Trump talk only- no Eagles talk allowed (Steelers talk is OK though)

I’m not going to believe Trump loses Iowa because of one poll.  But let’s be clear: if it’s even close in Iowa that means great things for Harris in Wisconsin and Michigan.

She’s on crack.  Iowa won’t be close. Trump by at least 7.  Just like some righties are jagging off to Va being close…it won’t be.

I disagree with a lot of her ideas now, but at my core I still agree with her main principle: that capitalism is a moral good. I still very much believe that. My beliefs about free trade and immigration are rooted in this principle. 
 

Donald Trump is not a capitalist; if you know your Ayn Rand, he is very much like a Jim Taggert or Orren Boyle type. Kamala Harris, though favoring government intervention at times, is actually far more of a free market type than Trump is. I know that this must seem counterintuitive to you, nonetheless I’m absolutely convinced of it. 

It probably won't surprise you that I completely disagree with your characterization of Trump as Taggert, the primary villain of Atlas Shrugged who basically acted to hurt people for his own pleasure.  

I actually think Trump is most like Howard Roark from The Fountainhead; a guy who does what he wants, lots of people try to take him down, but he succeeds because his "fock you" attitude draws people to him.

Can you honestly imagine Kamala sitting in a foreign negotiation with people like Netanyahu, Orban, Zelenskyy?  Irani mullahs, Putin, Xi Jinping?  She is a vacuous black hole of nothingness; without a teleprompter she has absolutely nothing.  32... 32... Thirty... two...  She'd be playing checkers against people playing 4D chess. :(

The answer to your question is yes I absolutely can. 

As to your first point: the key to Howard Roark, as with all of Rand’s heroes, is absolute integrity. Roark is NOT a “fock you” kind of guy: he’s indifferent to what people think about him. One of the most important lines in the book is when he tells Elsworth Toohey: “I don’t think about you.” 
In both terms of integrity and indifference to others, Donald Trump couldn’t be more opposite to Howard Roark.

There is absolutely nothing in Harris' history, particularly her recent history, to indicate that she can handle anything but a simple, short, scripted speech.  Have you heard she grew up middle class?  That's her answer to every question in the past week or two.

You don't see my point about the Trump/Roark comparison, which isn't surprising given the above.

You might be interested in a recent Honestly podcast where Ben Shapiro and Sam Harris debated the candidates.  Shapiro defended Trump, and Sam defended... not Trump.  Sam made virtually no affirmative defense of Kamala, because there is none.  :cheers:

"But Trump has been running for President for 3.5 years".  She's an idiot.

I prefer a scripted speech over the unscripted violentspeak ramblings of that orange, power-starved psychopath who fellates fake microphones.

I will comment on the election, eat crow if I must (I don’t think I will but you never know). After that I doubt I will post for months here, or very rarely. So you’re getting what you wanted.

You really think Iowa is going to flip for Kamala Harris?   Not Hillary or Biden, but her? Kamala isn’t flipping anything. Her goal is to maintain.  And she might. But wake up.  In the best case she wins by a whisper. She’s a really, really bad candidate that just ran a horrible campaign, one of the worst. But because of the opponent, the media and oligarchs she has a decent chance.

No, the story here isn’t that Iowa will flip. The poll is within the MOE, but if she’s eroded that much support- then it’s a car crash for Trump. 

Also, :lol: on her running one of the worst campaigns. Like double :lol:

Here's a thought.   Instead of making your idiotic posts telling everyone your posting plans.  Just post,  dont post. Whatever.  No one cares whether youre here or not.  Then you won't come off as a liar.

Youre a bigger narcissist than Trump.

Donald Trump's final pitch Saturday night before election Day;

If I don't win this thing I'm in trouble will you please go and vote

It's always been about him about staying out of jail that's the only reason he's doing this and he knows he's losing so he's begging.

There is no excitement in me about Trump being elected. 
 

That said, there is more than a bit of terror in me about four more years of Democratic Party rule. 
 

I would guess this is where many people are.

Some good guesses here. I voted for Reagan with my first vote in 1984- very proud of that. He is still my favorite President of my lifetime. I’ve been to the Reagan library twice. If you come this way it’s worth seeing. Incredible man, incredible history. 

In 88 and 92 I voted libertarian. I was really into Ayn Rand back then.  In 2008 I was a huge fan of McCain but I couldn’t pull the trigger because of Palin. In 2012 I voted for Romney. I liked Obama, still do, but I preferred Romney’s economic ideas, still do. 

He should have been impeached for Iran-Contra.

It’s funny, Obama and Biden saw the rich get richer under their time in office yet liberals are still yapping about trickle down. Just because the didn’t say it doesn’t mean they didn’t do it. Obviously. Middle class gdp decreased under them.

Yeah, because she is so personable and funny.  :lol: 

I'm sure the MSDNC will paint her as the new Lucille Ball or Carol Burnett, no matter how poorly she performs.  :thumbsup: 

No one is going this. The bar set for this kind of appearance is to not be cringey, and she was not cringey. She was amusing but not hilarious, so expectations were exceeded.

Not sorry it didn't turn out like you wanted.

Donald blew a microphone to a half full auditorium. Kamala did SNL she won that day I think we can all agree.

The excessive cheering to her mere presence and the excessive laughing to her unfunniness was very cringey.  It was painfully obvious the crowd was 100 percent plants.  People can see through such tactics.

SNL holds a lottery in August to determine who gets tickets, so those present had tickets for months.

Why would it be so unusual for a presidential candidate's surprise appearance on SNL not get a big audience response?

Had it been Trump, though, I imagine he would have been booed.

A Trump appearance on that show would not have gone well for him. MAGA is blind to how much he is loathed outside the blind MAGA bubble.

No, the mockery is about a presidential candidate jerking off and fellating an imaginary microphone. MAGA obsesses over a romantic relationship Harris had decades ago and frames her as a slut, and here we have a grown-ass man behaving like this at a rally.

I also enjoyed him angrily smacking the microphone holder with the microphone. 

The fact that he acted this way and invested 4 minutes of a public appearance in ranting about the microphone just underscores the dangers this unhinged maniac poses for this country and our democracy.
