At first I thought Pocahontas might make a good running mate, but then I realized the PAH could never tolerate another female with far more charisma on the same ticket. I suspect the Queen Bee Syndrome is strong in her. So strong.

Uncle Joe polls better than anybody BY FAR. Cue the pics of him nuzzling various women at WH ceremonies, I guess.

Russia interfered in elections the U.S., France, Germany, Italy, and Mexico. We now know that they weighed heavily into the Brexit vote. All of this was done based on Putin's desire to de-stabilize democracy wherever it exists. Putin is a criminal who has amassed a billionaire's fortune while in office, a despot who murders his political enemies, journalists, and defectors of his regime with impunity.


Now. Donnie's going to play golf for two days in Scotland, and then he's going to meet with the despot who owns him. Lock, stock, and barrel owned. And Donnie will make noises that their meeting was productive and "the best ever". All is well; Putin is fine. We're all people, etc.


I bet even the most jaded trumptards suspect Trump is somewhat traitorous.

Goddam. Such is the sorry state of UT football.

We lost our 30 year spot in the media lot when that SOB Currie took over. I almost didn't renew my season tickets but my son and DIL have seats beside us and the wife made the final call.

Speaking of OUR President:

My pre poll closing prediction was a pretty damn close calling of the race was it not? Only thing I missed was leaving out WI.

No idea who is going to win, but I see the hyperbole is in full effect.

I believe the exit polls will be way off and will over estimate her and underestimate him. Go ahead and laugh but there are lots of folks out there who are voting Trump, but don't want to be harassed so they don't talk about it. I didn't put Trump sticker on wife's car for that very reason and I'm in East TN.

This will be reflected in the lateness of calls as the actual vote will not match the exit polls. Will it be enough to turn MI, CO, NH, NC, FL, NV, PA, VA red? My guess is Philly comes through with 300% turnout again with somehow having zero votes for Trump not even by mistake, NC goes trump maybe before 10pm, CO probably stays blue but very close, FL/OH both go red..OH 1st as S.FL will once again be last to report by hours as they try and figure out if they can manufacture enough votes but maybe not till 11 or later, Reid abuse may power NV her way in which case he needs MI which won't be called for awhile. NH only matters if he wins NV and loses MI+PA+VA. To many morons moving south because they hate taxes etc but then vote like they did in northeast.

I've got some Woodford in the tail gate van either way.

Criminal vs. Crass = Crass ALL day long. I'm even supporting Brady and Belichick now.

But just imagine...would it not be glorious to see CNN/MSNBC/ABC/CBS/NBC losing their collective minds if they have to declare Trump the winner?


Yes it was glorious. What's even better is youtube has the full election night videos for tons of networks. Listening to them while working in yard, on cars, etc is pretty funny. Every single one starts out with he has no chance, to surprise as it tightens up, to disbelief as FL is 95% in and OH/NC turn, to every excuse in the book from every -ism and -phobia you can think of to blaming Comey and Russia. Nobody gave him a chance and they just couldn't understand it.

The bias was amazing. The foreign networks were the worst even beyond MSNBC. CBC, Sky, BBC, French, German, they were amazingly biased. Watching Fusion TV coverage and TYT was awesome as well. All in all listened/watched full coverage from ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, MSNBC, PBS, FoxNews, Fox Biz, CBC, Sky, BBC, French 1(?), TYT, Fusion TV, Flex the Vote (filled with crying 20 somethings), Yahoo NEWs, RT (they were pissed Hillary lost), Blaze, Daily Wire, Bloomberg, NYT (partial), The View (HAH!), some Colbert, some Daily Show, and a few I'm missing.

Now we need Thomas to want to retire so he can be replaced with a 40 year old.

Assuming Brett gets confirmed, I doubt Roe gets overturned. Roberts proved he's a pussy with his conjuring of a fine into a tax so he didn't have to make the tough vote on Obamacare. He will cobble together some further restrictions, but he won't vote to overturn it.

They guys next to us will be still tailgating there, but they aren't going to bother with satellite dish etc. Might be able to stream on ATT as they added a crap ton of microcells to increase capacity on gameday, but it could still be glitchy.

Anybody want a van?

None of those. Purely a tailgate van packed to the gills except during a home game. Besides it has windows all around.

And you would lose your bet. Trump meeting with Putin is no more “treacherous” than this...

Can you imagine if Trump has been recorded telling the Russian President, “After my election, I will have more flexibility,” ?

really

who opened the door for them?

from last year

Donna Brazile says in her new book the Democratic National Committee (DNC) went against professional advice and sat idly for a month while Russians stole data because primaries were still underway in a number of states.

In May, when CrowdStrike recommended that we take down our system and rebuild it, the DNC told them to wait a month, because the state primaries for the presidential election were still underway, and the party and the staff needed to be at their computers to manage these efforts,” Brazile wrote in her new book, “Hacks.”

“For a whole month, CrowdStrike watched Cozy Bear and Fancy Bear operating. Cozy Bear was the hacking force that had been in the DNC system for nearly a year.”



Cozy Bear and Fancy Bear are cybersecurity firms that have reported ties with Russian hackers. Both groups are blamed for the hacks on the DNC in 2016. CrowdStrike is a private U.S. cybersecurity firm that oversaw the protection of the DNC’s servers.

so now is the time to indict 12 Russians for cyberattacks--

hypocrites

Yeah, russkies had hacked for a full year before they'd been discovered so that "idle month" made all the difference, crash. Jesus.

Whatever putin has over Donnie, it can't be a pee pee tape. That shitshow I just witnessed between those two is ten times worse than any potential romp with hookers Trump may have had. That you or anybody else would want to defend Trump kissing up to Putin is pathetic. Pathetic and sad.

I heard even John McCain, Mike Schmidt, Bob Corker, George Will, Jeff Flake, Joe Scarborough, Mike Bloomberg, Arnold Schwartzeneger, Bill Krystol and Mitt Romney denounced Trump's presser. Sure looks like Trump has lost their vote and endorsements for 2020. I'm sure he'll soldier on somehow.

Trump says and tweets crazy stuff all the time that make even his supporters sigh and roll their eyes. This is nothing new.

The Wall Street Journal‘s editorial board has often been at odds with the paper’s own reporting during the Trump presidency, frequently opting to defend the administration in spite of the journalism exposing its scandals.

Not so on Tuesday, as the Editorial Board blasted Trump’s disastrous press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin as an embarassing demonstration of the “Trump First Doctrine”.

“Mr. Trump marched through Europe with more swagger than strategy,” the Board wrote. “His diplomacy is personal, rooted in instinct and impulse, and he treats other leaders above all on how much they praise Donald J. Trump. He says what pops into his head to shock but then disavows it if there’s a backlash. He criticizes institutions and policies to grab headlines but then claims victory no matter the outcome.”
