I don't think you realize how heartless, sociopathic, and above all racist this line sounds.

So do I, let's leave it at that.

A point worth noting about these ‘focus group’, so the 6 who said they will vote for Harris from the same panel most likely aren’t ‘undecided’ either.
The Iraqi war was a disaster and never should have happened. I'm not proud of many things Schröder did, but refusing to join the alliance of the willing was one of his best decisions.
On the other hand the Saddam Hussein regime wasn't known for their humanitarian records either. I'm no expert in Middle Eastern history, so I can't say which one caused more deaths and suffering as well as if the Iraqis today have a better life than under Saddam.
But @SirAF is right this thread is about US politics and the upcoming election and we getting off topic.
Six in 10 Americans, 61%, say they now have a favorable view of the 43rd President of the United States in the latest CNN poll conducted by SSRS, nearly double the 33% who gave him a favorable mark when he left the White House in January 2009. [...] Most of Bush’s climb back to popularity came from Democrats and independents. His favorability mark among Democrats has soared from only 11% in February 2009 to a majority 54% now.
George W. Bush’s favorable rating has pulled a complete 180

Just as we agreed to get the thread back on course…
I also said it is natural to look more favorable upon Bush 43 when the extreme version of the GOP/Trump is the alternative he is being compared to. Mitt Romney’s politics is no picnick either for those of us who are not conservative, but he’s looking pretty damn good in 2024.

Becoming misty eyed over a war criminal who should have his day in The Hague just because Donald Trump is offensive to the senses is still objectively a bad thing.
Trump is scum, W is scum, but only one scum spent $8 trillion dollars bombing brown people, so it’s pretty wild to say you ‘100%’ prefer said person to the one who’s only interested in golfing, wolfing down fast food and lining his pocket.
Look this will be the last post I make on this topic in this thread.
The bolded part is very disingenuous, and is seriously downplaying the threat of Trump. To simply bagatellize Trump as merely «offensive» is a big mistake and very dangerous.
One of the reasons Trump was perceived as moderate in 2016 was because he claimed he'd leave Social Security untouched. Bush on the other hand was very clear about partially privatizing it, an effort which ultimately failed. So this is a good example of how 'the GOP has become more extreme' only gets you so far.

If Trump were actually campaigning on this, I reckon he'd be doing a lot better in the polls. what even is his platform?
It's so disappointing that musicians don't seem to be able to do anything about this.
Time and again, Trump uses music made by people who absolutely hate his guts to embellish his message.
All they can do it seems is a clarification after and a cease and desist.

"This is impossible to believe...."
That’s not what he really thinks though, have you take the time to listen to his long form interviews?
Cry
The feck is he on about?
Who made that rule? We're largely a bunch of non-Americans discussing American politics. US foreign policy is and always has been extremely significant in that context.
Probably stats about reported missing children. But the vast majority of those are found, and a whole lot of them are the same people running from home many times.
I saw him on CNN. He didn’t look like an undecided voter. That was clear.
I fecking hope so because a few RWNJs in my FB feed collectively see it as a coup that puts Trump/Vance into the White House.
RWNJ?
Right wing nut jobs
This dirtbag shows up every four years to spoil the party. Does she do anything, when there is not a presidential election going? Do they try to get seats in local or state government?

Dems should just throw this tweet capture side-by-side of his sudden support in an ad, perhaps "Still got that worm in his brain?" I dunno. Maybe not bringing his name to light is the right thing.
Anyone smart enough to realise that she personally could have been the reason Trump won the first time, and then decide her ego is so massive that she's willing to risk again to...achieve nothing whatsoever...I don't get the kind of person you need to be. So selfish.
Stein's goal is to help Trump win just as RFK Jr's was. She's a pro-Kremlin puppet.
I'm Kamala Harris and I approve this message.
I realize that I am a bit behind enemy lines now, but I didn't envision a convo at the sports bar with a family that Michelle Obama isn't a man. The 12ish y/o daughter is the most vocal one that she is a dude.
You have to wonder who exactly is making these policy decisions given that Biden is still president and Harris has barely announced any of her own policies in any degree of detail.
That's a pretty common trope among right wingers. As is "heels up Harris", a suggestion that Harris slept her way to the top of CA politics by shagging (among others) Willie Brown and Montel Williams.
No doubt, just didn't expect a prepubescent female to be the most strident articulator that she is a he.
