"We can do it the nice way, or the hard way! Yikes. Donald sounding like Fleece Johnson, Booty Warrior.

I think it's just that stupid people bet on results that they're hoping for. There were quite a few that bet on Conor McGregor to beat Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match. Since Mayweather had always been a convincing favorite throughout his career -- -200 against Pacquiao, -300 versus Canelo Alvarez, -400 against Shane Mosely -- professional bettors couldn't believe they could get a similar price on Mayweather versus McGregor. Mayweather's odds dipped under -400 in the days leading up the fight, and the big, smart money began appearing.

I agree. 2 years from now, I want to be thinking about JD Vance about as much as I think about Tim Kaine.

So many reasons I want Kamala, Walz to win this. A couple of them that I don't think about much: 1. I don't want this pseudo intellectual, eye liner wearing creep with his weirdo beard to be a big part of American politics for 4 or 8 or however many years. I don't want to think about this guy again until he's up for re-election in 2028. 2. If Dotard becomes President again with immunity and no guard rails, his corrupt ass will enrich himself to the point of being one of the wealthiest people that ever lived.

Watching from home in NE Austin. We're 1-7 when I attend. Only win was '92 when Peter Gardere was qb. Doing my part by not attending.

That reminds me. I need to get this t shirt in time for the Georgia game.

https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/campaign-92-the-race-to-avoid-being-the-guy-who-loses-to-bush/2859836 As evidence, this Saturday Night Live skit. "The fact is I couldn't beat David Duke in Harlem."

He's a know it all contrarian dumbass who got addicted to the adulation of right wing rubes after he started attacking the libruls.

That song really helps set the tone for this scene. I've always interpreted it as Rust's selection on the jukebox.

Yes. I'm sure. I said a shred of intellect or artistry. I don't know about the intellect but I'll stand by my statement since he did at one time display some artistry and write some damn fine songs.

The group was probably chosen for him anyway. I doubt if Donald is usually aware of many of those people. I'd bet he can't name 3 Hank Jr songs or even tell you who that giant Jethro is on the left side of the booth.

Hank Jr, the only person in that booth that ever exhibited a shred of intellect or artistry. His weird upbringing, pills, and 90 proof really did a number on him.

That's nice to know but why did they make the monument look like a klansman?

I graduated in '97 as an English major. Anyone have Ayers for Shakespeare? I dropped it after 2 weeks. I read and wrote more in those 2 weeks than I did in the entire semester of the other Shakespeare class I took later. I had Hilfer for American Lit 316K. I had Milton with that old bastard, Val Leclerq. I took Early British Romantics and Later British Romantics. Later was with Heinzelman. The Romantics were fun. They were like rappers, always having beef with each other. Postmodernism was one of the best. Can't remember the professor's name. Modern Short Story was excellent. Professor Bremen was one of my favorites. Had some kind of later American Literature course with him.

Don't know if already posted or if there's a more appropriate thread but I'm dying laughing at this. Not at all safe for work. This guy was still at 35% in the last poll I saw for NC governor. You hear about the black nazi stuff and praising Hitler but I haven't heard much of this, even on Surly. Worse than I thought. Still polling at 35%! NSFW, like at all!

Did you live there in 2020? If so, how's that ratio compare?

I love how these Republican dopes lose so many winnable elections by nominating awful candidates. Dr Oz, Herschel, Kari Lake, Couchfucker Vance, but Robinson has got to be their worst.

About time. These were Utah's vote totals in 2016. A great many of those McMullin votes were Mormons who weren't inclined to vote for Trump over his lack of morality. Republican Donald Trump Mike Pence 515,231 Democratic Hillary Clinton Tim Kaine 310,676 Independent Evan McMullin Nathan Johnson 243,690 Libertarian Gary Johnson Bill Weld 39,608

It's more like 12 - 7:30. @PRONG HORN, seriously, where do you live? What's the story with your odd posting hours?

Laugh reaction over bringing a piece to wadefish in Matagorda Bay. Not for the abusive drunk part.

Weigman on the bench because he sucks or some other reason?

Including the part about her eating the dog food. I'd sweeten the endorsement to $200 if she ate on air and said this line. "This is the anti-woke, human grade dog food. yum yum" And does Ol' Roy make a canned food?

If 6 weeks ago, you had predicted that Loomer specifically would've been joining the inner circle of Trump's campaign, helping prepare for the debate, and joining him at events like 9 11 memorials, you'd have been dismissed as a @Helobious sock.

For such a long time, I've felt so jaded and like nothing these people do could possibly surprise me. Whether he's hitting that or not, inviting Laura Loomer into the inner circle to the point of her being a surrogate, flying to events with him, and god damn helping with debate prep. I really thought I was past disappointment in Dotard on a personal level but here we are. I remember the sweet summer days of thinking that someone as nuts as MTG could never get access and would continue to be shunned by the party. Not that long ago she was removed from all committee assignments, largely by vote of her own party. Now she's nowhere near the craziest that they're openly associating with. There's video of Laura Loomer throwing herself at actual self described fucking Nazis, bragging about her big titties, and the Nazi scum is having none of it. Now, a former president of the United States and a candidate in a tight race for the same less than 2 months away is saying "I'll hit that" or at least he's completely unconcerned with that perception. Meanwhile, his wife, the former first lady, is never seen in his company as he campaigns. Things are so fucked, that you won't hear a bleep about it anywhere but Surly and lefty YouTube or whatever. Also, I'm shocked at the number of these people that start as know it all contrarian both sidesers and end up getting addicted to the right wing adulation that they get from criticizing democrats and the left. RFK Jr, Jill Stein (don't ever have dinner with Vlad Putin, you fucking idiot!), Russell Brand, Tulsi Gabbard, Lara Logan, Leon Musk, Marianne Williamson, and the list is almost endless. Of that list, just how many are literally insane and how many gain a greater platform despite or because of that insanity. And the state of media today. Legacy media being so absent, fucking lazy, and unwilling to do anything but both sides horse race coverage. The extent to which so many people are sheltered from ever seeing any of this crazy shit or just how sane washed the lunacy is. JFC, Laura Loomer flying to debates with someone that might very well still be President. Even the most committed ledge dwellers never saw that coming. Anyone that had predicted that 2 months ago would have been dismissed as out of their mind.

I looked at it a little bit last night just after the debate. It was a graveyard. A little bit of bitching about the moderators and that was it. 77-0 kind of atmosphere.
