1. Energy (Data from March 23): To date, the average gasoline price during President Biden’s term — with nearly two years still to go — is $3.60/gallon. That is on a pace to be the highest average under any president. Here is how prices stack up per gallon, from lowest to highest average for their terms: Joe Biden (partial term) — $3.60 Barack Obama first term — $3.12 Barack Obama second term — $2.95 George W. Bush second term — $2.77 Donald Trump — $2.57 George W. Bush first term — $1.59 2. Immigration: I mean, do you really need a chart on this one? It's kind of embarrassing for Biden/Harris For context a June 2024 CNN poll: "But on the subject of immigration, voters were asked if they think Biden or Trump would better handle the issue if president. Just 28% of voters prefer Biden, while a significantly higher 50% prefer Trump." 3. Trade (Sorry, this is the best I could do with the space I have. Kind of a large topic): The YouGov poll found 42 percent of Americans somewhat approve of Trump’s approach to foreign trade, 11 percent higher than Biden’s 31 percent. At the same time, 28 percent strongly or somewhat disapprove of Trump’s trade policies, while 36 percent said the same about Biden’s policies, per the survey.

Is he going to lose? He just might. Damn good chance of it. But as far as policy goes (Energy, Immigration, Trade, etc.), I think he has not only talked about it, but also acted on it with excellent results.

You are correct, sir.

I have no huge issues with Trump, the candidate. I have huge issues with Kamala, the candidate. Take all the personal stuff away from both of them. Take race & gender away from the equation. Take away age. Focus on their policy vision. That's who gets my vote. And it's not Kamala.

I agree with you to a point. Although, as talented as though teams were, it took a coach to scheme towards those talents. To be honest, I didn't care for Reyes. I never really said that while he was coaching, because I didn't feel it was beneficial.

I knew those to be true, and that's why I assumed that the charge was capital murder. Like I said, "First degree capital murder" probably just sounded way more catchy to the reporter.

It has taken me forever to realize this, but not everyone sees things the way I do. Can you believe it? And unfortunately, at least half the country is ok with the left side of things being the way forward. Look, by and large, people are uninformed (dare I say stupid, even). Kamala had a less favorable rating than Biden before the coup. Now, she's gotten higher numbers than Biden. Why? What changed? The uninformed sheep is what changed. The tide changed. The day of the week changed. How can people living through this economy support Kamala? Because it's cool and hip to vote for her. I could honestly write a 1,000 word essay on why their is a good chance that Kamala wins this November. I just don't have it in me.

Just some reporter trying to sensationalize with lots of buzzwords. I would guess with a fetus and the mother being murdered, it could be a capital offense?

Because this is kid's football, and that's what guys do beginning with 5 & 6 year old flag. It never ends.

Yep.

Exactly. A lot of times, you don’t even know your number ones are yet.

Don’t throw us in there. Of course we backed it up the last 2 years in a row. 😉

They definitely could. I can’t remember the last time they won the district.

You and I both know our district hasn’t had much to be proud of. But good luck to the Raiders and the Bears both.

Mostly true. Doesn’t take away from the Bears underperforming the last couple seasons. This year will be no different from what I gather.

Probably true. I was just ribbing my buddy @setxathlete14 that I wouldn’t go too hard on Lumberton when the underperforming Bears still roam the woods of SETX. 😇

Silly Willy is back!!!! ❤️

Yeah, all eyes on that LCM powerhouse, I guess. Lol.

No one is doubting. I played football for the Raiders, have always been a Raider fan, had 3 kids graduate from there (some before and after you), been the president of the booster club, announced the football games for about 4 seasons... I'm not a doubter - but it is fair to question their potential with what they just graduated. GO RAIDERS!

You may be “Right”

Glad to hear there were lots of positives for the Mustangs. Kinda worried about the Raiders. They lost a lot from last year. This would've been a much different scrimmage a year ago. All in all though, it's still early.

Why doesn't everyone just shut the hell up and act like adults. State your point...argue your position, but knock off all the personal insults. This is friggin' ridiculous.

I didn't hear about that one. Sweet!

Yeah, I don't have an issue with her riding on his coat tails. My issue is the media portrayed it as a bad move when Trump proposed it and applauded it when Ho-Mala proposed it.

Well, this is not fake: Kamala was pretty down about her likability and approval ratings. She wanted to be famous like Obama. One of Kamala’s staffers told her “Fame will only come to you after you succeed.” Kamala thought for a minute and said, “Ok, who is Seed?”
