  • Sounds accurate. He thinks things work like 80s action movies. He probably literally got mad when they told him Rambo was a fictional character, so they had to force some guy to legally change his name to Rambo so Trump would be happy.

    The idea that you can just “send” “special forces” “assassins” to kill cartel leaders in a foreign country is fairly challenging just as an accomplishsble mission, let alone factoring in the potential and very serious blowback from the cartels AND the Mexican government.

    $20 says he recently watched Sicario or something.

    A focus on appearance and current trends? My brother in Feist, you just described everyone under the age of like 40.

    Edit: I guess Wikipedia says “modern hipsters” basically declined/disappeared around 2016-2017, which feels right.


  • Trump’s support among women increased in 2024 compared to 2020, despite the common narrative about this. 7% more women voted for him, and this increase wasn’t just among white women. In fact, for the first time since 2016, Trump actually lost support from white women.

    The biggest shifts came from Latinas: 20% more voted for Trump than in 2020, continuing a steady rise in Latina support since 2016. He also gained 5% more support from Asian women. Beyond women, Trump made gains with voters under 30 and most men, but his biggest wins were with Latine voters and the youth vote overall.

    It’s a weird dynamic: an anti-woman political platform seems to increase support from women. Sure, there are probably other big issues at play, but the data suggests targeting women in a platform mainly turns off people with higher education levels—without pushing away women themselves.
