When people like Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, and the Great Taylor Swift start endorsing politicians that politician is in trouble. Don't know abut you but I can't afford a $500-$5000 ticket to see these assholes when you can barely afford between food and rent. There is no question Trump will fuck over the working class like we have never seen before and most likely bankrupt the country and the idiots who voted for him will still follow him to their literal deaths. This was a billionaire bought-and-paid for election and now they run the country, Trump is just the figurehead for asssucks like Von.

R.I.P. America.

Same old stupid cunt. What do you have, about 15,000 posts of your mental illness bullshit on here since you joined ? Go get laid....All of you pathetic fuckers really need to get over your Trump Derangment Syndrome. All of your brainwashing bought & paid for starting with the billionaire lib that owns CNN, & that other pathetic station MSNBC. They're so incredibly fucking embarrassing on that brainwash station I'd swear they're paid actors. What a fucking pathetic joke. Russia ! Russia, Russia !! Fucking dumb fucks., Chinese propaganda.....The shit we learned about in 6th grade is the America standard of journalism when it comes to Trump. Incredible to me America adults are fucking still falling for it almost a decade later. Journalists ? Socialists.....After what just happened in the election I hold out some hope that people are waking the fuck up. But it won't last if you keep watching that pure fucking pathetic shit. Shit you were fucking warned about when you were 12. Trump is going to run the country into the ground ?!! Are you fucking serious ?!! Honestly what the fuck do you think was going on the last 4 fucking years ?!! Dumb fucks.....your poor feelings are more important. Feelings you were told should be hurt. Unfucking believable....

John Malone (Warner Discovery/CNN) and Brian Roberts (Scumcast/MSDNC) are both extreme right wing billionaires. Nothing remotely "lib" about either of them.

Are their networks pathetic at "journalism"? Definitely. But it has nothing to do with "left wing" leanings, because none exist with either of them.

Joe Rogan's regular podcast audience is about 28x larger (14m v. 500k) than CNN's primetime audience.

Fox is the biggest News Channel in the US.

Musk owns and controls the Twitter algorithm deciding what people see on there.

Time to move on from the left leaning mainstream media line - things have changed big time.

It's been done so that literally the least fucking underdog people in the world including the 2 richest can present themselves as victims.

A ludicrous myth.

[Von Halen]

I have seen some Democrats saying they should be listening to the working people instead of chasing donors and the Hollywood elites.

Speaking of Hollywood...I am enjoying the outrage. Rich people telling poor people to be wary of rich people? Shut the fuck up. Go play make believe.

Too much talk about how billionaires are celebrating this election. Rolling Stone says "Billionaires Take Smug Victory Lap After Trump’s Decisive Win." Like there wouldn't be any millionaire actors doing the same thing.

Jon Stewart is crying about pollsters. Weren't most of the polls wrong in 2016?

Stop saying so-and-so cares about the public and so-and-so doesn't. None of them care about the rest of us.

This fucking twat raised a billion dollars immediately after they handed her the nomination on a silver platter. She didn’t get that from poor people.

Is that their facade they use ? Yet they let these dumb fucks run around their playgrounds with completely opossite viewpoints ? Laughable. That would be like a so called Harley guy pulling into a bike show on a fucking Honda ! Yet I'm to believe he's a Harley guy ? Spare me man.

I think the Democrats fought the election like it was 2004 not 2024. Having thousands of people knocking on doors doesn't make a difference so much - who answers their phone never mind the door during the day? Spending huge amounts on TV commercials when the people who may be influenced don't watch TV any more. Doing the weak crap on SNL didn't work for Hillary never mind now.

Looks like the gap was too big that any one thing would have made a difference but not going on Rogan while Trump, Vance and Musk all do in the last week was really fucking dumb.

Rogan is one of those people that agrees with the last person he talked to and is always a soft interview. If he has a scientist on like Brian Cox he's all about science, next day he could have a fucking tinfoil hat crazy UFO lizards guy and he will be all for it. Admittedly he skews a bit towards the crazy but still.

In 2016 there he did a live thing on election night from the comedy store with some other comics like Bill Burr and he was amazed, kind of appalled, thought it was fucking crazy that people would elect Trump. It will be on YouTube somewhere.

The votes that were up for grabs are what you would politely call 'low information voters' and there are definitely a bunch of them in the 28 million Rogan audience.

That said maybe she was always going to lose because hispanics, blacks and a bunch of other people aren't going to vote for a mixed race woman from San Fran when their rent has gone up 30% in a few years.

Now there's reports that the campaign is $20 million in debt

That's not a lot though is it given the stupid big numbers?

You can have preferences and views and there is some grey stuff and some things that may or may not be true but some stuff is just factual.

Russia has and does have a ton of people working on causing disruption in western countries the US, UK and so on. Its not specifically pro Trump it's who they think is most likely to cause disruption so they have supported various things like BREXIT, Bernie Saunders and Trump.

If you get rid of journalists then all you have is people just fucking talking. There is no source for the comment, no data, no content, it's just waffle.

The thing that scares me these days is that people say stuff like 'all politicians are in it for themselves, they all lie, they are all corrupt' and then in the next breath want to give their guy absolute dictatorship power and want anyone that disagrees locked up like it's some sort of fucking football game and if your team wins you also win.

I really don't understand people that think the government is shit wanting to have a more authoritarian regime.

"I hate the government I really wish that they would shoot protestors more'.

The dems lost because they're a bunch of fucking woke nutjobs the last decade. With zero solutions. I voted for slick Willie twice. But that was a long time ago.... I think the ball of their stupidity got rolling with his psyco so called wife. She's such a pig. And I'd assume the lack of any candidates with a brain is why they got crushed this time around. Add in the pathetic woke media that people are finally reading right through.....Yet here we are just a few days later & they're going right down the same fucking avenue. The crying so called comedian late night hosts. The dumbfucks like poor old frowny face Jake Tapper on CNN, & the absolute pathetic jokes at MSNBC. I say good. They'll get smoked again in the next elections. I wonder what the solutions for America will be in their eyes in 4 years ? J.D. Vance is Hitler if he runs right ? Fucking pathetic brain dead motherfuckers.

Can I remind you of Trump's healthcare solution after what 9 years now?

"If we can come up with a plan that's going to cost our people, our population, less money and be better health care than Obamacare, then I would absolutely do it," Trump said.

"But if we come up with something, I would only change it if we come up with something better and less expensive," he said later in the debate. "And there are concepts and options we have to do that. And you'll be hearing about it in the not-too-distant future."

[78/84 guy]

Where do you brainwashed fuckers come from ? Can I remind you he left Obama care in place because he/they didn't come up with something better. He fucking didn't just tear it up like that dumb fuck Biden did on day one and say you're on your fucking own ! You know like Joe did with a bunch of Trump administrations ideas. , Kinda like the border wall. Sorry you're on your own if some illegal piece of fucking shit car jacks you or rapes you. Busts down your fucking apartment door. Beats up cops, people walking down the street.... Yeah, why wouldn't you wanna keep illegal criminals out of your country ? I know because Trump did. That racist !! Fuck you.

Been listening/reading a lot of reactions from the election and overwhelming win by both Trump and Republicans overall... It's interesting hearing the realization from many reasonable Democrats are publicly admitting that the bottom-line failure was... they failed to listen and present solutions to the basic issues voters were most affected and concerned with... economy, immigration and crime.

Identity politics actually drove more of the minority vote away from the Dems... they failed to acknowledge that blacks, hispanics, asiians, etc... are Americans affected by the economy, immigration and crime. Most minorities don't support "Woke" ideology... don't have any interest in elevating the less than 1% of the population who claim to be "Transgender" above cultural norms and definitely don't support injecting men into women's sports and other elements of society.

In a bizarre twist... last week Trump was being portrayed by the current administration as an existential threat to democracy, fascist, nazi, hitler, etc... yesterday.... come on down to the White House and let's chat and roll out the welcome mat as if by some sort miracle magic, the evil monster transformed into just another American who won an election. That bullshit just doesn't work for me... those who perpetuated the lies to invoke fear have no business leading this nation. Send them packing, revoke all access, privilege and access to government function and let them live in shame... enough of that game.
