worse than you can imagine: Haley loses to 'none of these candidates' in Nevada

The defeat, while symbolic, was a major embarrassment for the former South Carolina governor.

Ouch.

Marianne Williamson suspends presidential campaign

Her announcement came one day after she was soundly defeated by President Biden in the Nevada Democratic primary.

Angrily spikes crystals on the ground.

Ok if he continues to shit on the least funny account on Twitter I will consider voting for him.

He's senile.

 

[Lazgistics Supervisor]

Blah blah "institute term and age limits for federal officials" blah blah

He's senile.

People are in denial. It’s gotta be exposed a lot worse when the campaign starts.

Against all odds, Donald Trump is back on top. The Donald is the new favorite on the US presidential elections board at -110, with Joe Biden right behind him at +275.

Vegas knows.

 

[AA484]

Vegas knows.

Trump's been the favorite for a while from the books I've seen. Clinton was also the favorite in 2016, but I still think Vegas odds are more accurate than polls because money is on the line.

 

[Mickey Massuco]

You get it bro

 

[AA484]

You get it bro

I don't have any studies to back this up, but I'd also add a couple of three things:

• GOP voting base gamble more than the Democrat voting base
• Those betting on Trump will probably do so if his odds are +150 or -150. Maybe Vegas thinks they can milk more out of bettors with juice -- regardless of how they really feel about Trump's chances?

Election Odds: Is Political Betting More Accurate Than Polling?

While Joe Biden continues to lead most presidential polls with less than a week to go, betting odds are giving underdog incumbent President Donald Trump a reasonable chance at pulling the upset.

www.forbes.com

The Romney whale who bet 4-7 million on him made me laugh. It feels like the data is pretty inconclusive on this being any more accurate. If anything it feels like just another way for rich people to manipulate public perception.


I also think it's way to soon to be putting money on an election that's most of a year away, when both candidates look and sound like they could drop dead at a stiff breeze.

 

[muzzington]

...both candidates look and sound like they could drop dead at a stiff breeze.

Could I bet on that?

 

[King Kamala]

I am definitely one of those “Gavin Newsome/Kamala Harris is going to replace Joe” types but fact of the matter, we are still almost nine months away from the election and a lot could happen.

LBJ didn’t drop out until March 31st of 1968. I still think health issues or some sort of current event that fucks him in the polls even more could cause Biden to bow out.

Trump Says He Might 'Encourage' Russia To Attack NATO Allies

"You gotta pay your bills," said the former president notorious for not paying his own bills.

www.huffpost.com

"I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want"

Trump bizarrely claims 'they' will change the name of the state of Pennsylvania if he loses it

Donald Trump seemed to allude to sites honoring historical figures that had been renamed. But there have been no moves to change Pennsylvania's name.

www.businessinsider.com

This stuff is like every single day.

 

[King Kamala]

Yeah. That’s why I think the Biden is senile aspect is a little overblown. It’s not like Trump is still working with a full deck of cards mentally (if he ever was!)

The Santos stench: 6 takeaways from the New York special election

Republicans ran an untested candidate against a seasoned Democratic veteran. It turns out that was a mistake.

www.politico.com

Well, maybe promising to work with the other party isn’t a losing campaign strategy.

I’d like to think Trump killing the bipartisan immigration bill (and soon, the foreign aid bill) will hurt him with swing voters but who knows?

Kyrsten Sinema Bows Out of Arizona Senate Race

The independent incumbent’s decision clears the field for a two-person race, most likely between Representative Ruben Gallego and Kari Lake.

I'm gonna miss the brunch specials at the Senate cafeteria

It's exciting that John Fetterman is taking the reigns of "cynical opportunist who quickly works at alienating the people that voted for them" from her, though. But he isn't my type.

 

[909]

I voted for Katie Porter just a few minutes ago. I fucking hate Adam Schiff so that’s a non starter for me.

 

[King Kamala]

I just found out Maine switched to a semi-open primary (you can’t switch parties but independents like myself can vote Republican or Democrat) this year but there’s really no one I wanted to vote for (especially since Marianne Williamson didn’t qualify for the ballot) so I couldn’t find the motivation to make it to the polls today.

I am not dark Biden pilled enough to want to support him in a primary but I don’t feel the need to vote him against him either. If I thought Nikki Haley had a shot at winning Maine, I might consider a protest vote but I’d honestly feel way worse voting for her than I would Marianne Williamson.

 

[Incandenza]

I switched from NPA to DEM for the 2020 primary so I could vote for Bernie. Now Bernie spouts mealy-mouthed horseshit about Israel-Palestine and I haven't bothered to switch back to NPA.

I don't know that I have a point here.

 

[King Kamala]

Other than you’re going to replace me as the board’s Jill Stein booster?

I very specifically and angrily switched my registration back to independent after they piled on BernDawg in 2020. But we were also in the middle of the pandemic so I had a lot of spare time and the ability to do these things without leaving the house so that helped.

 

[Incandenza]

Sheer laziness on my part re: not switching back. I live in a closed-primary state so being NPA limited me primary-wise.
