Polls: Society & Politics

If law and order broke down these are the types of people who would murder you to survive..

Out of genuine curiosity, To the people that associate themselves more with the political left, what is your general perception of a conservative?

To the people that associate themselves with the political right, what is your perception of a liberal?

And which way do you lean on most issues?

Not attacking either political side when it comes to this idea. This is an open ended non-partisan question.

Anyway I would absolutely love to see JD Vance debate Kamala Harris and Tim Walz debate Donald Trump.

This would be a very badly needed and informative vantage point for American voters to better analyze VPs/presidential candidates. Reason being it would be much more challenging for all the candidates to prepare for their opponents which is a good thing. It would force candidates to think fast on the spot. Get the truth out.

The VP would likely be the aggressor given they can criticize the presidential candidate given they are the ultimate decision makers when it comes to policy. Also the VP would have to defend their own running mates with the opposing presidential candidate’s criticism. It would be like a hostile & unpredictable interview but not necessarily a fist fight.

It would also give more attention and prominence to the VP’s role, abilities and personality. The VP is after all just one gun shot, heart attack, etc. from being the president of the United States.

If both sides could agree to two debates (and maybe do a coin toss on which match up goes first) it be so much better for the American voter. Because it would expose more strengths and weakness of all the candidates. Give a much better picture of what the American voter is really buying.

Anyway I posted this as a non-partisan question. Please avoid attacking Trump, Kamala, etc right off the bat. However I would love to see this and I imagine so would most other people.

I think if this strike lasts more than two weeks , Trump is President #47 .

The US is producing record amounts of fossil fuels right now, but he's going to open up more federal lands to drilling and fracking, and he says that'll cut engery prices by 50% within a year.

"As POLITICO Magazine has noted before, Vance is the first White House wannabe to wear facial hair in 80 years. Our appearance is fundamental to our body language, and research indicates that voters see beards as (surprise, surprise) more masculine," Navarro wrote. "That can be positive to some, reading as strength and competence. But to others, especially women, it can be negative, conveying aggression and opposition to feminist ideals." - Politico: Vance's beard a sign of 'aggression' to women, Walz's 'saucer' eyes showed his 'passion' www.msn.com/.../ar-AA1rC3A8?ocid=sapphireappshare

Felony murder is essentially where anyone involved in a felony that results in the death of a person can be charged with murder. The classic example is that if there's a bank robbery where one robber murders a bank teller the getaway driver can also be charged with murder.

In Minnesota they've recently changed the statute in a manner which will allow potentially hundreds of convicted murderers to be set free. Do you think this is just or unjust?

Again if you hate fact checkers it’s because you hate facts. Like, false, Haitians aren’t eating pets.

State A: 32nd in crime rate, 48th lowest poverty rate, 20th lowest unemployment rate, 17th best education in the country, above average health care system, 2nd healthiest population

State B: 29th in crime rate, 18th lowest poverty rate, 41st lowest unemployment rate, 27th in education, below average health care system, 41st healthiest population

When you vote in an election, how do you vote? Straight Party Line? The best candidate for each office? Against the Party you don't like? Randomly, no reason? Or something else?

Please vote in this poll.

If iran will do its plans to shoot rockets at israel, how should we n israel hit iran?

Economist Paul Krugman noted: “We’ve all become desensitized, but it’s amazing how at this point the Trump campaign rests entirely on denouncing things that aren’t happening—[an] imaginary bad economy, imaginary runaway crime and now an imaginary failure of Biden and Harris to respond to natural disaster.”

FEMA spokesperson Jaclyn Rothenberg responded to a post claiming that FEMA was refusing to help conservative Americans, saying: “This is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus.”

In contrast, numerous posters today noted that Trump repeatedly withheld federal aid from Democratic governors—including that of North Carolina—after disasters in their states. After the Trump campaign organized a fundraiser for victims of the hurricane, David Frum of The Atlantic reminded readers that in 2019, Trump was fined $2 million and three of his children were ordered to take classes as a penalty for taking for their own use funds from charities they ran.

When a reporter asked President Biden and Democratic North Carolina governor Roy Cooper to respond to Trump’s accusation that they are ignoring the disaster, Biden responded: “He's lying. And the governor told him he was lying…. I've spoken to the governor, spent time with him…. I don't know why he does this. And the reason I get so angry about it, I don't care about what he says about me, but I care what he communicates to the people that are in need. He implies that we're not doing everything possible. We are…. I assume you heard the Republican Governor of Georgia talk about that he was on the phone with me more than once. So that's simply not true. And it's irresponsible.”
