RupertKBD Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 ...."but don't call Republicans stupid".... https://www.axios.com/2024/02/14/taylor-swift-conspiracy-theory-republican-party-poll Quote Roughly a third of Republicans believe in a "covert government effort" for Taylor Swift to help President Biden win the 2024 presidential race, new polling reveals. Why it matters: The conspiracy theory is one of many that Republicans embrace about nefarious "covert government efforts" related to anything from elections to criminal indictments against former President Trump. By the numbers: While nearly three-quarters of adults do not believe that a "covert government effort" exists, 18% do, according to a Monmouth University poll released Wednesday. Among the 18% of believers include 32% of Republicans, 18% of independents and 6% of Democrats. Meanwhile, the 73% of nonbelievers comprise 89% of Democrats, 72% of independents and 57% of Republicans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4petesake Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 These people give morons a bad name. So TS prefers Biden to a douchebag and says so out loud and this is a “covert government effort”? I’m guessing they don’t know the difference between covert and overt, you know like Ted Nugent openly shilling for Trump. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 There's a new theory making the rounds. (and it's coming from Republicans).... The reason Donald Trump is pushing Ronna McDaniel out of the RNC leadership and trying to install his daughter in law and an election denier from NC, is because he want's to use the RNC's coffers to pay for his legal bills: https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/politics/senior-republicans-fear-new-rnc-leadership-will-cover-trump-s-legal-bills-report/ar-BB1ik6LH?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=632ca52cfdc140d9b148f5f14e7804ed&ei=90 Quote n an article published on February 14, Politico reporters Natalie Allison, Meridith McGraw and Alex Isenstadt describe the fears of "several senior Republican officials" who worry that "Trump's expected takeover of the RNC will ultimately pave the way for the Committee to once again cover his legal bills." Interesting note about McDaniel: She used to go by Ronna Romney McDaniel, but dropped the "Romney" part during her tenure as RNC chair. If that name sounds familiar, it's because she is the niece of Mitt Romney.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Timeline of Taylor Swift’s Generosity The musician has a long history of donating her earnings. Rather than make splashy, polarizing donations to Planned Parenthood, as fellow artists Harry Styles and Lizzo have done, Swift speaks up about important policy concerns but stops short of big politicized left-leaning donations https://www.billboard.com/lists/taylor-swifts-charity-donations-gifts-timeline/october-2011-she-donates-70000-in-books-to-her-hometown-library/ Edited February 15 by The Arrogant Worms 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably wouldn't work to rile up anyone these days, but it definitely worked back then. Man, I thought we already shook that "manifest destiny" bullshit out of you guys south of the 49th... ...if we give you York and Albertastan to satisfy the "manifest destiny" stuff, will you guys give us the rest of Cascadia in return?

You've admitted before there is no proof that Trump is racist It's perception created by the media that wants him to fail, simple minded people who don't have a grasp on the real world buy into it and here we are. We are more divided than ever and it's because of progressive left race mongering and media outlets making money off clickbait whilst trying to start a race war. Fear and anger sells Racism is and always been an issue but the left has put people against each other which has actually caused even more racism, hatred and as I said, divisiveness.

There are some 46,000 nationwide currently. https://www.whitehouse.gov/invest/?utm_source=invest.gov I was trying to find what Biden’s reasoning was for saying that the bill would reduce inflationary pressures and see that there was a letter signed by 15 Nobel Prize economists claiming that to be correct. I’m not arguing that it is, just that there is some support for the claim. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21063166-nobel-prize-letter-in-support-of-biden-economic-program Thanks for the links. I'd like to see where New York will stuff our share. Our politicians in NY aren't known for their honesty or their fiscal prudence. The Buffalo Billion scandal got a fair amount of people in trouble. As for whether the bill has or will reduce inflation, we won't know for sure until the GAO is tasked with figuring it out after all of the money is spent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something the Trump enthusiasts forget about Taylor....she doesn't tell anyone who to vote for. She just tells them to vote. Her fans are smart enough to know who the better candidate is. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch until the end There are also examples of right wing racist organizations every day, everywhere. Yes, in an attempt to put a stop to a lengthy conversation I thought was going nowhere (who is more racist Trump or Biden?) I pointed out that we are not likely to find any smoking guns and should just move on. We are very divided, here and in the US. You and I seem to be very divided as to what is the cause of it all. Freeman has an interesting take. I'd like to hear what less affluent people in Oakland or Detroit say about his comments. I think you are way off base on all this. You no doubt think I'm way off base. I think your original statement was WAY over the top but I don't want to pursue it further as I suspect it would just waste our time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing with Trump is that he's so used to paying zero consequences for his actions, he literally thinks he can say and do anything he wants without paying the price.... The day he reaches the "FO" part of FAFO can't come soon enough, IMO.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
