This guy is an idiot. He went off the rails about the latest Mario Brothers movie as he wasn't cast. They should have cast him as he was in a Mario Brothers movie in the 90s.

He often complains about needing diversity or like most in Hollywood are obsessed that actors should be what they are. He's not Italian.

He was saying the new movie would fail without him. It went on to make a billion dollars.


Biden's statements after Trump was shot. That they should stop the name calling etc hasn't lasted very long.
 
The way Americans have looked at politics has always interested me.

Celebrities feel the need to endorse a candidate. Their needs are different to ordinary citizens. They preach about environmental issues while flying in private jets while their supporters are struggling to house or fed they kids.

You even have celebrities going nuts and not talking to life long friends due to who they want to vote for.

Harris has an ad about how voting is the last thing women can do alone or without pressure from men. I am paraphrasing that. But the gist is they can vote without their husbands knowing. My wife and I talk briefly about politics or policies during the lead up to the election. It might not even get to the state of knowing who the other is voting for.

Even the whole being registered as a democrat or republican. The swing voters are the smart ones.
 
If Trump wins a major difference from last time is the people he will bring in to help him. JD Vance seems an intelligent guyy well over the issues as VP. Then you Have JFK Jr, Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek, Col Douglas McGregor.
I don't know much about some of those names.

JD Vance I saw his name when the Vice President candidates had their debate. At that point if you asked me who is seconding which candidate I wouldn't have been able to answer. I did watch JD Vance on Rogan and he seemed alright. He speaks well as he went 3 hours without umming and aahring after most answers.

When Trump was on he made Kennedy seem a bit nutty. They would keep him consigned to a specific area (health). I don't know much about Kennedy. However, a YouTuber I watch instead of Make America Great Again would say Make America Healthy Again. Trump mentioned that a bit on Rogan. He isn't the picture of health himself but still, it is something they need looking a their obesity rates.
 
Do you think the world is safer for your daughter with a person in charge of the biggest military machine that has said he will stop the wars and doesn't have a history of propping up countries with "free" arms. OR a person who is currently part of the system involved in supporting those wars and who will most likely continue to do so and it's more beholden to the companies that want them to continue?
Sorry calling bullshit. He's a grifting conman criminal authoritarian dictator. He's saying it in front of your very eyes and ears, his actions all point towards that.
 
I have a sneaky feeling the actual vote won’t be as tight as the polls currently are and that Harris is going to win. There are on the ground reports of extremely high voter turnout and I can’t see that being for Trump tbh.

Trump mouthing off about voting fraud over the weekend suggests he’s been told this

I hope so. It’s just the beginning for him to lose fairly by vote either way I reckon. I can’t see them accepting a loss
