No, there’s no way it’ll ever happen. If he’s even on the ballot, liberals will come out of the woodworks to vote for Biden. It also doesn’t help that RFKJr is stealing a sizable amount of votes from the Republican party as well.
I take nothing for granted with this clown. The fact that he’s still a free man in the first place makes me weary of his impact on the future.
I hope he loses. Or better gets hit by a car before election time. But if he makes it to the ballot and his name is on the paper in November. He’s a threat.

She seemed a little leery of the proposal.
That edit is absolutely embarrassing. Is your team winning really more important than democracy? It’s “propaganda” when real emails proving bias are leaked because it was your preferred political party? Come on.
Yes leaking private e-mail exchanges to gain political advantage is textbook propaganda, what else would it be…?
My apologies that you assumed “conspiracy” in my comments that was just talking about the factual leak, that the republicans used to their advantage. Without that propaganda they would have found or made more. This really isn’t a difficult concept, once you stop assuming “conspiracy”… since that was not even once mentioned until you did……
“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.” Also, “Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.”. Carlin of course.
I was curious, so i googled.
I could find a mention that this quote could never be positively connected to Carlin even though (speciallu on facebook) people shared this quote. It most.likely is a wrong one.
It’s literally his stand up routine that he repeated to hundreds of crowds.
“Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.”
This is the quote your link is questioning… They’re likely correct that this direct quote doesn’t exist. However there’s many instances throughout his career that can succinctly be paraphrased as this phrase. I can specifically think of a few concepts Carlin talked about often that would apply… Religion, government, and general IQ discussions being prime examples. I’m not going to hunt for the specific quote… but it’s on brand for him.
Yet Haley and De Santis could make it close against Biden in swing states according to a NYT/Siena poll. Never underestimate human beings potential for stupidity and or shooting itself in the foot.

And that’s how propaganda works folks.
Edit
The propaganda is it being leaked, who said conspiracy…?
Also, that very likely wouldn’t have made a difference in the end result, without that discourse they would have found another avenue.
I’m sorry the propaganda worked so well on you, you now even defending it!
You’re going to have to be more specific there
Edit: lmao am I crazy here, what does any of this have to do with propaganda? Or did I just go against Lemmy’s doomer circlejerk again

Plus the various psychological warfare / trolling campaigns by Russia and China.
A poll out today shows 307 electoral votes for Trump.
Who was the poll through though?
Yeah, I remember the last time there was no chance in hell he’d be elected.
I won’t hold my breath.
They ran Hilary Clinton against him, that was a lot of the problem. Just as unlikable and abrasive.
I hope so. If Trump is attracting former Biden voters in enough numbers for him to win, I want off this ridiculous rock.
