Elections DNC today in Chicago

Why bother?

If they got rid of Trump the MSM would just do the same character assassination 'worse than Hitler' treatment to Vance, or whatever Republican nominee in 2028 or 2032.

The same treatment they gave McCain in 2008 & Romney in 2012.

The MSM attacked Romney because he had binders full of job resumes of female candidates that his team was reviewing for state positions when he was governor.

They literally attacked him for this.

And the same would not play as well with a weakened media.
 
I kinda liked the Joe moment. A bit sad seeing all the cheers when they fucked him up like they did a month ago. Feels a lot longer than a month. We won't hear much from him going forward. After January 20th probably only when he'll die.
 
Abortion rights are not the only motivation. Just listen to the many comments Trump has made recently . Lindsey Graham was begging Trump on FOX an NBC to get back on message. Lindsey Graham: talking about her ancestry, skin color, her education an other issues you will lose.

He said stick to economics, energy costs, cost of groceries, way you can cut energy costs an grocery cost an just saying elect me an I will fix it will not work this time.

Lindsey not the only one Fox also went hard on him with a panel criticism on the campaign. Fox panel could have been on NBC. Brit Hume the 81 year old FOX News host came back to be a part of the panel. They where not being friendly to Trump.

Trump did a truth social post absolutely slamming Fox over it. Instead of listening to common sense advice he attacks the messenger. Biden was told after his horrible debate all major outlets he needs to step down.

Three weeks later he dropped out of the race an Kamala stepped in an began to campaign. Biden listening to people around him that he was dragging down the party. He understands the reality of the situation Trump will not listen to the Lindsey Graham an just about everyone around him who not named MTG or Matt Gaetz.

Biden tonight said he is not upset at the people around him an understand what he needed to do. Very different message then Trump. Biden: America America I gave my best to you.

AOC an Jasmine crockett both gave good speeches an AOC hit it out of the park. But AOC no Hulk Hogan am I right brother lol.


AOC sounded like an idiot....what is that voice? Jesus she is so cringe. Pelosi called her an annoying gnat from a small district, but she is way more than an annoying gnat. She is a weirdo. From her weird thing at Bowmans rally where 13 people showed up to this, WTF is with her?
 
You trust Trump in a debate?
I think Trump is and always will be his own worst enemy. I think Kamala wins because their philosophy of having Kamala avoid the issues and let Trump and Vance keep tweeting will work. But she is an idiot, and experts know she has zero ability to handle the economy. Great for abortion though. The only hope for Trump is that Harris is let out of the basement and has to answer questions about inflation, and foreign policy "Ukraine is a small country invaded by Russia a big country, and that is bad". "Inflation is bad because prices have gone up". "We have been to the border, I haven't, but I haven't been to Europe either".
 
I’m happy for you. I love Austin but unfortunately I may need to give it up.
I always wanted to ask a local: what the hell is wrong with people who go out on 6th Street looking for fights? I see videos of brawls almost weekly. Has it always been like that?
 
yea Joe Biden saying Mitt wants to put black people in chains in 2012 .. they still play the card non stop and the NPC's eat it up

Not a bold proclamation when he was already putting women in binders.

Next thing you know, Romney will be putting Mexicans in an expandable and Cubans in the dog cage he keeps on top of his car. I just hope none of those poor Cubans get diarrhea like his dog.
 
Amazing what a pronounced police presence can accomplish
That was an ARMY lol. Coming from the defund the police party. And the ID and verification to get in is amazing considering the party doesn't want people to have to show IDs to vote. The party of ideals that they spew but don't apply to them personally.

“Defund the police; just not the ones protecting politicians”

There are two halves to 6th street. Dirty 6th and West 6th. West has some nice bars and is a cool place to hang out for happy hour. Dirty is where the fights are. It’s turned into a tourist “must see” place and over the last few years I think people just go there to cause a ruckus and the cops really can’t handle the situation. Austin is dealing with a lack of manpower after the BLM riots and a progressive city council.
 
it's a new day. do we have any new riot footage or is that one video of some hamas-humpers yelling at some cops on bikes, and a couple people walking through a police barrier and taking selfies right before getting pushed back by riot police all we've got so far?

Yes. I am from Texas and moved to Austin in 1999.

It’s always been crazier on the weekend and chiller on the weekdays.

One year, (I think it was 2000) on Mardis Gras, there was a huge riot. Some kid got shot in the eye with a rubber bullet.

I think I saw no less than six fights that night including some guy who got roached right next to me.

The thing is, when you’re wasted you notice it a lot less.

My wife took me on a double date one time down there to some yuppy “Speakeasy”.

I had already stopped drinking long before that and was completely sober.

When we came out it was like the zombie apocalypse.

Like Rob mentioned West 6th is super nice and safe and has always been
