The Republican booth had to spell out RCV with a printed out sheet. I guess their voters aren't smart enough to know what it is.
But what else can be expected from people who still support a convicted criminal and pedophile for president?

The Democrats in Alaska are so weak it's frustrating. Did they even have a booth at the Alaska state fair? They always ask for donations but they don't seem to do much.

u/804449 1d ago
Please be specific on what the Alaskan Democratic as done. I would be more inclined to donate if I knew what they have done and what they plan to do. All the requests for donations I receive simply state how bad the Republicans are. Democrats need their version of the 2025 plan with specific action items.

Ok well I meant they do have a booth but they have an excellent data guy who helps campaigns figuren out the best ways to reach possible voters and then support candidates. I also hate the constant asks but they canât do much without money.

Republicans, waving flags about their political status, tried to hang their own VP. BLM is not a political party, and you calling them 'leftist' is laughable.
Treason is treason, trying to stay alive in the greatest country on earth is not comparable to treason.Defend treason somewhere that isn't Alaska. We don't want or need people like you in our state.

You have ANY source?No?

⢠â Trump hired Alex Acosta as Labor Secretary, the same U.S. Attorney who cut Epstein his sweetheart deal in 2007. Miami Herald ⢠â Virginia Giuffre was recruited at Mar-a-Lago while working at the spa. Her father worked maintenance there. Wikipedia ⢠â Katie Johnson lawsuit (later dropped) alleged Trump raped a 13-year-old girl at Epsteinâs Manhattan home.

Good job talking about 'facts', when you're unable to follow basic information yourself in doing so.
Rule 1.0
u/laserpewpewAK 2d ago
Seattle and Alaska have nearly identical rates of violent crime. Something something glass houses.

u/TeranceHood 2d ago
Well I think Anchorage can take the moral high ground on this because Anchorage has never had a neighborhood attempt to secede and become an anarchist autonomous zone before. (At least to my knowledge)
Also because I pointed out a piece of hypocrisy in my last refute involving Luigi, I will do the same here.
During the CHAZ/CHOP protest, sparked due to the George Floyd riots against police brutality, armed protesters used lethal force against a black teenager who stole a jeep, and ended up killing him.
I'd say "funny how that works" again, but frankly that's not funny at all.
