Trump's VP pick would have tried to overturn the will of the American people in 2020.

Tell me Goom, since Biden dropping out of the primary was so offensive to you, how would this move be for American democracy?

Not a political party primary, literally the election to determine the president, and JD Vance would have gone along with the conspiracy Trump is being charged for.

Not as hard as it must be to watch these debates and NOT be able to see the "rigging" involved.

don't care
never paid attention to politics
never will

No, I can't, because I'm too busy/lazy/tired to go searching the web for shit to post for some rando on D2JSP. If you're claiming that Kamala or her campaign has never called for a wealth tax, then I guess the entire world is mistaken, because it's everywhere. It ain't just me bro, in fact I'm just going off the headlines.

presidents dont create new tax policy, the legislature does. a president cant just manifest a wealth tax via executive order.

Under the first bullet point "cut taxes for middle class families", it says:


Since billionaires make the majority of their money from capital gains, rather than from conventional income, and have plenty of opportunity to shuffle around and optimize their revenue streams, a "billionaire minimum tax" would necessarily imply one of two things: either a wealth tax, or a tax on unrealized capital gains.




Vance isn't saying that he would have certified Trump's electors, just that he would have stopped the certification process until the legal battles over the contested states were settled. As we know with the benefit of hindsight, Biden comfortably won all those battles, so in reality, Vance's proposal would only have delayed the process by a week or two.

This would, of course, have weakened Biden by casting a shadow of doubt and illegitimacy over his presidency and sapping his political capital, based on bogus charges. In other words: the exact same thing that Democrats did to Trump with the Russiagate hoax.

That's what most npcs living on this planet does and that's why were in the situations we're in right now on the whole continent. Ain't targeting you specifically but talking in general.

Every time I open my webmail, there's an AD at the top.

It asks me to donate to the Harris Victory Fund - before the debate. LOL


/e 6.5 hours till Trump annihilates Harris. :-)

This is completely insane, and I'm honestly surprised you are saying this.

The American people vote, the states send the slates of electors, and the VP has a ceremonial role in presiding over the counting on January 6th. The fact that you support JD Vance's position of obstructing this process is nuts. The idea that spurious legal battles should delay this Constitutional process because of insane conspiracy theories... I don't even know what the fuck we're talking about anymore.

Can we get back to a world where policies are debated? Cause this is not it.

I mean, can we? I'm not sure if Kamala is running the most policy-adverse campaign in US history because 2020 was a pretty terrible election too, but she's sure trying.
We're 50 some days out from the election and Kamala is waffling between trying to take credit for the positions she staked as VP, trying to disavow the positions she staked as VP, and copying Trump's positions.
And pretty much the one single policy proposal she's made that breaks the mold is... a tax on unrealized gains. The one you didn't believe and thought was absurd.


I'm making a conscious effort to try to learn what Kamala stands for, research her platform and see if she holds any consistent beliefs and the only position I can find she held is horizontal
