An Australian professor of Data Analytics from Griffith University who predicted Trump’s first win, the Australian Federal Election(when all the polls said the opposite) and Brexit has called it - Trump will be re-elected for another 4 years. You heard it here first.
What was that you were saying about not being able to pay for all the promises?
The idea that massive tax cuts for the wealthy stimulates innovation growth or tax increases on them cause rich people to suddenly flee the country is all a bit lower sixth form economics. Doesn’t seem to happen in reality.
The MSM or professional media outlets are the only legitimate sources that stand between the people and a government. If a government crosses a line, how are we going to know? I know this is basic stuff but an entire generation gets its news from social media and this simple fact has gotten lost over the years and something Trump knows all too well. If you are going to cut somebody off at the knees, don't tell them in advance but Trump has never been good at keeping his mouth shut so it's no surprise he told Lesley Stahl back in 2016 why he calls the media Fake News.
Stahl said on Monday night that in a candid, off-camera meeting earlier that year, she pressed him to explain his barrage of insults aimed at journalists, and he gave her a clear explanation:
"I said, 'You know, that is getting tired. Why are you doing this? You're doing it over and over. It's boring and it's time to end that,'" Stahl said on stage alongside "PBS Newshour anchor Judy Woodruff.Â
"He said, 'You know why I do it? I do it to discredit you all and demean you all so when you write negative stories about me, no one will believe you.' He said that," Stahl told the audience, adding, "So, put that in your head for a minute."
So now we have a generation that mistrusts the MSN and believes the disinformation and if that doesn't turn around, Trump won't be the last wannabe dictator brainwashing his followers into power.
Not saying if genuine, but many reports of mail in vote irregularities coming in. MSM won't report. Apparently in some cases republican observers prevented from viewing vote counting by democrats. If true, so much for democracy...
Genuine question: when you say "MSM won't report" are you saying this because 1. You've watched a variety of different media sources over the past few days and haven't seen them explain the issue 2. Someone has tweeted this
Most tv networks have been showing election stuff for the past three days and are entirely desperate to show anything new. Most of the irregularities are things they've explained. Example: isn't it convenient that all of the mail in ballots are skewing democrat they must be cheating. Not really. Biden told all of his supporters to vote by mail, trump told all of his to vote in person.
It's worth noting that one of the more commonly shared cases, where a prominent republican tweeted about suspicious votes all going to Biden, that same republican posted an apology for tweeting it, saying he had misunderstood and asking people not to share further...but by that point the tweet had been screenshotted and is still being shared widely as "evidence"
On the prevented from viewing the count case in pennsylvania. Three things: 1. That voting place has a live video feed where anyone, including you, can watch. 2. There are multiple members representing trump in that room 3. The person in question was allowed in, but kicked out because he was refusing to follow social distancing protocols
I was not or never have defended Trump's economics.
But there is little to no chance the Dem's will be any better.
Talk is cheap, equality is no, their past record shows they have never managed it before.
VERY little will change in the next 4 years. promises broken and back to Republicans
And round and round it goes.
Come on 2T2B All these American Politicians are weird and dodgy. But Trump is completely off the wall. He’s completely overwhelmed by his own ego. He must have his own way or he’ll cry and cry until he’s sick and throw his toys and with the pram out the window. THIS GUY HAS THE NUCLEAR BUTTON.
