Election season is getting interesting. Remember boys and girls. Going to be so many shills shilling. Watch yourselves.

Did you see this one? I know people say there are shills, but it's something to see them in action.

Anything with new accounts is irrelevant. Be more on the lookout for older accounts with "history" shilling. Similar to the reddit accounts with like 10 years or the twitter "verified" tags. They are the ones who have actual sway on making people trust them. Not some stupid few hour account.

You know what, okay....I know zilch about politics in the USA so I would like the Americans(or experts) to regale me. What positive things has Trump done during this term as president that makes so many conservatives put him on such a high pedestal other than being a 'professional' troll on Twitter 24/7?

What are the worst things that could happen if Biden wins the election and becomes President of the United States? To me personally, there wouldn't be much of a difference other than there would probably be less BS protests and stupid drama than if Trump actually got a second term.

It depends if you're a traditional conservative or a normie republican. Trump appeals to the latter. Normies want tax cuts, manufacturing jobs, a president talking about how great America is, someone who appears to have balls, greatest economy ever, the forced transparency of medicine costs to bring down healthcare prices, fewer (illegal) migrants depressing wages, someone calling-out the bullshit mainstream news, conservative supreme court judges, etc. Ask the Qtards for all the stuff I've forgotten. Trump, from a normie republican perspective, is the best president in decades. Most of all Trump, presents himself as someone who isn't another career bureaucrat. None of the "swamp creatures" have any idea about day-to-day Americans; they are condescending, pandering, bought-and-paid-for, and they will ever actually do anything or make any real change. With Trump, there was a chance he might because he wasn't from the system and because he's already so rich that he lacks the financial motivations that drive most politicians.

Of course, as a traditional conservative, Trump has been a huge letdown. The economy is fake, Trump has fewer deportations than Obama, he is currently undertaking some of the biggest socialist spending and debt-accumulation of all time, he says nothing about the globalisation of the world or the powers that be, and most of the good things he has done have been skin deep. All of his executive orders can be undone, his non-interventionist talk hasn't ended any wars, none of the deep state has been touched, he dogwhistles to White people while all of his action supports only non-Whites, and for every actual action he takes, he must make 1000 tweets on which he doesn't follow-through. He is 99% talk.

As for Biden, he represents the establishment. Sanders was taken-out because he would have been like Trump and tried to shake things-up. Biden will not. Biden will happily let the greasy deep state continue its subversion of America. I agree that there won't be much of a difference, and that's the problem. There is a long term trend of worsening conditions for Americans as the elite uses the state to exploit the people and pit them against each other and this needs to be corrected. Biden will allow this process to return to its regular function and America will continue to die a slow, painful death. There is the question of whether he is replaced by Harris, who is more progressive, but I think she is mostly talk and wouldn't be allowed to achieve much in the same way Trump has been road blocked by the real power. Their interest is not in an accelerated push for communism because they want to continue to drain as long as possible.

This election, therefore and as you say, is surprisingly inconsequential. If Trump wins, he will continue to be a do-nothing cuckold and you'll get some tax cuts, stock market gains, and it's funny to watch TDS. If Biden wins, you're going to see more of the same foreign wars, blatant corruption, steady globalisation, and career bureaucrats lining their pockets like you have for the last few decades. Normie republicans would love another Trump, but I think traditional conservatives see him as a pressure relief valve on the hostility building in the people against their rulers. If you're a leftist, Biden isn't going to do anything radically progressive and they will be disappointed too. The next 4 years will be dull, I suspect.

TL:DR:

Trump pros: despite being a narcissistic confrontational fatfuck he really generally hasn’t fucked things up any worse with his theatrics.

Biden cons: seems to stand for more memevirus government overreach which is bad for CowboyDancer’s social life. Also highly appeals to SJW cult which isn’t really his fault, but Jesus fuck I’m tired of being told I’m the epitome of evil for being a fit white male when I’m a poor first generation Eastern European immigrant who isn’t racist/sexist/etc in any way.
