But for at least a third of the people the stamp should have worked correctly, as MAGAs wouldn't have a problem licking Trumps backside?

A smarter man than me said:
The top %1 are protected by the law and not bounded by it, the other 99% are bounded by the law and not protected by it.

He's not wrong.

Its loosely based on a real quote: President Hindenberg of Weimar Germany said that the only office Hitler was qualified for was Postmaster General, so he can lick me from behind

In the before-times the adhesive was gum arabic, which you had to wet to make it stick. Licking it was the usual approach for single use.

No, US postage stamps are self-adhesive. This is a very old joke recycled for the current administration.

But even then, people licked them. Never heard of anyone spitting on them.

I work at the post office. I'm no longer a window clerk, but I would always crack up when one of his sycophants would tell me they wished he was on a stamp. I'd then have to tell them that USPS only puts dead people on their stamps: https://about.usps.com/publications/pub226/pub226_tech_005.htm

Last time I had a customer talk about a Trump stamp, I told them he hasn't qualified yet. On another occasion, I just told them "I hope we get one soon".

That one earned me a look from the other window clerk. 😂

And when he qualifies, I hope it's mispelled as a "tramp stamp"

Rush had quite the following, too, and know you never hear about him. Trump has achieved nothing except for the right wing to have an outlet for their hatred of everyone, not like them.

Idk. Criteria 9 on the list: The stamp program commemorates positive contributions to American life, history, culture, and environment; therefore, negative occurrences and disasters will not be commemorated on U.S. postage stamps or stationery.

His death will be a positive contribution to history. Idk if it'd be *American* history, but it'll be history.

Definitely bate for the Boomer crowd. It's been a long while since Forever stamps were lickable. We moved on to self adhesive stickers in the 90s.

Yeah, I remember those. Here in Norway, we just buy the stamp through an app and then get a code to write on the envelope or package. I think you can still buy actual stamps too, but I don't know anyone who uses them. Not that people use snail mail much anymore anyway. They're down to delivering only every other day here now since the volume has gotten so small.

Trump takes his cabinet out for dinner. The waiter comes along and asks him what he will be eating tonight.

Trump replies, 'I'll have the cheeseburger.'

The waiter then asks, 'What about the vegetables?'

To which Trump says, 'They'll have the same as me.'

If *every* eligible Californian, New Yorker, Coloradoan, New Mexican, Oregan, Washingtonian, Illinoisan, etc had turned out to vote for Kamala, we still would be in the exact same position we are now. That's what the electoral college does. It's a dumbass system that should be abolished, but it means that not everyone who stayed home voted for Trump. They voted for whoever their state voted for. (And in fact, even red state Kamala voters voted for Trump because of the EC. It's asinine.)

3 weeks ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

I get the point that you're making, and think the presidency should be a matter of popular vote, we should have ranked voting, and no electoral college.

Regardless, telling people that they voted for Trump in spite of actually voting for Kamala, because their state's electoral votes went to Trump, is rude bordering worse. A person who turned out to vote, voted for who they personally voted for.

You can say the stayed-homes cast a vote for their state's choice. Not the active voters, though.

3 weeks ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It's demonstrably true, though, at least in gerrymandered cases. An elector's one job is to vote for who their elector district votes for. But most states (except Maine and Nebraska...?) have every elector vote for the same person regardless of district. Which means in 96% of states, even if your district votes one way, if your state, overall, votes the other, then you and your entire district's votes are cast for the other candidate - in *effect*, if not in name, you've voted for your opponent.

Although in most states the whole of their EC vote block goes to whoever "wins" the state, if an individual casts their own vote, they voted for who they voted for, at that time. The name they chose is who they voted for.

The fact the EC going the other way made their vote meaningless is a problem with the system, I agree with you in full.

I'm just making the point that it's *distasteful* to tell people they functionally, individually voted for Trump, when they did the opposite.

It's more accurate to say their vote was stolen from them, than to say that they "voted for the opponent (in effect)".
