  1. "It's about how old your ideas are" is genuinely a fantastic rebuttal.
  2. This is an absolutely insane sentence to say out loud and it is batshit that there will be zero repercussions for it.
  3. The thing is, Shane has a number of SNL-esque (NSFW) sketches on Youtube that absolutely kill. He definitely has the skillset, even if it didn't land this weekend. My working theory is that he doesn't fully love being the "Republican" comedian. He's good at hanging with the bros and shooting the shit, which is why he's developed the Barstool following, but I saw him in Houston a few months ago and he seemed noticeably uneasy by the very vocal right-wing attitude in the room. I thought it could have just been an off night for him, but seeing his reaction to the lukewarm SNL audience has given my theory another data point. His two specials have been filmed in Austin and (just outside) Washington, DC, if that speaks to what audience demographic he prefers.
  4. There are 200k Muslims in Muslim. There are 100k Jews. I understand the importance of Michigan, but no President will reshape their entire policy over a gain of AT MOST 100k votes. And the inconvenient truth is that short of Biden personally assassinating Bibi, there likely isn't a realistic action that he can take that will satisfy most of them. The quote from the person who has lost 30 family members shows that they are not thinking rationally about this, nor should they be tbh.
  5. He’s old as fuck and that worries me. <— a legitimate concern He hasn’t done anything to win my vote. <— a cry for attention from a lazy person
  6. The thing about these people is that 95% of them will never vote for the Democratic Party, but need to come up with a new reason every 4 years. 2016 was Bernie, 2020 was Tara Reade, 2024 is Gaza. These aren't lost votes, they’re just people that know who to bitch to in order to get attention. They get way too much attention for a group that is inconsequential.
  7. Wild story, but the main takeaway is that the same guys behind Kanye's stupid campaign are working with Dean Phillips. Explains a lot. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/biden-robocall-new-hampshire-strategist-rcna139760
  8. Worth noting that Rufo is THE guy that created the CRT panic, has been a consistent voice against the LGBTQ agenda, and he was the leader of the online mob against the former Harvard president. It's easy to dismiss him as a lunatic, but this lunatic is seemingly at the forefront of Republican messaging over the last few years.
  9. I will forever be amazed that a significant number of Longhorn grads will mock every single aspect of aggy, yet decide that political issues are where those goobers have it correct.
  10. Real question, no snark: Anything to back this up or just vibes?
  11. To be clear, Trump didn’t reveal any VP shortlist. Laura Ingraham listed like ten names and then asked if they were all on Trump’s potential list, and he replied “they are.” That Malaysian doofus Ian Cheong shockingly wrote a misleading tweet.
  12. I think the issue is that he didn't stick the landing. Framing the discussion as merely "two 900 year old dinosaurs running for office" is a fine and valid observation as long as there is some sort of acknowledgement of the unique and unprecedented danger that Trump presents. Without that second part, it's just the same both-sides bullshit that has normalized Trump to the masses.
  13. It is still insane to me that there is infinitely more discourse around the need for Democrats to soul search and replace a sitting fucking President on the ticket than Republicans with Trump. "Democrats are the only ones we expect to take this shit seriously" should be the subtitle to the book that could be written about the current state of our country.
  14. Additionally, I remain convinced that the first woman president will have to be a Republican. The right-wing media megaphone is a well-oiled machine at tearing down women.
  15. Chris Gilbert back, as Assistant GM https://footballscoop.com/news/sources-texas-hiring-fbs-assistant-former-dallas-area-prep-coach-as-assistant-g-m
  16. The most predictable human who has ever existed.
  17. "You will have as many babies as my God wants you to have." The viewpoint is as simple as that.
  18. texags before 2023 season: sip roster overrated, teams will be frothing at the mouth to beat tu on the way out, at least 5 or 6 possible losses on the schedule texags after 2023 season: sips obviously had the best roster in conference, they had a joke of a schedule, anything less than undefeated is a sign that their coach sucked
  19. It is so, so depressing that this performative bullshit is deemed to be an effective political strategy.
  20. Wish I could bet my mortgage on some sort of "WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME IS WORTH THAN NAVALNY!" statement in the next 18-36 hours.
  21. Tucker publishing Russian propaganda the day before Putin kills his political opponent is a first ballot Cuck Hall of Fame entry.
