1. I agree that there would be some of this in response for sure.

2. I disagree that there would be much, though, and I don’t think it would move any needle in any direction. People already committed to voting Harris would get a dopamine fix, and that’s about all that would happen.

3. I always feel embarrassed for people who say they were turned off voting for someone because they don’t like celebrities telling them how to vote. Do they ever realize that this makes them the only group whose vote was influenced by the celebrities? What a self-own.

4. It wouldn’t matter anyway, because the above comments are right about one thing: Donald Trump would immediately pitch a huge fit and make it about himself. Before anybody had time to say or think anything about the swift appearance, a huge wave of weird shit Trump posted or said about it would take up all of the conversation.
i agree!

Are you going to sit there and tell me that there were no Jamila members who were convinced to vote for Ralph Nader in 2000 after hearing Ed’s “both parties are the same” speech throughout the summer tour?

If it's true Barron set that up, he should be campaign manager.

guess i'd need to watch the whole thing for more context.

i imagine this was done to normalize trump, yeah? make him seem like a regular-ass dude, which he very well may be behind the WWE persona he displays in public.

i don't fault theo. he seems like a regular-ass, genuinely curious dude.

I don't know who that guy is, or why I should care about that video.

comedian podcasts are out of control, but Theo is one of the better ones.

I know that Theo Vonn has turned into a somewhat successful comedian and pod cast host but the idea that Trump would do sit down, hour interview with some lunkhead from MTV’s Road Rules/The Challenge is bonkers to me.

what's the point of highlighting that conversation? is it because we all assume there's no way trump didn't do mountains of coke in the 80s, so he's bullshitting there as usual?

I've kinda never assumed he did tbh. He's famously (alcohol-wise) sober and I suspect as a younger gent had to actually show up and do some work. I'd imagine he would have fucked up publicly far far more over the years if he was any sort of drug user.

if trump simply stuck to being a TV personality, it would largely be fine with me

he is funny and entertaining (and also racist and a shithead)

there is a place for that on TV

it’s when bozos vote that thing into the role of president that it all becomes very problematic

I don’t think he’s ever done drugs. He’s just naturally a stupid, stupid man. An utter imbecile. Coming up, he never had to do anything for himself, having daddy take care of everything and keep him under control. (As much as one can.) He bailed him out of bankruptcies. As soon as Fred died, you can see what he does left to his own devices and ideas. Grift and coN, grift and con…
