lamarcus aldridge says players are turning on popovich due to forcing his politics on them

[playblair]

popovich facing the repercussions of forcing his lefty politics on his players.......players r getting red pilled & finding out democrats r :nope............


"I ain't going to speak for nobody but he didn't want to do all the other (expletive) that Pop did too. Like the learning. He just wants to hoop. Everybody don't want to learn what's in Africa. Learn the maps and he just wanted to hoop. I ain't saying that's right or wrong but he just didn't want to do that."

Does not surprise me at all. Kawhi ain’t havin none of that drunk POS BS.

I think Luka was not having any of that BS either though not a big deal I guess.

Kawhi doesn’t care about anything. He didn’t even know who DAVID ROBINSON fucking was. Solipsism defined.

Luka was just a lazy ass.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

i feel sorry for OP

maybe next time. keep trying pal

[Spurs Homer]

Of course kawhitter is a retard- not even pop could instill some knowledge on that scumbag

[John B]

LaMarsha not getting a job with the Spurs

[gambit1990]

can't blame la for saying that.

can't blame players for not wanting to take more college classes when all they just wanna do is ball.

totally disagree with OP's premise / framing though.

[SouthernFryd]

Ayup. I knew that's why Kawhi left at the time. Aldridge speaking truth.

Pop is like most lefties, they can't shut their mouths...and then get upset when people don't wanna hear them. It's the Hollywood syndrome. In Texas, it's called the Dixie Chicks Effect.

Pop is creating a barrier between the Spurs and Spurs fans. Totally unnecessary...but, like most lefties, can't help himself. Unfortunately, the NBA is full of Pop's these days. Shame.

Republicans are hands down infinitely more crooked than Democrats. Under the fucking guise of their religion to boot. 99% of Republicans ain't worth a fucking shit.

[RC_Drunkford]

Trash person. Wish Bowen had told him to FO on wanting #12.

lol Aldridge didn't say anything wrong here, nor did he spill the tea. What an idiotic take

[Barfunk]

I'll say things about Pop because of his hard/boneheaded and stubborn coaching decisions, as well as his tendency to be a super control freak, basketball-wise, not because he ain't down with Republicans' racist, gun toting, and extreme religious BS.

[CorrectCrusader]

Oh and let me guess, Republicans are sooooo much better.

The only thing worse than a democrat is a republican.

[scott]

Misleading thread title, LMA didn't say anything of the sort... of course posters are going to believe dumbass OP instead of watching a 2 minute video

[scott]

SJax also didn't take any shots at the Spurs here. Just says that Pop and the organization will put you to the test to make you a better person/player, and Kawhi couldn't take it.

[Barfunk]

The only thing worse than a democrat is a republican.

Democrat <<<<<<<<<<<<< of the two evils. And I always gotta laugh when Republicans are like, "SHOW US THE EPSTEIN LIST!!!!" And I just think to myself, "You morons really think there were only Democrats taking those trips" Dumbasses, per the usual.

[MarCowMar]

Republicans used to have workplace takeover syndrome and were rightfully ridiculed for it. If you want to see relive a small example of it check out this Nunslaughter video from 2011.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_T2DNUgB_0

In 2016, Trump ushered in the age of post-party politics, where the highest form of identity is now MAGA rather than race, gender, sexual orientation, or political affiliation. Republicans, independents and intelligent Democrats embraced this and united against the cabal.

The small remaining cluster of Democrat-identified can't see this and remain on a steady descent into madness as reality is in increasing conflict with their programmed expectations.

As one of these Democrats, Pop is oblivious to how many professional norms he's violating by failing to perform the job he was gifted over better-qualified minorities.

"Everybody don't wanna learn about Africa...or learn the maps..."

Yup. Companies are trying to float the DEI & ESG crap to divide the workforce but no one outside of HR wants anything to do with it.

This is one of the most clear examples of projection on a forum where 75% of the posts are as such.

Kawhi left to go to LA. Nothing that happened in SA or Toronto could have changed that. He still had confetti from Toronto’s championship parade in his cornrows when he signed on the dotted line with the Clippers.

All of this spun from the Kawhi trade:

Keldon
Malaki
Toronto 1-6 3 year FRP
Chicago 1-10 FRP

Not too shabby for a guy who was hell bent on getting home to SoCal.

[K...]

So a notably selfish player ridiculed as my touches, Disliked team building excerises that were created in the wake of a star leaving the team in a messy way. Yawn

[DJR210]

:lmao at Jackson trying to make shit about him and put him and Kawhi on the same level

[itzsoweezee]

That’s not what LMA said, and it’s not why load management left. Stop making it more complicated than it was. The guy wanted to play in LA.

Reminder, site owner said from what he knew but was and apparently still is not at liberty to divulge.....
50/50 on which side was responsible for the break up.

Now as to Kawhi's publicly stating "LA only", that was and is and will always be total chickenshit.
I won't assume the entire divorce was a ruse to get to LA.

As to the video, Jackson is a known clown and Spurs hater so i take him with a grain of salt. He may be true that technically Parker should not have called Kahwi a pussy in the media. But by that time it was like FFS either play or don't play but enough with the delays.

When he was going to Dodger games with Magic everyone should have realized what was up.

And yeah, the Spurs could just as easily have ended up in a situation where they couldn't get anything for him because everyone knew he wanted to go to LA. Getting a lot of assets for a rental is pretty good. Hope those two draft picks become good players.

[MultiTroll]

He may have left in better circumstances, like galaxies better if the 50/50 had not occured.

Kawhi being a dumb uneducated moron like the OP isn't exactly ground breaking news.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

that explains why pop refused to play david robinson

[rjv]

another ST political post disguised as a sports take-sponsored by the usual suspects.

[John B]

SJax is butthurt and trying to recruit ex-Spurs on his side. LaMarcia was a willing bitch trying to be cool agreeing with the peer pressure. I don’t always agree with Pop’s way but I do get what he wants his players to be. Building strong character for these young men, yes young especially now, players get in the NBA 18-19 years old and becoming instant millionaires. A lot of NBA players don’t last after their 1st contracts, but seemingly Spurs have more players staying in the league. I’m sure it’s not a big coincidence.

[TimmyBuckets]

Jack is an idiot. Nephew wanted to hoop? Nope. The team wanted to hoop hence why they had a players meeting. Spurs didn’t defend nephew? Wrong again. They defended him all year despite nephew’s team ragging on the organization that basically created him. ST hypocrisy knows no bounds. They went from hating on nephew and LMA to sucking their nuts. No surprise there.

[KobesAchilles]

I’m proud of Tony for what he said tbh. Kawhi kept publicly saying I’m coming back and then just never did.
the Spurs didn’t say the timeline, Kawhi's camp did. Over and over. TP just said the truth and the media just ran with it. Dude never had surgery, still refuses to play hurt, and in the end has a degenerative knee issue just like the Spurs said he did. Kawhi just had no heart that season

[paperboy77]

[Frenchfred]

This is such a typical lefty response. Just have to get vulgar and bring in religion.

Because Republicans are always about me, me, me. They know that selfishness is not right so they pretend to be religious to give themselves good conscience but they just don't care about anybody else. Their hypocrisy is just astonishing and they surely have never read the bible or they would stop thinking that money is the most important thing in the world. Pop is wasting his time, if somebody wants to be a prick there is nothing you can do about it.

[freetiago]

Spurscuck and Redditards always frothing at the mouth when they found out someone doesn’t agree with their fake moral posturing. They’re paid to play basketball not be political activists. That’s why one of my all time favorite moments is crater face telling the fans to stop booing and them booing him even louder. Clowns like him and you get reality checked

[Joseph Kony]

Glad that LMA didn't get goaded into saying anything negative and didn't comment when Jack brought TP up (again).

:lmao at Pop trying to teach black players about Africa

astounding how full of himself and out of touch Jack still is though, to act like he was on the same level as Kawhi with the Spurs or that their situations were even remotely similar :lol also did Tony fuck his girl too or what? dude uses any chance he can to talk about TP who probably forgets Jack even exists

[RC_Drunkford]

In every interview he does LMA gives the Spurs props and never says anything negative. Yet spurstalkers want to spin things since it fits their narrative

And yes, it's obvious that you don't pay attention because the majority of people on social media that "DEMAND WE SEE THOSE LISTS!!!" are indeed Republican.

[heyheymymy]

Aww man nephew just wanted to hoop but he couldn't cause Pop was such a lib so nephew had to not hoop and hide from the team court and ball for a whole season and sit on his dumb lazy liar ass instead?

This actually explains so much about loser LaMarcus. Can't look at maps like the stupid shit he is and maybe that same attitude is why he is RINGLESS. LMA was RJ part II.

Lol at conservatives. Gonna hand the USA over to remnants of the literal Soviet Union like a bunch of commie cowards cause Pop said guns don't belong in classrooms killing our children? What's so bad about what Pop says? Basketball without borders what's wrong with doing that? Can't respect a US military veteran when you want Russranian rapist invaders to beat NATO. Careful what you wish for.

Makes me think the Pop criticisms are just some hillbilly trash Trumpturds crying.

Democrats are just too weak/shy when they are in power but it is pretty clear that they have a better will to help the people than the republicans.

Lesser of two evils as in there are bad things about both parties, but hands down the Republican party is worse. Socialistic policies vs. a party who wants full control over what people do, what they decide to put in their body, as well as no regard for lax gun control laws that continue to lead to children and innocent people getting massacred, as well as being racist as fuck.

Buddy that's literally not how it works. The money that the boomers put into social security was spent decades ago. Gen X, Soylennials, and Zoomers are paying for the boomers social security now. Even more expense now because of inflation.
Not to mention, "our money". It's all printed to pay for it because the government spends way more than it takes in taxes. So, not only is 20% of my income being stolen, I'm also getting invisibly taxed because the freaks in office keep looting the treasury to keep low IQ voters happy. I love democracy

The problem is, it wasn’t spent on social security, and there should be motherfuckers in jail for that. They need to eliminate the income cap that can be taxed, and make these rich motherfuckers pay on their entire income like we do. Social security would be fixed in 5 minutes with that one change.

Buddy that's literally not how it works. The money that the boomers put into social security was spent decades ago. Gen X, Soylennials, and Zoomers are paying for the boomers social security now. Even more expense now because of inflation.
Not to mention, "our money". It's all printed to pay for it because the government spends way more than it takes in taxes. So, not only is 20% of my income being stolen, I'm also getting invisibly taxed because the freaks in office keep looting the treasury to keep low IQ voters happy. I love democracy

There is one party who is remarkably worse at this than the other, which is ironic because they've hilariously tried to make being good at it their calling card.

You're honestly correct that the Left would hate Pop if he peddled the right's racist BS, guns etc. So yeah, you aren't wrong there.

[SouthernFryd]

Pop is like most lefties, they can't shut their mouths...

You don't have to go very far to affirm this. Like, literally...this thread. They're all Karens. lol

We're just passionate about anti-racism and innocent people not getting shot up, amongst other things, while Republicans are Karens BECAUSE they hate people of color, because they want absolute control, and because they couldn't care less that people keep getting shot up. Massive difference there buddy.

[scott]

I just want to point out that Karen is an inherently right-wing person. A lefty version of a Karen would be a Karin/Carin (pronounced Kuh-rihn).

The truth is likely that most players are apolitical and don’t want to be put on a mic and told to express political views that will isolate them from half the population. When you start making millions by playing a sport that has allowed you to escape poverty or even just a middle class life, you care less about political issues other than someone trying to take your money away.

If a player wants to speak out on an issue, by all rights, speak out. But Pop gives the sense of forcing people to be “educated” as to what he thinks is right and I could see players not agreeing or just not caring and then see Pop become an asshole or condescending about it.

The problem is when people throw political jabs constantly and are fucking obnoxious about it, which I'm sure pop is. Makes you have to walk on egg shells around people if you don't want to start a 3 hour argument over the dumbest shit because they just had to get their jab in.

The only reason we waste time entertaining dumb shit like anti-gay laws and trickle-down economics is because racists (white supremacists) want them and can get dumber racists (like a few on this message board) to advocate for these things incessantly in spite of history.

You're an idiot. The point is that even in commiestan california they were still anti-gay all the way until 2008. It wasn't until the supreme court decided that the country should let the degenerates run amok that public opinion changed. It had nothing to do with your "muh racist pandering" or whatever the fuck. You're just another low IQ moron who believes whatever the regime tells you to believe.

It's hilarious that in this thread I will point out problems that the republicans and democrats both partake in, and all you idiots do is "muh republicans worse"
I DON'T GIVE A SHIT. THEY'RE ALL SUBHUMAN TRASH SELLING OUR COUNTRY OUT TO THE THIRD WORLD.
I don't like Trump, I don't like Hillary. Stop with the midwit low IQ blame games and look around you for fucking once. The country is falling apart, crime is exploding, and all you retards can do is say "but republicans/democrats are worse". They're all the same! None of you deserve a voice in politics, you're all stupid.

[MarCowMar]

Trump supporters and intelligent should not be in the same sentence. Trump appeals to people who are not capable of thinking or too lazy to do the research.

https://psmag.com/news/trumps-appeal-to-the-cognitively-challenged

As far as Pop, I don't see a problem with giving his opinion on gun control or other issues like that

So for the entire scamdemic we were being told we shouldn't do our own research and the new claim is that we're too lazy to do our own research?

Very amusing, but a challenging bit of cognitive dissonance for you to process.

No one ever mentioned any issues with Pop giving his opinions on his personal time. Your statement is what is known as a strawman argument. You had no grounds to argue the original point so you created an imaginary one.

The problem w/Pop is he treats the workplace as his personal proselytization space, and that doesn't sit well with competitive players who come to work.

He's in a very well paid, taxpayer-subsidized job and is using it to further his political agenda.

I think the political arguments in this thread are exactly why Spurs players do not want Pop's or anyone's politics forced on them and probably why they don't care about politics.

No one asserted that listening to Joe Rogan wholly constituted personal research. You're making what is known as a strawman argument. Because you were unable to refute the original points, you had to create imaginary ones.

It is amusing though, that the sort of person who would assert that listening to Rogan imparts no information, also blindly accepts programming from Comedy Central, NPR, or the New York Times for their worldview.

How do you figure that when a public figure speaks through a Joe Rogan interview that information is lost? What is different about a Rogan interview than an interview done by Jake Tapper, Rachel Maddow, Becky Quick, or Tonya Mosley? They ask questions, the interviewee answers. From what I can tell, information is imparted in all cases. It's up to the listener to decide what parts of a given interview matter for their research.

[MarCowMar]

It's not. OP made it up :lol

It's at the 1:50 mark, though the setup for what Aldridge says is nice to have.


It is what it is man. I ain't gonna speak for nobody but bro, I think he didn't want to like do all like the other shit that Pop did too. Like the learning shit. You know, he just want to hoop. Everybody don't want to learn about what's in Africa, or learn the maps. Which I ain't saying is right or wrong, he just didn't want to do that.

So here we have Pop with a losing team, more focused on teaching successful black millionaires about Africa and engendering victimhood in them than doing his job.

Pop is bringing ESG and DEI to the Spurs and the players are clearly post-political (MAGA) and it frustrates Pop and Democrats who wants the black populace locked into a state of permanent racial trauma--even when the circumstances of their life are in polar opposition to all that. This is why you see ridiculous political attacks against highly respected black conservatives like Clarence Thomas and Thomas Sowell. Pop works to create a workplace environment hostile to conservatism and the players know it.

The only person holding back blacks on the Spurs is Pop & the Democrats, because they need to create racial trauma where none in exists, in order for the Democratic Party to survive.

Their party vanishes when the racial strawman is acknowledged.

it was hyperbolic, not a strawman

Scam as in the event was entirely used to institute authority measures that we'd never accept if we weren't in a state of fear. Vaccine mandates, mask mandates, closing of churches and schools, closing of businesses, travel restrictions, shutdown of all non-BLM protests, etc.

And yes, a solid chunk of the footage utilized to scare the public we see now was fake or mischaracterized.

Trump gave people capable of processing higher-order (inferred) information enough info to work through it, which kept the country functioning. Conservative regions ignored COVID entirely and prosp were able to live normally and liberal cities had to suffer under their NPR-induced, collective derangement.

To this day, many Democrats remain fully masked and five-fold boosted in their homes, praying at the alter of COVID and sicker than ever.

If you're having trouble processing that it was a scam, consider asking why, with COVID #'s just as high now as they were during the thick of it, are the same policies not being instituted?

Maybe you are projecting something there fren?

Does the fact that you rely on authorities to do research on your behalf mean that people who happen to listen to Rogan are relying on him as a subject matter authority?

Isn't it possible for a person to listen to something and not wholly trust it? Or to listen to it in addition to consulting published papers and other sources?

Most importantly: is it possible that your insinuation that people who listen to Rogan aren't capable of research a narrative that has been programmed into you by the media you consume?

Are you acting with agency or are you carrying out a programmed response? Self awareness here is critical.

[Biggems]

Pop has every right to his political beliefs and to spew them out loud, just as the players do. I am not a fan of his political beliefs and opinions. It annoys me that he spews his political issues during basketball events. I would rather he focus on the basketball stuff before, during, and after games. Of course, the media takes some of the blame as they ask the questions.

Not just Pop, but a lot of the sports personalities have caused a lot of fans to grow tired of the political banter and simply stop watching altogether. The same can be said for various boycotts of actors and musicians. Fans want to escape the daily nonsense when they watch sports, movies, TV, and listen to music. They paid to be entertained, not to be lectured to about liberal or conservative drivel.

I am not sure if Pop's behavior drove away Kawhi and other players, but it sounds as though LMA was definitely not a fan.

All that happened under your orange president and deity. Trump said bleach in the veins would be good. He was talking over the experts and made a bad situation much worse by sewing mistrust in the same authorities that are there to protect us.

As far as saying the numbers are "just as high", you don't know how a pandemic works if you think a flat line is bad.

Democrats are just too weak/shy when they are in power but it is pretty clear that they have a better will to help the people than the republicans. Republicans would probably remove social security, medicare/medicaid, minimum wage, extend the number of hours per week to 60...if they could, all in the name of the economy aka helping the rich.

no they dont dude. They SAY that shit, but they pass the same legislation as republicans on anything that matters. The DNC is more responsible for halting progressive improvement than republicans in many ways. Should be obvious with the way Biden has handled the border and gaza and the railroad unions that he's just as much of a piece of shit as trump. pelosi, clintons, obamas... they're just faking that "weak" con so that the needle moves more towards fascism every year. Look back to how the dnc halted the rainbow coalition with jesse jackson.

Surgeons who bring in the money for the hospital eventually got the better of our GM and CEO etc and starting doing surgeries again.

like I said, it is a lot of the mediots fault. They bait the interviewee by asking the questions and hoping to get quality news worthy responses. Pop, who is usually gruff with the media and says very little, somehow turns into this open flower of verbiage when it comes to political discourse.

of course, a lot of them will comment. though, many shouldn't actually do so, as their comments can be held against them in the court of public opinion and really harm their careers, due to the rampant epidemic known as cancel culture.

No offense, but anyone that picks Trump or Biden could easily fall into your "just plain stupid" analysis. Neither of these two guys should be on the ballot next year, but the odds are both will be. That's where we are in America.

In context, years ago, Trump as president would be like saying that Elon Musk will be president one day (ignoring citizenship requirements) and Joe Biden was a laughing stock of a candidate when he ran IN HIS PRIME over the last 20+ years. The fact that these two are on the ballot tells intelligent people to run from politics because you are going to be forced to vote for hot mess candidate one or hot mess candidate two. I believe that anyone of average intelligence or better would not pick sides in this election because no matter which side the person takes, they are making a poor choice.

You only get 2 choices. If you didn't vote for Biden you basically voted for Trump. Else you abstain and you remove your voice from the chorus. The song will still be sung. If you voted for Trump we already know you're either not intelligent (the best option) or you're intelligent but just an incredibly greedy bigoted asshole (worst option).

[tmtcsc]

Ayup. I knew that's why Kawhi left at the time. Aldridge speaking truth.

Pop is like most lefties, they can't shut their mouths...and then get upset when people don't wanna hear them. It's the Hollywood syndrome. In Texas, it's called the Dixie Chicks Effect.

Pop is creating a barrier between the Spurs and Spurs fans. Totally unnecessary...but, like most lefties, can't help himself. Unfortunately, the NBA is full of Pop's these days. Shame.

You really knew or just had a feeling? That's a terrible indictment on Greg if true. Grooming his players to his ideology and treating them like children who need to be educated is whack. All that stuff should have been optional. Who the hell does he think he is? Talk about needing to get over oneself. Asshole.

[Tyronn Lue]

pretty sure Kawhi left because he wanted to live in LA and didn't agree with how the Spurs kept releasing him to play even though he was still in pain. Pop's "me Gandalf, you Frodo" act might have been part of it, but I recall the basic issue was how he was being medically managed, which is why he went to a specialist in NY vs his own team's docs.

[MackAttack003]

.

[John B]

SJaxx is trolling whenever they have an ex-Spur. And LaMarsha is trying to be cool succumbing to peer pressure.

Kawhi left because he always wanted to go home to LA. His camp made the medical issue his ticket way out. He could’ve easily stayed with TOR and a legit contender every year. It’s not about winning for that bitch. He’s a soft bitch who can’t play through pain, like Kobe, Isiah limping in the finals, MJ with the flu, etc. Kawhi could play more games if he cared about winning. No respect for that ungrateful bitch. But in retrospect, Spurs dodged a bullet. Kawhi would’ve the Spurs in limbo had he stayed. The issue for me is he could’ve been grateful and worked with the Spurs and could’ve gotten us a better haul to rebuild on, but instead dissed Spurs medical staff and good name.

SJaxx never forgiven Pop for making him bow to Ginobili. He’s a selfish whore who was not a team first. Not everybody would do it, but TP, Manu deferred to Kawhi when Pop saw Kawhi needed the push to shine. HOFers who saw it was time to step back. Who was SJaxx??

LaMarsha is a soft bitch. He couldn’t make with the Trailblazers, so he decided to ride the coattail of the Big 3 and a budding Kawhi. But when Kawhi went down, he couldn’t carry the Spurs and wanted way out. Pop just jokingly said he would’ve driven him to the airport if he could get a fair trade off him. But the truth is LaMarsha doesn’t have the dog in him to carry the team beyond 1st round. He’s soft and it showed succumbing to peer pressure in that podcast.

Bullshit thread. Just :stirpot: . It's pretty transparent who the people who hate Pop for speaking out about Trump are, and who gives a fuck what they think.

Now being upset with his coaching and hating him for his views are not always mutually exclusive, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to suss who is who.

[Mugen]

I'm sure the 20yos on the team are going to love hearing about George Washington and shit from the oldest coach in the league. That should really motivate them to get some Ws :lol

I agreed with everything you wrote except the line above.

Sjaxx was CUT because he fucked Tim's soon to be ex-wife. The private investigator hired to help him in his divorce proceedings (confirming she was cheating on him w/ her trainer) provided the information or evidence. That's another reason the Finals' loss to the Heat was so tough for Tim that year. The Spurs could have used Jackson even though he wasn't the player he once was. He clashed with Greg because he was a malcontent (like he always had been) and a hood rat, not because he wouldn't admit Ginobili was the better player. That wasn't even a question. Hell, he only played 9 more games the rest of his career.

I honestly don't think the team ever told Jackson what they had on him & that's the way Tim wanted it. This information came from a former, prominent assistant coach who is no longer with the team & couldn't keep his mouth shut when he drank. He left the Spurs not too long after.

Teammates being unable to stop themselves from fucking teammates wives is unreal. Should go to prison for that kind of shit.

I was saying lazy to be polite, I personally think that the vast majority of maga are just plain stupid. I had enough discussions/interviews to see how uneducated they are, I have no problem with regular republicans.

So you never talk politics at your job or other issues in the world?

The races that have the lowest IQ in America are black and hispanic,,,,and which party do they vote for?,,,,its funny that democrats are brainwashed to believe the maga's are the uneducated when whites make up over 50% of the highest IQ's in America which equates to the top race in America in education and the majority of whites vote republican.

Why are you bringing the race in this discussion? But thanks for demonstrating what I was saying about Maga, are you intentionally showing how dumb you are? Plus let's add a little bit of racism, perfect cliche.

[offset formation]

Of course leave it to OP to greatly mischaracterize what LMA thinks about what transpired between Pop & neph because Pop's politics disagree with yours and that makes you butthurt.

1. He did not say "players." He said neph.
2. And he says it's because he didn't want any politics, not just Pops. He just wanted play basketball without outside distraction.

Do you have any dignity? Any desire whatsoever to be taken seriously? Honest questions?

Because if you did, you wouldn't have shit the bed to start a thread that is not grounded in reality. Really pathetic. You know I come from a leftward political basis and I want him to retire. You can have consistency about yourself. It's allowed. I pity you on a fundamental level because you're so wound up by politics, you're already blind. GFY while you're at it.

[baseline bum]

No offense, but anyone that picks Trump or Biden could easily fall into your "just plain stupid" analysis. Neither of these two guys should be on the ballot next year, but the odds are both will be. That's where we are in America.

In context, years ago, Trump as president would be like saying that Elon Musk will be president one day (ignoring citizenship requirements) and Joe Biden was a laughing stock of a candidate when he ran IN HIS PRIME over the last 20+ years. The fact that these two are on the ballot tells intelligent people to run from politics because you are going to be forced to vote for hot mess candidate one or hot mess candidate two. I believe that anyone of average intelligence or better would not pick sides in this election because no matter which side the person takes, they are making a poor choice.

Two shitty right wing candidates but if the choice is another Clinton vs another Hitler I'll take the former. Not that it matters, Hitler's gonna win because of the crushing inflation that has been happening while Senile Clinton is in office.

The Biden administration will assassinate Trump before they allow him to win another term.

Biden can't even wipe his own ass and you think he's capable of this? He couldn't even get DC or PR as states despite how huge it would be for his party in future senate elections.

That would require having both houses of congress. He only ever had one at a time.

it never fails. these threads turn into that holiday get together where there's always that one dipshit relative who feels obligated to tell everyone his/her political views even though no one gives a crap.

Before LBJ the race with the greatest percentage rate of getting a degree when going to college was black.

The moron's grammar, at least, pointed towards HA being a backwards, semi-literate hick. I guess he decided to out himself as far as the racist part goes.

That would be awesome. Like a political forum. I'd dig that. Maybe an arcade too.

Democrat <<<<<<<<<<<<< of the two evils. And I always gotta laugh when Republicans are like, "SHOW US THE EPSTEIN LIST!!!!" And I just think to myself, "You morons really think there were only Democrats taking those trips" Dumbasses, per the usual.
they're all bad. Republicans are racist pieces of shit that let you know it. Demonkkrats are racist pieces of shit that hide behind silly black folks.

[koriwhat]

Republicans are hands down infinitely more crooked than Democrats. Under the fucking guise of their religion to boot. 99% of Republicans ain't worth a fucking shit.

I remember Pop made us watch a penguin National Geographic movie," DeRozan told ESPN's Jamal Collier. "It was very interesting. It was basically learning about teamwork. How to come together as one and go after a common goal, whatever that goal was. I thought it was going to be a day where we watch film. But we watched a full penguin movie -- and it was the most interesting shit
