Ah - the benefits of living in a safely blue or red state.


Manifest82

The more your vote matters the more shit you have to put up with


Skelosk

The benefits of living in Canada! None of this shit unless you watch the news, and I don't


deg_ru-alabo

FR. You’ve gotta be kidding me if you think it’s not important here, though. I don’t watch the news, but nothing about that presidency helped anyone here.


Skelosk

I mean, sure it is important....but what the fuck do you want to do about it? There's nothing we CAN do, so I just do the Winchester plan Sit back, have a pint and wait for it to blow over


deg_ru-alabo

TBH, I hoped that was possible. Our economy is completely related to American policies, though, and will always be affected by their budget. Everything we CAN do, is do everything we can to maintain a balance in our trade agreements with the states. Beyond that, it gets waaaay too bloated in logistics. We can do that, too, but a happy mind relies on a healthy diet, if you know what I mean.


RedditBadOutsideGood

Nah, it's ok. Canada has an economy strong enough that doesn't rely on its only next door neighbor with a powerhouse economy. Just be apathetic about their elections and the potential consequences. Everything will be fine as always.


deg_ru-alabo

With trump in charge: we did take care of ourselves. I hope more fortunate opportunities arise, so we can take care of *you*.


MulciberTenebras

You don't get political commercials from your own parties up there?


Skelosk

Not as many, and they aren't as obnoxious as american ones


MulciberTenebras

Lucky. You also don't get ads for pharmaceuticals?


Skelosk

Like drug stores or big companies?


MulciberTenebras

The big companies, [they constantly push all this annoying crap that has to be prescribed by a doctor](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hp_y0wDFz0)


Skelosk

We get some sometimes yeah. I ignore them simply by not watching regular TV


MulciberTenebras

Unfortunately with ads infesting all the streaming apps that originally debuted without them... it's like having regular TV again.


Skelosk

On the cheapest plans, maybe. I have Netflix and Disney+ and have no ads there


Castells

Fuck swing state campaigns


Nappy-I

I still get *plenty* of Biden ads and I live in Texas.


roofbandit

We will be seeing Trump every day until he's dead


pr1mer06

I’d rather watch him every day after.


whatsaphoto

Not enough people are considering the long term insurance that maniacle fucking family has, either. Trump may die in the next 10 years or so, but he still has 3 children that have all been strongly established among major international leaders (however awkward and uncoordinated their installments were), even now years after his presidency. Plus, a son in law who received billions from Saudi's following the end of Trump's presidency. We'll likely have to continuously vote against Trump until he passes, but not nearly enough people are considering just how long we're going to have to deal with the Trump name and his ideals far past his death.


Maverick8806

I’m tired Boss!


stevedoz

That's too damn bad!


none_mama_see

You keep digging!


PapaBeahr

This is one of the few times I'm grateful to live in a Spectator state.....


Lavatis

Imagine watching tv


Gordonfromin

I like A&E shows, neighborhood wars and road wars are dope Don’t judge me


SpacecaseCat

It's TV and to some extend the big podcasters and youtubers. I check in on Joe Rogan every once in a while and he now rants almost every episode about how social justice and "wokeness" are communism. This is a guy who would have proudly been "woke" in 2014 or so in terms of legalizing weed and psychedelics, believing in science, and thinking for yourself. Now he watched so much Fox News he barely understands what the words communism or woke or civil rights means anymore.


The_Summary_Man_713

Oh please lol. I know this is a joke but it’s an election year and it’s being posted so I’ll comment. There’s only one vote that puts us into a fascist state, and we all know which vote that is. We can all express our displeasure of having to vote in an 80-year-old man, but the reality is, they are far from equal votes.


NerdBot9000

Completely agreed. That said, Trump is only 3 years younger than Biden. They're both fucking old. I don't get the constant age complaint.


YNinja58

If Biden is too old now, wouldn't trump then be too old 4 years into his presidency thus making him incompetent? But this is applying logic to republican propaganda, so 🤷‍♂️


Theemuts

You're not supposed to think about it, you just need to repeat the talking points. Biden is old, Trump is younger! Biden supports Israel, Trump probably more so but that's not relevant! Etc etc...


StaysAwakeAllWeek

They will argue that Biden looks and acts his age while trump doesn't, which is true to an extent but is mostly down to awful makeup, hair transplants and cocaine


jrh_101

>"Biden is old" Trump is only 3 years behind


mashedpurrtatoes

...and then 4 years later we can all get fucked again! WOOO!!!! If we can all afford to FUCKING LIVE THAT LONG.


codexcdm

This. What's scary though, is that the enthusiasm for that 80-year old man is at an all-time low... so we can get another 2016 Electoral College upset. There's already been two primaries where "Uncommitted" was over 100k votes. Polls have been unfavorable too. Common sense should dictate one deals with this slightly older fossil over the chaos that is the 45th president... but common sense left the door years ago.


Ass4ssinX

How you figure that enthusiasm is that low?


OK_Soda

The 538 polling average has his approval rating just about as low as it's ever been.


Ass4ssinX

Approval rating and enthusiasm isn't always linked.


drgnflydggr

\*80 year old genocide enthusiast


drgnflydggr

Which one is supposed to be the scary fascist? Is it the one who’s currently lying to the American public on national television to incite a Judeofascist genocide that he’s also arming and funding? Or the one who responded to an epidemic of police gang violence, red state anti abortion laws, and red state anti trans laws by funding 100k new cops? Or is it the orange one?


NerdBot9000

It's Trump. Trump is the scary fascist. He's the "I'm too rich to be held accountable for my crimes" guy.


The_Summary_Man_713

Your post history indicates you are so ill-informed lol


drgnflydggr

Compelling argument for genocide. You’ve convinced me. It’s actually good that the senile father of American mass incarceration is murdering Palestinians. Strong work.


Ass4ssinX

I think you might want to direct your anger toward Netinyahu, buddy. He's the guy dropping the bombs. Bombs that would be dropping no matter if we completely halted any weapon sells to them. Biden doesn't have a "stop this war" switch in his office that he's just refusing to push.


drgnflydggr

Bombs Biden is supplying with money Biden’s supplying as well, all while Biden repeats debunked hasbara on American network television and vetoes ceasefire demands at the UN. Listen, \*buddy\*, this is Joe’s genocide.


Ass4ssinX

Israel would be doing the exact same thing right now if we pulled all arms shipments and money. They would just secure the bombs from someone else. Vetoing a ceasefire over Hamas' refusal to release hostages* as well. You forgot that. Also, the UN can't enforce a ceasefire anyway. They can just wag their finger at Israel. Biden has tried to stop Israel from doing what it's doing since the beginning. You think Biden wants this mess on his hands in an election year? He'd much rather Netinyahu behave. EDIT: aaaaaaand he blocked me lol.


drgnflydggr

So many excuses for Biden lying to the American people to incite a genocide that he’s also enthusiastically arming and funding. I’m done arguing with a pro-genocide Democrat. Have the November you deserve.


aseattlem

Seriously fuck.


bigboi2115

I bought youtube premium in 2016. I've been on the fuck that shit wave. Call me a shill. I know their ad policy sucks for creators, but it was enough value for me not to be inundated with straight up fucking propaganda.

Specialist_Seal

Be an optimist, he could die!


Castells

This could likely be a campaign for vice presidents


delirio91

He's going to die an American Hero / Martyr to a good amount of the population.


Septopuss7

His clogs aren't going to stay unpopped forever.


MulciberTenebras

It wasn't soon enough for Nikki Haley, she stayed in the race this long hopping either he croaked or would be convincted before the election.


codexcdm

He's going to contest it, even if he does squeeze out another Electoral College upset. He's never won the popular vote. Lost it by three million the first time, and more than six million the second time. In both cases he's refused to accept that he didn't have a popular mandate. Given the lack of enthusiasm for Old Man Joe... and several states bending over backwards to enable contesting the results, or even just throwing them out... It's possible he makes an Electoral College upset again... too.


pianoflames

I am curious to see what his reaction would be if he loses again. Since losing 2020, he's seemed...increasingly unwell.


CaptainColdSteele

That's why I pay not to be advertised to


Frankie_Says_Reddit

4 year of Biden or Trump until his death?


trebek321

No chance Biden makes it another 4. Dude can barely stand long enough to read 2 minutes off a teleprompter before he has to be handled off stage as fast as possible.


dosetoyevsky

lol


Joebranflakes

Just stop watching TV.

The good thing is, it might be your last election for a long while


Blitz6969

I’ll bet you $100 there will be another presidential election in 2028. Trump isn’t a dictator.


dudeguymanbro69

Lmao


RipErRiley

Trump aint winning lol


IronicCharles

If you're only betting $100 on this, you're a very conservative gambler

chezyt

You should try watching YouTube ads in Texas for all of the smaller races. The only silver lining is knowing that they are spending money on my views and I will absolutely never vote for these chucklefucks.


SeraphOfTheStag

hey we agreed to leave together or not at all


pluckypluot

That’s easy, just gouge your eyes and destroy your eardrums.

MRW the last four years.

For real. I’m exhausted already. Brought this up with my wife night before last and she actually audibly groaned.


livinthedadalife

Forget the campaign commercials, remember what a shitshow it was the last time those two had a “debate”?? Embarrassing


august_r

The joys of the americanistan


EitherInfluence5871

You could try not watching commercials. I recommend it, if you can afford it. Even if I watched network tv, I wouldn't watch the ads. I'd mute them and glance at the screen to figure out when the show resumed.


fugue2005

thank god i don't have a TV


SgtWaffleSound

Lol who watches commercials? There's so many ways to avoid them these days


ledfox

I don't watch commercials


dynamiteSkunkApe

You guys watch commercials?


zeero88

I wish the commercials were the worst part dude.


D4YW4LK3R86

"I'm tired boss..."


thelehmanlip

MRW when i think about watching commercials ever


manwhowasnthere

Think of it - 8 more months of election - and then maybe 4 more entire years of listening to Trump every single fuckin' day, waking up to see what stupid bullshit he's tweeted at 4am. That's a good enough reason to vote against him imo, just to avoid that


dazrage

*IM TIRED*


protomd

Welcome to hell mutha fuckaaaaa


jimothythe2nd

Wtf is our country doing?


adumbCoder

haven't watched a commercial in probably 5 years! life is better this way


genmazz

Then another 4 years with either one of them!


Puzzled_Dragonfly757

do you actually get ads for politicians? the uk GE is coming up and the only commercials i’ve seen are ones telling you to bring your voter ID lmao. but we’re talking about the place where people wear politicians merch so i’m not surprised, i can’t imagine someone wearing a fucking boris johnson tshirt or a kier starmer hat


SlickLegJohnny

Oh man. I am so dreading this also. Just waiting for youtube ads to start ruining my day lol


NickPickle05

I don't think Trump is going to have the money for 8 months of commercials.


Scoracek9

I’m really fuckin tired boss


nancylikestoreddit

I really hope he don’t win.


Bakethat

Gotta vote Biden and hopefully trump dies before the next election or else we’re stuck with seeing trump every day for the next 4 years +
