    Harris ripped trumps little shriveled balls off and crushed them in her hands. Anyone saying otherwise is very much in denial.

    11 leaned Harris, 10 leaned Trump. And yet, 22 of them said Kamala won the debate, and only 2 of them (obviously “leans Trump”) said Trump won.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/interactive/2024/presidential-debate-voter-poll/?itid=hp-top-table-main_p001_f002

    Participants were recruited from a spring survey conducted by The Post and the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University. In the week before the debate, 12 said they would probably vote for Harris, 10 said they would probably vote for Trump, and three said they were unlikely to vote for either.

    24 isn’t a very large poll, but this is an outstanding result. I’m pretty sure 91.6% Kamala vs 8.4% Trump is outside statistical error even with such a small sample size.

    Kamala did good tonight people. Its a celebration night. But the next weeks its our job as debate watchers to meme and fuck up the Republican talking points and pain-points in their discussions.

    Remember the pain points: “I have a concept of a plan”, “Tim and I are gun owners, no one is taking your guns away”, and the fucking nonsense Donald Trump did to defend himself when he invited the literal fucking Taliban to Camp. David.

    Not everyone saw the debate. And even those who have seen the debate will have selective memory and forget about these moments. Its our job as the audience to remind people what they’re trying to hard to forget. That Donald Trump is a weak loser and Kamala put him in his place tonight.

    Depends on who you asked. I wanted to see what conservatives had to say about it, and they’re saying the exact opposite. Granted I was looking at gab.com, so take it with a grain of salt. I have no idea how representative that site is of conservatives viewpoints.

          You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know…morons.

          QR code on the screen, so yes. My take is that his supporters load up on polls like this to make it seem as if he’s won the debate.

          On the other hand, there are a lot of asshats around the area too.

            Yeah, I’d say an online poll is about as accurate a pulse of the people’s opinions as a YouTube comment section.

      Yeah, the debate was never going to make any difference for the bases of either party. But it might make a difference for moderates and independents.

      I just skimmed /r/conservative 's live thread and they are mostly talking about how unfair it was, with a few “i got a bad feeling about this” and “why are we being bigraded” posts, which is a pretty good indicator he lost imo. It’ll be 8nteresting to see what narratives they cling too once the dust settles and the astroturfers sync up.

        We need to get ahead of this. In a few short hours, maybe just a day or two, they will consolidate support around Trump again.

        Our job is to meme the best lines of Trump’s insanity as much as possible, and spread the message far and wide. Trump is easily manipulated by Kamala. Trump’s only leaders he respected tonight were Venezuela and Hungary / Orban. I dunno, I’m bad with memes. But you all get the gist.

        /r/conservative will get itself together shortly. But we need to spike the football tonight.

      I agree, but I’m glad that some big news outlets are reporting it this way. Less not-so-subtle sane-washing and acceptance of Trump, more making him look like the weak weirdo he is.

    Now it is up to Kamala and the DNC to hold their promises and keep fighting till election day.

    1. Keep campaigning in key rust-belt states.

    2. Stay on message.

    3. Pass as many executive orders to be finalized after Jan 6 2025.

    4. Keep fighting for the middle-class families and get people like Bernie Sanders and Katie Porter and Tammy Duckworth to front-run every possible middle-class campaign and draft bills for congress, house and senate.

    DO NOT GET INVOLVED IN CONTROVERSIES OR SIT BACK IDLY!

    Get Elected and then do whatever PR statement, controversy, bs etc.

    Kamala’s facial expressions when Trump started talking about immigrants eating people’s pets genuinely had me cracking up

    Those 2 undecideds that thought trump did better were just trying to get on TV and pump up their boy. You’d have to be braindead to think Trump won that train wreck last night
