This is phone banking. It's a bit scary to contemplate and to get started, especially for introverts and some neurodivergents. But if you can get yourself started, it's actually a lot of fun. You're calling democrats or undecideds, no MAGAs.Most folks want to hear from you. There's a lot of support for you. At the end of the day, your call def makes a difference between whether or not someone votes for Harris or whoever you're calling for. Your call can help get Cruz out of Congress.
Fake. There's no way a true Minnesotan could end a phone conversation in anything less than an hour. He'd get through like2, maybe 3 people in one session at best.
Not hard to imagine. But trying to imagine what he might say is the harder part.
"Your name is Rachel? Oh that's a lovely name. I know many Rachels. I know some Raquels too! Rachel, Raquel, it's all the same. Listen, you gotta vote for me because I know what I'm doing. I did it before, & I'll do it all again. But better! You get with your friends, Raquel, & you let them know that we got this in the bag. And they'll tell their friends, & then their friends tell them. We'll get all the Raquels."
He told me— he had tears in his eyes— he said Mr. Trump, you have the most beautiful voice, people say that all the time, he said Mr. Trump, this is true, he said you have to save America he was saying I have to take over because I have to save the country... heblurbedepp said immigrants stole his dog and he’d never leave my rally early!
yeah honestly vance would be WORSE. trump cab talk. hes old as fuck but he had charisma. he said nothing and is a moron, but he would just sound like trump if he phone banked. If JD Vance Phone banked, oh man i would pay to see that, itd be like when he ordered donuts but i suspect significantly weirder. Honestly instead of a VP debate, have them on stage and then the debate team calls random undecided voters and each one has like 3 minutes to pitch their side and a rebuttal...
Alternatively just lock JD Vance in a room with a couch and Tim Wals alone in a room with a care engine that needs fixing. If Vance fucks the couch before Tim starts tinkering with the engine, Vance loses, but if Vance can hold of fucking the couch INCLUDING dry humping mind you before Tim starts working on the car engine then he wins. The couch loses in all scenarios.
We were on vacation 15 yrs or so ago in Ireland & I was w my aunt & uncle who live in Dublin having lunch at a cafe outside. This guy came up to my aunt & uncle & they were apparently friends & they talked for awhile but then he left. My aunt then pointed out he was the prior VP of Ireland. (That office has a different name over there but comparable to our VP.) We commented on how Dick Cheney would never walk about like that. It blew us away that she knew him &was apparently a close friend.
Ireland DOES have a President, but it's more of a ceremonial office. The Prime Minister is called the Taoiseach (TEE-shukh) and the Deputy Prime Minister is called the Tánaiste (TAWN-ish-tah).
Tim Walz comes across as a real person. All you have to do is look at his hair here then compare it to the convicted felons. He's older and a bit bald...and he doesn't try to hide it. The Orange Mussolini has that weird combover thing that he's afraid to get wet..
I don't think you meant Walz was older than Trump, just a older gentleman, but it was a confusing sentence. For clarity, Walz is 18 years younger than Trump. Harris could serve 2 terms, then Walz could serve 2 terms and he'd STILL be younger than Trump is now. :D And we could have a much better time if that happens too.
I like him, a lot, from what I've seen I frankly wish the ticket was reversed because I think this man could make a major difference as president and I'm worried he won't get the chance in 4 or 8 years due to age.
Dont think it isnt PR though. Trustworthy and simple man is a look if you desire. There isnt much thing that isnt perfectly tailored and thought about when it is about the presidency of the biggest threatening power on our solar system after the sun himself.
But he would also tell you that the beer is for after the deck is done. He'll even have lawn chairs so everyone can take breaks as needed to get the deck done safely yet efficiently.
The funny part is, when you don't, you look even more like a joke than any receding hairline could accomplish. I swore I'd start shaving my head when I saw a family members boss hop in the ocean, and then his comb over hung over his shoulder like a straggly, drowned rat. Was just like, "There is nothing about that look that in any way is complimentary."
Noticed my hair receding more in my late twenties, and been buzzing it ever fuckin' since.
Trump says whatever he thinks will benefit him. Lies and deceit are not a problem for him, on the contrary, he uses them as he pleases. Therefore, none of what he says can be considered honest or sincere. Moreover, there have been more than enough occasions where he has openly displayed his racism.
Ah yes. Nothing better than some tenth-rate tiktok to try and erase... *checks notes*... decades of racism. Donald is so racist that the fucking Nixon administration brought him and his dad to court because they refused to rent apartments to black families.
I don’t have TikTok, and don’t want it. All I saw was a black dude and the caption the moment I stopped believing Trump was racist. Thats all I needed to see.
Do you think it's possible for someone to change?Since the 70s he has done the total opposite of what a racist does. The proof is right there. You don't have to believe it, but you can't deny that he has helped
The records go back to the 70s, they did not stop there. From marking black residents files with a 'C' for colored and driving them out of his properties to refusing to hire black dealers at his casino to refusing to reject the endorsement of the leader of the KKK until there was backlash to telling American born black senators to 'go back to where they came from' while president, there has been absolutely nothing indicating that he has changed.

I'm looking forward to him debating Vance. The difference between the two is going to be striking. Vance might lose worse than Trump did vs Harris.

Trumps racism has been a matter of court records since the 1970s.
A belated qualifier on a speech he gave does not erase that.

Do you think it's possible for someone to change?Since the 70s he has done the total opposite of what a racist does. The proof is right there. You don't have to believe it, but you can't deny that he has helped

How, pray tell, do you think he has helped?
