I really think people have moved on from that. Edit: They don't have the mouthpiece of the Presidency. They can whine all they want on Newsmax and OAN and AmericanFreedomBeacondotcom and whatever is left of Twitter these days and even Tucker but that's it. They can file stupid lawsuits but good luck getting good attorneys. These will go nowhere. When it's an incumbent doing the challenging it's different from a challenger.

I went to Petosky for the first time in 2021 for a wedding. What a lovely place. Very nice downtown area that looked very progressive. If not for the winters I would like to live there.

He will sabatoge them. He will never endorse someone else for the GOP nomination. All he needs is to take his 3-5% of hardcare voters with them and it's over for the GOP. IT's never been about policy for him. He'd endorse the democrat before he'd endorse the GOP nominee.

Anyone who's had kids and participated in their school functions like joining the PTA, volunteering, etc. knows precisely who she and MTG are. Every school has moms like them. Always in everyone's business. Trying to get in good with the principal and teachers. Pulls strings so their kids get "the good 4th grade teacher". Sneaks into the sales ahead of time to get the good stuff before the general public does. It's all about them. Not the kids.

Nobody is listening to them anymore.

My internet usage has been about 65% of our allotment all year. I’m working from home. We have 4 people. Never really gave it much thought. Last month we got up to 85% and this month on pace for the same. I smell a rat as xfinity probably wants me to upgrade to unlimited. I’ve tried to see if I can track by device but cannot find anything.

Verlander is going to go where they pay him the most money and the team is contending. The Dodgers always get mentioned. I'd say it's 75% he goes back to Houston. They were willing to risk the cost of him potentially not recovering from TJ. He did, spectacularly. So he's worth far more than the $25M he was due. He's not coming back to Detroit in the forseeable future.

LOL

Liz Cheney for speaker. Then she can form a new Jan 6 committee.

I look at it that congress has a low approval rating no matter who is in charge. We are approaching a potus election that starts now. Let the oppo take the heat. Like Tony letting Uncle Junior be the boss in season 2. A lightning Rod. Things suck and don’t get done? Blame congress. Starts in the house and they are busy with Hunter Biden and Fauci fighting battles from 3-4 years ago.

Stay tuned. Eddie has done some work on this and has some good info.

Without thinking about it too much… does a razor thin majority help or hurt the party in power? I’m not so sure a 220 GOP house is a bad thing for the Dems. If you had to pick a chamber you go with the senate for the judges.

I think Trump brought people into the GOO fold that were not there but also pushed people away. Those he brought in will not support anyone else unless he gives them permission. They are traditionally non voters. I don’t know if I changed before Trump. When the old site was up I tried to look at my old posts to see if I could find a moment but did not. I was never in on Trump. I assumed he would lose the primary. I am pretty sure I would have supported someone like Rubio or Kasich in 2016. Not Cruz.

I would say no since this is a runoff based on existing candidates.

I’m sure that will fix it

I thought putting patches on the umpires would help.

I miss physical tickets. I love the convenience of only needing my phone but if you fork down the money upfront for a package you should get physical reminders too. I heard of some NFL teams going back to giving tickets.

For sure. Andy Serkis too. And Selvig. Those 3 are brilliant.

He's opting out because he sees it as his duty to maximize his value for everyone else. He comes from a union family. that's important to him. I expect him to stay in Houston or sign with LA.
