Who will win the 2020 US Presidential Election?
Joey Russ replied to Windsor's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
I think Trump’s chances of winning is decreasing by the day (but I still wouldn’t count him out given right now he’s instilling fear across the country). Going from the populism that works to very clear fascist tendencies doesn’t really boost your election chances now, does it? -

Well, I don’t agree with looting either. However, they have been peacefully protesting for years. They keep getting ignored. They try again, and they get ignored again. So when they felt continuously unheard and the peaceful protests hasn’t worked, what else are they supposed to do. Give up?

Well, if you think the protests are just about George Floyd you’re missing the point. This is more about the system failing them in general, and the police hurting a bunch of violent protesters sure isn’t making them stop anytime soon. George Floyd was just the spark that lead to the protests.

I’m up to 3rd in that pool after Majek Fashek

Sting had to cancel some concerts under doctor’s orders, so I figured now would be a good time to start a thread for him. There are plenty of bad puns out there for him when he goes...

The problems didn't start with Trump. The problems lead us to Trump. Because people felt like the system is broken, they voted for someone who claimed he'd look out for the American people. Now, he has used his power to frighten the American people. Trump is abysmal, but I also want to take a moment to criticize the opposition to Trump, as they did such a poor job from actually taking a stand against Trump. The thing they impeached him for was basically nothing compared to the crimes he's committing now. If the democrats actually had a backbone in them, they would've fought for meaningful change (even if McConnell would eventually block it in the senate). But they didn't. Thus, that is how the system lead to Trump. They didn't fight hard enough to push meaningful change, the American people felt it wasn't working for them, and they voted for someone who claimed he would fix the problems. And as they continue to not fight on important issues, Trump now thinks he's unstoppable. Way to go Democrats.

The video above gives an excellent analysis of what is going on and I highly recommend everybody watches this. -
Noticed that Michel Gauthier is a hit for Jiroemon in this pool but hasn't been scored yet.

But go on, say it doesn't matter until they get a trial. This is exactly the bullshit that goes on again, again, and again... -
If the enema ends up killing Lester Piggott...

Wikipedia has his death as June 1st, so unless something else comes along that’s probably the date to use for scoring

Visits the palace the first time since March. Don’t think he’s going anytime soon...

Well, football coach Pat Dye has Dyed now, giving Death Impends a very early lead against JiroemonKimura. The month is only beginning however, which means there’s plenty of time for a comeback to happen... 1. An Fear Beag vs Clorox 0 - 0 2. Death Impends vs JiroemonKimura 4 - 0

This good enough?

That cop was charged with third degree murder, which basically means “an accident”. That murder he did was no accident at all. The other three cops are equally as compliant, yet so far they have gone away free. Not to mention an attorney who’s supposed to lead the case kept making excuses on why the cops couldn’t be charged. It’s a cap off the toothpaste moment and people couldn’t deal with the bullshit anymore. The US has been screwing over people for years regardless of who’s in charge. Given this, along with not getting the economic relief they need lead to them having no choice. I’m not saying the riots are right, but you really need to understand why they’re happening. -

You’re either really being quite insulting or intentionally ignorant, and I don’t know which is worse. -

Do you know how many times the courts have completely dismissed cases even when the evidence is clear? They’ve been peacefully protesting for so many fucking years and they keep getting ignored by the system. So what else are they supposed to do: hide and get killed by the police again and again and again. Or do they finally fight back? There’s so much wrong in the US outside of Trump and if you really don’t see that I don’t know what to tell you. -

It’s not just that Floyd needed justice. What the riots are really showing is that the system has failed them. Because people feel like it doesn’t work, and many of them have lost their jobs, what else are they supposed to do. Just get beat up again, again, and again? -

Yep, clearly the thing you want to do if you want to troll by threatening to kill someone: -
Oh yeah, the final draw. None of you want to know what the final round is like. Death Impends or JiroemonKimura vs An Fear Beag or clorox
