    The 2024 Us Presidential Election Thread

    57% of Florida voters wanted abortion protected in the state constitution (so MORE than a majority) but that ran afoul of the new amendment that made the threshold 60%. Which, ironically, did not pass with 60% but got grandfathered in to hug things up in the future. Like now.

    Mine either, but we have to realize and acknowledge that’s a MASSIVE AMOUNT OF PRIVILEGE on our part. We aren’t going to bleed to death with a rotting fetus inside us. Our marriage isn’t wholly up to the whims of the Supreme Court. We aren’t going to lose access to gender-affirming hormones. We...

    Yep. His purview was looking into see if Trump colluded with Russia. He found that they did indeed collude. The job of punishing Trump for that was Congress’, not his.

    Giving Putin whatever he wants apparently. Kinda like how Chamberlin ended WWII in 1938 by appeasing Hitler. Until, you know, he kept wanting more and more and it became untenable. I do wonder how Republicans are going to operate with a Trifecta. That means “Government” is entirely on their...

    A nationwide abortion ban wouldn’t survive a filibuster. Provided they listen to Mitch and keep said Filibuster but Trump can have the FDA pull their approval of misoprostol. That coupled with the fact Doctors are too afraid to act in red states is going to kill a lot of people. Ukraine is 100%...

    Imagine how angry they’ll be when they get deported to a country they aren’t from… Like, I can understand being disinterested because someone is a white cis male. No, *their* life isn’t going to change all that much. They aren’t going to bleed out in a Hospital with a rotting fetus inside them...

    They did an incredible amount of Republican outreach and the result was a lot of the base stayed home. That’s an easy and blindingly obvious answer. They’ve snatched defeat from the jaws of victory before though.

    45% of the Country doesn’t care enough to vote. You have to reach and energize those people. You do that by championing a living wage, you do that by championing affordable healthcare, etc Then, should you manage that, you actually have to deliver. An FDR administration can last 12 years, a...

    She’s charismatic and populist. Things that Hillary (and Kamala) certainly were not. Now, it’s entirely possible you’ll have the Democratic Party do something incredibly stupid like nominating a centrist white guy (like Shapiro) and they might even win in 2028 because they’ll be running on...

    Maybe campaigning with Liz Cheney *wasn't* a good idea. Still, AOC vs. Vance in 2028 is gonna be a wipeout…

    Harris has the momentum and great fundamentals. It’s going to be a Democratic blowout.

    Adjusted for inflation which Transformers series was cheapest to produce?

    I don’t think we have any information to go on to make an assumption. Presumably the stuff Hasbro did on its own (G1, BW, BM, Prime, Rescuebots) would have cost more than the Co-productions and/or stuff Takara took the lead on (RiDv1, AEC, Cyberverse, Earthspark) I feel like Prime was probably...

    Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion ll Update: 2026 Product revealed - Combaticons, Beast Wars and more Primes

    The Comic Autobots were generally mopey Debbie Downers. Optimus bemoaned almost everything he did…and then blew himself up because he caused some fictional Sims to fall off a cliff.

    Studio Series discussion

    They should’ve bumped the Dramatic Capture price up to an even $100 and remolded Prowl his actual head so at least that would be there next time Hasbro deigns to release one.

    It’s $35 shipped on Amazon right now. Even *if* someone finds you one, once you factor in shipping you’re up close to that already. I just got one from there.

    That’s because they usually auto update it without discussion or concern. ie Tony Stark consecutively being wounded in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, etc

    Magneto and Genocide

    True! …but most of those don’t have their identity intrinsically tied to a historical event and/or already have temporal shenanigans baked into it. Ie, Steve Roger’s and his 70 year ice bath. The Thing is Jewish and he can board a rocket to cosmic rays in 1960 just as easily as he could in 2025...
