US Election 2020

Yet somehow ALL Aussies vote in every election even down to local anywhere they are in the world.

And we have compulsory voting, unlike most of the "democratic" world...

Which doesn't mean you have to vote for any candidate if you think all of them are hopeless - just scrawl "fuck off politicians" over your secret ballot (that you send in, or in state or federal elections, get at the polling booth) and your vote is not counted...

And you have sausage sizzle IIRC.

Now, I know that the results of Victorian council elections are not exactly earth-shattering stuff, but the principle is the same...

Edwardian councils are the best councils.

Trump should have stayed in hospital:

Moderator Savannah Guthrie hailed for keeping Trump in check at town hall

Today show co-host pressed president on debts, coronavirus and QAnon without letting president dominate

Donald Trump’s floundering performance during Thursday’s NBC town hall left many feeling there was only one winner from the event – Trump’s interviewer, Savannah Guthrie.

Guthrie, a co-host of NBC’s Today morning show, repeatedly got the better of Trump as she pressed the president on his debts, his actions on coronavirus, and the dangerous rightwing conspiracy theory QAnon.

Trump was at times clearly uncomfortable, and his campaign attacked Guthrie less than an hour after the event finished, suggesting Guthrie had filled the role of “Joe Biden surrogate”.

The criticism from the Trump campaign only served to prove that this was a nightmare scenario for the president, who has restricted himself to rightwing media in recent weeks.

In Guthrie, Trump met someone who not only fact-checked him in real time, but at times pushed back on his usually unchallenged rhetoric.

I'm disappointed in Biden.
He should've proudly announced that he would pack the Supreme Court with baby-eating, atheist, librul communisks.

[pErvinalia]

He's going to put Antifa in there.

[Brian Peacock]

I'm half way to becoming a fully-fledge official member of Antifa. Just got to pass the medical, get the tattoo, have my hair dyed purple, and get over 80% in the milkshake exam.

so it's Mister Rogers vs Crazy Uncle Moron? oh my god how the fuck will I ever decide which one to choose?

Almost none of the Biden pussygrabbing or Hunter Biden stories went anywhere. But Republicans will keep at it. Matt has his own problems. Daddy saved him from drunken driver charges. Assumed office 2017 when all those Trumpists decided to vote, 2016.

It's a stupid game to play. Gaetz thinks you're an idiot.
