Tough spot for the Dems. Likely need to tone down the rhetoric a bit (at least for a while) and be even more disciplined in campaigning.
2024 U.S. Elections | Trump wins
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date
It got missed as everyone was focused on the shooting but Biden looked completely out of it when he gave that statement last night. Looked in a worse state physically last night than he did at the debate
Quite predictable. There's more pressure for solidarity than rebellion after the shooting.
If there’s one thing sure to pivot undecideds back to the guy who can’t remember his own VPs name, it’s his opponent looking literally unkillable.
Good old rock, nothing beats that.

Good savvy move- even if the shooter had nothing to do with them, the protests and their image are very unpopular, and punching left is the least bad strategy Biden has. The only political thing you could say truthfully is about gun control, and nobody wants to hear that, it will be taken as a conspiracy to snatch guns. Proposing punitive laws against occupy-type protests could help too.
Vance will be the VP pick.
He should go one step ahead of Trump and deport all those Hamas supporters from the US, this will give him the 2nd term he wants.
While I think Vance is an awful pick nationwide, it might be enough to lock up Ohio for Trump and that is huge.
Yeah, good point.
Trump just has different political opinions to you and I.
he won by 10 last time, it's not a swing state, it's not even a target for biden!
i meant it sincerely! killing more palestinians is a bipartisan thing, disliking protestors is bipartisan, and the kind of swing voters biden needs to win having eroded his base, would love both of them.
Brown's senate seat could flip, i suppose, but it probably will anyway.
Youngkin would have been a slam dunk, i think, Virginia being close and all, according to the polls.
Would it help him much? Bringing back Gaza and the protests to the conversation when they have been firmly in the background for a while now doesn't seem like the best idea.
he has no good options. he is going back to the time-tested left-punching, which republicans love. the only other option would be gun control, which snowflake republicans would consider a personal attack, distorting blame, etc.
Only way the Dems win now is if they get a well liked figure like Michelle or Oprah Winfrey to run. Dems are complete shi*bags so the chances of my suggestion occurring is 0.00001%.
Within 24 hours she has wished the fascist president a speedy recovery
Of course he won't call just yet. He'll call to congratulate Trump on winning the election hours after Trump has stopped all funding and aid to Ukraine.
had a look at the 538 avg. there's a gap that starts opening up just before the debate, and expands after:
the point for me isn't that others necessarily would do better, but that i don't see how biden claws this back. he's not getting younger in october.

The strategy that she and Bernie are pursuing here is hilarious.
Not this again!
I agree, no chance in hell she runs but that's the dire times the Dems are now in that they might need to force someone who has no interest whatsoever in running to be their candidate to stand a chance of winning.
I totally get the humanity side of this. However, the issue with these bleeding heart tweets by various persons is that these Trump supporters, including the one killed in the crowd who is said to have been a staunch Trump
They have no chance of winning. Even with Michelle or Oprah. It's done.
People like Newsom, Whitmer aren't going to risk their political ambitions on fighting Trump in an election they cannot win.
They'll most likely stick with Biden, get a thumping and focus on 2028.
Why is that an issue?
And is an idiot (means well though). Also both sides incite hatred equally.
It’s very unclear at this point what a 2028 election even looks like. I can’t imagine these batshit republicans backing a batshit Trump with the batshit Supreme Court at their beck and call are going to leave it as a fair game.
I'm fairly certain I explained in the post. These people would have loved to have seen AOC hung up on a spike on Jan 6.
