Right wing dorks don't really get how much 75%+ of Jewsh Americans voting Dem in presidential elections really undercuts the antisemitism charges. It's some sort of hidden antisemitism that only people willing to tolerate "Jews will not replace us" chants can see.

This has been explained in this thread approximately half a dozen times in the last couple of weeks. I don't know who these guys think they're fooling with this act where they pretend those posts don't exist. I suppose it plays into the standard right wing mindset of "if I remain ignorant, I can pretend reality is whatever I fantasize it to be".

It's funny that nobody from the "unfair" political party are complaining. Only the maga crowd.

If "brrrrring" refers to money printing you probably should take a moment to look at a long-term graph of M2 then delete your post.

A group coming together to vote for one politician and encourage others to do likewise is completely unheard-of in the history of the US and it must be stopped. Thank you for sharing this.

In saying that dems deserve a hell of a lot of credit for inflation and slowing economic growth for their work in getting the votes to shut down large parts of the economy, increasing the size of the federal gov't, printing money at a faster rate and giving out so much money during covid. Remember that kamala was pro handouts while trump and repubs were fighting (fairly unsuccessfully) to keep more of the economy open/opening back up faster and giving out less handouts.

I had hoped Walz would be the pick. I really like him.

Shapiro is like Buttigieg in that he’s too ambitious for a deputy role, will be a future presidential candidate himself one day, and Kelly looks like he’s never taken an order from a woman a single day in his life. Wasn’t a fan of either.

bahbah telling other posters that their posts are embarrassing and should be deleted is not without a generous dollop of irony.

This overstates things. They recieve public funds to run their primaries. If republicans tried something like whites only are allowed to vote that would certainly be illegal. The point is Democrats are following all the rules. Biden won the most delegates have been released by him and now Harris has the nominee. Doing anything else would be changing the rules on the spot that all primary vters went to the polls voting under.

Trump and the Republicans making a mess of the Covid-19 response likely cost you an added 300 000+ deaths and probably in the ballpark of an extra trillion dollars.

But there's no rule that says they need to have a primary. Plus, they could just name a majority of "super delegates" of their own choosing where the primary results (if they had one) wouldn't matter.

The problem is that in 1920 and 1924 jews voted a lot for 3rd party candidates (38% in 1920 and 22% in 1924).

If you look at Jewish averages from 1928 through 2020 the overall average for Democrats is 73.8% which is 26.1% above average.

Also since 2000 the average Jewish vote for Democratic Presidential candidates is 73.5% which is 23.7% above the average.

The one time period through present where Jews were at about 75% is from 1992 through 2020 (where it was at 74.9%). Apparently we were big fans of Bill Clinton...

73.5% seems to be about 75%.

Where did you come up with 300k?

It is debatable if repub or dem covid policies will led to more or less deaths. What isn't debatable is that the policies dem pushed slowed economic growth and increased inflation.

Without warning, Mr. Trump tweeted a video that urged Congress to go back to the drawing board and increase the $600 stimulus checks to $2,000 per adult. If Mr. Trump vetoes or refuses to sign the bill, Congress would have to reconvene to override the decision.
Quote:
"I am asking Congress to amend this bill and increase the ridiculously low $600 dollars to $2,000, or $4,000 for a couple," Mr. Trump said in the recorded message.
Lies lies lies .
Baham biggest troll ever .

Trump was an even biggger pro handouts lol ..

Ps: please baham don’t use the word remember , you just can’t remember anything right .

But somehow it isn't debatable that republican policies would've done better? Hypocritical.

(and for the record, no. It's no really debatable that democrat policies would've saved more lives. That's pretty easily provable.)
