Why were so many of the republican candidates for the election TV personalities?

I guess it’s fitting because republicans are incompetent at governing anyway, but one must wonder why voters actually go for them. They are completely useless. They don’t know shit about how the government even works. If it was up to me, the only people who should be allowed to run for office are lawyers or those educated in public policy or economics.

At least they lose. Oz lost his race and Kari Lake is about to lose hers. Her candidacy is definitely the most satisfying of them all to crumble.

It’s a beautiful thing, this election. Common sense and democracy prevailed.

 
Not sure that two is “so many.”

The party that gave us Senator Al Franken should never want to bring up TV personalities being treated as serious politicians.
 
" i dont support frac.. i support, dont, do support fracking. I do support fracking"
Thats "common sense" to complete fucking morons :rolleyes:

/----/ The actual answer, for those interested, is that TV personalities have the advantage of being trained to appear on Television and on stage. President Reagan's Hollywood training and experience remembering lines and playing to an audience gave him a distinct advantage. They also are a household name with a following. It helped Trump the same way. So when a candiate presents him/herself for office, having TV experience is a giant plus.

You people are so bizarre….you parrot this retarded bullshit while paying $5 for fuel, while 8% inflation takes it toll on your plantation dwelling pet human dark people, while interest rates skyrocket, while 5 million beaners invade our nation, while we are on the brink of economic collapse and nuclear war.
The strangest thing is; you can’t point us to one single Mexicrat ran city that isn’t a dirty, disgusting, divided dangerous, poverty stricken super shithole…..Where is ‘your way’ working?

Lol why would a media personality be able to fix any of those problems?

Why are so many democrats lawyers?

I would take pretty much any profession other than the most hated profession in the world.

That's why lawyer jokes are the best


So a lawyer was so large that, when he died, the undertaker couldn’t find a coffin big enough to hold the body. So, the undertaker gave him an enema and buried him in a shoebox.
 
You tell me…how did Trump do it?
Because republicans are fucking stupid? In the general in 2016 he lost the popular vote. He only eked out a win because he won tiny margins in the swing states. He royally fucked up in 2020 by losing by 7 million votes.

He’s a useless sack of dog shit and you voted for that. Have some self respect.

He 'eked out a win', because the popular voted doesnt decide the presidency


school children know that.


WHY DON'T YOU?
 
Let's take both Trump and Oz as examples. Here were two men that came up in fame as Progressives. Trump was a life long donator to the DNC, giving politicians like Schumer millions and was pro-abortion, etc. However, he saw a chance politically to oppose them.

One got past the goalie. The DNC helped make him, but could not control him

The same can be said of Oz. Here is a man who was allowed to become famous thanks to help from Oprah. But then he opposed her cult the DNC, and she turned on him and endorsed Fetterman instead.

Again, this was not suppose to happen, but when they have to, the destroy people they make rich and famous once they come out publicly against the cult of the rich and elite like Oprah and Schumer.

Neither would have been allowed their fame and fortune had they known they would escape the DNC plantation, but when they do, they need to be made examples of like Trump.

I didn’t say the popular vote decided the presidency you idiot. I’m simply pointing out how him losing the popular vote is a big reason why he had razor thin electoral victory. It’s also an indication of how unpopular he is with Americans. He’s a goddamn useless sack of dog shit like I said lol
 
Winner: 304Main Opponent: 227Total/Majority: 538/270

304-227 is NOT razor thin.


(something else school children know)
 
You are trying to debate people with the mental acuity of Fetterman and Biden

Good luck with that.
just holding a mirror up to his face, so he can see who the real fool is.
