How would you describe the policies in San Francisco?Oh eff you. You're Elon's sock puppet, you want Trump to win.
"San Francisco extremist marxist". LOL.

It doesn't really help that with many things she's proposing, she could do right now if she was going to do them. It definitely raises questions as to her level of sincerity or the ability to accomplish any of it.Doesn’t help with those middle votes that Harris is proposing price controls.
lol - Trump has never said he put on price controls. He is an American capitalist.That's been his entire economic message. Put him in charge and he will fix prices. He says it over and over. Every. Last. Rally. Every. Last. Response. Trump is the one making price controls the center of his entire economic life.
what’s the implication? trump appreciates bbc and will get a big chunk of black male votes?Uh oh

However, the problem is…what’s the definition of “price gouging”? It’s a socialist concept, that never works, and creates shortages.You claim she is going to control prices. What she is actually doing is calling for a ban on price gouging. Most states already do this. It's a non controversial measure that nobody cared about until Harris hit the scene and morons like you had nothing else to use against her. Might as well admit it, bins
Do you want to hear the audio where Trump showered praise on Walz for the timing of the National Guard deployment?Trump actually contacted Walz early on in the Minneapolis riots to offer nat’l guard support, but witless Walz chose to wait before deploying them.
Your cause and effect is askew my friend.Which is why we have anti price gouging laws. Price gouging doesn't make for healthy markets. It makes for wild swings.
What is Iowa’s price gouging ban?Iowa has price gouging bans. So does Florida. So does Texas. Maybe you should ask Reynolds, DeSantis, and Abbott?
you should have informed trump that walz let minneapolis burn.
You just admitted those price supports are only for disasters/emergencies…not everyday life, as Harris is proposing. Case closed.They're related to any disaster or emergency. Which means that even conservative states are fine with consumer price protections. Until Harris says she is, too. Then you flip out. It's ok to admit that you had zero problem with this until Harris said she supported it.
Can you explain how the VP can do what you are stating right now?It doesn't really help that with many things she's proposing, she could do right now if she was going to do them. It definitely raises questions as to her level of sincerity or the ability to accomplish any of it.
Trump leads Harris by 2-3 percentage points when JFKjr is included (he is n the FL ballot as the Reform Party candidate) and that lead is roughly half of Trump’s lead over Biden.Trump leads by 4.6%.
Two GOP Senators
GOP governor
Two thirds of the state legislature is GOP
By what definition is Florida not solid red?
Trump was just happy that MN finally stopped the bleeding, but I’m sure he (as most did) wanted to stop the violence sooner.Do you want to hear the audio where Trump showered praise on Walz for the timing of the National Guard deployment?
Harris' isn't everyday, either. It's specifically for unforseen price hikes. But keep making stuff up if it makes you feel better.You just admitted those price supports are only for disasters/emergencies…not everyday life, as Harris is proposing. Case closed.
He's a conservative free market capitalist when it suits him. Otherwise he an anti-competition economic protectionist whose stated policies are anything but. Tarrifs and large tax cuts are inflationary by definition and will serve only to bolster the wealthiest among us. That's why Elon is pushing him in spite of Trump's idiotic statements regarding electric cars. He knows electric cars are the future regardless of what the former Idiot In Chief is saying and that the biggest threats to Tesla are foreign competition.lol - Trump has never said he put on price controls. He is an American capitalist.
You're not mentally healthy. Get some help.
I thought Biden & Harris were a team? Therefore, if she, as the VP, feels strongly about something, she prolly could talk clueless Joe into it. 😜Can you explain how the VP can do what you are stating right now?
Prices are too high!! But you aren't allowed to do anything to lower them!What are your feeling on the Harris price control
Plan?
I think it’s more accurate to say that the support he’d gained had been people who didn’t want to vote for an octogenarian. That support seems to be fading now that Biden dropped out.He's absolutely lost support. A large portion of his base has simply died out.
“she could do right now”?It doesn't really help that with many things she's proposing, she could do right now if she was going to do them. It definitely raises questions as to her level of sincerity or the ability to accomplish any of it.
Regardless…Trump is NOT in favor of price controls (which is what I was responding to another poster about), but thanks for your input. 😉He's a conservative free market capitalist when it suits him. Otherwise he an anti-competition economic protectionist whose stated policies are anything but. Tarrifs and large tax cuts are inflationary by definition and will serve only to bolster the wealthiest among us. That's why Elon is pushing him in spite of Trump's idiotic statements regarding electric cars. He knows electric cars are the future regardless of what the former Idiot In Chief is saying and that the biggest threats to Tesla are foreign competition.
Because a natural disaster is an emergency. 🤔Why do you keep saying natural disasters? It's for any emergency. And even red states agree that it's necessary.
Correct, the bulk of posters on this site are Dems.More like 80% (D), 18% (R) and 2% (I).
Trump leads Harris by 2-3 percentage points when JFKjr is included (he is n the FL ballot as the Reform Party candidate) and that lead is roughly half of Trump’s lead over Biden.
In addition? there are several important factors which should favor Dems in Florida this cycle. Abortion access, marijuana legalization, other ballot issues. Field operations superiority, cash advantage.
Florida has one of the most restrictive abortion laws in America. Constitutional Amendment 4 [Abortion Access] has been ballot certified As we know from prior successful state ballot measures (Kansas, Ohio, and Kentucky, e.g) this measure will drive massive number of pro/abortion voters ( including new voters) to the polls.
Florida is at best “lean Republican”. In 2020, Incumbent Trump beat Biden by only 3.5 %points.
It’s a toss up with Harris.
More like 80% (D), 18% (R) and 2% (I).
lol - I lived in MN during the Floyd tragedy. Trump was certainly offering support/troops, etc (whatever you want to call it) early on but Walz drug his feet as he didn’t want to alienate his radical base.Oh Hans. Such a blatant lie
The Minnesota National Guard, the entity that Walz deployed, is under the command of the governor, not the president. The president has the power to federalize states’ Guard troops under certain circumstances, but Trump never did so during the 2020 unrest in Minnesota.
Correct.So the reason for those particular laws is to address rare instances of complete market dislocation created by extraordinary events. They are not intended to provide any fixing of prices outside of those situations.
And it's only become redder since then, following the lead of Iowa and Ohio.The 538 shows Trump with a 4.6 lead with Kennedy in the race. And all of those other factors that you believe should help Harris are already baked into those numbers. Not to mention, as those are progressive issues. Given the GOP's stranglehold on Florida's political offices, I struggle to see how a)you can NOT consider it to be a solid red state, and b)why those progressive issues will sway people in a conservative state to vote Democrat.
Florida is a solid red state. There is no argument otherwise. That Obama managed to (barely) carry the state twelve years ago does not change this fact.
However, most of the posters on this specific site (perhaps not the bulk of lurkers?) are decidedly Dem leaning.A bunch of white, midwestern, sports-minded, males. This is the GOP demographic.
Harris is a cackling idiot and that's all she'll ever be. The "excitement" is either manufactured or it's pure Trump hate. NOT because she's fantastic and has anything to offer with helping the US with its problems. She's by far the worst of the 3 candidates and would get steam-rolled in on the world political stage. Sorry, but she's a weak-ass candidate and those people with half a brain or greater realize it.
Hopefully, debate(s) can change some of that narrative.I am a glass half full guy-the turn around from where we were a mere four weeks ago (that’s right folks he stepped down 4 weeks ago to the day). He was free falling in the national polls and trailing literally every swing state. Kamala has only had about 23 days of campaigning as the nominee and is pulling away in national polls and already flipped all the swing state polls.
The trends are staggering and there is indeed panic on the right (the stories of senate and house candidates realizing they may have to finally distance themselves from Trump are real).
There is a convention to be had and Trump is truly melting down and looking shabby. And the enthusiasm gap is huge and on the Democrats side. Turnout to vote for Harris or vote against Trump will be massive. And they will continue to campaign every day while Trump holds ranty old man shakes fist at sky press conferences at golf courses or resorts.
I wouldn’t say Harris is an “idiot” as she is very crafty at telling selected audiences what they want to hear.Anybody who says Harris is an idiot are almost certainly below-average IQ people. There are plenty of criticisms for Harris, but being dumb is not one of them. And when here laugh is the first thing you criticize, it also tells me you are an unserious, below-average IQ person. You entire post screams "I'm not a serious human being."
As I've said before:
Other prospective candidates > Harris > fifty feet of crap > Kennedy > another fifty feet of crap > Trump
Trump is as vile of a human being I've ever seen run for office.
Trump leads Harris by 2-3 percentage points when JFKjr is included (he is n the FL ballot as the Reform Party candidate) and that lead is roughly half of what was Trump’s lead over Biden.Trump leads by 4.6%.

What could turn Florida this year has nothing to do with the candidates. Amendment 4 may bring a lot of voters to the polls who won't support a candidate who brags about putting justices on the SCOTUS who helped overturn RoevWade.By your metrics, Florida =Mississippi North. Both voted for Trump in 2020, but they are not the same in 2024.
And Scott is not well liked and I'm not sure Rubio is either.
Trump will need to spend $$$ to hold on in Florida. That's significant when his campaign is getting dwarfed in fundraising.
So what’s the definition of “unforeseen price hikes”? Just admit it…Kamala’s “plan” is unworkable. I’m glad she verbalized it, as it shows how ditzy she is.Harris' isn't everyday, either. It's specifically for unforseen price hikes. But keep making stuff up if it makes you feel better.
lol - I lived in MN during the Floyd tragedy. Trump was certainly offering support/troops, etc (whatever you want to call it) early on but Walz drug his feet as he didn’t want to alienate his radical base.
Righties seldom worry about facts.The mayor of Minneapolis (Frey) sent a written request to Walz for NG support on May 28. At 4pm on May 28, Walz activated the MN NG. At 10:41pm on May 28 the NG sent 500 troops into Minneapolis.
Meanwhile, at 11:53pm on May 28th (after the Guard had been activated) Trump took to social media to demand the Minneapolis bring the city under control
Then, on June 1, Trump praises Walz on a phone call.
“What they did in Minneapolis was incredible. They went in and dominated, and it happened immediately,” Trump told Walz and other governors and officials in a phone call…”
So your timeline seems sus, Hans. You calling Trump a liar here?
One can hope.What could turn Florida this year has nothing to do with the candidates. Amendment 4 may bring a lot of voters to the polls who won't support a candidate who brags about putting justices on the SCOTUS who helped overturn RoevWade.
No law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health, as determined by the patient's healthcare provider. This amendment does not change the Legislature's constitutional authority to require notification to a parent or guardian before a minor has an abortion.
And, which states have been the most aggressive at keeping participation down. I’m looking at you, Georgia.Unless the National polls are constructed to mimic electoral college outcomes, I have a hard time putting much faith in nationwide percentages. And even then, I always thought the Dems needed closer to 5-6% advantage before you could have confidence in hitting the 270 mark.
Regardless, I think the most critical factor will be any swing states or marginally red states that have managed to get pro choice/abortion measures onto the November ballots. This should drive up participation from likely Harris voters and could provide the extra push needed to get her over the top.
Got it. She’s far more accomplished in life than you are, and it’s because of the hard work she has put in.Did Biden say he was only going to pick a woman of color or did he not?
What you think my resume has to do with anything is beyond me. What a weird comment.
