    Dems lost 2016 because Hillary refused to visit the midwest. You know, the midwest swing states who want moderate policy. Hillary had like a 97% approval rating among the hardcore democratic base. The base showed up and Hillary lost. Biden won 2020 because he pitched himself as a moderate unity ticket and he won back the midwest. Biden appealed to Trump voters who didn't like Trump. Do you not understand what the term swing voter means?

    Allowing child labor is actually on of the few republican policy points that doesn't involve controlling women, being racist, or giving more money to big business + rich people, so it is pretty near and dear to their hearts.

    Your other dumb childish takes on this board make a lot more sense now.

    Oh yeah im not arguing about the felony charge. I just hate the propaganda line that is being circulated in Trumpworld of 'NDAs are totally legal! His actions were fine and done all the time and this is a witch hunt!' as a way of dismissing the entire care -- the underlying behavior is definitely not legal in NY. It is a misdemeanor.

    Fair enough and likely true. I am just stating my general assumption that a spouse usually has less access to business records than personal records.

    Let's say the motive is to save his marriage. Is it easier to hide an affair using your business as a slush fund, or your personal account that your wife probably has access to? Even if there was no tax motive or election motive, it is still plausible a businessman would use his business to conceal a personal hush money payment. But, to use the business + lawyer method that was used here, you have to account the payment as a legal expense, even though there is no business purpose. This is a misdemeanor in NY.

    This is slightly off-point. There is an intermediate step between 'legal' and 'felony' that can make this a misdemeanor. If the same exact conduct had been proved (ie., Cohen paid Stormy, then Trump reimburses Cohen but accounts the payments as a business expense and not a personal expense), but the jury decided that Trump did so to save his marriage, that is a misdemeanor. You are correct that the intent to further another crime (eg., influence the election or to commit tax fraud) makes this a felony, but what Trump world is getting wrong is that there is almost no world where Trump gets off without a misdemeanor charge. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/how-could-trumps-new-york-hush-money-trial-end

    Off topic, but this is an example of why Elon Musk is an idiot.

    It's a little embarrassing i even sleuthed this, but "I am checking on the now part" is actually just the dude asking Nahlin.

    In sum: 1. A&M is underrated, 2. but also A&M is overrated, 3. but certainly A&M's talent is in the top half of the SEC, 4. and certainly a lot higher than the top half. 5. but not #1. 6. But probably in the top half. 7. and certainly in the top five.

    The next 8 months is the time when guys like Sydir start to really reshape their body. Hoping he would be at that point 2 months after his freshman season is not the correct approach. Lets see how he looks in August, and then start to panic.

    No I get the whole 'Nahlin is an asshole' answer. But there is still an unanswered question of 'why does Bobby keep putting out daily rambling videos when he doesnt have much to talk about?'. Which I would like to speculate upon instead of doing my real job.
  16. Askew
    This is me speculating on the business model, but I imagine the schism occurred because IT discovered how much $$ was coming in from superchats and wanted a larger cut. Bobby said fuck off I love my superchats, bro. So I agree with your point, but it runs contrary to the fundamental reason Bobby is leaving: Youtube revenue. He wants to ramble for 90 minutes at a time and collect superchats throughout. Cut down on time and you cut down on superchat $$. He isnt doing this to put out high quality content as part of the IT ecosystem. Which is a shame because they were kind of achieving that concept as well as you can in this business. Any arms-length consultant would tell Bobby what you are saying (not enough content for the time block). But I imagine he wants to find out for himself what a youtube death spiral feels like.
  17. Askew
    This is absolutely true. I should have been more precise: because of his connections, Bobby is able to pull some really good one-off content; but when Bobby is doing daily long-form podcasts without Gerry and/or IT he is mostly rambling or giving his opinion on other paysite reports. Bobby has already done this in his latest few videos, but has just stopped using the words "Inside Texas is reporting that ____", now he just says "reports are that ____".
  18. Askew
    I think OTF will also suffer, until Bobby can find a recruiting guy equivalent to Gerry and a Texas beat writer equivalent to Wells + Cook. + Nahlin. OTF + IT was very much a symbiotic relationship, with OTF getting credibility from bringing on journalists with first-hand info. At this point Bobby comes across as just another Youtuber giving his opinion on stories he read on paysites that morning.

    This is a sign...Quinn is not starting. The gods have spoken. Pray the omens are incorrect.

    You'll be happy when he gets poached by USC then

    "Steve Sarklostagain" is a powerful predictive force. He hasnt done so he wont do it. This is science. The media and experts have taken notice.
