Hahahaha. Of course he did.

Can we all finally agree that supportingJill Stein is being the 11th person at the table?

1: She’s an ex-prosecutor. She can handle whatever they throw at her.

2: It makes her look stronger than trump, who is refusing appearances that might even slightly challenge him.

3: Though Fox is a fascist propaganda network, it’s still the main network watched by older ‘moderates’ and is passively consumed by the non-political and apathetic, by nature of it being constantly on in pubs, hotel lobbies, hospitals, and scores of other public places. This will be seen by people not actively trying to watch it.

This is a smart move.

Here’s a blast from the past:

(Yes, it’s real. I’m not linking it because I don’t want to give Phony Stark the traffic.)

Thanks, @LodeMike!

I posted this just after the debate last month:

Calling it now:

Since there’s not enough time left for him to recover from this brutal ego bruise, I predict he’ll only do rallies from now on, or appearances on far-right media, because he’ll retreat to his snowglobe for reassurance for a while. He’ll avoid addressing Kamala directly, but he’ll ramp up his own network and rile up his mob. His team will struggle to rein him in, and some appearances might be cancelled.

I’m not a prophet – he’s just that predictable.

I did, yes. I was just commenting on the crowd’s reaction of singing a national hymn at them, and how that reminded me of revival meetings. Yes, he’s famously cheap.

Did they actually, medically faint, or did they do that Evangelical Revival ‘faint’, like the ‘spirit’ overwhelmed them? If 2 people medically fainted, it seems like something was wrong with the venue (too many bodies, not enough air con), but based on the crowd’s response (eta: singing God Bless America at them), it kinda feels like the latter.

Then again, he submitted a letter from ‘his doctor’ in 2016 that said he tested positive for everything, so it may be best to steer clear.

You may feel you have addressed my questions, but you haven’t, and your assertions haven’t held up well thus far.

I really recommend you step back and look at your views with a critical eye – forget anything I or anyone else has said, and really look at who you are without preconceptions or bias. That’s not very easy to do, but you seem the type who could do it.

I’m done for now. I’d be interested to talk with you after you’ve done this, cheers.

It’s actually an infrared light because I keep my room dark and my VR headset doesn’t like that. It works pretty well. :)

Look, it’s become obvious your sources are biased and you won’t consider anything I say, so this is a pointless conversation. I’m done wasting my time and energy sourcing my comments with real data and being met with unsourced right-wing propaganda or TikToks.

If you want to actually have your views matter in future elections I’d still strongly recommend you look into FairVote Action rather than getting angry at people online.
