How about the Chinese fuck spamming the site?

I g n o r e -works well for spammers.

I don't want to ignore anyone. I know this site isn't monetized but it could be in the future. It would be a good bet to get rid of this person. Ohomen will respond from time to time. This Chinese guy doesn't. And posts 5-6 times a day.

Ignore is kinda like auto sort function in inbasket/email. You can always shut it off but it saves time and reduces annoyances.

Your average American that stumbles on this site though and see Chinese writing is going to run. Racist or whatever, it's fact. Don't need/want an echo chamber, but it would be nice to get some more regular commenters. I feel like 90% of you guys are "online family" at this point. Would be nice to have more kids so to speak. The format the guy posts in doesn't work and will turn people away and doesn't comment/respond.

Perhaps there should be a rule, making English the official Patnet language and limiting use of other language except if there is no English word available to express an idea. Like baizou.

I am with you guys as to who should win this. But I also think they will cheat like they’ve never cheated before, the establishment bureaucracy that is. I think they want to put us all in our place for thinking that we have a choice and wanting to get legitimate Constitutional Republic government back in place.

To add to it, this explains a bit about what my thoughts are: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/six-days-sunday-and-continuity-government-last-refuge

Trump and Republican sweep.

Republicans 55 Senate seats, 235+ house seats

I live in a split suburb of Los Angeles. During the city council races a couple years ago the lefty had signs everywhere and I do mean everywhere along with the retarded “we believe in science” and other similar non contextual nonsense.

There’s one Harris Walz sign. One. There’s about ten Trump signs.

Signs are relatively important when it comes to Trump. I could be wrong, but you take a massive risk putting that in your yard. Or at least to. That's how unliked Kamala is. That's why I think it's a landslide.

Even in Maryland Trump sings wildly outnumber Harris signs, and there are way more Trump signs, and in more suburban and urban locations.

I've noticed the same. My town is technically Trump country, but extremely different than 2016 and 2020. But even driving around the suburbs I'm not seeing Harris signs. 10:1 ratio in suburbs that are typically hard blue. I don't think anyone likes her.

Trump but not by a landslide. It's gonna be close mostly because swing states are too close to call.

277 to 271.

Trump claims PA and an electoral college win.

Dems allege inconsistencies and / or voter suppression and sue to try and overturn the results.

Just like in 2016 anyone voting R will show up in mass to counteract the impact of the blue cities.

The divide in this country is, more than anything Urban vs. Rural and those who produce vs those who take.

Economy being more important than anything else: illegals, guns, abortion .. all play second fiddle to peoples pocket books.

Trump will win like in 2020. And also like in 2020, the election will be stolen.

First, a disclaimer; I don't like Karl Rove and I never did. He's a Bushie and a forever Trump hater and that's what makes this prediction have a little more credibility because Rove would probably choose Harris over Trump.

“Race Is Over”: Karl Rove Breaks Down a Scenario Where Trump Would Only Need Either Georgia, Michigan, or Pennsylvania to Win

See video here:

https://thelibertydaily.com/race-is-karl-rove-breaks-down-scenario-where/

They will go full bore ahead with election fraud as before, because if they can't win, they hope to start another civil war. Their goal is the destruction of the Republic, the Constitution, and, of course, igniting WWIII. Their charter is psychopathic demonology.

Best we can hope for is that the Trump team has a viable counter strategy.

I predict Trump will win; I predict there will be massive cheating by the scumbag democrats.
In almost a month in ultra liberal Santa Cruz, California, I only saw about 8 Harris signs and two bumper stickers from Westside Santa Cruz to Capitola to Aptos.
If nobody liked Kamala during the primary, why would they suddenly like her now?
I'm going to be the most obnoxious asshole if Trump wins; on Facebook I will offer a free bottle of tequila to the losers to help them wash away their liberal tears.

https://sashastone.substack.com/p/reader-question-what-happened-in

Young folks like Adin Ross and others understand that our government hunted Trump like an animal. They became invested in the story of this guy the government kept indicting and trying to put him in jail. And, of course, then he was shot, and that sent him into the stratosphere.

Despite how hard they tried, they could not make the young ones hate Trump. It’s the Hero’s Journey. And that will always be hard to resist.

I think people are tired of the one long winter by the Democrats. It’s just a bummer world. I think Americans are tired of it by now. They just want out.

The Democrats had four years to show us they could make the country all they promised — better than Trump. But they didn’t. For some of them, for many of them, it’s fine. They like having absolute control. But look around. The movies suck. The comedy sucks. Nothing is fun anymore, and people don’t want to have everything they say and think judged.

Patrick says

I think it will be Trump by a landslide unless they turn the cheating up to 11 this time.

Even the mildly retarded can see that Kamala is an incompetent diversity hire who should be nowhere near any real power.

It's also glaringly obvious in the grocery stores that the current Biden-Harris administration fucked over the poor especially.

This 1000%. In a fair election, Trump would annihilate Kamala. It's now a matter of the fraud factor and if they can continue to get away with it. Just watch in the days after Election Day.

If people vote the economy then Harris should win by a landslide. My net worth is almost 3x what it was in 2020. Inflation is a non issue for anyone invested in tech stocks the past 4 years. NVDA, META, CVNA, NFLX…. If you got some exposure to these stocks the past years or even just a tech ETF fund, own a home, and kept your job…. Who should be the majority of people … you are guaranteed to have doubled your net worth at minimum.

The only way Trump wins is if people are angry enough at social trans rights and were personally affected by crime to vote against their own pocketbooks.

Trump and Fox News continue to try to gaslight everyone that the economy is bad. It’s just a fact that anybody with a financial IQ above mildly retarded, who kept a job, lived within their means, owns a home and invested in tech stocks the past 4 years should be swimming in cash and planning early retirement.

Even people who went balls deep on Bitcoin as a hedge against Biden inflation are up dramatically. It’s actually hard to not be much wealthier in 2024 vs 2020…

Is that a winning strategy? “If you’re poor, you’re stupid. Vote Harris!”

What about the bottom ~60% that don't own a home, did not invest in tech stocks AND are not swimming in cash ?

.

My predictions: Trump will surprise with some states much closer than anticipated, hopefully overwhelming Harris’ ground game. She’ll stuff ballots (no postmark needed in NV 🙄), bring illegals to vote (happening in PA), and so on.

If her numbers are as bad as they seem though, they’ll activate the shock troops - the antifa types that respond to the nazi/Hitler/MSG bs with credulity and fear. I think that’s the main purpose of the recent “nazi nazi” messaging: a siren call to the loonies to “bash the fash.” This works as well if the Harris campaign cheats and Trump supporters protest it. Go oppose “those nazis.”

Also the real value of all the increases in the housing and stock market are from inflation. If you sold your inflated house for another there is no gain. Wages have not kept up with inflation. All of my assets have doubled, so what it's not like I'm selling anything. My income has went up a lot since 2020 but it increased as fast as everything else.
Younger people that haven't had the chance to build up assets like most of us on here. They are being fucked over and priced out, what are they going to do just wait around for us all to die. My children's generation has been looted.

I think this is propaganda bullshit designed to 'scare' other Mockingbird media into the knee jerk endorsement of the KamalaToe train wreck. How would they possibly be able to count and know this so soon? It's impossible, just another lie/assertion fallacy added to the stack.

Correct, that's why one needs to keep investing.The boomers looted most of it, some bragging about their 7th bionic knee surgery without paying a dime on Medicare at my local gym. The youth goes left because they can't see the real cause of their financial pillage. But when leftoid Marxism will make it only worse for them, they'll steer hard right. It's starting to happen in other countries as well. Fire the globalist boomfucks!

Maybe just mug them of their assets and toss them in the gutter humanely. Might find a lot less there than expected.

Nonsense. Your whole premise is that high inflation is great. Inflation benefits from those with first access to the money (the very rich) while everyone else takes it in the shorts. So what if someone's house "value" increases their paper net worth? That is not spendable money and causes true out of pocket expenses to increase such as property tax. Plus, when one sells and moves, the replacement house also has an inflated value along with higher commissions and transaction costs. People who do not own homes will see their rents increase. As for stock ownership, the top 10% own about 90% of the stocks. The middle income tend to own stocks in 401Ks and the like, while the lower class hardly own stocks at all. As far as you saying people should have invested in tech stocks, well that is easy to say after the fact. Why did you not invest in Future Fuels (FF)? After all, you could have bought it for sixty cents a share in early 2024, and it is worth over $6 today.

It must be extremely rare for someone's net worth to "triple" just because of Biden-Harris high inflation. I am one of those who should have "benefited" from inflation - I own a paid for house that inflated to $1million, I have over $1million in laddered CDs that saw the rates climb from just below 1% to around 5%, and I have over $1.5 million in stocks (some tech like Apple and Micron, some not, though all pay dividends). My net worth did not triple. It took me several decades to accumulate my net worth, and I do not want to see the value of my savings inflated away. Even more so, I want a stable economy so that the next generation can acquire wealth. Without a stable economy, it will be a war between old folks like me who were able to accumulate assets when those assets were affordable, and the young who cannot afford to save because high inflation eats all their earnings.

Did your California house triple in "value?"

This here is a perfect example of those clueless about how Working Class America lives. Like when Queen Antionette supposedly said, "Let them eat cake" about the peasants getting upset because that is what she would do whenever she got upset.

@LAOwner0000 is either deliberately trolling...or like Queen Antoinette, is genuinely in such a bubble as to be utterly clueless as per the above.

Earth to @LAOwner0000. Earth to @LAOwner0000. Ummmm...what was the ultimate fate of Queen Antionette and all the other Bubble Dwellers of her time?

Ludicrous election year assertion fallacy from a bot? I have all of those things and my after inflation remainders, even with the recent artificial stock market goosings and increases, have a real spending power of at least 25 percent less, maybe more, since Biden Actor et alia. Pretty steep inflation taxation to support DC sending bales of money to Ukraine etc. just to launder back to Congress while infrastructure crumbles in USA. Everything foreign occupied DC does now, no matter what virtue signaling garbage they call it, is money laundering by another name.

My older usually liberal friend noticed that his spending power dropped from his pensions and social security. It doesn't hurt until it's in your front yard, then wham. You can only have the delusions you can afford, and he seems to be deciding he can't afford the delusions any more.
He has been amenable to being talked off the LibbyFuck ledge.

That won't be necessary, just reform medicare and let them pay their fair share. You should get paid out what you paid in, inflation adjusted, no other "guaranteed" gains or coverages. Maybe remove the taxes on it for those who take a lumpsum and manage their own care. Less govt at work the better. Also wtf is this glp1 for all bs, same for statins and diabetes. Favor lifestyle changes over paying for costly drugs which don't work. There are some truly great drugs out there and a lot of innovation, but they get buried by BP selling their shit backed by govt.

Lol, the contradiction is right there. First, you're proud of inflation driving up the nominal price of financial assets, then you say inflation is not an issue.

It's definitely an issue for the large majority of people. They are being badly hurt by Bidenflation and it's obvious to them every single day:

I was I my 20s in Los Angeles, when housing was bubbling up to 2007 heights. I was on Patrick.net in the bubble run making $40k a year thinking I would never own a home. It’s all cyclical. Guess what, I kept working, kept saving/investing, lived with roommates, the market crashed and I got on the ladder. I guess a vote for Trump is just a vote for deeper harder crash in my opinion. (You guys realize that’s the only way for inflation to get under control…. Lots of asset drops, job losses, and pain…. Trump isn’t going to have a fun presidency if he accomplishes his goal of lower inflation.). I understand, but what I’m saying is anyone that is “on the ladder” probably would prefer not to fall hard. I think democrats are better at kicking the can…. And figuring it out down the line. Trumps policy will speed up the chaos after maybe a short lived 2 year bull run like last time. Whatever, I don’t care anymore, I’ll figure it out, I’m a white male with a sizable net worth, living well below my means… I’ll be fine either way. I laugh at all the feuding over the social issues nonsense and ignore it.
