[BET] Trump or not Trump 2020, eddie13 vs suchmoon

[eddie13]

gotta support the candidate of your party right?...no matter what retarded bullshit he preaches.  

Not really.. I just see it as the best defense against a communist takeover of the United States.. He is far from as conservative as I would like, very centrist IMO, but he is about the best/only hope for the future of freedom compared to what he is up against..

And yes, I actually like that Trump has a somewhat foul non-PC mouth, because that is also exactly what we need.. The last thing we need is to be like many other western nations where you will be thrown in jail for saying such things as "Trans men are not women" and "Communists are worse and killed more of their own people than Hitler"..
Even though he is by far not the strongest on the 2A, he is sure better than the Democommunists..

If freedom in America falls, the rest of the world will tumble even further I believe..

I have taken a look at Jo Jorgensen, but there she is pandering to the Marxist BLM..

Spineless, white, crusty old balding idiots,  the lot of them.

The only thing you have correct here is "white" and I am unashamed..
Their is a reason for the great attack on whites right now and the unprecedented systemic anti-white racism you see today.. Because we whites are the ones they fear, we are their last and main obstacle, we are powerful and the last thing standing in their way of a communist takeover and global domination..
We are undoubtedly the most liberty loving peoples and obviously the best at war.. We are the target..


Other than some financial gain from bets, if you really want Biden to win, I have no idea wtf you are doing anywhere near Bitcoin..
IDK.. Maybe you are in it for the money, or some other unknown reason, but I don't understand how you can be a true Bitcoin believer without believing in the cause of crypto-anarchism/annarcocapitalism, which is completely the opposite direction of the BLM Marxism, progressiveness, and straight up communist agenda that a Biden win would only make progress for..  

It's all about fighting against communism and authoritarianism to me with Trump being just about the only option to slow it as much as possible..

You could make decent points that Trump is a bit authoritarian and not extremely constitutionalist, but he is/has been trying to stop the onslaught of the mass importation of leftist voter pets that could give a fuck less about freedom, liberty, and the constitution, as long as they selfishly get what they want.. A free ride in America..
(IMO constitutionalism is pretty decent Libertarianism, about the best we can hope for in the USA)

I'm pretty blackpilled these days and am feeling that the west is inevitably over at this point.. The good times that we have been living in for the last few generations have created far too many weak men.. Overly sympathetic men that have lost the understanding of why limits on government power are so important..
I think we will be coming into hard times again very soon.. Very soon.. Get out of and far away from the cities while you still can..

I am atleast further Libertarian than US conservatism as it is now, but conserving what constitutionalism possible is far and away better than letting it slip further and further Marxist..

Remember that Mussolini and Hitler were both Marxists-Lennonists cut from the same cloth as Russian and Chinese Communists who all killed millions upon millions of their own people.. (you will never convince me Fascism is not also Leftism, Marxism, brothers of Communism, who all love and require death camps)
Coming to a town near you again soon..



Oh, and BTW... Absolutely Fuck BLM...
Anyone that panders to that shit is either the enemy or brainwashed ignorant..
Good job giving blacks and minorities and excuse not to succeed... Blame it all on the white man..
America wouldn't have ever happened without the white man.. The white man created this land of opportunity (used to be)..

I have worked with plenty of blacks and minorities making 100k-150k a year, non-college educated even.. They absolutely CAN do it and their is no systemic racism holding them back.. If anything they have a systemic advantage..
The only thing holding them back is the belief instilled in them that they can't do it because of big bad whitey.. Exactly what they want them to think so they will remain voter pets and disregard the constitution.. Keep them poor and needy, dependent on the government.. It's all about furthering the Marxist based agenda of ultimate power..

BLM wants Communism, they say so on their website without as many words. They are being enabled by Democrat mayors and governors, with the intention of making Trump look bad. If Trump is off the ticket, BLM would still work towards Communism, however Democrat mayors and governors would stop putting up with the riots in most of the country, and places like Portland would come under immense political pressure to put a stop to the lawlessness.

No, they wouldn't. I am sure you have heard of Fabianism. This is exactly the model under way currently. You don't get on your knees one day then suddenly grow a spine the next. Their pants are down and their ass cheeks spread wide. The democrats might pay lip service to moderation, but they are ready to take the little red dick in their asses. Not only does this serve their goals, it serves the goals of a lot of their paymasters in Beijing. This isn't going to stop, this is going to continue to escalate regardless of who is in office unless there is some sort of actual, as opposed to manufactured populist uprising.

[squatz1]

Yeah.. It's not looking great for Trump right now, depending on how much you believe the polls and such..

Oh well..
If the land of the free is coming to an end I'll just have to change my game plan..

Trump wasn't bucking the experts or anything like that, he was just following what people in his administration were saying to do.

We did have false info from the chinese controlled WHO at the time too remember.. "no human to human infections"

Their was a lot of heat about the travel restrictions being "racist".. I don't care who says what.. I remember that shit..

Is Trump also supposed to be an infectious disease expert? Or listen to the ones that are that he hired?

I don't see how Trump fumbled on the china virus, but whatever..
It started with lies from china and the WHO and now the statistics on it are currently inflated for many reasons..

True on China lying, no one is going to argue about that. Not sure on if we're able to blame the WHO though, their task is to distibute information from health experts of the many different countries in the world. They don't really have the resources to go into a country and independently verify all of the information that is out there.

If we want them to do that, we should set them up with the task of that. Who knows how certain countries are going to react about that though (China, Russia, etc)

Trump isn't expected to be an infectious disease expert, though it's expected for the President to listen to his advisors. Plus -- Not supposed to promote things (medical) that dont work.

I'm not convinced that things would've played out much differently if China had been completely transparent (something nobody would ever expect them to do).

The whole world knew that in Jan China locked everyone down, started frantically building hospitals and shooting stray dogs.  

In Feb and March we watched it spread through Europe, not too concerned.

And then April comes and you know the rest.

Is there really anything China could've told us in Dec/Jan  that would've had a bigger impact than watching a bunch of other countries go through it in real time over a 3 month period?

They would've had to of been very confident that it would hit us a few months later.  AND We would've had to convince us to self inflict economic damage.  So many things would need to go right.

If they got the time frame wrong, for example, and told us it was coming in Feb, after a couple weeks everyone would just be screaming that China was just playing the 'why are you hitting yourself' game with America.

I think the problem on China lying is that we could've shut down travel with China (either coming directly from China, or who were there recently) much earlier then it was done. Now while this isn't a foolproof plan, and a large amount of people still end up infected -- but it does limit how bad the initial outbreak is.

Then again: Who knows if we are to take the warning signs from China even if they're provided at face value. I'm just saying that if we knew about how horrible the death and destruction was and how infectious this disease was, we probably would've been able to do something quicker. Or at least had that opportunity.

Not only did Chinas lies dupe policy makers, it stopped the medical health experts from being able to make a determination on what to do next.

The deck was stacked against us because of Chinas lies.

@eddie13, I'm merited your post not because I agree with it, I don't, (Albeit I've heard that meriting for merely agreeing with a a post is not good reason for meriting, though let's be real, everyone does that)
but because it's a reasonable, polite, rebuttal post that doesn't resort to childish ad hominem attacks, arrogance and clown car nonsense, like some folks with anger management issues do around here.
Won't mention any names.....

.... I have no idea wtf you are doing anywhere near Bitcoin..
IDK.. Maybe you are in it for the money, or some other unknown reason, but I don't understand how you can be a true Bitcoin believer without believing in the cause of ......<snip> big words

Dude, you've never heard of someone who is into bitcoin purely for the monetary gain that doesnt follow or give a shit about cryptoanarchism/annarcocapitalismLibertarianismcommunismauthoritarianism??!  (or wtf those words are.) ......Oh wait, actually I do like mining and I also use it to tip my neighbor (he's the only dude I know irl with a bitcoin wallet) for helping me out.
Well here ya go... my name is sirazimuth. You've probably seen me around these boards.
Maybe someday we can meet have a beer and talk about gardening, music, machining or something equally benign and exciting....

[eddie13]

Cool man..

Dude, you've never heard of someone who is into bitcoin purely for the monetary gain that doesnt follow or give a shit about cryptoanarchism/annarcocapitalismLibertarianismcommunismauthoritarianism??!

Yeah I guess..
I got sucked into Bitcoin for it's potential to take the power to print money away from governments..
I quite dislike authority.. We have had our problems with eachother..

Maybe someday we can meet have a beer and talk about gardening, music, machining or something equally benign and exciting....

By dad was a machinist for 30 something years in the time before CNC.. Retired..

[Fallenkeith75]

Crypto investments in 2020, yes.

As an American, but voting for Trump in 2020, nope...probably won't vote for him.

[squatz1]

Expecting 2020 to get pretty crazy, probably going to be real interesting once we see the Trump and Biden go ahead and debate one another. That shit is going to get pretty interesting.

We could see so many possibilities given the fact that Biden and Trump are both pretty old (77, and 74 respectively) One of them could get sick and die, or get sick and be ill during this time.

Coronavirus could either go poof or go into massive overdrive.

Economy could begin to recover or worsen based on the Coronavirus.

This is going to be a WILD 2020.

[suchmoon]

Coronavirus could either go poof or go into massive overdrive.

Quite predictably it's not going Trump's way at all now. The massive push for reopening is causing a massive spike of infections. He's now claiming that death count is low but it lags a few weeks behind the infection curve and is about to start going up so I don't get why he's trying to defy reality here. And now he started threatening schools if they don't reopen, which is tone deaf to say the least. Aside from some antiwaxer nutjobs, parents generally don't want their kids to get sick.

Yeah, you can tell he really isn't looking to his advisors and the medical experts (Fauci, CDC health experts, etc) just by the way he's been talking about the virus. I would assume (and hope) that an advisor has told him that people don't begin to die from the Coronavirus instantly, it takes 3-4 weeks or so.

If Donald Trump said something along the lines of "We're going to be taking this a week at a time, and if deaths start to go up across the country in 3 weeks we know that we need to change our course" Then we'd know that he is doing the right thing.

He's so entrenched in not wanting to understand how this works and everything going back to normal that he really is just looking like a fool right now.

[eddie13]

[squatz1]

It's funny cause Joe is actually the presidential candidate who has been wearing his mask religiously since this whole thing started, while Trump didn't. Not a big fan of Trump not wearing a mask, it was a good example to set to people.

I do obviously still agree that Joe Biden videos with the children are very weird. Like VERY VERY VERY VERY weird. Guy has no idea how to operate around children without looking very VERY weird and suspcious.

I have my doubts that most of America is going to want to vote for this type of extremism. These types of statements are going to make whoever is choosing Biden's VP to move away from Harris.

I continue to have my doubts that Trump will stay in the race. Heis doing especially poorly with his messaging, particularly regarding coronavirus. I am not sure if he was getting bad information, or what happened, but he should not have said that coronavirus was going to "just go away". His messaging regarding Faucci is only undermining his own credibility.

Republicans in general were caught flat footed in responding to the riots, and corresponding propaganda. There is an average of 3 police shootings per day, and it was just a matter of time before one was caught on video by a bystander who posted it to social media to go viral. I think Trump's biggest mistake of his presidency was not sending troops into MN to stop the riots before they spread throughout the country. This is basically what stopped similar riots from spreading in 2016 in NC, and in 2015 in MD, except republican governors moved quickly instead of federal troops.

I have received 11 fundraising emails from the Trump campaign over the past 24 hours, and close to a dozen text messages, all asking for campaign contributions. It is clear the Trump campaign is trying to increase contributions. They are well ahead in terms of cash in the bank, but have been lagging in terms of money coming in each month.

Biden has an eutheusiam problem. About 2/3 of his supporters want to vote against Trump as opposed to vote for him. The Democrat convention is also before the Republican convention, so Biden will have been nominated before the GOP candidate will have been nominated. This also means the Democrat convention will be full of speeches talking about "Orange man bad". I think if Trump is not ahead of Biden by the GOP convention, the GOP should nominate someone else, keeping their identity secret until the last minute, this will allow the GOP to catch the Democrats flat-footed in the propaganda war.

Keeping schools closed is much more harmful to kids than it is protecting them from the virus. Schools in Europe have reopened without flareups in schools, and many students were outright not participating in school activities when children were sent home in March. There have been studies that suggest students received "roughly 70% of learning gains in reading relative to a typical school year, and less than 50% in math" in the last school year.

In Los Angelos, the teachers union are demanding the Police be defunded, Medicare for all, higher taxes on the wealthy, a ban on new Charter schools (their competition) in order for their teachers to return to the classroom. This is all about the health and safety of the children, right?

The recent Twitter hack should benefit Trump and/or whoever the Republican candidate ends up being (and Republicans in general). The hack has damaged Twitter as a communications institution, and will have diminished its credibility. Twitter has been a tool to propigate left wing propaganda. The latest hack was very obvious to most, but it could happen again in a more subtle way that may cause more damage to Twitter. It appears Twitter put too much effort into making sure their codebase was "antiracist" and not enough effort into making sure it was secure.

I'm not so sure I much like public schools at all.. Liberal indoctrination camps..
Yeah, lets send our kids off to be molded by the government for 13+ years.. Every one of those public school teachers are government employees and therefore in favor of more taxes, more government, more pay, etc.. And their greedy always wanting raises all the time even though they don't even work all year, or long hours, don't get dirty, isn't dangerous, and make pretty good money already with benefits and all.. Easy job IMO.. Half of em aren't even that intelligent..

I have been kindof hoping that the schools closing would open up more competition for private schools.. Public schools waste half the kids time packing them full of garbage anyway, on top of the toxic environment teaching kids it's ok and normal to be transgender and shit.. Teaching them white guilt these days.. Fucking tiktok and slut acceptance culture.. Since when is slut shaming a bad thing exactly? Being outwardly/outspokenly/proudly gay is ok for kids that are too young for sex period? Neh..
It is NOT ok in my opinion to base your entire self image around the way you prefer to have sex, especially for kids.. (or think you prefer)

I'm recently single, but my ex had a daughter I raised for about 8 years and I couldn't believe some of the crap she would come home and talk about was taught/said/happened at school.. It made me furious at times, even in a small town in the country.. I can't imagine what city school must be like..

When I (hopefully eventually) have my own some day, no way I'm feeding them through that sheep shearing mill they call public "education" turning them into degenerates.. The catty teenage culture these days making them overly self conscious and quite often self-loathing because of it.. No wonder child suicide rates are up.. (supposedly)

Grrrr..

I continue to have my doubts that Trump will stay in the race. Heis doing especially poorly with his messaging, particularly regarding coronavirus.

If Trump loses I have more pressing concerns to worry about than 0.12BTC.. Heck, even if he wins..

The whole world is going crazy..

And of course this is untrue

There's another problem.. Not being able to trust anything from anyone anymore ever..

There you have one place calling it fake news while I can find more confirming it..
For all I know they scrubbed the video and blamed it on some troll site.. Or it's "russian bots" making fake news..
Think I trust snopes or whatever fact-check lefty spin sites? lol nope

WTF am I supposed to do? Hire my own private investigator to fact check everything from every last media outlet?

I guess I'll take it down because it might be fake, but I wouldn't put it past em for one second, to say something like that, or to do everything they can to cover it up..

Supposedly a deadly pandemic going around but I can't even decide if it's completely fake, way worse than they say, or somewhere in the middle.. From china, from bats, from the us military, who tf knows..
Can't trust anything..

It's summer.. I don't have time to keep up with all this craziness anymore.. I've been jumping off waterfalls, fishing, swimming, gardening, boating, building, spinning wrenches, and burning rubber.. I'm busy..

Riots and racists and viruses and elections and crazy economy etc etc etc

Nobody is getting sick and nothing unusual around here other than businesses of large corps being a bit weird and an executive order about masks that about 1 in 4 stores want to kinda enforce and the local sheriffs won't even enforce it..
County Sheriff says, "Have a problem? Call OSHA or the attorney general.. Not us unless people are causing trouble.."  

Fake world is fake..
My world is fine..

Summer has been a blast so far actually..

It's a big country. There are places where it's safe to open schools and there are places where it isn't. The federal government threatening schools is bullshit. Our district has 3 different plans (full capacity, half capacity alternating days, online only) and I have a lot more faith that they'll pick the most suitable option than the federal nutjobs deciding what's good for all schools while trying to appease their base in an election year.

Weird, I thought when people objected to federal government overreach via the local school systems, that made them Republicans unwilling to fund education. At least I remember some one saying that... I forget who. How could you be against funding education!?

I'm sorry your school failed to teach you English. Please try again with more focus on what you actually want to say and less drama, maybe that'll make it more comprehensible.
