    What a stupid thing to say. I'm pretty sure Obama has seen an athlete complain to a referee about a bad call before the game was over...
     


  2. If I'm the GOP (shudder) I run from Trump because there's a good chance you're about to lose the next (two+) generations of voters. The Democrats are basically moderate(ish) Republicans now anyway, there's room on their left IMO. In otherwords, hey, GOP :efu:
     
  3. The analogy would be saying you think the outcome of the game was "rigged" at half time; not complaining about a bad call. (And not even Draymond Green would do that.)

    The first one is a collection of over fifty organization, which is "official" to the extent that it encompasses a wider swath of the movement. The "Campaign Zero" platform is out of Deeray McKesson's organization, as I understand it. Both are good. The first one has a more expansive platform that links up with a number of local and global issues that affects women, lgbtaqia, sex workers, etc.

  6. Gotcha. Yeah, I've been making my way through that first one. It's really good so far, from what I've read, and very detailed and specific. I really like how they've even broken it down to local/state actions and the best way to potentially impact change there. I think that's really smart. Things like DAs and local policy makers I think is very key.

    say what you will about HRC but the degree of sexism she's endured is sickening...and it's come from all walks of people, liberal and conservative.

    I don't know about Draymond but literally tens of thousands of athletes have said something along the lines of "c'mon ref you trying to give them the game?"

    That's complaining about being cheated before the game is over...

    It's not a big deal. Just sometimes I think Obama doesn't even hear the words he's saying.
     
  9. ya. obama definitely sucks at speaking. if we know one thing abt obama thats it

    Screen shot this post for when it comes true.

    Sometime before the election, Trump will have a "fallout" with the GOP strong enough for him to be "forced" to abandon his campaign. Soon after, he will start his own party, which will be used purely as a money making venture for years to come.

    Whatever forces the American system to acclimate itself to multiple parties. That's worth a ReTrumplican party.

    Say he does drop out (or at least forced out as the Republican nominee) next month. That's two months for the Republicans to scramble for a new nominee. Has anything like that happened before?

    Trump's not dropping out guys. Also anyone who is thinking he'll stay down in the polls is lulling themselves into a false sense of security.

    Can you imagine Trump trying to write something like that Glamour piece?

  24. I think he'll settle around 5-7. But he's done in the states that matter, I don't think he had a chance (if people vote).
