Now we know how much it costs to assemble an army of bots and bootlickers, enough to net you a seat of power in government.

This time we'll have all the evidence in the world... plus a 900 page booklet of stuff they were planning to do.
Bracing for impact on Canadian elections.
Upon hearing the news, I felt despondent and a pit in my stomach... I went to do a bit of karaoke and my mood has recovered from that at least.
Clearly political con-artistry is effective. Ford, Smith, Moe, Poilievre and any wannabe dictators of Canada who may emerge in the future, are all taking down notes.
States that think the feds will actually be hands off are in for a rude awakening.
We need a lot of stickers that say "Trump 2024 - You Did This" put it on gas pumps, in front of stores, hospitals...
From what I gather, Trump has said basically everything in response to stuff, and people selectively hear or social media just filters through the message from him they want to hear.
Some of the stunts like swaying to music for 30 minutes and play-acting a McDonald's worker make him look a bit cute and silly, but Harris isn't held to even the same dimension of standards -- by media, by voters and even by her own supporters.
There are hundreds of things Trump has done that would have tanked any other person's campaign in the last 60 years. But his case is that he would do all of these things to somehow fix the country. He is selling fake snake oil solutions and people bought it hook line and sinker again.
Maybe not about elections, per se, but I think you forgot what happened between 2016 to 2020. Almost every day news headlines were like "Trump tweets dumb thing", "Trump announces dumb thing", "Trump does dumb thing". This election period was quieter on the scale of things compared to then, and we're headed right back for it.
I'm in shock... Good luck to you, American Democracy. It was nice knowing ya.
This time there's no saying you didn't know. This time there's no saying "well more voters wanted different". You get what you get, apparently enough people fall for "look over there" types of distractions in politics.
The clock to progress has been set back at least 10 years. I know digital-age low-information fascism is on its way to Canada and I am definitely not ready.
I get your point, but the folks at MSNBC have been consistently more critical of Trump than the other networks.
And you're not wrong that the USA is fucked for even entertaining the idea of Trump, but you'll be waiting a long time if you're sitting around hoping people become less dumb, selfish and would cut off their nose to spite their face. Try not to lose sleep over it, but at the same time if you were able to get even one person who was Trump supporting, undecided or uninterested to vote for Harris that is a positive thing.
I hope you are right because I am feeling your username rn, I have confidence in Harris' campaign but voters have to do their thing too.
Spoiler: voters did not do the thing.
The Ford brothers have had a massive vendetta against Toronto for the longest time... they try to screw the City over at every turn.
If you're in Ontario, please comment on it before Nov 20, 2024
Douggie ran on "governmental efficiencies", this is about as inefficient and counter-productive a method to reduce traffic as there can be.
Well speaking of that, Trump's not going to have to spend a dime, he will have all of America's money at his disposal.
