  1. His attorney General, his Secretary of Defense, his Secretary of State, his Vice President,... the list is extensive and easily verified by a simple Google search. Your statement is pathetic.
  2. The person just elected to President is verifiably: a convicted felon, convicted of sexual assault, a serial liar, a crook who stole from his own foundation, quite possibly a traitor to this country, identified as unfit for office by his entire administration and countless others, potentially a pedophile, a bully, a hate monger, appeals to racists, may also be racist, and is a terrible human being. So that means people either don't believe all of this, or they don't care. Either way, they deserve every bit of shame they receive for being either so dumb or such a terrible human being. Eff em.
  3. Forget all of the complaints about Trump except for one. Can you truthfully answer one thing about Trump for me so that I can at least understand the mindset of the people that put him back in office? Here is my question: He was caught with thousands of top secret documents and actively did everything possible to hide them and keep them from the government. There is no other reasonable conclusion than he planned to, or was already, selling national secrets for political and or monetary gains. His crime was extremely different than Biden, who had a small number of older documents that were found among a bunch of files, and who willingly immediately returned the documents, and was open to searches of his home and office. It is clear Biden's crime was sloppy document management. Trump's crime is far more sinister. In addition, Trump has shown multiple times he worships Putin, does business for hotels, etc with Putin, received extensive money from Russian oligarchs for his New York properties above market rates, had multiple members of his 2016/2020 campaign team convicted of crimes related to coordinating with the Russians, is ready to given Putin Ukraine, etc. Given all of this, how can you dismiss those massive massive red flags that he's likely a compromised individual and quite likely a traitor to this country? How do you just dismiss it? Everythinig I just typed are verifiable, true facts except for the ultimate conculsion he's definitiely compromised. But given all those facts, it seems totally obvious. I really don't get it. I would never, under any circumstances, put a traitor into the White House.
  4. This is exactly what is at play. Example 1 of a thousand, is that people believe Biden was fully responsible for the inflation problem when the Trump trillions of debt spending was the match that ignited it. And his policies are more inflationary than Harris. People are stupid.
  5. Those who are saying this election is not that big of a deal are missing the big picture. Last night we learned two deeply concerning lessons. The first is that the American public is way more susceptible to disinformation than anyone realized. They elected a traitor (stolen docs), grifter, felon, sexual assaulter, pedophile, serial liar, crook, and moron. The gullibility of the American public is unbelievable. The stupidity of the American public is epic. And that is frightening for the future. Second, the message of hate resonated with way more people than folks would ever have guessed. Americans hold way more hatred, racism, sexism and misogyny than anyone realized. This will have implications for decades. This election wasn’t about four years. It was a realization that the American experiment is truly at risk because of the flaws of its own citizens. With disinformation being unstoppable, there is now a path to a dystopian future filled with suffering, control, grift, corruption, and out of control wealth inequality. The fundamental tenant of a fair opportunity for Americans could be an ideal of the past until or if Americans figure out a way to deal with disinformation and recognize within themselves their own personal failings.
  6. To be clear Trump back in office will have no threat of wwiii with Russia at all. He will give them Ukraine, Moldova, and a few other former Soviet occupations. Trump is a crooked pussy.
  7. IMO there is nothing the Dems can do to their policies or platform or candidates other than a few minor tweaks. They are victims of massive disinformation campaigns that having been going on since Fox News gained prominence. The only option is to wait for enough old stupid fucks to die, and enough young stupid fucks to grow up and start caring about this country.
  8. She ain’t winning Zona. is now a good time to point out that we could be staring at a Republican presidency, senate and house?
  9. For me, it’s the realization that with all of the disinformation dotard has thrown out there, dotard is winning his states as well or better than four years ago. It’s incredibly disappointing. People are so stupid.
  10. Wait really? I just put a down payment on a house in Madrid and the movers are coming at 9 am. Should I put that on hold?
  11. These cnn exit poll questions are stupid and worthless. No conclusions can be drawn from these questions.
  12. Yup, and every county comparison cnn did to 2020 in several states showed better Trump performance. I’m very very concerned.
  13. I’ve spent a lifetime hating the city of Philadelphia ever since they cheered Michael Irvin’s injury. If they carry Pennsylvania, then between that and Jerry Jones being a shit stain, I’m going to give Philly a pass this year to abuse the Cowboy’s rotting carcass.
  14. I'm on a group text thread of those of us from the "whole group" who are sensible, intelligent people. A few weeks ago, we did an experiment. We asked each person how many out of 10 Republican friends they thought would flip from 2020 and vote Harris over Trump. Our group includes independents, Republicans, and Democrats. We concluded as a group that we all knew approximately 10% of our Republican friends that are "definitely" flipping. Now, that could end up being 8% or 5% or 12%, but if it's anything over 5%, I also can't see Trump winning. That, plus JS, has kept me off the ledge for the last few weeks.
  15. I think what is so disappointing about last night, is that except for Johnson, the team looks just like the team last year. All of the same things wrong from last year show this year too. It's coaching if all the players change and the results looks similar.
  16. After having evaluated cord cutting for years, finally ready to pull the trigger, I think. We are huge sports content fans, and the environment now favors cutting. Would be interested to hear from anyone about whether I have the facts right on sports programming for the Austin Texas area: 1. San Antonio Spurs - I get some games on U-Verse, but not always. I think we can subscribe to FanDuel Sports Network (ex-Ballys) if we want to watch the Spurs? There appear to be no other options? 2. Dallas Mavericks - I don't get hardly any games on U-Verse. This was one of the reasons we are thinking of dropping. I believe we can buy the NBA package for them? I don't think we get access to the Mavericks on Fan Duel Sports Network, only Spurs??? 3. Dallas Stars - Victory+ works great, except channel flipping is not possible. That's okay. This was a major reason for considering cutting. We are huge Stars fans. 4. Astros - I used to get all games on U-Verse. This was probably the top reason we had kept U-Verse. I'm not clear if we can see them next year without U-Verse. Anyone know what is planned next year? 5. Rangers - I used to get some games on U-Verse. I'm not clear how I will be able to watch them next year. Anyone know? Bottom line is that I can cut and still have access to Spurs, maybe Mavs, Stars, with open questions for Astros and Rangers. That's good enough.
  17. Just remember who assembled this team, with a lot of NIL available. Compare player movement on the floor with teams like Kansas and Gonzaga. It’s just completely different. We don’t have the coach, and we need to just let this season and next happen because it’s going to be a rough two years. The elite 8 run was a leftover of Beard coaching early in the year and previously, combined with a very good team with great chemistry and hustle.
  18. I got tired of the unattractive play mid way thru the second half and went to bed. Johnson was a huge bright spot, and you can see some talent on the floor, but it just seems like these Terry teams miss some fundamentals. He just lets them play, which I think bodes well for late in games, but without the fundamentals to go with it they just don’t execute very well on offense or defense. You could always see the fundamentals on the floor with Beard teams.
  19. Time travel inconsistencies used to drive me insane. I was able to reconcile it all by saying there are parallel universes that intersect. I can now sleep at night.
  20. Johnson appears to be the real deal.
  21. Just same ol’ same ol’. They look just like last year’s team. Same iffy defense, poor defense of the 3, no flow in offense, bad 3 pt shooting, weak switching on D, failure to cut off the lane, etc.
  22. Ive become convinced that several hundred attendees to his events, particularly those behind him, are paid to be there. I just can’t figure out how they’ve done it without it getting out that so many are paid.
