Democrat Hillary Clinton leads Republican Donald Trump in some of the most diverse battleground states – including by double digits in two of them – according to four brand-new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist polls.

I get suckered too, just not as much as you.

Please just answer this. I don't need a rant.

WookieMan says

pick 3 policies that TRUMP has enacted that have influenced YOUR personal life in any way. NOT emotionally either.

HEYYOU says

Republicans raised my taxes. I've written the check.

Trump or Republicans? You must live in a high SALT state. Maybe blame the local dems for that? Very few people received a tax increase.

HEYYOU says

My slime Republican county raised my property taxes. I've written the check.

Nothing to do with Trump, but okay. Your focus should be here honestly. You local government will fuck you over much more than the federal government can.

HEYYOU says

God Damn slime,scum,trash Republicans raised my taxes.

I'm not sure where you live. Government likes their money. This has nothing to do with party. You seem hung up on it though. Do something about it. Run for something.

So you now support the Trump tariffs? Bring manufacturing back to places with real environmental laws.

The Russian sub escorting the nuclear submarine responded with a Balkan 2000 torpedo and scuttled the US vessel.

Horse shit.

OccasionalCortex says

...during the Dem debates Bernie repeated the "We have twelve years before we are all gonna die!" line.

To which the moderator should have replied, "So...why bother with doing Medicare For All or anything else for that matter?"

But the moderator was a Democrat stooge.

Let's face it if we all going to die in 12 years, panic would be universal, not just on stage in one convention lol. No one would give a fuck about getting a pension.

I wonder if leftists actually use logic, or they just believe everything that is told to them by people on stage.

that's too funny!

Tesla is doomed!

WookieMan says

The fact this is a story in the first place is what should scare people

So a President that usurps the 4th of July celebration on the Mall in DC for clearly political purposes, sprinkles tanks and other military equipment around like monuments to his greatness and gives VIP tickets to Republicans only, shouldn't be a press story? If a Dem had done the same thing there would be a screaming of Posse Comitatus and immediate impeachment hearings. And by the way the stable genius wants it to be a story, that is until no one shows up. I hear they are giving away tickets and begging people to show up, that's what some people say. Seems its bad stage management. Many people are saying he and his evangelical followers are praying for rain.

This is where the LibbyFucks come in handy. They pee on your head and tell you it's raining.

Hillary behind bars with captured negroes would be better.

And Trump asks for more... or so I hear from somewhere.

How come there are no reparations for slave owners who had their slaves stolen?

Trump is such a dictator, that the Resistance to his Tyranny...

... Call him Great Orange Douche or Drumpf-Hitler everytime he tweets on every major social media platform
Nightly by shitty comedy writers on all the late night alleged funnyman shows
Mock his daughter, sons, wife; even his youngest child in the nastiest terms possible.
Develop crude imagery of him and put makeup on to look like a black eye, alleging they were attacked by his supporters.
Demand he take all the guns away and forbid them from ever having any

Is this sarcasm? Name one president in the history of this country that NEVER used the office of president for political reasons? They all do and you know it. For some reason THIS time and THIS president it's a problem. The name is mentioned so much here so I'm not going to search for it, but there were threads here about Obama using the office for reelection and political gain. Those threads were no different than this one.

I find the faux outrage over something like this hysterical. I've agreed that it's 3rd world level chest thumping stuff, but who cares? In two weeks the left will move onto the next hysterical "problem" and blow that out of proportion. Then the next time a Democrat is elected the right will act the same. And the cycle will repeat itself until everyone dies. It's like gravity, you can't make it go away.

Are you talking about the Clinton tour? Or was that Biden rallies?
Trump’s got em lined up out the door!

Sorry to disappoint you but Tesla will not be allowed to fail. Book it.

Who do you think would save it?

Has Ford, GM or Chrysler been allowed to fail? Tesla is right in line with the new electric car requirement al a big daddy government. CAFE standards are going up to 50 soon.

Sure - but based on Tesla massively increasing sales YOY and there still aren't any major auto-makers who have anything close to what Tesla has built in terms of product or infrastructure (charging networks, battery factories, institutional knowledge). I think Tesla is going to continue to be miles and miles ahead of the competitors for quite a while yet.

The vaunted Tesla killer Audi E-Tron already has a recall. The Porsche and Jaguar EV's are barely selling.

Here is Tesla 3 sales compared to other mid-sized luxury cars through May. I'd wager that over 90% of current Tesla drivers will never go back to conventional ICE cars after owning an EV with all of its benefits.

I'd rather have a Chevy Volt.

Booger says

I'd rather have a Chevy Volt.

The 2011 Volt's are still kicking with their original battery packs with very few failures thanks to the robust battery heating/cooling systems. Can't say the same thing for the Nissan Leafs.

I have a Chevy Bolt and prefer it to the Volt because it is quicker and more fun to drive around. That said, I would take a Tesla in a heartbeat if price wasn't an issue.

Tesla is toast.

If GM sells the Bolt and loses money on each one, how the fuck is Tesla going to make a dime selling Model 3 when the taxpayer subsidy ends eventually?

Incidentally, I see Bolts all over the place lately; I bet GM wishes people would stop buying them and buy a Surburban instead.

I would actually consider a Bolt if my car ever died; I probably don't drive more than 200 miles per week so the range would not inconvenience me.

Tesla is not going to disappear probably, someone will probably buy the company someday if they have anything clever patented.

Musk is a kook and a liar. He should not be CEO of any company.

He Should Repeal the 13th Amendment and Drive Around DC Capturing Escaped Negroes at (Gatling) Gun Point and Returning Them To Their Owners!

Um, Trump is not a Democrat. You need Biden, Byrd, and friends to do that.

Another Trumpian gaffe to the solar plexus! Better than when he called KimFuck a 'sweet little dictator'.

Technically, Aircraft One is right after I googled that for you, assuming the President isn’t on the plane.

socal2 says

Yep.

Unless they purchase their next EV soon, though, it'll probably be some other Status Symbol brand when the Tesla car company is gone. Unless another car company "buys" Tesla (ahem, assumes the liabilities I mean), and keeps the brand name.

Tesla shorts are going down!
I'm long (5+) years holding horizon.

Just want to come here and show that I put my money on Tesla. I bought $68,289 of TSLA stock (long, cash no margin) between 6/26/19 – 7/1/19. Adding my original position of 40 shares.
The shorts are going to get ass-raped. There will be panic covering which will pump the share price up. The Shanghai Gigafactory is ahead of schedule. When the G3 start ramping for the huge Chinese EV market demand for Model 3, it is going to be close to million units/year. Unbelievable? Believe it. The Chinese government wants to move rapidly away from ICE and they are partnering with Tesla to make it happen. Xi decided it wasn’t happening fast enough with domestic EV companies. Tesla is a premium brand, very high demand in China. They can lower the cost by building there by at least $7-10K usd per M3.
There is NO EV competition for Tesla, everyone is at least 3 years behind and falling. The ICE brand EV’s today can’t even touch the X or S, much less the M3. Model Y is coming. Then the pickup, semi.
Tesla is going to be the greatest American auto company in 5 to 10 years when ICE automaker finally wakes up. Happy 4th of July!

Yes, but it was all off the start. Hard to beat electric off the line. Notice that the Demon was catching up, and was actually faster speed when it crossed the finish line. Had this race been 1/2 mile, the Demon would have won.

Yep - but for practical day to day driving, I much rather have the instant torque and acceleration than an overall top speed. How often and where can you drive over 90 mph sustained?

I am still having a blast 6 months in driving my Bolt around and accelerating hard to quickly get to the speed limit.

There was another float balloon of Trump on the golden toilet with his MAGA hat

Indeed. It’s sad how perverted and sick the #resist crowd has become. Poor things, perhaps someone will build them a nice asylum.

You mean like Black Nationalist Genderqueer Anti-Semites who worked directly for Democrats as well as NYC "Anti-Hate Crime" initiatives and was majoring on the taxpayer dollar at Brandeis in African-American Studies?

he suspect charged with scrawling anti-Semitic graffiti inside a Brooklyn synagogue has Jewish foster parents, and was an intern for former City Council Speaker Christine Quinn — for whom he worked on initiatives to combat hate crime.

James Polite was busted Friday, a day after he allegedly wrote “Kill All Jews,” in the stairwell of historic Union Temple in Prospect Heights.

Police said Saturday that Polite, 26, had also recently set a string of fires — including in the closet of Yeshiva Beth Hillel of Williamsburg, and smaller blazes in the trash outside three other nearby Jewish institutions.

Quinn, who is now president and CEO of Women in Need, a homeless services group, confirmed Saturday that Polite — the subject of a profile in the New York Times last year — was her intern.

The media hated this story. It didn't help their narrative. I'd guess that 90% of all anti-semitic events in the US are Black and/or Muslim perps.

Imagine if a White Young Man who interned for an Alabama Republican State Official and was featured on Fox News Segement as a success story while majoring in Classics on a Free Taxpayer Scholarship had been caught vandalizing and attempting to commit arson in Temples.

You'd never hear the end of it.

When it's Blacks / Muslims, the media rushes to bury.

Blacks and Muslims are THE most antisemitic people in the USA (also the most anti-gay, anti-Asian, and flat out racist against everybody not Black).

That is why the Democrat coalition of various victim groups is so untenable.

White skin plus crazy person = "far right wing" to CNN.

Cool, people protested a parade. What was the outcome of that? Seems like wasted time and most normal people were just busy enjoying their 4th of July living their lives and trying to have fun. All of which the president doesn't interfere with. But hey, lampshades and soap. Over dramatic much?
