  1. He went all Jared Weaver on him.... once guys are in between go nuts and pretend you want a piece.
  2. right. All he cared about was winning. If the political landscape were different he could just as easily have been a Bernie Bros. His endpoint is making money and gaining fame and growing his brand. He picked the best path to get there given that we had 8 years of a D running things, who was black, and garnered a lot of hate over that. Trump saw the opening with the help of Steve Bannon.
  3. yeah I think he wrote a book with that title 🙂 I think both sides are given to hyperbole but Trump took it all a step further. It's like busting balls vs actually wanting to fight and kill. Think of Billy Batts and and Tommy in Goodfellas.
  4. Throughout Trump's era Jonah has been one of the key conservative voices I've stilll read as I thought of him as always a reasonable guy.
  5. Until more people get vaccinated we will be in this perpetual ebb and flow. Restrictions made sense as we were waiting for people to get their chance as it had to be rolled out and prioritized. Last year cases began to go up around this time in Florida , Texas and Georgia. So far they haven’t. That’s a good sign. The NE has to go thru what the south did in the late summer I guess
  6. This is one steaming pile of horse shit.
  7. Youngkin is already in trouble with MAGA because he hired a guy who does the pronoun thing and had pictures posted wearing a dress. They didn’t like that
  8. One reason presidents lose house seats is their coattails. When that person doesn’t have the president at the top of the ticket they miss out Did Biden have coattails? There also redistricting to consider. And a different landscape. We are personality driven and with Trump in the picture Im not sure conventional wisdom applies.
  9. We are all one diagnosis away from bankruptcy.
  10. In my neighborhood there’s one street that dead ends into a pathway to a park but you can get to the other side where the street starts again via a little sidewalk It was built that way to discourage auto traffic on that road as the Ford product development center is there so during non covid times a lot of cars coming and going. Discourage auto traffic in our neighborhoods. Because of that its popular for runners and walkers. Especially since it was repaved for a sewer project. Last year someone put a sign up yelling at people for running on their street and to go run in their own neighborhood. How they knew where they lived… I don’t know. I can only imagine though. Dearborn still gonna Dearborn
  11. The family thinks they are just casting her away. Said it’s a real white trash situation. Another one in her mid 50s saying she’s going to kill her daughters boyfriend for “giving it to her”. Nobody vaccinated. Always someone else’s fault.
  12. My wife had a 34 year old unvaccinated pregnant lady about to be ventilated and they want to move her downtown for better neonatal treatment but her family is fighting it. That’s the kind of things they are still dealing with. Most in ICU are unvaccinated. Those that are have other issues at play.
  13. Not good for the Dems but I also remember when it looked like Clinton and Obama were dead a year into their term. We shall see.
  14. The GOP has so many "worst" people.
  15. They will get off to a slow start and he'll only come up with good ideas once the lawyers have figured it all out.
  16. The cops lied? I'm shocked.
  17. actually she's not to them and they pretend otherwise and it's why they hate her even more 🙂
  18. and that's why MTG hates her. Women are vicious with one another. MTG wants to be a hottie. Seriously, pay attention to how some women give others bad looks when they are prettier.
  19. Anyone mention yet that the judge referred to one of the jurors as "a black"?
  20. For about 10 seconds I thought Verlander signed with Detroit. I was in the middle of a workout class with some friends. My watch buzzed and without my glasses all I could make out on the screen was "Verlander/Tigers/Reunion". I went over t to my phone (we were doing burpees so I didn't need an excuse to stop) and on the home screen the update was there but again, without my glasses, all I could decipher was the same so I yelled out "Tigers signed Verlander". People got excited. I opened the story and was able to see it fully. Damn. There's an analogy there somewhere to relate to it.
  21. He was after the dude who was speaker elect or some shit that had to resign over a sex scandal. That dude was after your dude who also resigned over a sex scandal.
  22. Remember that Republican who was speaker of the house that went to jail after we found out he molested boys?
  23. I have some moon boot type in my garage. Got them for my son when he was like 14 but by then his feet were bigger than mine. I use them for snow. They work fine. Stay dry.
