It's also backfilling for the brain cavern! Lately in his speeches, he's talking about how awesome tariffs are as everyone from the WSJ on down tells him his blanket tariff plan sucks.

He especially likes to repeat poo poo that someone else told him, like in this case where a black barber with a $15k/month electric bill (it was a billing error from a smart meter) complained about it.

Doesn't hurt that eliminating the income tax and replacing it with tariffs is both impossible and a monumental giveaway to the rich.

The betting market is such a stupid concept that I can't wait to stop hearing about it and also hope everyone who puts money into it, all of whom are presumably backing Trump, loses their shirt.

I actually muted the word Polymarket on Twitter because I was so tired of reading about it.

When I said he was going to burn it all to the ground the other day, I didn't think he would actually literally bankrupt a major source of income for the government.

Phoenix has been pretty wild lately.

Someone got arrested for hanging anti-Democrat signs with baggies containing white powder and booby trapping them with razors. It came out that he was also the guy driving around shooting up local DNC offices over the past year or so. They raided his house and found a huge arsenal and also believe he was planning a mass shooting.

I don't really know.

People have claimed someone had been putting the crazy signs up for a few years, sans powder and razor blades, and that their own signs had been defaced or stolen. The police had a description of the vehicle used for the shootings, possibly he used it again for the sign stuff and it was traced back to him.

I have some shocking news for all of you, it looks like Elon might be full of poo poo.

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/elon-musk-trump-47-petition-payment-voters-1235141313/


quote:

Out of 30 people contacted by Rolling Stone who said they had attempted to claim payment through the America PAC petition offer, most did not respond. Of the nine who did, none have received payments so far. Six indicated that they support neither Musk nor Trump and simply wanted to claim the cash. “Don’t believe in any of the petition stuff, just looking to scam Elon out of $47,” says one Pennsylvania voter. Musk has personally poured at least $75 million into America PAC.

“Signed my parents and wife up, with their permission. We all live in Wisconsin,” says another signatory, who explains that these family members are not voting for Trump. “Not holding my breath,” they say regarding the theoretical payout from Musk’s organization. This voter did receive an email confirmation from America PAC that the group had logged them as a referrer. “A check will be mailed out to you at your registered voting address — checks start going out right now!” states the message, which was shared with Rolling Stone. The Pennsylvania voter who wants to “scam Elon” also received this form email, 16 days after their referral had been submitted.

Similarly, a North Carolina voter tells Rolling Stone that she signed the petition on Oct. 7 and referred her husband, later receiving an email from America PAC saying that she “earned the $47 for the referral.” She has not yet received the money.

As the fine print on the Super PAC’s petition deal notes: “Before payment is made, America PAC will verify the accuracy of all information of the referrer and referee.” It’s not clear how the group is verifying the information supplied by voters, nor whether it is using the data as part of its get-out-the-vote efforts in the closing days of the election cycle. (The Trump campaign has largely outsourced its ground game to Musk’s Super PAC, to the concern of allies warning that the group isn’t up to the task.) A spokesperson for America PAC did not return a request for comment on the processing of subsequent payments.

A Trump voter in Pennsylvania tells Rolling Stone that he had his girlfriend sign the petition and list him as a referrer. “If it were anyone other than Elon Musk doing this I wouldn’t trust it,” he says. But he is frustrated at receiving no confirmation message or further communication from the Super PAC since then. “Part of me thinks it’s B.S. just to rally up votes,” he admits, in which case he plans to “have a field day slandering [Musk], and Trump might just lose my vote.”

I figured it was the usual landscaping or home contractor flyer I get like every other week but nope,


It's very funny to me because not only did someone spend time and money printing this poo poo out and blanketing the neighborhood with it, when Trump has as much a chance of winning my precinct, let alone Maryland, as Harris does winning a blood red district in Oklahoma. Zero mention of Hogan though, who arguably has a chance to win the vacant senate seat (though I do not think he will win). lol, lmao.
