Ain’t no one surprised.

Ds won pretty decisively in NY tonight.

At this point now that Trump is solidifying his hold on the R party the only thing that can turn the situation around is a true thumping of them in November. If people turn out it could happen.

No, and he never did except for an episode of blocking it out in an area near Crimea for a time.

And today Trump managed to make himself look even less sharp than Biden does. https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/10/politics/trump-south-carolina-primary-haley/index.html

There is truth in that. When you get down to it about a third of the people will be voting for Trump. The other 2/3 s can stop him if they can be bothered to.

The outcome of the election is largely up to the will of the American people. Yes, I know the Electoral College slants in favour of whoever is the R nominee but even so in a semi-democracy the people get the leaders they deserve. If Trump gets in again who is to blame? It is not the media or the corporations. Neither of these vote. The people vote if they are so inclined. It is just freaking mind boggling.

I am more critical of those who respond to trolls than I am to the trolls themselves.

Now what? Biden is called old and infirm. Then he goes and basically confirms it. Is it too late to find a qualified D candidate? Yes, it probably is. A second Trump term is looking more and more likely.

I'm pretty sure we all know and knew that the narrowly decided CO ruling would not stand. It is going to be overturned most likely unanimously.

Oh fer the love of god! You have the very best investment banks in the world. Isn't that enough?

Expectations are very low and being met daily.

Yes to this. The comment he made was a little cryptic and could easily be sarcasm. And his recent posting record shows that he mostly posts helpful comments in other forums here and not much in SC.

Hopefully SCOTUS will choose not to hear his appeal.

Is there such an affliction as “trollism”?

Well for one Gary Bettman is working with the forces of darkness to move the Jets to New Orleans or Peoria.

Yes I know. You have a black friend and a gay one as well.

That is because you are laser focused on your anger over the feeling that someone may get something you don’t feel they necessarily deserve. And are completely unwilling to acknowledge the advantages you have and did nothing to deserve. It is an egregious form of entitlement.

Woke is like obscenity. I can’t define it but I know it when I see it.

Conspiracy believers and antivaxxers both haunt the dz here. But are a small minority.

I remember that night. You are correct.

70k? That’s probably about what it will cost her to fly her jet from Tokyo to see him play in the big game.

That is a big project. 7 square miles of desert needed. California is not the only state that can do this, but not every state can. I found this interesting page on CA energy sources. It's already 2 years old so it doesn't include this facility coming on line. https://www.energy.ca.gov/data-reports/energy-almanac/california-electricity-data/2022-total-system-electric-generation

Sometimes you get what you deserve.

Uh.... it's Saturday night and I have company? Read the thread from the top. If you don't get it it will be because you choose not to. The explanation is right in it. There is nothing more for me to say.
