Swollen ankles, napping in public and calling Kristi Noem the wrong name is not be reported by your confirmation bias media. They are ignoring Trump’s obvious Sundowning

Your confirmation bias media has no credibility for who is, or isn't sundowning.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Your media isn't adequately reporting Trump's wins and overreporting his losses.

Pete is the quintessential manufactured politician. The very definition of an empty suit.

Well spoken, well versed, unaccomplished, wealthy, backed by big donors, “diverse” and completely inauthentic.

Many here like him because he can espouse the party lines well. If you just want the Democratic Party in power, similarly to Biden, go with Pete.

He’d never win though.

Though AOC even less.

If the democrats want to win, it’s Shapiro or Kelly. Likely Shapiro.

They are too anti Jewish these days for Shapiro.

If Dems are going to run clowns like Pete and Kamala, they will never win another election.

Find a new Bill Clinton.

I mean FBI director J. Edgar Hoover was gay AF and served from the earlier part of the 20th century for 48 years.

I think the primary problem is that he's too whitebread.

The Dems need a disabled BIPOC trans candidate so that they can appeal to the general populace. People generally are willing to elect Presidents they perceive as strong. Nothing screams inner strength, fortitude and resilience more than a BIPOC trans amputee.

why does nobody care that the black community is by far the most homophobic

Homophobia has more to do with religion, education, and socioeconomic status than race. Black people—on average—are more likely to be religious, under-educated, and have significantly lower socioeconomic status than white people in the US, so naturally you'll find an increase in homophobia from those three things alone. There is also a cultural aspect to this, but I'm not sure it's possible to ascertain whether or not that is just borne out of the aforementioned issues.

American Urban Black population will never support a homosexual candidate in numbers. It is what it is.

He’s gay, so that makes sense

Who's anti-Jewish?

we b racialized for 1000s of yrs

 

[Cajun]

Who's anti-Jewish?

The ones harassing Jewish students on campuses etc. Not the middle but the further left imo. Saw some heckling Jerry Seinfeld to free Palestine. Those types. I also doubt he will get the Muslim vote.

Its not that noone cares but usually a minority group doesnt get called out concerning another minority group.

?? Hoover was never elected to public office.

People will vote for a guy who fucks kids before they would vote for a guy who fucks another guy. It’s simply a shit take by black people.

 

[Cajun]

Yeah you don’t question the validity of that poll? You’re suggesting that 100% of black people don’t like him? You can’t get 100% of people to agree on any issue. Ask 100 Americans if the earth is flat and probably five of them will say yes.

He had a similar thing in 2019 with black voters. Just seems there is no support for him. Him being gay doesn't help him in that community.

So you agree with @heloder . Urban blacks are in general less educated and have no status, and those groups are more homophobic that the general pop.

It's a shame.

I've said before I have concerns about him and his history (specifically his shrouded resume and his work with McKinsey) but as far as competency goes, he's as good as it gets. People dismissing his accomplishments are insane, and he'd be the best communicator we've seen run for office since Obama.

I don't think a gay man could win the presidency in America these days. I don't think a gay man will win the Democratic Nomination and sure as hell wouldn't even try the Republican nomination.

It's ironic the first woman president will probably be Republican, just because Republicans would NEVER vote for a Democrat woman but MIGHT vote for one of their own with the right endorsements.

I'm talking about the perception that a gay person can't be "strong." An FBI director obviously breaks that stereotype.

I think in urban areas education is generally less prevalent. I would say education or lack there of has a correlation with not being supported of homosexuality.

I would argue that the rejection of homosexuality in the black community is more culturally based than anything else though.
