Cruxifux , in Second Republican primary debate had the lowest TV viewership since 2015

If trump isn’t in the debate it’s not worth watching to be honest.

meco03211 ,

Oddly enough it’s still not worth it if he’s there. I’ve seen the exact same scene every time I flush after dropping a deuce. Adding an unflushable nugget to the bowl doesn’t change much.

bustrpoindextr ,

It’d be the same thing just slightly louder and less coherent…

ChonkyOwlbear , in Second Republican primary debate had the lowest TV viewership since 2015

They are all running for VP candidate but are too dumb to realize it.

betwixthewires ,

I highly doubt Amy of them gets the VP slot on the R ballot in the general.

Zorque ,

They're well aware of it, it's why they're not really badmouthing Trump.

morphballganon ,

Christie did in the first debate if I heard correctly

Hiccup ,

But that’s the thing, even if they’re the VP on ticket, all they’re going to do is sink the ticket further. Voting for any of these buffoons, whether it be locally, nationally, VP or president, is just asinine. They’re all condescending as fuck and they all think we’re too stupid to realize how much they suck. It’s weird, but I miss the days of Bob Dole and McCain.

Except we all know Trump will pick his VP during an Adderall fuelled constipation party on social media. So it could be either of these morons, regardless of their debating performance (I use those words liberally).

Or it could be Kanye.

ChonkyOwlbear ,

I heard someone point out that Trump might want a dynasty and pick Don Jr. That’s probably the most likely option now that I think about it. His son is one person who will be loyal no matter what and and someone who would be even worse than him if he is removed from office.

I hope this makes workers…more motivated. With my food.

What a surprise? Why would anyone watch when the front runner isint even going to be there.

Kalcifer , (edited ) in Second Republican primary debate had the lowest TV viewership since 2015

[…] lowest viewership since 2015

Hasn’t there only been one other debate since then…? That’s rather misleading.

Th3D3k0y ,

lowest ratings since the first one a little bit ago.

Is the article only looking at presidential primary debates, or all Republican primary debates?

mrbubblesort ,
@mrbubblesort@kbin.social avatar

It also represents — by a significant margin — the lowest TV audience for any Republican presidential debate since the start of the 2016 cycle, when Trump first became a candidate.

RaineV1 ,

Probably looking at all republican debates since 2015. In short, the lowest its been since Trump.

instamat , in Michael Gambon, 'Harry Potter' actor who played Dumbledore, dies at 82

This is the second actor that’s died after playing dumbledore. The only conclusion is the part is cursed.

CeruleanRuin ,

Yes. It is cursed with old age.

sygnius ,

Waiting for the third one to die now…

CitizenKong ,

I for one, hope Jude Law will stay with us for a long time still.

dynamojoe , in Second Republican primary debate had the lowest TV viewership since 2015

Nobody wants to watch a bunch of losers kiss the ass of an elephant who isn’t even in the room (honorable mention to C. Christie who clearly does not kiss Trump’s ass)

meco03211 ,

Chris Christie. Maybe the least smelly turd in the group. He still smells like shit and now the question is whether he’s only trying to separate himself from the others while still planning to deliver the exact same steaming mess any of them would. Is he hedging his bet that trump is falling to the charges?

squiblet ,
@squiblet@kbin.social avatar

At this point, they all are counting on the chance that he won't be able to run for one reason or another.

betwixthewires ,

Christie was a spoiler candidate in the 2016 election for Trump. I don’t know what his angle is right now, but he’s a Trump ass kisser for sure and his strong statement nonsense is some kind of game.

vodkasolution , in Fast food workers to get a $20 minimum wage in CA

what was the mininum before?

State wide, $15.50. This will remain in affect until April 1st, 2024.

whats to watch. a bunch of un-empathetic sycophants pretending to have a platform or relevance to an audience already "not votin for a lib"

rockSlayer ,

It was even worse than you’re imagining.

Astroturfed ,

I dunno, I’m imagining them doing the Nazi salute to punctuate the end of their hate speech.

spacecowboy , in Second Republican primary debate had the lowest TV viewership since 2015

Who wants to watch a bunch of mentally ill psychopaths talk over each other? I sure don’t.

jmd_akbar ,

To the most of the world, they are “mentally ill psychopaths”, but to their rabid supporters, they can do no wrong. They will still watch them, cheer them on, and support them and vote for them…

spacecowboy ,

Clearly not that many of them.

kaitco ,

That’s the thing, though. They don’t actually have rabid supporters. Trump does, and they want his supporters to support them.

That’s why no one is interested in watching their debates. The people who actually care about debates aren’t interested in their nonsense, and the ones whose vote they are courting are just waiting for Trump to give them the Go signal.

alternative_factor ,
@alternative_factor@kbin.social avatar

Yup I've looked at conservative spaces online and it's all still Trump Trump Trump! I was honestly pretty surprised that they don't want to try anyone else considering how much everyone else hates Trump but that's just how out of touch they are I guess.

cmbabul ,

For a significant portion of them, I think everyone else hating him is a feature

ech ,

I was honestly pretty surprised that they don’t want to try anyone else considering how much everyone else hates Trump

In their eyes, that’s one of his best features. The Republican party’s singular common goal these days is to be as contrarian as possible, and the angrier everyone else is with them, the better they figure they’re doing.

JJROKCZ ,

They like him BECAUSE everyone else hates him

Wogi ,

Wasn’t Jersey shore insanely popular?

meco03211 ,

They were running their mouths not trying to run the country.

Hiccup ,

It showed that America, if it is going to keep its greatness, is in desperate need of new politicians or a new generation of politicians. All these people on the debate stage have no clue how hard it is out there right now or what people stree going through. Desperate people need help, solutions, and answers. These debaters/ Republicans aren’t it.

SheeEttin ,

Not the tryouts for it.

pruwybn , in Second Republican primary debate had the lowest TV viewership since 2015
@pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

So in other words, lower than the ones in 2019?

nocturne213 ,

Was there a repugnican debate in 2019?

pruwybn ,
@pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

You’re right, there wasn’t. I didn’t read the article at first since I thought the title was clickbait, but it seems like they’re actually saying the ratings were lower than any debate in 2015 or later. They just phrased it in a confusing way.

QuarterSwede , in This isn't theft of need. A more insidious type of crime is pushing some stores to close
@QuarterSwede@lemmy.world avatar

ORC wrangling is sort of fun. They think they get away with it but then get involved in a police blitz and go to jail for quite a while. What happens is They police and store asset protection / loss prevention allow them to steal products until they hit the federal $ limit to be a federal crime. A blitz occurs and they get funneled to police waiting outside to arrest them. I’ve probably seen 5 ORC rings busted using this method.

toxicbubble , in Fast food workers to get a $20 minimum wage in CA

cool, now give everyone a living wage, maybe a universal income, & you’ll have solved poverty

cabron_offsets ,

(X) doubt. You’ll just inflate shit. Need government regs on corps if you wanna solve poverty.

Alto ,
@Alto@kbin.social avatar

These are not mutually exclusive policy points.

cabron_offsets ,

And your suggestion is simplistic and insufficient to achieve your end.

Alto ,
@Alto@kbin.social avatar

Care to tell me what suggestion I made?

Burn_The_Right ,

That’s not fair. As a conservative, his reading comprehension is profoundly poor.

iAmTheTot ,
@iAmTheTot@kbin.social avatar

You’ll just inflate shit.

We'll let's see, inflation is running rampant irregardless of wage increases, so I think I'll go with the wage increases.

Zaktor ,

Need government regs on corps if you wanna solve poverty.

Regulations like “what is the minimum salary you can pay your employees”?
