Presidential Election 2024

A big problem is going to be these lifelong congressional members. That means not just the Democrats like Pelosi or Schumer. It means McConnell and Grassley, even Graham.

These old timers, some new ones like Gaetz are going to keep leading the Republican party towards a direction that is either too conservative or too divisive.

We need to use this as a time to realign the whole party.

We need term limits. Badly. But how the Hell are we going to get these old timers and lifelong snakes to vote for it?
 
This is a time for Trump to smack congress into line and realize that there is still a little under half of the country that was willing to vote for someone who was never given votes into a presidential race.

I know for a fact that Trump isn't a die hard conservative Republican if yesteryear. All the media framing him as so, or even worse is part of the problem, but I put a large chunk of it on these idiots in congress doing the wrong thing.

We don't need to take Medicai or food stamps from people in a mass cut. We need to clean up the rules and application guidelines so people who need it get it and not the people abusing it.

We don't need green energy eviscerated, we need to invest in sustainable companies and technology that makes sense. Forced mandates on ancient infrastructure makes no sense. It needs to be done like Greensburg Kansas did after the monster tornado.

There is so much we need to do or change, for the better of everyone, but man congress will still suck.

We need term limits for everyone elected.
 
The media, especially social media, has ruined our society. All we have been hearing is "Hitler" "racist" "end of democracy".

It's not true for Americans as a whole. Get these bad apples out of congress, police force, corporations/lobbyists.

The key is unity and a return to a country people are proud of.

Trump has a chance to do this round right. I hope he does.
 
Seems like America is so full of hate with this news:

I personally have 0 issue with this AT ALL.
 
Trump won MIzzou tonight, with 58 percent of the vote but yet:

Seems like common sense politics (for a change) to me.
 
In closing. Here's the deal. Trouble makers are still going to try and be divisive. Companies like MSNBC, who are already screaming vile rhetoric in their lashing out have already begun.

It's up to everyone to either a. Interact with it or b. Ignore it.

Some people will say "you wouldn't be so nice if Kamala won instead" and that's actually true. I personally wouldn't be. Why?

Because the messaging in this election has been how white men and women are racist. How we hate people that don't have our same skin color. How we are fascists or Nazis. How we don't want women to have a say about their own bodies.

The entire message was division. Oprah even said if trump won, that people would probably never be able to vote again.

A Kamala win would have kept division since their whole message was division.

More than half of the USA said enough was enough. Not just an electoral college, which in itself is divisive in past elections.

So again, you have a choice to interact with people wanting to keep the USA divided or you can ignore and move on.

Personally, I'm taking the later. And that includes not giving time to people being divisive on either side, "left" or "right".

Gaetz is too divisive but Trump is ok.....seriously? Are you aware of how far to the right the folks that control Trump are?
 
So Trump is going to end up around 71-75 million votes as I expected, slightly less than 2020. The ballot harvesting was was mitigated through legal actions and other reasons, and the democratic numbers went right back to where they were before. Shocking I tell you.
 
Sure didn't take the divisive fighting part to start in here again. Dang, I wish people would unify, but alrighty.

To each their own.
