  1. Cooper might be the underrated pick here. Trump only one NC 49.93/48.59. Cooper might help push them over and don't discount Harris getting a bump in NC as well. It also helps that the Republican candidate for governor is fucking insane.
  2. The Tucker Carlson/Candace Owens wing of the Republican Party would be literally frothing at mouth about a Harris/Shapiro ticket and we all know why.
  3. What's funny/sad is that it's obvious why Biden wasn't doing many appearances the last year. Then, when he fucked up the debate, he knew or was told he had to get out there and he's out there more than he's ever been and it keeps getting worse.
  4. In the 70's we went from Nixon to Ford to Carter but Ford wasn't elected so there's that. I'd have to say somewhere in the first half of the 20th century or in the 1800's or some such.
  5. How tall are these people? (We all know Trump is 6'3" and 215.)
  6. I'm legit surprised on how half of America thinks the assassination attempt was staged and the other half thinks it was an inside job.
  7. Unfortunately, you are correct. If Whitmer were a man, she'd be the 100% obvious choice. 30% (or more) of people's heads would explode if there were two women. Shaprio is Jewish which won't matter to a wide number of people but the "GEORGE SOROS!!!!" crowd will be off the charts. Kelly from Arizona is an excellent choice, IMO.
  8. Her husband is Jewish. Shapiro is Jewish. Right wing MAGA Twitter would be off the charts.
  9. I liked how this board is mostly Gen Xers and can see our old, deranged parents in both of these candidates.
  10. End no fault divorce and I would never ever consider getting married for any reason at all.
  11. Everybody polling better against Trump than either Biden or Harris: https://www.politico.com/newsletters/playbook/2024/07/17/new-polling-bolsters-dump-biden-push-00168943
  12. Yet there is still time to do something about it but let's not hurt the feelings of the Biden family.
  13. If Biden still beats Trump in the end (and he may), the meltdown will be epic and glorious.
  14. Why is that on South Scottsdale? I'm talking about the areas around Fashion Square and maybe a little north and south of that. (Maybe I'm wrong on the terminology.) I do not mean Old Town, which seems kitchy like Branson in the Desert or something. I'd prefer Paradise Valley but that's a price tier about what we're talking about here. By "cactus corridor," I assume you mean North Scottsdale with all of the golf clubs? We really like that area but parts of it look like a moonscape and the average age seems to be 137 years old. Good communities and golf, though.
  15. Wasn't Kobe the helicopter dad? Sorry, I'm a bad person.
  16. It might be a hot take but I kind of agree with you on the Nashville angle. When I started this, I thought Nashville would rank higher but it didn't and we've been there quite a bit. We don't know it like a local but we know it fairly well. Sure, it's a good place to go party or to some bro country show but to live? What am I doing on a Wednesday? (I'm not going to shows every day.) Weather is meh. Hot/humid in the summer. Cold/dry in the winter. Good food city but not a lot of outdoor options. Sure, they're outside of town but I'm talking about the city. Got some good. Got some bad. Overrated? Maybe.
  17. Good find on the video. I have thought for some time that we could see reverse climate retiree migrations. Instead of working in the Northeast and the Midwest only to retire to the SE or the SW, we might see the opposite. NYT had a story about people who moved to Houston finally having enough. (No shit.) Even where I'm at now, there are 4-5 months I can't really go outside. (January and February and then maybe June through August.) My thinking with Scottsdale is that it's 3-4 months but all at once. (I know it sounds back asswards.) Yes, the long term risk is that the average temps go up even more and then it stops raining/snowing again in the West. Makes me reconsider Denver, who I don't believe has any water problems....? Might pay more attention to Ann Arbor over the next few years....
  18. Could that happen in central Phoenix/Scottsdale? I could see it happening if thing got really bad. The desert isn't designed for have 10M people there. I know San Antonio had serious water problems when we lived there.
  19. Yeah, but what does that mean to me if I'm living in South Scottsdale? Is my water bill high even though I'm not using that much?
  20. Yes, something needs to happen. I'd be OK with Harris with Cooper or Brashears at this point. Would rather have Whitmer but it is what it is. If Trump wins, Vance is basically the incumbent in 2028.
