They've been drinking the right-wing bullshit for decades. All the diahrea that flows out of Tucker Carlson's mouth (which itself is just regurgitated Rush Limbaugh shit) flows out of the TV and Radio and directly into the hungry and eager low information voting block.

This is the end game of The Southern Strategy. Decades ago the Republican party encouraged the willfully ignorant to make voting Republican part of their identity. Never realizing that they wouldn't stop there. Eventually the willfully ignorant began electing EACHOTHER. They've consumed the GOP, and now all the conservatives who don't actively hate LGBT, women, and PoC run as Democrat or else they can't get elected.

The thing is that there are a LOT of people who will vote for the Republican candidate no matter who they are or what they stand for. This is the case with all republican family members in both my and my husband's family at least.

The level of fear my in-laws have of democrats in power is astonishing. During the last presidential election, they said they were genuinely afraid that if Biden were elected, they would no longer be allowed to attend church. They're Catholic. Biden is a life long, practicing Catholic. But they thought he and the American government, founded on religious freedom, were literally going to shut down churches. These are well-educated, upper middle class people. And they vote.

Perry was a PA Army National Guard general. A fn general. Who engaged in sedition while an elected member of Congress.

Timothy McVeigh was a decorated US Army veteran. Look at him now. Oh. Right.

Ooze took an oath to Turkey. Fetterman did not.

On loyalty alone, I'd vote Fetterman. But there is also Ooze's thing with the animal abuse, the snake oil stuff, the gold shovel up his arse, and the simple fact that he is not a PA resident. Ooze is a jerseyite by way of Delaware and Ohio. Oh-fn-hio. Fetterman all the way.

You can walk freely where ever and however you wish. As an American, I will not stop you.

As to Ooze, as someone born in Cleveland (looks at map; yep, still located in the US of A) and raised in Delaware, why did he serve in the army of a foreign nation but not in the army of the country of his birth? Where do his loyalties truly rest? Whether Fetterman did or did not serve in the US military is irrelevant to the question.

It's cute how you appear and re-appear under so many names while always posting the same crap.

Fetterman gave some recent interviews. You can probably find them on youtube. He is clearly understandable. More coherent than even you.

As for who is the "spoiled rich kid," Fetterman went to Albright while Ooze went to ... Harvard using daddy's connections. After attending a wealthy private high school in Delaware. Too rich for public school, amirite?

Show me where I appear under different names oh wise one. I’ll wait. Fetterneck went to Harvard lived off his parents money till he was almost 50.

Keep lying to yourself it’s hysterical at this point. The man needs closed captioning to do a simple interview. I see you ignored how he held an innocent black man at gun point though 😂 you’re a tool

IamSauerKraut t1_itceyd1 wrote

Fetterman did his undergrad work at Albright. That's near Reading. The city in which he was born. His MBA is from UConn. Not an Ivy League School, either.

But Ooze used his daddy's connections to get into Harvard. And used daddy's connections to get into UPenn Med. Daddy paid cash for the tuition.

Ooze's daddy was no regular immigrant. Came in on a special visa given to folks with connections. Landed a high-salary job right away. No picking tomatoes on a farm for him. None of the "made it" except, as Ooze will do, took the money and ran back to Turkey. Some immigrant, indeed.

Do we know the "innocent" man was indeed innocent? Innocent of what? You do not even know. You just post the same old crap, delete it when challenged with facts, and then return under a different moniker to post the same old crap. Rinse and repeat. But, unlike your user name, the basic facts do not change.

Get out and vote. We can figure out what it all means after all the votes are counted. The polls and media narratives are all over the place.

I've been independent all of my voting life.

The past few years of watching and living in this political climate is absolutely fucking disgusting.

The thing that really makes me want to choose a candidate as of right now is very clear.

If anyone runs on a "The Election was Rigged" or represents any part of that platform, they can go fuck themselves.

Not that it's actually going to happen, but I'd love to see justice done properly to anyone who stood in the way of the democracy we all share.

My family on my mother's side, has been fighting for this country since the Revolution. I have family burried at Bowman's Tower in Bucks Country, Pa. A General. My Great Grandfather times 3 generations back. A General in fact.

So kindly fuck off if you truly do not see how the cult of personality is using you as a prop to keep " the stolen election" alive.

I'd love to see any part of Trump's family even put on any sort of uniform, let alone think about giving up their lives to defend this country they are making a mockery of.

orangesfwr t1_itbksei wrote

I'm happy for that, but there (unfortunately) is a considerable amount of "both sides" independents that don't pay nearly enough attention, think everything done by anyone in politics is purely political (including the Jan 6th committee), and that voting for one party only means you are "part of the problem". Oz's recent ads where he talks about "extremism on both sides" and "wanting to make people's lives better", as full of complete and utter shit as these ads are, will win some votes from those Independents.

I'm not so sure.

Presuming that this race was never as close as reported, and by a wide margin as I'm apparently hearing... then the Media is complicit.

The question is WHY?

Your post is making me question. I hadn't thought there was a positive spin to be put on making everything into a "horserace" when it really isn't, but it might actually drive turnout.

Personally I thought it was the usual, implicit right-wing bias seeking to dispirit Democratic voters, since Republicans always seem to have a fighting chance in the polls regardless of the insanity of their positions, campaigns, or behavior (see Walker...).

wagsman t1_itbwlue wrote

These types of headlines are designed to make potential Democratic voters think the election is a foregone conclusion, and if it is, they are less likely to make it a priority to vote.

Less turnout benefits republicans.

IamSauerKraut t1_itc7a3h wrote

Ooze "went to Ivy League schools" for his educations.

He got into Harvard because his world-famous doctor daddy paid for him to get in. Lived in Lowell House as an undergrad. Heard he was unhappy he did not gain entrance into preppy Kirkland or Winthrop-by-the-river. Used his daddy's connections to get into med school, too.

Fetterman did his undergrad at a school local to where he was born: Albright. Then went to UConn (not an Ivy League school) for an MBA. Was able to get into the Public Policy program at the K-School at Harvard on merit. His road in public service lead him to Pittsburgh and then to Braddock. He chose to leave a well-paying job to enter public service with AmeriCorps. We know the rest from there.

So.

Who is the Ivy Leaguer with the gold shovel stuck up his arse? Not John Fettterman.

Fetterman says he grew up in a privileged environment (whatever that means for York County) while Ooze remains silent about his gold shovel upbringing. Not a peep about attending high school at the wealthy private Tower Hill School. Why is that?

Your attempt to pivot the topic to me is cute, but, no, I did not go to college at an Ivy League school. Spent many years as a youth shoveling barn manure. And what Ooze presents smells quite a bit like that.

Before I knew much about either candidate, sure. The more I looked into their backgrounds, the more I’ve been convinced.

How would you classify yourself politically? And how long have you held those particular beliefs?

drewbaccaAWD t1_itd2o7a wrote

It was a pretty straight forward choice for me, as I disliked Oz even before he decided to run. McCormick, I would have actually given an open mind and the possibility of winning me over. I would have preferred Lamb over Fetterman.

A decade ago I would have called myself a swing voter (I've voted for R's in the past) but I find that increasingly hard at this point in history. I'm not on the left "the right was always bad" lines of thinking but at this point I don't think there's much of a middle remaining. You either side with the party falsely claiming "it was rigged" or you do whatever it takes to push the fanatics back into obscurity.

The fact that Trump is still the favorite for 2024 after everything while the Dems pushed Biden over someone like Bernie clearly shows the difference between the two parties at this time and place. Anyone endorsed by Trump should automatically be written off.

What does that mean for dems and leftists?

We have to vote with the same tenacity as retirees that want to watch the world burn (and stop the tiny, green, drag queen fairies from stealing their drugs)

And that means, I do not want to hear a single, self absorbed reason from a dem or leftist for not voting this election. ESPECIALLY since vote by mail is simple and easy to use

Because Trump is such a simpleton it’s so goddamn simple to get an endorsement out of him. Say nice things about him and it doesn’t matter how you terrible of a candidate you are he will endorse you. That’s all his tiny brain cares about.

Do not let polls stop you from voting. They can be wrong or manipulated to affect voter turnout.

Everyone should vote.

It’s propaganda that both sides use. They throw out bullshit like this and hope it sticks in their supporters minds and that they take it as a fact. This is standard on both sides.

I don't understand how people who support Trump don't realize by now that literally everything the man touches corrodes and dies a whimpering death.

I guess sunk cost fallacy is very real.

By the way, get out and vote when elections come around.

This is implying that the President has a direct effect on the economy when it's a multitude of different things.

A lot of the growth we saw in Trump's first two years were more due to policies that were put in place during Obama's administration. He had the chance to build up from that, but instead he went ahead and cut taxes for the wealthy (with the Republican party insisting that this is a good thing). More socialist subsidies to farmers in order to keep our domestic production going. The stock market fluctuated more during his four years than they have so far by Biden's second year.

That's not even to mention the global fuck-up that was 2020's pandemic.

Some of what we're facing today is the direct result of economic tariffs and bogus "trade wars" with other countries that Trump was playing through his four years. But that's only a small part of it.

No, if prices are rising, it's due in no small part to corporate greed. Gas and oil companies could have kept their prices low, but they spent decades and hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars on our government to not put in caps to how much gas can be charged. They're seeing record profits with the prices as high as they are, and yet the common folk are struggling to pay the higher gas prices. Biden's fault? Food processing companies are raising prices even though wages are not going up. In general, you're seeing higher prices because people are seeing dollar signs in raising prices. Biden's fault?

No, capitalism. Through and through.

The President effects the economy through the policies they choose to do or not do. reason gas prices were so low under trump he opened up more drilling in the usa got less oil from over seas thus OPEC LOWERED PRICES less demand thus our oil in our country fell in prices its economics 101 supply demand. lower oil prices reflect in lower gas prices reflect in lower prices for goods cause shipping costs are lower. Bidens first week in office canned the pipeline so that stoked fears his camping was on pushing oil out fracking drilling processing thus fear in the market we started producing less asking OPEC FOR MORE. in return prices went up.

Ukraine needed weapons and Trump withdrew aid for political dirt. Zelenskyy wasn't joking about the need for weapons and neither was the pentagon. Hunter Biden is not relevant anymore than trumps goofy kids or 6 ex wives.

I believe that Hunter Biden has a laptop and is probably an idiot son of a politician but he's not exactly brokering peace in the Middle East while Eric trump is also an idiot and thinks he can make peace with the Arabs bc his brother in law is Jewish. Same w Donald trump jr. Tiffany and Ivanka and they are all in the freaking White House despite having zero background in diplomacy, never served in the military (at least Hunter made an attempt) and are hustling hotel brands and makeup kits and fashion. Hunter prob doesn't speak Ukrainian and knows nothing about Gas. This is nepotism and not a crime or trump would be in jail or indicted a third time.

Let me know when you find real info about Biden taking millions from Russia and China. And if you can, tell me how Kushner isn’t worse.

And I don’t see Hunter anywhere near the Whitehouse, unlike Trumps kids.
