Realistically, the people who say stuff like this are the people who the mean tweets appeal to. But those people aren’t going to vote Democrat if he doesn’t use social media to be childish and insulting. It’s the people that the tweets bothered who matter, because they’re the ones that decided the election. And you guys can say the same things over and over about people needing to “get thicker skin”, but it’s not going to change how they feel. You can blame the people who decided to vote against him, but you have to ask yourself which would be better: trump not acting like a buffoon on social media and us still having a competent Republican president, or him insulting people to pump up his supporters, but us having a senile geriatric in office who’s running the country into the ground. Very few on the left were excited about Biden, but the overwhelming majority of them hate trump. He bent over backwards to make sure of it, and it came back to bite him.

Yup. That’s where the 10% of voters I’m referring to reside. My number honestly is probably a little high. Trump could kill kittens on live tv and still carry Texas, and Biden could push an old lady in front of a train and still carry California. It’s your swing states that are around 50/50 red/blue that decide the election. And breaking it down even further, it’s the small percentage of voters in those states who don’t cast their vote based on party who truly decide the election.

about 10% of voters decide every election. These are the "fools" the republicans have to court, and that Trump has to quit alienating.

as soon as one of you guys admits that this arrogant blowhard you defend alienated the voters he needed to win reelection. THEY made the choice they made because HE acted like a petulant child. It doesn't matter if they made the wrong choice at this point or not, we're stuck with it. And at some point the trump apologists have to realize that the country is going to be run into the ground if the focus is on blaming "the (insert derogatory adjective here) left" and not on finding ways to make republican candidates palatable to the swing voters necessary to win a presidential election. Biden is setting the country up to vote for a republican in the next election. Hopefully Trump doesn't screw it up.

Ted isn't always my favorite politician, but I actually think this is brilliant... and hilarious.

Trump crapping all over him in the press the day after his death is exactly the sort of thing that will drive undecided and moderate voters away. but like you guys say, being a jerk shouldn't matter.

that's a major issue for people on the far edges of politics in both directions: they can't understand how anybody could possibly believe anything so different as them as to vote for another party, and considers anyone who does an idiot. this absolute refusal to believe that there's a large chunk of our country who is willing to vote either party based on their perception of the candidates is mind-boggling. a big portion of our population doesn't identify with either party, or has strong beliefs both directions. i don't understand why there's such disbelief that a substantial amount of people in our country chose to vote against a competent president because he's a jerk and they don't like him, or how they perceive he makes our country look. I'm also not sure how there's an inability to understand that millions of apathetic democratic voters who wouldn't have bothered to get out and vote for biden absolutely showed up and voted against trump. The thing is, regardless of how insignificant trump apologists pretend the effect his behavior had on the election, he lost several key battleground states by mere thousands of votes. to put things in perspective, it took only approximately 2 voters per 1000 in georgia and arizona to change their vote to biden from trump because they couldn't stand Trump to swing the election in Biden's favor. the same holds true for apathetic voters. looking at states where the division is close to 50/50 between red/blue, if less than 1/4 of 1% of all votes cast were from people who got out to vote against trump who wouldn't have otherwise voted, that was more than enough to turn the election from red to blue in both Georgia and Arizona. the ratio was closer to 5 in 1000 in wisconsin, and slightly higher, but still very small in other swing states. it's time to quit pretending that his behavior didn't cost him the election, or we're likely looking at history to repeat itself, no matter how bad biden is.

The wording “thrown from a moving vehicle” is definitely open to interpretation, which is how I saw it worded in the article. Was she pushed from or thrown from the vehicle? Because when I hear “thrown”, I think of someone either being on the vehicle and falling off, or falling out of the back of a truck. Or it could be someone grabbed them and threw them out.

funny that you say this... last deer season I was at a gas station near my deer lease outside Jefferson. There were some old men sitting at tables talking about two things: the weather, and West Orange Stark's JV football program. It's not just coaches taking notice

They also got hosed on a terrible no call on an OPI that would’ve probably won them the game

What makes it even better is everyone else in the division lost.

Great win! The cowboys found a way to win the type of game they’ve been finding ways to lose for the past 25 years

Awful coverage there.

Ugly game. Dak has been sloppy, coaching questionable, and the refs gave them a TD and took one away from Dallas. Should’ve been a 14-point win

I’m all for people being who they want to be. As long as they’re old enough to make the decision, and as long as their decision doesn’t intrude on the rights of someone else. A man deciding to become a woman and then destroying biological women in sports competitions isn’t fair to women. I’m glad Texas is taking a stand against this.

Pulling for the horns. I’ll take them in a close game 27-20

Just going on results and records. I watched the Carthage game, that’s it. With no affiliation to either school I’m not going to take the time to go watch film before engaging in some casual back and forth.

I picked Crosby, but thought it would be closer. TC with a couple of scores in garbage time to make this a little more respectable. I take back the things I said earlier in the thread. I was wrong.
