Hmm, what I said was a prediction, not an argument.
Do you also predict that if they continue with the gun charges against Hunter Biden that it will help Joe win?

If someone with the power of a former President of the United States, and the means of a billionaire can be railroaded by a lowly state DA, and can’t get a fair trial even when one of the jurors gets the majority of their “news” from the social media company that the defendant owns… then we might as well empty all of the prisons. There is no such thing as law and order. Let all of the Republican murderers and pedophiles free, because how can we possibly believe they received a fair trial?

What a terrifying world it must be when you're MAGA. Truly terrifying.
Ah but it isn't just some lowly state DA. Bragg had the full backing of the Elite in order to keep the redeemer down. And I mean, come on, you think the Lizard People can't get dirt on one juror?

I don't know if there's a parody equivalent of the uncanny valley, but I feel like you've landed there.

It helps when most of the conspiracy theorists already read like early A.I. responses generated to outrage-bait reactions and clicks.

At this points his supporters seem so thoroughly entrenched that I'm left to believe he could actually shoot someone in broad daylight and not dip too far because of it.
Many people do in fact rob and shoot people in Soros funded DA districts around the country and are not prosecuted for it. Or if they are as in the case of OJ, they are acquitted by a jury of their peers. But yes, American justice is blind and without prejudice or partisan politics. The point is that while many Democrats now admit that OJ was in fact guilty, there lies of his innocence and use of the race card got them what they wanted in the moment. They're never held accountable for it, so they just keep doing it. 59 CIA officials lied or at the very least grossly purposely misled the public in saying that the Hunter Biden laptop was likely Russian disinformation. Years later they did admit that the laptop was real but their lie served it's purpose in the moment (which was getting their corrupt candidate elected), then they get to say years later, "Oh yeah, we always said the laptop was real," so you have no reason to distrust our statements.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

I just read an article from last fall about how most women won't date Trump supporters or guys who listen to Joe Rogan. The Washington Post made the argument that this threatens the institution of marriage in the US, and that some kind of attitude shift is needed.

I agree, except the attitude shift has to come from men, not women. They're the ones dumb enough to think Trump's great. When you compare male and female support for Trump, men dominate that stat. Knowing that, it's pretty hard to make the case that men are generally smarter than women. Women are clearly more aware and emotionally intelligent on average. Doesn't really seem close.

I don't find this the least bit surprising. Trump's a crook (not to mention dumb as a rock). Only dumb women want a "bad boy." I have a hard time imagining women looking at his sons and thinking, "Oooo, I want a baby Eric or Don Jr. of my own!"

Some people are most interested in power and wealth, or at least the appearance of such. These people are more likely to support Trump, I would wager.

And yet Trump has never been without a beautiful woman on his arm. Why is that?
