2020 Election MEGAthread

The moral of that movie was that we're too dumb and would drop him out of em if we did! Haha

As an aside, I sure love that gif. It really does sum up how I can really only act during all this, because my role is so insignificant. May as well enjoy the ride! (and if it all settles, at least I had fun with this live action appocoylpse movie.) I literally feel like Im watching a movie sometimes when I'm browsing the news on YouTube haha.

I live in one of the yellow sky areas, that day was so awesome I was like, "well lol this is it, cant convince me the end isnt nigh now." [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Probably been awhile since you've seen that flick--but what happened in the scene was the plane suffered damage to its electrical systems in an earlier missile attack which disabled the bomb bay door motors. Nobody noticed that particular damage due to other more pressing problems until the crew tried (and failed) to open the doors as their attack run commenced. The Major frantically crawled into the bomb bay and on top of the bomb so as to reach and repair the damaged area. Once he succeeded and the bay doors opened he was left trapped with no way out, mere seconds from release, and dropped with the bomb he was sitting on. No stupidity present--the character was portrayed as having selflessly sacrificed himself for his mission. The entire aircrew played their roles totally straight in (deliberate) contrast with the rest of the film being a somewhat absurd comedy.

I contrast that with a TV flick called "By Dawn's Early Light" which also has a B-52 crew as characters. Opposite to the earlier film, in this one the U.S. actually is subjected to nuclear attack, but the B-52 crew in this film wusses out (in spite of their friends and families mostly being dead) and refuses to conduct their nuclear counterattack mission, instead choosing to go rogue. You don't want crews like that in a shooting war.

The guy who was talking about fluoride that caused the whole disaster is what I was referring to [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] but my second comeback was way better anyway hehe! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wow - a lot of TDS patients on this thread desperately clinging to any possible thing they can to ignore Joe Biden's decades of 'pay-to-play' politics.

Anywho - Biden's now endorsing transgender activism for pre-adolescent children.

Much cringe
Yikes
Imagine

No wonder his own son is so messed up.

Other side corrupt bad guys, my side good guys! Come on dude, Trump's a con man and a retard who can't turn a profit at a casino. Biden is going senile and sucked big fat donkey dick when he was lucid and is still a better choice.

Folks treating political parties like sports teams aren't doing the nation any favors. You've got to be able to call out your own bad apples, too, not just those on the other side.

Earmarks get shit done. We're crumbling in deadlock because no politician can really "bring home the bacon" for their districts anymore. Pay to play my ass, retvrn to tradition!

Nah he's really not a better choice. I'd love it if he was, but he will capitulate to basically any pressure from insane far left extremists. Trump, while a giant asshole, is not an establishment politician. This is why people like him. He falls ass backward into decent and sometimes good policy because he's too rich to be bought by anyone.

I know it's funny that he's a retarded doofus with funny hair and used to host a reality show, but most politicians hide their shortcomings at any cost. He doesn't; you know what you're getting. It's hard not to notice that he will actually answer any question, even if it makes him look terrible. People are so desperately wanting somebody to just do that, it's the exact same mechanism that won him 2016.

Meanwhile biden is like "well I'll give you my answer on court packing if and when I reach a decision and if you'll just sign on the dotted line here you can recieve all of my opinions for only 9 dollars a month jack!"

Trump policy is 90% rubber stamping what Mitch McConnel wants, then random twitter rants and undoing anything Obama did. He's a retarded tool being used by the right the same way you decry Biden will supposedly be used by the "insane far left extremists."


Meanwhile Trump is like, "well I'll give you my tax returns when they're not under audit. I won't say that I will agree with election results, covid will be gone in a couple weeks, covid will be gone when summer hits, I made all that up and then lied to America about the severity back when it started" and many other non answers and lies. If an issue with Biden is he won't directly answer a court packing question you should at least be consistent and dislike when Trump does it.


"Insane far left extremists" fucking lmao. Turn off Fox News or Rush or whatever newfangled right wing propaganda rag give you these ideas.

[BlackBellamy]

Sounds like something an insane far left extremist would say.
