"I said Republican primaries are less rigged not that they were totally pure. The media has been rigging them for years when they do this front runner bullshit. Jeb Bush as front runner in 2016? Somehow the media had a comeback in 2020 when they pushed the corpse of Joe Biden to be president and with a little help from the AA communities, he "won".

Actually, Trump completely hoodwinked the media in 2016 to cover him. He got more free media coverage than anyone and instead of the media, which rigs elections, making him look foolish, Trump made the media look dumb. The media were all crying in their La Croix water when Trump got elected and said, "Why did we give this guy so much coverage?

Even now, you have many people running in the more fair Republican primaries and viable challengers like RFK JR (guess he too is not a Democrat like Bernie) bailing ship and running as independent. The Democratic primaries are so rigged the majority of Democratic voters don't want Biden as president but they have no choice but to accept him. Hel, you even have Bill Maher begging Biden not to run.

We are running out of ingredients Mr. Pretzel. Salt, nacho cheese are gone. All that is left is a side of mustard. Man, I get it. It is hard being a Democrat these days. Things were so much easier when Black Jesus was around. ".

There are reasons women have jobs, wall street wants to drive up GDP, how? By making both husband and wife work, you can pay the man less, because now they have 2 incomes to get by, but need 2 cars now and clothes for work etc but they can drive up the GDP.

And there is what's called ADULT DAY CARE.

I go into the Chase Tower in downtown Chicago regularly and see lots of ADULT DAY CARE.

You will go by an office with several 20 something women sitting in there playing with their fones and hair etc.

I guess they are having a MEETING LMAO.

Travel around most of the world and you will see most of these women selling pussy.

But in the west they don't want men getting easy pussy.

They want men to have to fight over crumbs and work your ass off for a beach with a horrible entitled attitude.

Travel around Asia or Latin America or Eastern Europe and see what kind of ADULT DAY CARE is available? NONE.

The wall street dirtbags and The WEF crowd want females working 9 to 5 for them.

Even if its just ADULT DAY CARE.

I hope next time one of these ISG losers have cancer or need brain surgery they make sure to goto a female physician LMAO.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/passpo...women-overseas

Just look around America? How many street hookers do you see? Not many they rather be working at Chase for ADULT DAY CARE.

Just look and see how many men are homeless including veterans? How many women are homeless??

Its because of dirtbags with the same attitude as spidy.

Be nice to the pigs, lick their dirty buttholes, maybe theyll give you sum pussy!

Bush's Great Repub Recession, Great Repub Financial Crisis and Great Repub Massive Jobs Destruction, now you are proveably wrong about another utterly debunked Repub Party fabrication; the so-called "Obamaphone', a program that also started under one of your beloved Repub so-called presidents and doesn't have anything to do with Obama anyway:

You're on a roll with getting everything wrong. We'll, that is nothing new, of course.

Got anymore? LOL.

I don't know who started the program nor do I care, did I say who started it, slow down the keyboard diarrhea and learn how to read.

While I'm sure Barry added a few trillion to the program, if you live in the USA you might know what you're talking about but you want to debate American politics.

From 10000 miles away and you haven't even stepped foot on American soil in at least 12 yrs.

If you lived here you would know what they call Obama fones in the ghetto, they are called "Obama fones" dum dum.

Just like they still call food stamps "Obama bucks".

Ask blacks why they loved barry or if they still do, and they will tell you because he gave us new Obama fones and bumped up our food stamps therefore.

In gratitude theyve permanently named them "Obama bucks".

I see you didn't have any trouble finding the term Obama fones.

While Bill Maher continues his years long weekly Republican Party Campaign Rallies and calculates which third candidate on a future ballot to endorse in order to ensure a Republican candidate win, it might be useful to recap a few recent Bill Maher Republican Party Campaign Rally expert analysis and predictions vs real world outcomes:

Bill Maher predicts GOP will win big in midterms because of 'woke culture' and says America is now the 'Titanic right after the iceberg hit': Compares democracy to a McRib - 'it's here now... so enjoy it while you can'
Nov. 5, 2022

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...e-culture.html

The Real Time host, 66, didn't seem too positive about the 2022 Midterm Elections on Tuesday, and says 'woke culture is just one reason why the Republicans are going to do so well in this election.'
....
He went on to say that the 'left has gone super crazy with lots of s**t that the average American just never voted for,' such as gender identity and homelessness.
....
is predicted that the Republican Party will rule the Senate and the House after Tuesday's election.

'Things are going to change fundamentally in this country after this election,' Maher said on Thursday. 'Theyre definitely going to win.'
....
The self-proclaimed 'traditional liberal' channeled the same energy on his Friday night show on HBO, where he again declared that 'democracy will lose' and Trump's 'election-deniers' will prevail on Tuesday.

He said on his show that the former president's election deniers will carve out seats for themselves and Americans 'won't even care after it happens.'

Vs:

How Democrats won the midterms.
Dec. 12, 2022

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaig...-the-midterms/

Democrats defied expectations up and down the ballot in 2022 despite facing historic headwinds and other challenges going into the midterms.

However, Democrats were able to grow their majority in the Senate, retain and win a number of gubernatorial and state-level races, and temper their losses in the House.

Oh, and there is this, Bill:

The Democrats Lost the House by Just 6,675 Votes. What Went Wrong?
At first glance, Democratic performance in last years House races was great. But a close look under the hood reveals that, with a few smarter moves and a little more luck, wed have Speaker Jeffries.
Feb. 9, 2923

https://newrepublic.com/article/1702...ction-mistakes#text=Even%20 by%20 the%20 standards%20 of, changed%20 that%20 number%20 to%206%2 C675).

Although almost no one realized it at the time, the 2022 elections for the House were the Capitol Hill version of George W. Bush versus Al Gore. Even by the standards of close elections, 2022 was off the charts. An analysis by Jacob Rubashkin in early December for the political tip sheet Inside Elections found that just 6,670 votes spread over five House districts would have kept the Democrats in the majority. (Final counts have changed that number to 6,675). For math mavens, that works out to be 0.006 percent of the more than 107 million votes cast in House races. According to Rubashkins tally, 22,378 of these votes in the right places would have prevented the Republicans from picking up a single seat in the House. So we are not talking about a normal electionthis was the Democrats losing on a wild pitch in the tenth inning of the seventh game of the World Series.

Mind you, that would include Mini Trump George Santos' "win" in New York based on what is turning out to be 100% lies about everything and at least a couple of over-creatively magic-marker Repub Governor-"redrawn" districts similar to the ones for which those so-called Governors have been spanked by Federal Judges.

But it didn't stop there:

Democrats have been winning big in special elections.
That could bode well for them in the 2024 election.

You know, I'm beginning to suspect Bill Maher's pro Repub Bothsiderism election analysis and predictions are quite full of shit, especially with regard to his continually campaigning for Repubs on their idiotic "War on Woke" nothingness for lack of anything else to run on that they have ever accomplished for the American people over the past 100 years or so.

I need to stop replying to your nonsense, "One does not bother debating anything with someone that won't concede even when they blatantly lose", I proved.

With every single issue you're clearly full of lies and full of Whoopi Goldberg diarrhea of the mouth with my links, and what do you do?

Of course, say I'm still wrong, you're a pathological liar, that should not be debated.

Perhaps as a cautionary tale, Republicans should stop trying to control, "box up/box-in" and/or ban women's rights to abortion and instead realized and focus on women's freedoms that are a "box office" boom to the US economy and overall welfare of the country.

You had great timing Spidy. You posted this the day one of my manosphere heroes, Aaron Clarey published his book, "A world without men". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zm5foiiRrv8.

I will save you the $15 and tell you that around 75% of our food and 80% of our "stuff" comes from men. You need a HR position filled then you get a woman. You need a car fixed or wiring in a home and you HAVE to get a man. In the 1950's there were no HR employees but there were mechanics and electricians. It is funny how that works. It is almost like jobs had to be made up for women.

And you are a traitor to your sex, Spidy? A soy boy? LOL. Well, you better be a thin one because that soy you are consuming was produced by men.

Man, I wish you libtards had to stay and live in the shitholes you created. Tooms the pretzel would have had to stay in California. PVmonger could not hightail it down to Mexico, and you would have your passport revoked. "I am sorry sir you can only have sex with women in blue states. " MLK had a dream, and that is mine.

I won't hold my breath waiting for the RNC to blow millions, run tv ads and schedule debates featuring a 'Repubican-Socialist' who suddenly claimed to be a member of the Republican Party at 2:15 pm the day before the first debate and damn well might revert right back to self-identify as a 'Republican-Socialist' the instant the RNC is dumb enough to help him win the nomination and we'll before the general election. LOL.

If you think the Olympic Gold Medal level of Pretzel Twisting you have been engaged in up to now has been challenging, imagine what new twists, turns and knots you'd tie yourself into trying to explain how your beloved RNC belly-flopped into something that politically stupid.

Then again, your Party loves to commit crimes against America, overthrow or at least threaten to shut down the American government over and over again. So backing a 'Republican-Socialist' shouldn't bother them or their base very much as long as he espouses violence against America, overturning free and fair elections and overthrowing democracy. You know, the clever way Trump gets Mainstream Media to pay attention to him, love him and help him win elections even as he recognizes and asserts that his Repub Party rigs elections from beginning to end.

So not that anyone gives a shit here.

But did you cut it off already or are you still tucking it?

I think you're really lost literally and figuratively.

This is supposed to be a forum for hetero CIS males jajajajajajaaaaaaaa.

I'm no economist but how did they add a penny to the US economy?(werent most of those domestic sales).

If walmart sells $8. 5 billion worth the stuff, I'm pretty sure they didn't add $8. 5 b to the economy per se.

Bringing money from outside of the USA would be "adding it to the economy", selling tickets to "entertainment" doesn't sound like a earth shattering contribution to a $25 trillion economy.

Although the term "rigged" was used for many years in reference to other things, Trump was eager to claim many times that he was the first to use it with regard to the REPUB PRIMARIES being RIGGED against him!

OK, Twisty McPretzel, twist your way out of this one:

Trump's 'Rigged' Claim.
July 12, 2016

https://www.factcheck.org/2016/07/trumps-rigged-claim/

Trump is fond of the word rigged. The primary process, the economy, the justice system that did not charge Hillary Clinton with a crime: all rigged. Trump now says hes a political trendsetter, claiming Bernie Sanders and then everybody followed his lead and started using the word rigged too. Thats false.

Our review of public statements suggests Trump borrowed the word from Sanders, who regularly has used the term rigged to describe the government systems that institutionalize income inequality. That has been a Sanders theme since day one of his campaign long before Trump made the word a regular staple of his stump speeches.

In fact, populist politicians have been using the term rigged for decades to describe various government or political systems despite Trumps claim that a couple political pros told him that he was a trailblazer in using the word rigged.

Before we dig into the political uses of rigged, though, lets set the scene with Trumps odd boast, made during a rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, on July 5 after the FBI director announced that he would not recommend criminal charges against Clinton for her use of a private email server when she served as secretary of state.

Today is the best evidence ever that weve seen that our system is absolutely, totally rigged, Trump said. Its rigged.

Trump then went on to say that he was the first to use the term rigged in the Republican primaries, in reference to his displeasure with not being awarded delegates proportional to his vote tally in some states. Then all of a sudden, he said rigged became a hot term. People like Sanders started using it, Trump said, and now everyone talks about rigged.'

Trump in North Carolina, July 5: And I used that term initially when I was running in the Republican primaries and I was the first to use it. Then all of a sudden it became a hot term. Everybody was using the word, rigged, rigged, rigged. But if you remember, Id win Louisiana and Id find out Id be getting enough delegates, what happens? And places like Colorado which were so good to me, but all of a sudden we find out that they dont have the vote. And other things. OK. I used the word great. And frankly Ill be honest. If I didnt win in landslides I wouldnt be standing up here. Youd be watching some politician who would lose to Hillary Clinton. OK? Believe me. Believe me.

I started winning I learned about rigged very fast. I learned. But I used the term rigged. Then all of a sudden Bernie started using it and other people and now everyone talks about rigged but Im gonna keep using it because I was the one that brought it up and Im the one, and I asked a couple of political pros, Did you ever hear the word rigged, its a rigged everything? And they really it hasnt been a thing used, I guess it has to be somewhere along the line, but it hasnt.

Trump mentioned it again the next day during a speech in Cincinnati.

Trump in Cincinnati, July 6: The FBI director said Hillary failed to turn over several thousand work-related emails, including emails that were classified. Right? Rigged system folks. Remember I used to say it. Im the one that brought that word up. Now everybodys using it. Bernie Sanders is rightfully using it. Because honestly what they did with him was not good.

We realize there are bigger issues being discussed on the campaign trail. But when Trump claimed that Im the one that brought that word up and that now everybodys using it, we wondered if that could possibly be true.

Less than two months after announcing his presidential candidacy in June 2015, Trump got some written advice from his longtime adviser Roger Stone. As the Washington Post reported on Aug. 9, 2015, In a 13-page memo to Trump, Stone urged him to state that the system is rigged against the citizens and that he is the lone candidate who cannot be bought.'

But we couldnt find any evidence that Trump actually took that advice at least not by literally using the word rigged until the following April, when Trump began to criticize the Republican primary system as well as the Democratic primary system, on behalf of Sanders. Trump was concerned that delegate counts were not matching popular vote counts in some states.

At a rally in Albany, New York, on April 11, for example, Trump railed against the Republican primary process, calling it a rigged, disgusting dirty system. Later that month, at a rally in Indiana, Trump called the Republican primary process a rigged, crooked system thats designed so that the bosses can pick whoever they want.

In June, Trump described the political system more broadly as totally rigged in order to keep incumbent politicians in power.

Trump, June 7: After years of disappointment, there is one thing we all have learned we cant fix the rigged system by relying on very, and I mean this so, so strongly, on the very people who rigged it, and they rigged it, and do not ever think anything differently. We cant solve our problems by counting on the politicians who created our problems.

In a June 22 speech in New York City, Trump used the word seven times in just over a minute to describe not just the political system, but the whole economy.

Trump, June 22: Well will never be able to fix a rigged system by counting on the same people who have rigged it in the first place. The insiders wrote the rules of the game to keep themselves in power and in the money. Thats why were asking Bernie Sanders voters to join our movement: so together we can fix the system for all Americans. So important. This includes fixing all of our many disastrous trade deals. Because its not just the political system thats rigged, its the whole economy. Its rigged by big donors who want to keep wages down. Its rigged by big businesses who want to leave our country, fire our workers, and sell their products back into the United States with absolutely no consequences for them. Its rigged by bureaucrats who are trapping kids in failing schools. Its rigged against you, the American people.

More recently, as we noted earlier, Trump has used the word rigged to describe the justice system that decided not to prosecute Clinton for her use of a private email system when she served as secretary of state.

So theres no question Trump has embraced rigged everything in his speeches and interviews. But is he responsible for introducing the term into the current political discourse? Hardly.

We did word searches on speeches by Trump catalogued by Project Vote Smart and did a Lexis Nexis search of all newspaper articles using the words Trump and rigged. We didnt find any evidence of Trump using the word rigged from the beginning of his campaign in June 2015 until April 2016, when it became a regular feature in his speeches.

Sanders, on the other hand, regularly used the term rigged to describe the U.S. economy even before Trump entered the race and before Stone advised Trump to use the word rigged to describe the system. In his announcement speech on May 26, 2015, Sanders talked about income inequality and said, This type of rigged economy is not what America is supposed to be about.

Project Vote Smart documents at least 40 instances of Sanders using the term rigged in speeches and interviews between the first day of his candidacy and Trumps initial use of the term in April 2016. From the start, Sanders campaign website included a page on Income and Wealth Inequality and concludes, This is what a rigged economic system looks like. It was one of the central themes of Sanders campaign.

Although Trump claimed to have introduced rigged to the Republican primary, he didnt. During a Republican primary debate in January, Carly Fiorina criticized the establishment, the media and pundits, saying, The game is rigged. That same month, John Kasich similarly claimed the system is rigged.

But lets go back a little further, before the 2016 campaign. In a major speech at the Democratic convention in 2012, Sen. Elizabeth Warren famously said, People feel like the system is rigged against them. And heres the painful part: Theyre right. The system is rigged.

Warrens public statements archived by Project Vote Smart since January 2012 show the Massachusetts senator has used the term frequently over the last five years.

But we can go back even further than that. Trump may take credit for introducing the term rigged to describe the primary process, but thats exactly the word Jerry Brown used in 1992 to describe that very system.

Jerry Brown, May 21, 1992: The way the Democratic Party has rigged its rules, it uses something it calls Super Tuesday to try to promote a Southern conservative candidate as a way to win votes. But what that does is leave California and Oregon and a lot of other states out of the process.

Other random examples of elected officials using the term rigged on the House or Senate floor over the years can be found here and here and here and here and here and here. We could go on. But the point is that politicians have long been using the term rigged to describe government and political systems for years and years.

Trump may have a newfound affection for the word. But he didnt introduce it into the political discourse. It was already there.

Maybe you missed all those early claims by Trump that the REPUB PRIMARIES were RIGGED against him because you were busy looking for tubs of sea salt to roll in after baking.

Meanwhile, you do know that Bernie Sanders is not a member of the Democratic Party, right? And that he only "became" one temporarily in order to freeload on whatever DNC money and support he could glom onto for a presidential nomination election run, right?
