It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

So what is the funniest scenario for 2024. I think it would be Biden running with Hillary as his VP, then losing to Nikki Haley with Trump as her VP, running on the platform of becoming the first female president.

Oh, so THAT'S why all the Bidenists and bots have been getting super pissed when you bring up how much the Biden campaign is following HRC's losing strategies from 2016.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 41 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If she actually gets the VP spot there's 0% chance Biden wins. It's already vanishingly low, but with her as VP it's impossible.

[–] MattsAlt@hexbear.net 32 points 2 years ago

Practically means you're voting for her too with his chances of dying in office or being debilitated are high. Hell, he may get COVID with this new wave and all the people he interacts with traveling due to worldwide conflicts hitting fever pitches

Biden's gonna step down for health reasons before the nomination and all the super-duper-delegates will nominate Hillary as a compromise.

[–] Goferking0@ttrpg.network 31 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We'd be screwed as a nation but it would be hilarious to see her lose again to the orange

I'll laugh the entire time I am constructing my hermitage in the deepest woods.

She's electable IF YOU VOTE FOR HER!

[–] sexywheat@hexbear.net 34 points 2 years ago

I already figured Biden was gonna lose the next election. Now I am 100% certain of it.

She should divorce Bill and marry Trump. That is the objectively funniest thing that could happen.

[–] ProfessorAdonisCnut@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

Consider: she becomes Biden's running mate for 2024, somehow they win despite losing the popular vote to Trump, the day of the inauguration Biden has a heart attack on the stairs to Air Force One, dying instantly, Kamala becomes first female pres for a day causing Hillary to descend into rabid insanity, the 25th ammendment is invoked and Marjorie Taylor Greene (having somehow become Speaker) becomes the second woman to serve as President

Need to create a rival for Barron to keep him on his toes

Name the new successor Barack just to make it more delicious.

[–] Lovely_sombrero@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

Well yes, but I'm talking about more realistic scenarios. I can see them ditching Kamala, it would be so funny because KHive would go insane.

[–] IHadTwoCows@lemm.ee 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Serious question:

Is this a joke? Is this satire?

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

Satire, no. A joke? A cruel one to be sure and it’s being played on us.

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

I think it'll be when Hillary has Joe release a series of ads that darken Trump's skin and strongly imply he's probably a secret "mulatto"

Then Biden slips on shit and breaks his hip at the Iowa State Fair

The DNC thinks about annointing Kamala but blinks. They approach Oprah about a surprise, last-minute bid, but she's not interested. They finally settle on Beto O'Rourke. He loses every state to Trump.

If you thought his poll numbers were bad now, just wait!

Queen TERF is obviously the key to a Dem sweep

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

I hope she pulls some House of Cards shit and manage to whip the nation into voting for her as president and Bill as VP

[–] Dr_Gabriel_Aby@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

I’m going to be writing her in for my 3rd straight election. How many times have you voted for Hilary?

ROUND TWO BABYYY LETS FUCKING GOOO lets-fucking-go

[–] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Three, remember she lost to Obama after she tried to call him a socialist and people believed her.

[–] Egon@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

She also started the born-in-kenya runor lol

[–] Hohsia@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

This is how you win!

[–] TheaJo@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Absolutely wild. 2024 election gonna have Trump AND Biden losing. To what? No one knows. But there's NO way either are getting anything resembling a win.

[–] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago

trump can win unless a court literally rules that he's not allowed to run. i think people massively overestimate how much a criminal conviction would hurt his chances.

[–] AlpineSteakHouse@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

Biden V. Trump where Biden somehow has a pretty good lead about a month or two before the general. Hillary decides to kill Biden in order to become president and he gets heart-attacked-gunned. Hillary takes over and the Dem party immediately drops 8 points leading to another L for Hillary.

Let's do this!

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

This is all really funny, but the joke is fucking stale at this point. We did this twice already, four times for half of these people.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Biden running with Hillary as his VP, then suddenly dying one month before the election.

It's still Her turn!
