  1. I can't help but laugh... my ultra religious, Pentecostal friends who believe that God sent Trump, despite the fact that his wife's nudes are available online. Did you really ever think that we'd have a First Lady's nudes? Much less did you believe that she would be the wife of a "REPUBLICAN?" When the Ds say that the Rs can no longer claim to be the moral bunch, they aren't lying.
  2. No, that's a carefully thought out opinion based on piles of empirical evidence. You'll probably have to google that.
  3. Reading comprehension, my friend. "He was barely better than the alternative... That doesn't make him the greatest president of all times like y'all believe."
  4. He was barely better than the alternative... That doesn't make him the greatest president of all times like y'all believe. 1. Lost both houses of congress 2. Failed to get re-elected 3 Exploded the national debt 4. Impeached twice 5. Led insurrection after losing re-election bid 6. Revolving door of aides/cabinet members 7. Did nothing to quell the BLM riots As you can tell, there are plenty of quantifiable reasons that he was not a good leader besides "mean tweets."
  5. Meh... Jimmy Carter probably still ranks as the worst performance by a President. Trump was bad in a lot of areas, but the economy was working for the first three or so years of his presidency. Other than that he was a complete clown. And his supporters are just as bad. Biden isn't doing well at all.... diplomatically, economically, fighting the pandemic, getting his agenda pushed forward, etc... About all he'd need to steal Carter's crown is to have a really messy foreign conflict like the Iranian Hostage Crisis. The Afghanistan crap show didn't last long enough when compared to Carter's 400+ days of embarassment.
  6. Just to clarify… I honestly don’t care who they pick… as long as they put the Mustangs in the best possible position to win games, and that their race wasn’t a factor in the selection process.
  7. If that community is voicing an opinion on a coaching choice based on race, then “no.” There’s no difference in a school refusing to hire a coach because he’s black than a school hiring a coach because he’s black. Regardless of whether or not you believe there’s a difference. A lot of people have been brainwashed into believing that this new version of racism is somehow “better” than the old one. It’s not. There’s no difference between saying “I want a coach that reflects the community” and saying “those (fill in the blanks) need to stay over there with their own kind.”
  8. The whole thing is so subjective. I watched the guy in the dually with his horses and family that ended up getting caught up in a riot and thought "I'd have probably opened fire" if they were mobbing my truck trying to injure my livestock, etc... That guy had his family and potentially his livelihood at the risk of that mob in broad daylight. I'm probably shooting my way out of there if I'm that guy. Same difference if I'm a truck driver and they start trying to yank my air hoses to disable my truck.... I'd rather be judged than get Reginald Denny'd. Daylight or not. This one is difficult...
  9. Most parties won't re-nominate a candidate. If they've put their whole weight behind somebody and he/she doesn't deliver, they won't do it again. She came up short against Obama in 2008 in the primaries and short against Trump in the general in 2016. The sad thing is that her best opportunity would have been in 2004. When that cycle started in 2003 nobody believed that W Bush could be beat. Hillary sat out by mistake, I believe. By the time that the election came around in the fall of 2004, Bush had his hands full with Kerry.... the "I guess nobody else is gonna run" candidate. People still had pretty fond memories of the Clintons at that point... I think history might have worked out totally different if she'd run in 2004.
  10. I don't think she's got what it takes, either. I've got my money on Mayor Pete or someone like him. Probably not ethnic this time and probably not queer, but a little more palatable.
  11. C'mon, man! Are you new here? For YEARS the WOS faithful have been clamoring for a black coach. They even floated a petition this fall wanting CT fired for "racism." I don't care who they hire... I just think it's funny when racists say something racist and then accuse everybody else of being exactly that.... racist for pointing out their racism. You can't blame the voice of truth (me) for pointing out the blatant racism by WOS fans. But you can rest assured that the next coach will be black. Care to make a bet? This is about a woke administration (remember the "blue link" defense) putting their stamp on a once proud program. Nothing more, nothing less.
  12. In Texas you have the right to defend your property with force... I'm thinking that this would be justified in my mind, but I've been wrong before. If you're trying to defend your property from continued criminal mischief at night, I think that you should be fine legally. It's not prudent, and in my mind I probably wouldn't want to end somebody's life over my vehicle, but if my family (or like in the case of that guy with a horse trailer back in 2020 in a BLM riot) being threatened, I'd probably put somebody down. In texas anyways. TVC should weigh in.
  13. I met him at the BBB Torch Awards a few years back. He's not even a good comedian, much less a good candidate for the highest political office in the state. Man's not funny, just corny.
  14. Well, it looks like the reformed BISD Board of Trustees is still trying to get the Stadium renamed. Supposedly they have the votes this year. [Hidden Content] Maybe once this issue is resolved to the racists' satisfaction, they can get down to the less important things like standardized testing scores being in the toilets.
  15. That’s pretty funny considering that all y’all do is cry about Trump losing to an imbecile… and thinking things will be different the next time around.
  16. I'm not gonna lie... I was completely surprised that we didn't have an announcement yesterday on MLK Day. Winning football games is nice, but when you have the chance to right the wrongs of the past 400 years, you hire the black coach. Sorry, Tow-B.
  17. Did y'all see where Trump is already shredding Desantis at his rallies? The next time you won't have a sleepy Biden as competition... they'll put somebody likable up who will walk all over Trump. The masses aren't going to go form hating Trump to loving him... they'll just hate Biden and elect somebody who is neither Trump or Biden. If Trump runs again, the Dems will win. Mark it down. *Even if Trump doesn't win the R nomination, so many of his hare-brained supporters will pout instead of voting in the general. It amazes me how blind his followers are.
  18. That's what I've been saying all along. Trump's base was gonna support him no matter what... they still do. It made no sense to keep playing to his base while alienating the people in the middle whose votes he needed to get elected. He needed to stop being a jerk just to make the mouth breathers in the MAGA hats cheer at his Nazi rallies.
  19. Huh? I did watch the debates.... And I had a literal crisis of conscience on whether or not I could vote for him again after the way he behaved in the first debate. By the time the third debate (the second got canceled) came around, I think he'd already lost the election. That man did not deserve to be our President.... regardless of how "good" he was for the economy. He was a horrible, divisive, repugnant pig of a man whose true colors were once again shown by the fit(s) he threw after he'd lost the election. I remember how he was "offended" that Hillary didn't call on election night to concede... but then he refused to accept the results of the next election, up to and including a failed insurrection at our capitol. But don't blame his performance... blame people who reacted to his performance and voted against him.
  20. No, Trump's behavior worked against the good of the country. If he had behaved like a decent person, he'd be in the oval office today. Just because you condone his behavior obviously doesn't mean that everybody else will overlook his abrasiveness, rudeness, and lawlessness. He thought the rules didn't apply to him, and now he's done. Unfortunately the rest of us got screwed, too.
  21. The example is spot on. You're a Trump fan (instead of a Giants fan). Trump lost the election (like the Giants had a crappy year). You're blaming the Giants fans who didn't go to the games and the opposing teams as the reason that the Giants had a bad year. Trump screwed himself. I understand that you fell for his "America First" theme, but you really need to look at the facts. He got molly-whopped by the worst candidate ever. That's not the worst candidate ever's fault. He did his job. Trump failed miserably at his (getting people to vote for him). Now you want to cry about the refs, too (the fixed election lie).
  22. coup /ko͞o/ noun 1. a sudden, violent, and illegal seizure of power from a government. I don't remember the sudden violent, illegal seizure of power... What did I miss?
