2020 US General Election Thread VIII: Cs, Ds, and Es

[Nobel Hobos 2]

How do you do, fellow kids?

Biden will make the youngsters Animal Crossing the road to the polls!

That would be voter fraud. I'm surprised you're not more distressed?

[Nobel Hobos 2]

Told my Trump supporting Cuban friend, who doesn’t really follow the news, that "Bernie Sanders says all evictions must be stopped until December and rent should be cancelled until the coronavirus pandemic ends."

To which he replied "Of course communist Bernie will do that, that is socialism, Castro also seized housing from owners, Bernie probably wants to do the same to live up to his idol"

Then I said "Just kidding, Trump said that"

He just walked away

You know Greater Miami Shores?

This strikes me a bit racist. Yeah I know you personally are a race salad, but that doesn't give you license to be racist.

Or ethnicist, or whatever. Not all Cuban Americans know each other personally.

Trump did say something like that. The President did a solid, yeah I haven't quite got over it myself.

I suppose I could quibble that the order should have applied to mid-Feb 2021, to give the new President (whoever that is) time to decide if it should be extended further, or not.

EDIT: Oh, also rent isn't exactly "cancelled" it's just payment is deferred. Legally tenants will still owe the money, and possibly with interest or penalties (as specified in their rental contract). Bernie would have done better.

Georgia likely removed nearly 200k from voter rolls wrongfully, report says

This happened after Democratic gains in the state after 2018. Just to understand the timeline of all this.

Omg, this is equivalent to calling a lightskin like me a "oreo" or "moon cricket", hell even a mutt.

Whoa whoa wait a minute. I was joking about how the guy endlessly hates bernie, praises trump and is cuban. I didn't know RFSI was Cuban.

Tbh nearly ever Cuban in Miami is a Trump worshipper right now, purely anecdotally speaking

Why?

[Aureumterra]

Tbh nearly ever Cuban in Miami is a Trump worshipper right now, purely anecdotally speaking

Why?

Fidel Castro, I assume? And the rabid hatred of communism that stems from that (which should be telling considering people praise Castro)

I wish I could say im shocked but Republicans have made it clear they dont want everyone to vote.

[Kowani]

Why?

Castro is hated among the Cuban expat community.
Trump is superficially opposed to the Cuban government which was born from Castro.

[Northern Davincia]

He's tougher on Cuba than Obama was.

[Rusozak]

Why?

Fidel Castro, I assume? And the rabid hatred of communism that stems from that (which should be telling considering people praise Castro)

I get that, but why support the people chanting "send them back" and back the candidate that probably doesn't even know the difference between a Cuban and a Mexican? Why is an ethnic minority backing the xenophobic faction?

They do have some worthwhile opinions now and then.

Theyre still having flashbacks to when the murderous American backed tyrant was overthrown by the murderous soviet backed tyrant. Even the Cuban Americans who weren't alive then.

"He isn't racist to hispanics. He just doesn't like illegal immigrants," they say about a man who called Latin America a shithole and said Mexican americans were basically Mexico's worst.

Also they hate communism that much.

That's right. Republicans, just like Democrats, don't want people to vote unless they're voting for them.

Um no. Republicans want to make it harder to vote whereas Democrats are the opposite

hmmm

Don't you know that anybody who would even consider preventing joe of the streets from being able to possess a rocket launcher or a mortar is literally worse than Hitler?

[The Black Forrest]

Biden condemns riots over George Floyd death, calls for end to 'needless destruction' - 31st May

... Calling for an end to needless destruction while encouraging people to be upset, hurt and fight the power. Seems legit to me and not at all lip service.

This will totally convince people, when those people remember the 'block party atmosphere' and peaceful protest that ended up with 5 shootings. Or the totally peaceful protestors throwing bombs.

Soooo? They should stop being upset?

Your boy likes to agitate the problem rather then solve it. Seriously dude; what good do these good ol boys citizen soldiers doing with driving around paint balling and pepper spraying?

Even your boy defended it by saying at least they weren't using bullets.

I'm shocked...shocked I say.

Um no. Republicans want to make it harder to vote whereas Democrats are the opposite

Did Democrats make it easier to vote Green this November in Wisconsin by blocking Howie Hawkins from the ballot?

Hawkins isn't on the ballot in Wisconsin?
