It really sucks that I have to mentally prepare myself for another Trump administration.

This country is fucking ridiculous.

Yup.

Getting Canadian citizenship gives me a way out, but I don’t think my (adult) kids could come with.

We will be in Canada on 12/8. Maybe we just stay?

Ha! We actually would have a place to go it’d just be a very long drive from Vancouver. It’s sad that it’s something that while still feeling outlandish, yet doesn’t at the same time.

I'm here now...it is tempting to never come back.

Sorry if this has been said, but wasn't Trump (on some songs) asking for music to be played that we all know the artists have asked not to be played st his rallies.

I think I have read that Sinead O'Conner, the village people, the cranberries and U2 to name a few (he is obviously not a fan of the arts in Irelans) have insisted in the past that he does not use their music. Is there anywsy he is trying to show that he will do what he wants and not be told by musicans what to do (even if this is in his head, in his head...).

He was, including O'Connor. Many of the artists (or their rights holders, for lack of a better term I can think of now) have even sent cease and desist letters.

Why is this seemingly unenforceable? Is every sound person both an independent contractor required to play whatever is asked and it’s not right to go after them?

I wonder if anyone has pushed this legally beyond the cease and desist letter. Theoretically a copyright owner could get an injunction. Otherwise the damages caused by this type of infringement would be pretty minimal.

I think they should file a lawsuit every time he uses any song and bury under legal work. Like he used to do to little guys he wanted squashed.

This is apparently from 2019. Sorry guys.



This looks like someone having to do a PSA for community service while they serve their time.

[Shirley]

I just think it's funny that I saw them play YMCA and then Hallelujah back-to-back. A song by gay men about hanging out and hooking up with other men and then a song about sex/orgasms/disappointment/s&m (depending on which interpretations you prefer).

Are you sure that's not a video from when he was president?

No, I'm not. That does make sense with the background, though, looking official. I guess I'm just a disinformation machine.

The problem with that approach is that they won't bury Trump under legal work. They'll just make work for Trump lawyers.

Well yeah. Though I imagine he's probably one of the world's leading legal scholars, the onus does fall on his lawyers. who are dwindling and like to be paid.

I'm convinced he hasn't had a new thought since 1989.

At this point, I assume they're getting big retainers out of the RNC cash. Since it isn't his money, Trump won't care.

Even better. Make it so there is no money left over for state and local elections.

I’d love to see the RNC wasting money defending copyright claims instead of campaign funds for Congressional races.

[Steve of phpBB]

I thought this was already happening.

Isn't the RNC money officially jointly controlled by the RNC and Trump? How much is Trump willing to spend on races that aren't his?

[DaveInSeattle]

The RNC is Trump now. Lara Trump is the RNC co-chair.

[L-Jam3]

I feel like this is a good omen.

So yesterday was the first day of early voting in Georgia (much to the chagrin of the Republicans who want to take Black Americans' right to vote away). Previously, the largest first-day was 2020 with 136K. Yesterday it was over 340K. Here are the omens I want to point out:

Race:
Whites: 208K
Blacks: 112K

Gender:
Women: 198K (54.6%)
Men: 166K (45.5%)

I see those are some pretty encouraging signs, especially considering it's Georgia.

This is going viral right now:

I thought that was well done except I'm not sure why Dolly had to catch a couple of strays.

Dolly is a goddess. But, like Trump, she wears a lot of makeup, is old, and has weird hair and big tits.

You didn't need to add anything after the first sentence! Why would you? The tits part was funny though.

The First Amendment sucks so bad sometimes.

It takes a lot of funny to post this cheap.

[Johnnie]

And yet he could still become president...



Maybe this is a good sign?



I don't even know anymore.

[Johnnie]

[L-Jam3]

I’m personally looking at that 1.1 million + of early voting in Georgia as a good sign. I really think this is going to be a wipeout. Republicans tend to do better when the turnout is low; that’s the secondary reason they try to suppress the vote as much as they do. (Stopping Black Americans from voting is obviously the primary reason.)

[HaulCitgo]

Wouldn't read too much until you have a feel for turnout on the Republican side. Probably line length on election day in red exurbs.

Lots of effort to turn out black votes on Oct 15 and early. 8-10 different speakers at church and at least 6 made a big deal of voting when it opened on 15th. More important to see if they can turn out infrequent Obama era dem voters. Not sure we have any idea about that and I don't feel any of that sort of groundswell locally. That said Trump voters are also less energized. Much much fewer signs and bumper stickers and hats. Id guess this is not a high turnout election but that dem enthusiasm is higher than Republican enthusiasm. Not enough to win Georgia because that requires waves of black folks and young folks which I'm not seeing but enough to carry states where the demographics are friendlier and that's all she needs. Walz states.

[The Sybian]

My concern is the big gains in black vote Trump is seeing

Too bad his opponent is Indian and not Black.

[DaveInSeattle]

Oh...just a Presidential Candidate talking about the size of Arnold Palmer's hog...

[mister d]

Just imagine Kamala Harris talking at a rally about Flo-Jo’s perfect vagina.

The man was sporting a par 5, let’s give him some respect
