I love that this pod is allowed to defend dictators but saying fuck is too much for the overlords

ALI ON THE CLARKSON (UP LATE) FARM PODCAST ON 16/07, AT 59:12 YOU SAID LEBANESE CHRISTIANS DO NOT WANT TO BE INVOLVED IN THE CONFLICT AND THAT IS NOT TRUE, ONLY THE MARONITES HOLD THAT POSITION, THE ANTIOCHIAN ORTHODOX AND ARMENIANS STOOD WITH THE PALESTINIAN MUSLIM PEOPLE, RESEARCH YOUR FACTS!

Trump's record is way worse than any recent President. Watch Beau of the Fifith column for a no-nonsense coverage of USA politics

Guys come on this is just a regurgitation of the narrative that has been spewed out by the press. He did a detailed hour long press conference about granular foreign policy and they zoned in on the fact that he screwed up a couple of names which he's been doing since before he was Obama's VP. FFS I do it all the time on this pod! I don't have dimentia!....I think? They're just looking for anything to enforce a narrative that has been cooking from the republicans since before he took office. Trump on the other hand shows legitimate signs of dimentia which I got news for you, forgetting what you were saying in a sentence and slipping up names IS NOT dimentia. Dimentia is what Trump does where his brain shuts down and he starts slurring entire sentences, instead of saying "so glad to be in chicago" he'd say something like "sherrggis berrrrrrrggg chisssssaaaajooorrrr. That's a tried and true tell. Being old is not the same as having dimentia. In regards to him being a liability, you watch what happens if you replace him. The eye of sauron will move to the next person and they'll be just as unpopular because it doesn't matter who the president is, there are entire machines that are well funded that are designed to destory these people's characters. These machines are much more sophisticated than they were in the Obama years, and far more sophisticated than they were in the Clinton years. If you get rid of Biden you lose not only the most effective president since LBJ you lose incumbency only to be replaced with someone else who will be mauled in the republican media machine

They did the same in 2016, and there were also Russian bots helping Bernie. I think it’s just Russia’s attempt at sowing chaos and division. Maybe they do want Trump, but in the past Putin has also explicitly stated that he’d prefer Biden. So I don’t think Russian interference implicates any politician clearly enough, for now

I wonder if ppl worried about the election of a “vicious, racist, ultra-conservative, far-right, warmongering dictator who’ll start WWIII” are just too young to remember 2016. Fair enough: it was 8 years ago, after all!
MSM’s terrifying predictions & accusations (‘Trump’s a Russian asset, the economy will tank’ etc) turned out to be totally false. And all the abject lies about Trump (“He said bleach kills Covid!” “He called WWII soldiers ‘suckers & losers’!”) has turned MSM into the boy who cried wolf.
Why believe yet another anti-Trump accusation, after 8 years of watching the media lie, over & over again, about a president whose record in office is arguably no worse than that of any other recent president?

Biden’s gaffes are minor compared to what Trump intends to do with Project 25. Scary times ahead for Americans who aren’t white, straight, conservative and Christian.

Not defending anyone so don't put words in my mouth; you will see that I called them "reprehensible" above, so don't strawman my argument and basically say I'm defending Nazis.
You're proving my point because you have an idea of left vs right as being about workers rights whereas other people would say it's about gender, guns, taxes, healthcare, immigration... Take your pick? You also called austerity "centrist" in another reply... Based on what?
And jeez, using encyclopaedia Britannica is about as useful as using reader's digest as a reference. Are you seriously arguing that you think it's a good idea for SUPPOSEDLY UNBIASED AND BALANCED media to label political parties as "the good guys" vs "the bad guys". I couldn't give two shits if independent media says far-right/far-left, but the taxpayer funded ABC news is meant to be factual, not manipulative.

Jordan really denying reality in this one. Biden is too old, straight up. When introducing Zelensky he called him Putin, literaly the worst possible name he could have said. The man is just a liability.
Don't tell me its just a beat up by the republicans, I have eyes and ears, I can literally see this guy failing over and over again. US politics is so fucked.

https://www.britannica.com/topic/National-Rally-France They are literally described as far fright in Britannica. Far right and far left are measurable on their policies, one being more pro-workers the other more pro-establishment. And, again, you're literally defending a party founded by Nazi collaborationist, why are you saying objectively wrong statements in defence of this party?

Calling them far right is an opinion though, and no right and left aren't objective at all as no one agrees on where the lines are to be drawn between left/far-left/centre/centre-left/centre-right/right/far-right. I don't object to the colloquial use of these terms but the ABC and other news orgs that pretend to be impartial should be objective and use the party name rather than use loaded terms that sway public opinion... Even when the party is reprehensible.

"Far right" isn't "we believe in austerity", Austerity is an incredibly centrist policy. To base whether a party is far right or not based off of view of austerity politics shows an incredible lack of understanding of politics.

Jordan brain rot, conservatives are dumb everywhere. British conservatives are freaking out over a non-existent boat issue saying "let's just shoot them when they get to the shore".
It's not difficult to find out why Project 2025 is bad. It's pretty clear, they want to stack every single public service sector with purely Trump loyalists who are willing to break rules for Trump and conservative dogma.

They're objectively far-right. Politics isn't just 'opinion', while it may be relative there is still objective measurements. Her father was a literal Nazi, like actually, like genuinely a collaborationist in WW2.

On Marine Le Pen, I don't know squat about her, but ABC news captions her as "far-right politician" which raises an eyebrow or two. Objective reporting would caption her party name right?
The same way the ABC will report "Labour... Blah blah blah" when they do something controversial in power, and say "the government" when liberal-national party is in power.
