  1. And the media will normalize it by equating the death squads to Obama’s community organizing. Our only hope, small though it may be, is that he dies before they can cancel the election, and his supporters don’t immediately become cultists for the next guy.
  2. You ever wonder why you get so many phishing/scam emails, texts, and phone calls? It's because they work.
  3. If it was written this year we’d get a hereditary monarchy with absolute power and codify the divine right of rule by the Trump family. There would be protections only for straight, white, Christian men. Ratification would be by plebiscite and would pass with 101% of the vote.
  4. It doesn't take a lawyer to understand that the constitution is like the strike zone, except it's 5 people's opinions that matter, not 1. The only real wildcard is whether a couple justices would've held out for a better vacation package.
  5. As someone with lots of working class clients, that is truly what many still think. I learned how to gracefully disengage when they try to suck me into a discussion on the virtues of Dotard, but the garbage that comes out before I can change the subject (usually back to the terrible situation they've made for themselves) has really soured me on humanity. The oligarchy barely has to try to get these folks. We're fucked for a long while.
  6. Y’all are complaining about slang that’s already old. This entire site now:
  7. Open one adjoining Mar-a-Lago and name it for Julius and Ethel Rosenberg.
  8. It'll be the fault of Soros, libs in general, Greenlander sepratists, whomever. His sheeple will nevet tie any negative outcome to their god/hero.
  9. I like the “follows Christ” plea in the context of not being considered a foreigner. Gives away the game that fundagelical Christianity has wholly separated from its roots.
  10. Nothing anyone in Trump's White House will do will be prosecuted by anyone unless it is with Dotard's permission.
  11. I get the sense that the last 8 years have weeded out those types already. Her background tells me she's ready for and has already bought into what's coming. I do believe that she might leave early, but only because at some point she can cash in. Something like a book, as you say.
  12. Counterpoint: I can think of no better time for the world to end than with Texas having just won a natty and having eternal scoreboard on, among others, OU, aggy, arky, Michigan, Clemson, tOSU, and probably Notre Dame.
  13. Probably the Germans and the Japanese. I'm not worried about WW3, though. The last WW was preceded by aggy's only MNC. An Aggy playoff run, let alone a title, seems quite unlikely in the near future. But when Elko is inevitably mucked, if they hire a real winner, look out.
  14. This being the fuckiest timeline, don't count out John Sharp.
  15. That, and politics is just another arena for grifting. Let’s not pretend elected and establishment Dems aren’t simply protecting their incomes when they do what they do. More and more I’m convinced we’re headed for either an Elysium-style dystopia, or, less likely, a bloody reckoning. Dems are financially incentivized to drift further right, and codified oligarchy isn’t so far away on that path. Or maybe the “2nd Amendment types” get the proper focus. I’m not betting on the latter.
  16. 0 notable wins non-conference with 12 of the 17 remaining games against ranked opponents. You’re right, we’re not gonna make an ncaa tournament run, because we’re not gonna make the tournament. 17-18 wins seems like the ceiling. We all knew this was coming. Terry had to be retained after that run taking over for Beard, but his failure was inevitable.
  17. He’s not wrong in the sense that most MAGA aren’t even aware of this fight. The very online folks know, but that group is only a small part of the “informed voter” part of the electorate.
  18. He’s a pretty awkward public speaker, but he’d still be better at color commentary than Tom Brady.
  19. American cultural theft once again proves itself to be vapid and idiotic. The worthless Blue Wall is the perfect American distillation of the Maginot Line.
  20. Elected Dems have interest in anything but advancing their individual careers. If somehow that means moving out of this nightmare rather than, as usual, dithering about and grifting slightly less obviously than Pubs, maybe we’ll move forward. In other words, if things get better, it’ll be an accident.
  21. Sounds like a good client, until last week.
  22. Will Rotary Club members be rounded up after the browns?
  23. The ones who don't take themselves way too seriously.
  24. Correct. The oligarchy is well-positioned to tell the people who really set the leopards loose on them. It will not be Trump's fault. His position will only be strengthened by calamity.
  25. So . . . Democrats. They also don't have the stomach for it.
