Working class would love to hear stores how some ultra liberal went to private school for four years for gender studies, jacked off in Europe for a semester and borrowed every penny and now wants help.

There is no sob story for the kid that went to junior college and state school and worked part time.

1) Don’t lump B1G into SEC. That’s a a joke.
2) B12 top four would fare well in B1G.
3) if your point is that Iowa would win the B12, that’s a joke, too.
4) OSU and Oregon would each have three losses vs an SEC schedule

Holy shit. These are opinions, so they can’t be disproven.

It’s also an opinion that Rosanne Barr is hotter than Heidi Klum.

In both cases, it’s probably not worth engaging with the holder of such opinions.

Good luck with whatever it is you do. It must be a struggle.

Yes. Tennessee. That state that has been so pro-illegal immigration. Must be Biden's fault.

He was pretty lost at times which probably contributed to the bad positioning on defense, but I was impressed with his size. He was taller and more solid than I realized. He is sized like a player that always gives Iowa fits and am hoping the more familiar he gets with his role the more he can contribute. He certainly isn't afraid to bang inside which this team needs.

Did not have Ukraine Air Force bombing territory in Russia in November 2024 on my bingo card back when they launched their three day war in February 2021.

There's a place for tariffs up to the point where a government subsidizes exports to can market share. After that, punitive tariffs on imports are intended to help the government imposing the tariffs gain revenue and stimulate that country's domestic production. Just like corporate taxes, the consumer actually is paying more.

Yes, it can be a negotiating tactic as long as the exporting country thinks it will happen. At some point a tariff will have to happen for it to continue to ebe a negotiating point.

Understood.
Trump’s background as a real estate guy in NYC gives him a mindset, if you will, about what’s considered “tough” in negotiations. He is still operating in that mindset.
We’ve been concentrating on our Southern border and it commands that attention but I read an interesting statistic about our northern border yesterday - illegals entering from Canada in 2023 were at a 17 year high. And they came from 97 different countries. Trudeau knows they have to step it up.

This truly was a disservice,.. High schools really need to bring back the trade classes also like shop, welding, auto repair, etc...

Click to expand...

Bring back? What high schools have dropped them?

The emphasis you see with them is completely dependent on the students attending the school. Kids in highly affluent, rich districts rarely want to be in autoshop classes so those schools don't prioritize them. No point on having a class that no one wants to take. You have a far larger crowd wanting to take AP classes though so that's where the money goes. The school I work at has a very highly developed trade skill (which is called Technology Education these days) department. In fact, it is possible for students to get a full welding certification before they have graduated.

Another $24 billion. These people are f***ing insane. And the pubs will line up behind Lady Lindsey, Moscow Mitch and the little garden gnome Mike Johnson, dicks in hand, to vote AYE!

I pointed this out earlier but PJ is taking the “over the top” type of messaging. Not the smartest idea imo

KF is not getting fired nor should he. He might win 9 games this year and can stay until he feels he is done imo.

We all feel a little disappointed on this year but c'mon.

My guess is they’re waiting until he’s in office. Takes away the “He’s not even in office yet and the Democrats are determined to take him down!” nonsense.

If they aren’t fighting come January it will be disappointing.

Click to expand...

They will definitely be fighting come January. You can already see the groundwork of what will be the counter points on immigration, the economy, tariffs, etc… Now how Americans portray the messaging is another story.

The Dems need new Leadership to pop up and take control of that party imo. They have some good people that can make a difference. They seem to be banking on Hakeem Jefferies to take charge.

They were right to keep Harris away from Rogan. There is no possible way she could survive a three hour interview. Rogan would have torn her up by asking some very basic and obvious questions, then hitting her with a follow up. Her verbose, word salad answers wouldn't cut the mustard.

Ummm, she was running for President. If she couldn't handle a Rogan interview, how could she have been one of the most powerful people in the world.

Terrified that they are going to lose their jobs? Fine.

Terrified because they've been called out on social media by a powerful billionaire with millions of followers? That's different. This is despicable behavior by a man that has everything - except a conscious.

pjhawk said:

How would the Democrats be doubling down on some 'strategy' by not working with the Republicans? What the hell are you even talking about?

The Democrats when in or out of power are ALWAYS trying to cut deals with the Republicans, ALWAYS.

I firmly believe they should not be making deals or trying to help/normalize/legitimize a party that has turned into an authoritarian/fascist cult. The Democrats should not want any perception of linkage per voters with this trash heap of a Presidency when the voters go to the polls in 26 and 28.

I don't think it would have made a difference and from what staffers have been saying, Harris' internal polling never had her really in the race at all. This election was lost when Biden decided to try and run again and didn't allow for a regular primary process. She was never able to make up the polling difference (which, once again shows that public polling has all the validity of preseason college football polls).

However, not going on Joe Rogan was a critical error, and really the only preventable mistake she made. She was clearly trying to reach those voters during the campaign (and now hearing about their internal polling it becomes clear why as they wanted to take away Trump voters and really try to close the gap). Whoever those two people were should never work in politics again. It was an opportunity for 3 hours with the people she was trying to court and it not being filtered through the right wing media that they usually only hear about her with. If there is a lesson from her campaign that is kept, that is the one that needs to be a take away. Go to where the people you are trying to convince to vote for you are. Trump did this and it paid off for him.

The Biden stuff was not her fault and she ultimately couldn't control that so I don't hold her responsible for that.
