I don’t like how this article hyperbolizes the amount of booing. Compare the moments of booing to the very end with the mix of cheers/jeers where that sounds like the entire audience giving a reaction.
Yes it’s important that jorkin depeanus vance got booed but misrepresenting the level of heckling from the crowd isn’t journalism that respects its readers.
(Edit: yes, I know Lemmy hates Apple, but they’ve been the only one of the five companies - the others are Samsung, Google, Meta, and Microsoft - on the UNICODE board overseeing emojis that have actually bothered to make any new emoji for the past 15 years.)
Lmao, shit no. They’re not even remotely American, either. They were a big deal in Japan in, like, the 90s while we primitives were still using emoticons like simpletons ;)
And even they, with their kanji, could write superior emoticons thusly ツ
I’m no weeb, but give some credit to Apple for dragging us turds into the 21st century and keeping our texts fresh 😉👍
And Apple gave us the rainbow flag emoji, my personal fav 🏳️🌈 to celebrate marriage quality in the United States.
Lay off Vance, everyone! The risk of actually showing how stupid and robotic this guy is is that he might get replaced on the VP candidate slot. He’s a terrible choice that’s driving people away, but if he gets replaced literally a bowl of soup would be a better choice.
Nah I think a replacement does worse. Not because the replacement would be worse, but it shows insane weakness/ stupidity/ inability to have a coherent strategy on the part of a Trump campaign. It shows that these guys don’t know what it takes to win an election; and giving your vote to a team that doesn’t know how to win an election is a wasted vote. Its the same as why Biden was struggling; losing charges compound interest because viability is a key component of whether or not people vote for you. If you aren’t perceived as viable because of your polling, it bites double.
This is my feeling as well. For Trump to replace Vance means Trump admitting he made a bad call. He makes horrible calls constantly, but I don’t see him admitting to a single one.
He wouldn’t admit it. He would find something to blame on Vance (probably wouldn’t be a strain) and then “You’re Fired!” and the red hats would chuckle and never miss a beat.
You get into the role of electors, who are supposed to submit the votes for who best represents the state’s choice or something like that. This was written back when it would take weeks to get to DC, so who knows what would be there.
Yes, but RFK may or may not be. And at this point trump might put the wrong RFK on his ticket and get the brain worm guy instead of the dead politician.
Fuckin savage caption writing.
[clapping] would have been sufficient but they really wanted to let the hearing impaired feel the awkwardness of the moment.
bro the dem crowd boos in a way that it sounds like the candidates are being booed, i think we should probably just stick with the weird allegations to be honest.
The cover photo they used makes it look like he haasaged 10 years in the last few weeks. Stumbling from embarassing screw up to screw up on the world stage when most people are already against you will really wreck your youthful demeanor.
