:niggaa:......WTF you think Trump was offering. Yet they still voted for him.

The mental gymnastics you've been doing to shit on Biden for it not being a blowout is ridiculous.

It’s not mental gymnastics when the polls show my analysis is correct.

Trump is a lying fascist but he campaigned on tangibles like getting rid of NAFTA and wanting to pass more stimulus checks. The average voter could easily name more trump policies than Biden policies at the end of the day.

72% of people want government ran healthcare according to Fox News polls. Imagine the results if ANY Democratic nominee openly supported those policies during an economic depression where millions lost their private healthcare.


Even more, both blue and red states voted overwhelmingly to legalize marijuana on Tuesday. I could go on and on.

In elections the numbers don't lie. The trends are just that. Trends. The polls are just that. Polls.

But the numbers, the numbers my nigga...................

Yo, what is up with these trash ass niggas defending Biden. Get a clue. He was a terrible candidate. He isn't winning because he was a good candidate. He's winning because he's up against the Devil, and even against the Devil this shit has gone beyond the wire. Stop trying to convince us of shit as if we can't see the truth right before our eyes. So what he's wining the popular vote by a lot. Hillary did too and she was hated by people on the right on the left and didn't even bother campaigning in the middle of the country. The nerve of these niggas acting as if half the country didn't think Biden was senile like 5 months ago.

The data presented disagrees with you man.

You sound like how I sounded in 2015 when The Warriors beat us. I was saying Steph ain't all that good and him and Draymond are overrated. I was saying they got lucky because Kyrie and Kev got hurt. I was a hating ass nigga and I was talking my shit when we beat them in 2016.

But the reality is that they were always better than I was willing to give them credit for. I let my emotions as a Cavs fan skew my opinion. You're doing that right now with Joe Biden. There's no evidence to support that Joe Biden is a terrible candidate. That's just your emotions speaking but it be like that sometimes during election season.

Dems for sure gotta work on their messaging and try to rebrand/repackage some of their more perceived socialist policies




I suppose that's a fair point. I have my issues with the Democratic party as well. Mainly with the old guard who need to step aside for fresh faces and more progressives. That only happens with more engagement from us and the youth. Which is why I take such issue with your stance of disengagement from the political process.

The shit aint working how you want it to? Get these old out of touch muhfuckas out and get someone in there who shares the same views as you! Power in numbers and all that. Shit aint gonna magically change critiquing from the sidelines

this idea that we can subvert power in this country by playing their game is ahistorical and quite frankly, we dont have time to play the long game and hope fresh new voices/faces will fill seats and EVENTUALLY affirm our humanity.

america is a white supremacist war machine. thats what it is, thats what it always will be. corporatist overlords, whether dem or repub, Black or white, man or woman, will continue to fight tooth and nail in keeping these racist institutions and hegemonic sys afloat.


if we played yalls game, it would be the year 4022 before we even begin to see things like police being disbanded, prisons/jails being overhauled, and viable schools that promote the socioeconomic mobility of all children, in our hoods

luckily, for me, i have a huge imagination that exist outside of the ballot box, for that is what abolition is

this summer gave me a glimmer of hope and affirmed my stance, that when ppl rise up and demand for things to be done, the needle moves, theres a shift in the pendulum


fuck the presidency and these corrupt politicans. it is through the organization and mobilization of the masses that will bring change to this country

until then, ill laugh, critique, and shake my head from the sidelines

If Pelosi stays as Speaker imagine what Biden's first State of The Union speech is gonna look like?

He's gonna have Nancy Pelosi on one side and Kamala Harris on the other.

Now if it was up to me I would make Hakeem Jeffries The Speaker of The House.

Then you would have Kamala Harris on one side and Hakeem Jeffries on the other side. That shit would be powerful as fuck.

The White House

The House

A Black woman as Vice President

A candidate that got more votes than any other candidate in the history of our Presidential Elections


And people are trying to still spin this as a loss

Comical how much hate some people have

Thats because the democratic party is fractured like a mfer. And its only going to get worse.

Its similar to what happened in 08 to the Republicans with the Tea Party. They came out and were extra right wing and the Republican party almost split, but in the end, instead of splitting, they embraced the tea party and that shit made them even stronger, especially with Trump.

With the Dems, thats not happening. The far left and centrists are just too far from eachother, and what wins votes for democrats in NY loses votes for dems in PA.

The two sectors of the party are very bitter against each other and i dont see them consolidating anytime soon

I'm 32 years old. When I got out of the Marine Corps in 2016 I strongly considered running for a City Council seat in Cleveland. My wife got pregnant a month after I got out and she was just staring to get back into working from not working while I was in USMC so I didn't run. Since I've been out I've worked at our city's school district, a top 5 hospital in the world, and now I work for the city.

I do have aspirations of holding a seat in my local government. IF I win a local seat like City Council I would like to hold it for 4 years and then make a run for mayor of my city or a State Representative in Ohio.


If, and this is a big if but if I ever win a mayoral election or become a State Representative I will run for President someday. I know that sounds crazy and wild aspirational but I'm only 32 years old right now. In 20 years I'll be 52. That's not a bad age for a President. I think it's definitely a realistic possibility if I ever hold one of those lower level seats.

Bruh, everybody Red and Blue want progressive shit. It's just that a lot of the dummies on the Red side get so caught up in the bullshit they don't even realize they are cheating themselves.

Ok, let's look at what he's said:

He told Wallstreet execs that he wouldn't change things for them
His idea for dealing with police issues is to give them more money
He's against universal healthcare even though the majority of the country is for it
He wants to put republicans in his cabinet
He doesn't want to pack the court or do anything counter what Reps did with the Supreme Court
He's said that he's against legalization of weed

There's more. Pretty much everything I just listed is antithetical to what the democratic base and even Americans in general want, but those are his stances. His policies aren't popular. That's why they kept him in the basement because when questioned about his controversial stances, he does shit like this.



Trump has the lowest approval rating of any president in modern times, and ya'll are acting like Biden is the Golden Child because he might eek out a win. Come on.

even if biden ekes it out, how could your takeaway from this be anything other than "the democratic party is useless" ??? policies supported by the left are winning by double-digit margins in MULTIPLE STATES while centrist dems lost considerable ground

again, you dont put up centrist to counter a right wing populist.

after 200k+ ppl dead and a stalled stimulus package you would expect ppl to hold dems feet to the fire, they deadass r replaying their losing strategy of 2016 : fielding a compromised and unispiring centrist.

its apparent yall didnt learn shit then, and havent learned shit now

So, in a nutshell, only charismatic candidates will suffice going forward?

do what ya do Race..lol just know that you can work on your master plan AND cast a vote for someone with similar views as you. Your vision for the future wont immediate burst into fuckin flames the minute you pick a like-minded candidate to support to make things a bit better where possible.

There is a such thing as a short game and a long game. Short term goals... long term goals. we're capable of multitasking

Which reminds me.... @OhMars prolly still waiting for you to respond to that thread he made like a month ago ?
