I'm not a big fan of legalizing weed myself, but pursuing cheap energy should be a top priority for any government.

Just an example and I’m not really fussed either way but maintaining the status quo while raising taxes is not going to bring about economic growth.
Agreed. Either you create/produce/extract stuff or you are screwed.
Trump's new/old hair

Impressive to fumble the ball that badly. The assassination attempt had it sealed. Bookies had him around 2/5 at one point.
The assassination attempt had absolutely no effect on the polls (may have done at the bookies if idiots were firing their money over the counter with similar accuracy to the shooter). None of that stuff ever does. Reminds me of when Jo Cox got murdered during the Brexit campaign and everyone thought that would swing it for Remain. No effect at all.
Trump has a hard ceiling and will lose.
Perhaps not, but then venn diagram of her fans and young people who might not otherwise vote could be massive. Unless they're all underage.
The YUTEs who tend to not bother on voting day might be more inclined to do so if their cult leader says they should.
She endorsed Hilary, I'm sure of it.
She did but a lot of her fans that were too young then can probably vote now.
There's a reason TS dropped a thing about early voting into her message. Not her first rodeo. Literally, I would have thought.
It's all about the 'battleground' states anyway isn't it? Which leads to the bizarre question of how popular Taylor Swift is in a particular set of states.
I'm amused at the idea that Trump has somehow fucked it, with the elephant that has left the room still being avoided. He's just carried on doing what he always does, being Trump. The difference now is that the Democrats actually have someone competent running, rather than a dementia patient.

The assassination attempt had no effect because 1. everyone outside of the MAGA cult hates the dude and wouldn't have been upset if the bullet went 10 cm to the right and 2. the shooter was a basement dwelling white dude with no way to spin it being a democrat hit job.
On the debate:
As for celebrity endorsements, my gut is that they have almost no sway whatsoever. I've seen no actual research on this, so if someone can show me evidence of where they have (in an actual country) then I'll change my mind.
Swift feels like the only one who could be an exception to the rule, but you would think her fanbase is already made up of 99.9% liberals.
Page 3 models telling people who to vote for back in the day surely had some pull.
I could believe it used to work, before the internets completely destroyed the mystique that celebrities once had. Once that was lost and it became clear as day that they're just people and in some cases, slightly deranged people, or worse, people who cover up/turn a blind eye to abuse etc. no one cares what they have to say.
I only voted Labour at the last election because June Sarpong endorsed them. So it must have some effect.
You should watch Jesse Ventura’s Conspiracy Theories. June’s an advisor on that.
The Body?
I would never in a million years have guessed Ventura and Sarpong had crossed paths, let alone made a TV show together.
It shocked me too. It's like Zane Lowe being a Bounty Hunter.
I remember some TOWIE clowns on the front of The Sun proclaiming the tories were 'the reem ticket'.
Please let him win. The west is fucked anyway, our downfall can atleast be funny.
Has someone tried to kill him again?
Trump's campaign is failing, he said a load of weird shit the last week, suddenly he's ripe for assasination again.
Makes it sound like he was trying catch up in strokes.Trump 'two or three' holes behind shooter - official
The West really needs to start getting its shit together. Just laughable at the moment.
This has the potential to finish Tenacious D off permanently.
Now I'm no operational security expert etc, but aren't there a few glaringly obvious issues with saying:
We're being told the Secret Service's protection of the former president Donald Trump always stays one hole ahead of Trump when he is golfing.
Like, one should they be saying this and two, what about assassins trying to 'play through', as it were?
It's so he can plant a better positioned ball.
Lol so they saw an AK47 sticking out of a bush and started firing at it? Slap stick.
This feels a bit more like that lunatic that 'tried to kill' the queen with a crossbow than a genuine assassination attempt, which in turn makes it feel all a bit set up #konspiracykiko.
It's Kamala Harris who's trying to kill him.
Or the Haitians.
Boris tried this when he faked the COVID death thing and it worked a fucking treat. No wonder he keeps doing it.
Watching the Trumpheist thing on C4, if the vice president has the powers that Professor Crackpot suggested they did, is the ultimate bantz outcome of the election that Trump 'wins' but fraud is alleged and Harris uses said sweeping powers to reject his electors, in turn seeing her win? I assume in situation where the vice president is a candidate someone else does that job, but those are minor details.

Whilst perusing 538 I noticed the democrat senate candidate in Missouri is called Lucas Kunce. Of course, he tries to make out that it is pronounced KOONTS. Not having it Lucas.
I feel like Elon fully throwing his hat in with Donald at this time is just another clue that the man is a fucking moron.
