TDTOM is not campaigning.
I wasn't referring to him, I was referring to the Trump campaign when I said 'great campaigning...'
I don't know what TDTOM was doing because he clearly didn't respond with anything other than he was embarrassed.

Is X running for President?
The decision to host on X was made by the candidate/candidate's campaign advisers, no?
If you can't make the right decisions to even host a livestream, how can you make the right decisions to run a country?
X is a platform that has had technical failures before so there's a history there.
Was Trump forced to host on X?

re: Elon responds regarding the letter from the UK about the Trump interview

How is this a letter from the UK?
It's a letter from the European Commission, of which the UK is not a member.

This doesn't seem like a very strong analysis. Is this peer-reviewed research?
For a start, it just states gun ownership by race and then goes onto argue that homicide rates couldn't possibly be because of gun ownership. That's not a robust analysis - it could be the case that people committing homicides have access to more guns regardless of race.
And it then states that US white homicide rates are not particularly high compared with their peers either which is also massively misleading. Because a homicide rate of 2.6 per 100,000 is still pretty high compared with most Western nations.
Take England for example which is multiracial. If you compare like-for-like, their homicide rate among whites is going to be much lower than the general population as well. The figures I could find suggest that the homicide rate among whites in England and Wales is 0.9 per 100,000.
So comparing English whites with American whites, American whites have a homicide rate 3x higher than English whites.

Occam's razor:
Someone being arrested directly in front of the tea shop where the stabbing occurred suggests that the individual themselves is the attacker.

That's Leicester Square and the shop front is TWG Tea.

They've not been peaceful at all. They've been destroying shops and looting.

Of course she plays identity politics.
She's a politician, I'm not sure what victory you think you're achieving here by stating the obvious :lol:
All politics is about identity at the end of the day, every voter has an identity and appealing to that is part of a politician's job.

re: Kamala's "Jamaican grandfather of African descent"

You've made the entire conversation into race politics instead of the issues which if you criticize Kamala/Democrats for doing, you've gone ahead and ensured the conversation will be about it.
On the issues, you can definitely make the case that Trump deserves to be president in 2024 - border crisis, inflation etc.
But you've turned the conversation into Kamala's ethnicity which isn't going to be a win at all. Every second we're debating Kamala's ethnicity, we're not talking about the actual issues for why Trump should be president.
I'm sure some are bothered by it but they're already voting for Trump anyway.
This isn't going to win people who are voting for Trump on issues and risks turning them off.
I just don't see how this is a win for Trump at all.
