I’ve seen some random videos of Tucker saying that suicides are way up, economy is way down, addiction and crime are rampant and the cost of living is insanity where nobody can really thrive in this environment.

On the otherside, inflation is slowing, people are working and it feels we’re slowly getting back to some normalcy.

What’s your personal perspective on how life is right now/since 2020? Is that the biggest factor for determining who you will vote for in 2024?

    The fact that there’s an incumbent in office means they win their primary by default.

    You said that they win their primary by default.

    They do not, you are mistaken.

    It’s kind of adorable you think that means there’s a chance.

    Always a chance, bbe

    He ran against Jimmy Carter- an incumbent democrat… so no, he didn’t beat an incumbent in his party’s primary. Wow, man, you really don’t get any of this, do you? You are fun.

    Man you didn’t read the link at all, did you? You still got a lot to learn, buddy! I gave you the entire wikipedia page, but apparently I have to dig it up for you, still!

    “In the 1976 Republican Party presidential primaries, President Gerald Ford, who was never elected president or vice president, and ascended to the presidency after being appointed vice president by Richard Nixon, faced a challenge from former California governor Ronald Reagan. Ford’s popularity with voters suffered from his decision to pardon Nixon for his role in the Watergate scandal.[6] Reagan won 24 primaries, but was narrowly defeated by Ford on the first ballot of the 1976 Republican National Convention. Ford went on to lose the general election.”

      I love that you’re actually looking this stuff up now and learning new things. Now circle back and apply what you just learned about incumbents and primaries to RFK Jr’s chances.

        I love how you blatantly say false things, and when you’re corrected time after time proving you wrong, you just bypass it and act like you’re right.

          I’m just curious if you can apply what you’ve learned. Do you still think RFK Jr. is a ‘top candidate’ and comparing his blatherings to Biden’s policy makes any sense?

            I’m curious, after trying to fact check me twice, and you being wrong, how you still think you have any voice in this convo. Look, you learned a bit today, it’s fine a lot of people are overconfident with their intelligence. Take the L and dip.

              Have you lost confidence in your RFK Jr schpiel since you learned about incumbency? You wanted to talk about that before but now you’re dodging the question completely.

                Homie, you tried to fact check me twice, only to be wrong, both times. Read up, I sent you the link, I sent you direct quotes showing you’re wrong, admit you were off but that’s okay, then we can have this convo.

                  I’m glad to see you’ve realized how ridiculous the RFK Jr. comparison was. I get why you’d want to avoid revisiting that now.

                    I’m not. I just asked if you’d prefer one candidate over the other. Your rude response and defensiveness, along with you being objectively wrong and still pushing your lies, is very off putting and not a great way to have a conversation.
