GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Biden says it’s ‘time to outlaw’ AR-15 after Trump assassination attempt29·11 months agoMaybe look a little outside the US? Other Western countries are far, far safer and have much less gun violence with less weapons in circulation. The difference is the easy access to weapons.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Biden says it’s ‘time to outlaw’ AR-15 after Trump assassination attempt32·11 months agoThere are people in this country who love their ARs more than they love their family. Sounds like an exaggeration. I wish it was an exaggeration. It’s not.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Marjorie Taylor Greene and other Republicans attack transgender rights on RNC opening night1·11 months agoSo, water is wet? No surprise here…
I think the idea with Vance is to display a youthful side in contrast to Trump, especially since age has been a topic in the campaign on both sides. But it’s just tiresome to watch the same ol’ white men being worshipped at the polls.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Pete Buttigieg is not gay, according to disgraced former Fox News host2·11 months agoWhat’s with all the obsession about how other people choose to live their lives. These political types are just trying desperately to find something to be offended about constantly. Absurd.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Trump documents case dismissed by federal judge1·11 months agoI’m not. The media outlets are full of strategies for a new Trump term. Probably because of recent events. It may moderate eventually, but right now it’s all about Trump in the US coverage.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Trump documents case dismissed by federal judge31·11 months agoI didn’t say anything about what the polls say or don’t say. I just said that the Europeans are preparing for a Trump presidency and Biden’s stock is quickly devaluing there. That’s all.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Trump documents case dismissed by federal judge15·11 months agoI’ve been reading European news outlets for the past few days. They don’t even acknowledge Biden anymore. He’s barely mentioned. Everyone is debating and discussing how to deal with the next Trump term. The assassination attempt has really confirmed to them that Trump will 100 percent be the next president. Felonies and all.
So, the GOP is running with two white men again? We’ll, color me surprised…
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Republicans Try to Blame Democrats, the Media, CRT for Shooting6·11 months agoOr space lasers. Oh, wait…that was the Jewish.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•IRS Has Collected Over $1B From Wealthy Tax Cheats, Thanks to New Funding2·11 months agoMaybe not like kings and queens, but it would certainly help create equality. Having lived in several European countries for many years, it’s quite unreal to see the enormous inequality in the US being mostly defended by the people who would benefit the most from its dismantling.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Clarence Thomas Took Free Yacht Trip to Russia, Chopper Flight to Putin’s Hometown: Dems2·1 year agoActually, the part of the electorate that benefits from his decisions does find it totally fine. Zero integrity.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•If you think Project 2025 is scary, take a look at Donald Trump's Agenda 4733·1 year agoIt’s a fact that Democrats and progressives don’t show up as consistently to vote as conservatives. It’s just not part of the culture like it is for conservatives.
Trump is a convicted felon and it does not make a difference for his voters. Biden has a bad debate and Democrats are fleeing left and right. That’s how you lose elections.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•If you think Project 2025 is scary, take a look at Donald Trump's Agenda 47110·1 year agoSure, but Democrats seem very easy to discourage into not voting compared to conservatives.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•If you think Project 2025 is scary, take a look at Donald Trump's Agenda 47926·1 year agoUnfortunately, it looks like Trump is headed for a landslide unless something significant happens within the next few weeks. Buckle up!
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•A defiant Biden, in denial of the polls and calls to step aside: 3 takeaways from the ABC interview21·1 year agoI think his biggest issue is that he can come off as too “California.” Some people see that as elitist.
If that is indeed his biggest issue, then I think he’d be a great president. Very small issue compared to what Trump is carrying around and none of his voters seem to care.

GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•With Attention on Presidential Contest, GOP Goes on Austerity Rampage43·1 year agoGiven the fact that a large part of the American population is dumber than a bag of rocks, probably not much. But there’s plenty of time to teach.
Then again, I don’t think it makes much of a difference. People made up their minds on Biden vs Trump a long time ago and they are in their trenches. The US is truly in a sad state, and it’s quite embarrassing when I talk to family members and friends overseas.
GiddyGap@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•With Attention on Presidential Contest, GOP Goes on Austerity Rampage145·1 year agoThere’s plenty of time to build up someone else. Plenty.
I’d be a more excited to vote for Josh Shapiro or Michelle Obama or Gretchen Whitmer or Gavin Newsom or some other good candidate, but I’d vote for Joe Biden any day of the week.
And way, way lower gun ownership rates compared to the US. Plus very strict rules for owning a weapon, such as storage.
