They don't seem to be getting destroyed, though...

I think they chose to focus more on the human warmth and positive vibes, and, dare I say, normalcy, to contrast with Trump's themes of hate and inhumanity that his campaign even seems to be ratcheting up in these final days.

He smirked at the compliment. “What’s discipline got to do with winning?”

That right there tells me all I ever want to know about Trump and how he sees competition.

Not an American, so I do not feel called out, nor do I care about downvotes from idiots who think Lemmy threads are here to be won or lost by getting or giving out good and bad points. :)

EDIT: By "idiots", I didn't necessarily mean you. Only after posting this comment I realized that it could be understood that way. Sorry.

Thanks, now that makes things clearer - on Wikipedia, I noticed this "if resident of a US state" exception for voting, but I automatically dismissed it as unimportant, thinking "eh, that has to be a very small fraction of Puerto Ricans".

Thanks everyone for the informative responses - as a non-US person, I wasn't aware of the intricacies of Puerto Rico's unusual voting situation. 👍

Wait, I thought Puerto Rico residents cannot vote in the presidential elections. Even Wikipedia seems to think so.

That's an odd way to misspell "young incels"...

Could we actually get both of those rich assholes into an arena and let them fight it out?

Even NY Times is starting to see the writing on the wall, and is starting to hedge.

So now he's conning gullible seniors also out of their military decorations? If it was anyone else, I'd say it's a new low, but for Trump, it's a new middle.
