I wonder if this will actually stick, no matter how long we go on. Or will people just move on from it like they’ve moved on from every other one of his heinous acts.

It won't stick. The reason MAGATs haven't moved on is they haven't been forced to actually reckon with the idea that Trump is promintenly featured in the list. They still think it's going to confirm their warped view of the world that Dems and Dem-aligned folks are running a secret underground child smuggling operation. If/when they're left with nothing but vegetables on their plate, they'll throw a tantrum and get Fox to play the whiny titty baby hits. I'm a little curious as to the dog whistle they settle on. DEI and woke are about played out. I suppose they could try to refresh CRT, but I suspect their dialed-in marketing folks will have something shiny and built for distraction ready to go. I wonder if they're ready to abandon the facade and come right out with the 14 words as the mainstream rallying cry.

From a pure politics standpoint it’s even a stupid stance. There are Dems in red states. They’re likely to get primaried if they fuck over their own, and they’re open to general losses if the national party no longer fights for the folks in red states, too.

As a sometime subscriber to The Economist, I hear ya . . . a bit. It just seems like people that think like you were always a one in a tiny minority watching as the platform and rhetoric always seemed to barely account for your views. Would you say you were slow to see that the party was well on its way to completely abandoning your views beginning with with the Tea Party revolts in 2009?

How the fuck were y'all Republicans in the before times? The easy way I reconcile it is you were seduced by the small government rhetoric we now know (but many of us suspected) was complete bullshit, but now I have to ask. On this page y'all are engaging in a back and forth that would've had you RINO'd out the door of your local GOP club, even if you brought the doughnuts. How were you sucked in by the party whose raison d'être is to protect and expand the wealth of the filthy and obscenely rich?

We are going to win 7 games.
Quit being a bitch.
Moronic take. I’m not whining about shit. Sark doesn’t need to be fired, Arch is doing fine, IMO, given the putrid OL play.
We don’t play in the big 12 anymore. Teams that go 6-6 in this league have athletes like Florida. If the defense looks like it has since week 1, there are no layups left, and 7+ will require some improvement from the offense and more than little good luck.

With Muhammad playing its elite dumbass.
So the secret to our supposedly elite stockpile of EDGEs getting any pressure on the QB is getting a CB back? Is MM our DTs spirit animal, calming their nerves so they get in the way of a ball carrier every once in a while?

I still think we have a good, not great defense.
Florida is now 92nd in total yards at 354 per. The put up 457 on us. We recorded 0 sacks and maybe a pressure or 2.
I think we're anywhere from average to bottom 1/3rd of P4.
While so many were fixated on Arch's struggles, the defense shitting the bed hit me hardest. 7 wins is no guarantee unless Saturday's defensive effort turns out to be some kind of motivational fluke.

I cant wait for OU to put Mateer out there and get absolutely shitslammed by our defense. Hopefully our offense can score 20.
People still think we have a good defense?

Yeah, doing something in this context would mean either preparing for an armed resistance or getting the donors in line to threaten pulling NIL money if Sark doesn't hit the portal hard for OL next cycle. I'm neither obscenely rich, nor do I have a military background. I can run a so-so 5k, so I might could be a bit useful to John Connor, but the man I am not.
I hate to say it, but softlynow only pawn in game of life.

It doesn't matter that ICE in the cities is failing or the military mobilization is failing. That's not the point. They are normalizing troops on the ground in American cities for when it will matter...election day. They'll be there to "protect" the peace and integrity of the election.
This is correct. An incongruence with the Nazi timeline is that the Nazis had 400,000 stormtroopers doing it's work in 1930-31. Trump cannot command that kind of force to do his plenary bidding just yet. But they're working on it.

yes.
Thom Tillis is retiring. Murkowski and Collins are concerned, I'm sure, but not that much considering the hedging and non-confrontational language they used.
Who else? Who is drawing Trumpian fire for defying the Orange God?

they aren't normalizing shit is what I'm saying - they are attempting it and it's going like a fucking lead balloon. No one is like oh okay this is normal/okay.
Maybe I've been too busy to notice. Have a bunch of Republicans been pushing back on these tactics? Are they doing so loudly and unequivocally? If so, that's great!

I don't want to undersell the OL problems, but the DL hasn't been very good, either. Florida almost ran at will until late in the game. I know we recorded 0 sacks, but I think the number of pressures was <5. I can only recall our guys even touching Lagway 1 time.
For a group that was touted as potentially one of the best in the country, their production (11 sacks, good for t-52nd) is really bad.
I think folks are grasping at odd arguments as to the overall. I just think this is a failure of the '22-'23 recruiting classes to produce enough quality linemen.
2022 (OL, DT and EDGE)
misses - Justice Finkley, J'Mond Tapp, Kristopher Ross, Jaray Bledsoe, Malik Agbo, Aaron Bryant, Zac Swanson, Derrick Brown
remaining on the team - DJ Campbell (s), Neto Umeozulu, Cole Hutson (s), Ethan Burke (s), Connor Robertson,
2023 (OL, DT and EDGE)
misses - Payton Kirkland, Sydir Mitchell, Billy Walton III
remaining on the team - Colton Vasek, Jaydon Chatman, Trevor Goosby (s), Connor Stroh, and Andre Cojoe
The '22 class is glaring in the amount of guys that never contributed. Also, despite how pathetic the OL has performed, the guys not playing are trending "miss" (Umeozulu, Robertson). 3 starters across 9 positions for the '25 season for your Seniors/RS-Juniors is not great.
The '23 class is just way to small considering the problems that were developing. On OL it seems very likely we can move one more to the miss column (Stroh), and, again, if the other 2 are already getting passed by '24 and '25 guys, we will probably see them as bad takes as well. Goosby and Vasek as the only contributors from your Junior/RS-Soph group is downright pathetic.
Those classes are pretty terrible, and not filling in with transfers on the OL seems mind-numblingly stupid at this point. Clearly the DT transfers this year aren't going to work out like they did last year.
We have to hope that the '24-'25 classes have a better hit rate.
If I missed a body from our recruiting classes or roster (other than walk ons), let me know and I'll take the "L." I did this pretty quickly.

Ok wrong word then, but the data processing, which extended into April 2021. Although, again not clear who decided to do it or when.
Apparently, as you drill down into the data for smaller and smaller units, ie congressional districts, the risk increases of revealing personal information. At some point someone decided that was bad and we should do this differential privacy thing. And that has been the subject of some criticism and also studies that it had no material effect.
So, while this guy wasn't as blatantly wrong as the above suggests, this is more FUD conspiracy theory shit.
Stop it, get help. A member of the other team concedes a point? Great! Use that concession against them. Don't muddy the water. Don't help the fascists. You need to fight the urge for precision, because that urge aids and abets the liars and grifters.

You think there isn't wiggle room with the definition of "person" with this administration?
Considering the definition of person, we should endeavor to make Delaware the most populous state by 2030.

All day to throw. Both lines are garbage. That’s a bigger problem than QB. Sub in for Arch all you want. It won’t matter if you can neither protect nor get to the QB.

The offense sucking is one thing. But I was told we had lots of good pass rushers. Are we saving them for OU?

Tilman is cozy with Trump
He's also gone out of his way to snub the Longhorns. The most recent example being lighting up the Tower of the Americas to support the Washington Huskies when we played them in the Alamo Bowl.
He's a cunt who just had to lay off all his employees as Covid lockdowns started but before the PPP and other bailouts to businesses were announced. Fuck him and every establishment he owns, including the Rockets. I say that as a lifelong fan, until he bought them.

I was wrong. Golf still sucks.
Good. It's hard enough to get a tee time as it is. Go play pickleball.
I'm looking forward to a bunch of folks dropping their memberships in the upcoming economic collapse. I loved the 3 hour rounds of the first 3-4 weeks of COVID before everyone realized golf courses never shut down.

Yep. Pretty soon protesting will get dangerous. Even for white folks. A bunch of us will need our presence scrubbed from here and other spots on the internet.
