Never underestimate a good buzz.

I never do...

but I laughed at what a comedian said the average marijuana user probably isn't the most motivated voter, they can't decide who to order from Uber Eats or DoorDash, and fall asleep trying to pick what to watch on Netflix

Yeah, just try to take away something they want/need/enjoy and see how motivated they become.

For the life of me pal

I'm not a 'pal'. Guys call each other 'pal'. I'm a girl. Jut FYI.

i honestly can't see why the lady being both black and Indian is any sort of issue other than that of the racial sorts.

It's just a conversation. She claims to be black. But she's not.
She's trying to get the black vote by being one of them.
It's just a thing to talk about on a boring Tuesday morning.

Do the polls agree with you?

I'm all in for legalizing weed, just treat like it alcohol. Tax it and don't smoke and drive. But younger people will focus on that and vote for whomever is for it. You know as well as I do that young people are easily swayed by such promises and lose track of the big picture.. They constantly complain about the cost of living, but they're all good as long as they can get high.

Well, luckily for the Red states a lot of them are de criminalizing it and the ones that won't are not in any danger of being Blue after this. As a Libertarian, I am not sure who to be happy for here.

Look at the way Trump speaks and acts in that video compared to now.

I dont mean what he's says, but the way he is saying it.

Then tell me the man in question is still the same fellow on the ball?

It's apparent.

That's not what I am asking, you are very excited by the prospect of a socialist America, and I'm asking you personally what makes that exciting for you? This question isn't about what America decides for itself it's a direct question to you.

They didn't waste any time updating Wikipedia.

Wiki

Timothy James Walz (/wɔːlz/ WAWLZ; born April 6, 1964) is an American politician, former U.S. Army non-commissioned officer, and retired educator who has served as the 41st governor of Minnesota since 2019.A member of the Democratic Party, he is its presumptive nominee for vice president in the 2024 United States presidential election.

Trump is MUCH older than he was in 2016 when he ran then.
He walks older. He looks older. He speaks older.
His hair is gone gray and thin and, honestly, yukky
like old people get.

I don't think he has dementia or Parkinsons like BIden does.
But Trump is too old to be in the office of POTUS.

At 60, Kamala isn't a spring chicken.
But she appears to be young and perky because everyone
got desensitized to everything with an elderly Biden.

There should be an age cut off for POTUS, VPOTUS, Congress,
Senate, Judiciary ... I'd take a guess at age 70. But that
could be determined later. But obviously there needs to
be one.

Well if your family comes from Jamaica where the indigenous population was eventually exterminated and repopulated by slaves brought from Africa. Then sure!

Jamaica was settled by the Spanish in 1510 and the indigenous Taino people were forced into slavery and eventually exterminated. In the early years of the 16th century the practice of importing slaves from West Africa to work in Jamaica began.

Some of which escaped into the hills in 1655 and fiercely fought against slavery for the next 200 years.

It was not intended as a slur FlyersFan, greatest respect for you, and i know your sex by now Mrs.

Where I'm from, everyone can be your pal.

Did not mean to offend all the same.

Just seem to me and given her mixed heritage if Kamala Harris is black its not a problem or in any way untrue.

Trump already got the white supremacist and Christian nationalist votes in the bag.

Why is it any wonder Kamalas going after the other side?

She refuses to answer if she's an American or not.
Considering her severe lack of understanding of civics and American law,
I'd say she's not. She refuses to say.
She campaigns for more abortions for Americans and campaigns
for the far left here ... but I dont' think she even lives here.

Kinda weird.

Well Trump's now shouting about how Kamala Harris wants to ban Christmas and cows underpass61.

Which i think you may find is somewhat of a falsehood in spades.

Then there is the she's not really black she Indian nonsense.

Why lie indeed?

Could it be to pander and play to a certain audience?

Well she did say those exact words..

"it is bad to tell them Merry Christmas" and I quoted her. The whole quote speaks for itself as to the reason she said it.

A large part of his base would not like Trump to decriminalise marijuana.

They were simply brought up and taught grass was the demon.

Drugs won the war.

Just legalize it and make it like alcohol.

Libertarians to damn hung up on it. Went to local meetings and it was all they were focused on while or Liberty is being decimated by authoritarianism on both sides. I don’t use it, never have, never will - and don’t care about it. I feel about it as I do about alcohol.

Hope Trump wins.

I hate both D&R and this is last time I vote anything but 3rd party. Screw both sides.

I am not excited about anything with this farce of picking a President to hold one of the most important positions in the world.

Not taken as such.
Here only guys call each other 'pal' so I thought you didn't know.
Just having a conversation ...

Trump already got the white supremacist and Christian nationalist votes in the bag.

True.

a reply to: Justoneman

Right. Let each state decide on Marijuana, as is done with abortion.

Agreed

Waltz is 10 times smarter than Kamala. She will get mad at him a lot.

Agreed, again.

… but that’s an awfully low bar. I mean, 3 year olds would be smarter … I have 3 year old for direct comparison.

a reply to: FlyersFan

So is it kinda weird when other members from other countries also comment on American politics? Weird is as weird does...FF.

This guy looks like HRC's pick Caine. He is the standard old white man DNC VP.
