  1. Trump going would be a fairly big deal. Trump brings a decades long established "authentic" personality that nobody else in the dugout is going to be able to recreate. People are stupid and many don't use the greatest advantage humans have as a species much to their advantage. However, what still works very well for most people is the basic lizard brain, animal instincts, that Trump taps into. It's how he's gotten away with saying so much insane stuff as people just giggle and say, "oh that's just Trump being Trump. He appeals to the people who get sucked into insane wrestling screeds and storylines (sorry not sorry if you like wrestling) and he does it extremely well. Attempts to fake that by others will trigger the lizard brain to pull away. Don't get me wrong we still have the basic Brisket problem of "what do we do with all the dumbasses?" but it would dial them back some
  2. GOP Voters are a lost cause it's pressing the attack for all the non-GOP voters Thirty-seven percent of voters approve of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president, while 55 percent disapprove. In Quinnipiac University's July 16 poll, 40 percent of voters approved and 54 percent disapproved. In today's poll, Republicans (84 - 9 percent) approve, while Democrats (98 - 1 percent) and independents (58 - 31 percent) disapprove.
  3. This is the attack that must be pressed: ridicule, derision, anger, confrontation. Put them in a box and make them repeatedly uncomfortable with their inability to justify any of what is going on.
  4. I dunno man, I got about all the fucking mental illness in this world on full display that I can handle right now.
  5. Didn't say she was, but I'm guessing most of the people she was around at a young age were....
  6. Now you do realize that what probably works for those two behind the scenes of all the glitz, glam and fame is that Kelce is a dude who grew up in Cleveland, OH and Swift is a chick who grew up in western PA. The simplicity of KC is probably kind of a refreshing callback to simpler times.
  7. A real coach would have been able to deal with Micah rather than tucking tail and immediately getting rid of him.
  8. One of my most fun road game trips was going to Lincoln in 2010 with that shit ass team and spaz QB and still beating these dipshits as they were tucking their tail and running into the oblivion of the Big 10.
  9. Tay Tay football sighting one on the season
  10. Maybe they want medical data on westerners to devise an even better lab leak virus Or Maybe they are just trying to figure out how to make us some tastier Kung Pao.
  11. Nothing to add other than Ohio State
  12. Preach
  13. Yea uh not even remotely the same situation.
  14. The Arch nonsense needs to die. 1. It would infer that the Jones actually have some deep plan beyond Jerry watched his glory hole days on the Netflix show and thought "well maybe I could trade Herschel again, spice it up, GM the hell out of this thing" 2. The Mannings would tell the Cowboys to fuck right off. 3. Arch is coming back for 2026
  15. You may joke but the Democrats have long worn the "free shit party" label....I mean if you are gonna wear it anyway why not lean hard into it???
  16. Eh you may be reading too much into run of the mill Dunning-Kruger.
  17. We'll let you know when we lose a whole franchise.
  18. What do they have to do? Give people hope that they can prevail. That means the times for words and legal maneuvering on their own are over....you've been completely flanked there. You have to agitate, be willing to get arrested, push the opposition's buttons so that they tighten their grip even more, etc. Why would any middle-class person, etc, in America stick their neck out right now and risk it all just to get tossed aside in some one-off move that meant nothing? Most people don't want to fight and lose out there on their own. Instead, they made some speeches and ran away.
  19. Jerry’s the common denominator. Never forget that.
  20. The only decent thing this guy did for Texas was leave and fetch Elvis Andrus (a Venezuelan) in the process.
  21. I think the problem with Ds is they would take more action but they are waiting around on the American people to make it safe for them. Even I have to admit being slightly surprised at the overall lack of civil disorder this past summer. But therein lies the problem with the Ds. They are waiting around to be lead by the people instead of being the leaders they are supposed to be.
