  3. it's been a real whirl listening to this thing... haha. "Judging by his eyes, I'd say he was of Asian descent" was a real highlight. At that point, I would have just said "NEXT!"

    It really is hard to stop watching even though I go from laughing to being terrified at the same time.

    This lady epitomizes a lot of this, its old and white people from the suburbs of Detroit who went to the city and got a dose city like attitude. That is where this Midwest Nice bullshit goes out the window.

    That was wild, I audibly gasped. These are all the annoying old, white suburb woman that I despise. Love to get all into everybody's business. Went to the city where that Midwest Nice bullshit doesn't fly and they are so offended by it.

    Really hope Trump pushes the "Kemp can just deal with the fraud and no one has to worry about the run-off elections because we already won" angle

    If only . . .

    Joe Biden should do everything at once


    "[T]he most pointed lesson about how to behave in a hopelessly partisan environment comes from Donald Trump himself . . . blitz. Do everything at once.

    "No matter what the Biden administration does, it will be accused of socialism and corruption by the right.

    "The only thing Biden will have real control over is his administration and what it does. And his North Star, his organizing principle, should be doing as much good on as many fronts as fast as possible. Blitz.

    "Trump charged right through [the media, political classes, moral outrage, precedent and tradition, and civil protest] like they were cotton candy. By constantly acting, being on the offensive, generating new stories and controversies, he simply overwhelmed the ability of the system to fasten on any one thing.

    "Biden should learn the lesson. All that matters is what gets done, put on paper and into law. The rest is vapor."

    I'm worried its going to be more like "Trump pushes Kemp to make sweeping changes prior to runoffs that makes it harder for people to vote"

    Posted this on facebook and a "libertarian" (and likely Trump-voting) former co-worker replied that Biden should seek to be a unifier and not further divide the country.

    My reply: "That's like telling me I should ask you if I can spray your house with water before putting out the fire burning it to the ground." Fuck outta here!

    Does anyone know if that pathetic looking bipartisan stimulus bill (without the stimulus) contains an extended and expanded eviction moratorium? I tried to find out but couldn’t find anything. Because things are bad and getting worse and on Jan 1 it’s going to be a disaster. people are dying for not being able to pay rent and they’re spreading this disease to people kind enough to take them in and to shelters. Our Congress should be on trial for this shit.

    I mean, really. His whole schtick so far is that now that the Republicans uave repudiated Trump (which they haven't) we have to be nice and respectful to them and not do anything divisive like giving people free health care, cancelling student debt, or anything else that would make people's lives better
