I don't get the former but for the latter Trump is exactly what the right wing media has been grooming their audience to want for the last 30 years.

Multiple teams including: The San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks, New Orleans Pelicans, Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets, Portland Trail Blazers, and Miami Heat have all shown interest in forward Kai Jones, sources tell
@OOSSports
Kai Jones? Seriously? I don't believe that
Nothing like breaking both legs to help a player get over himself.
Doubtful that there is much real interest on the Spurs part. Dallas has the inside track here. Would give them quite a lineup of bigs with AD, Gafford, & Lively.
The guy who has tried to injure Wemby?
Really? Come on guys. Even just subtracting Trump from the equation for a minute, look at the reality of the alternative.
A party that calls themselves ’Democratic’, launders an unpopular DEI candidate through to the party’s top position without any formal selective process amongst the base, then kicks the President out for reelection due to cognitive failings, (which they denied for years mind you), all the while still pushing some of the most radical, divisive iden y politics on a majority of the populous we’ve all seen, who honestly really didn’t care what/who/how said people identify. That is, as long as it isn’t shoved down their throats and they are not demonised/policed/cancelled as a result of their own beliefs/values/flaws…
Batya Ungar-Sargon wrote two key books on these issues:
‘Bad News:How woke media is undermining democracy’ and ‘Second Class:How the elites betrayed Americas Working Men and Women’
This is a seriously stupid post.
But that's the whole point, is it not? You can't hand-waive just how disastrous of a candidate Donald Trump was in the last election -- the fact that a majority of Americans could not understand the terrible danger they were putting themselves, and the world, through by voting for him, is the whole point.
And as expected by most, he has gone on to sow discord, chaos and upheaval both in his own country, and the world at large; has ed over billions in international trade middling, politic games, not to mention his support of Russia in the war with Ukraine, the Musk fiasco, taking the USA out of key international ins utions, pushing the US economy towards fossil fuel dependency............. The ICE with the normalization of hunting down legal citizens of the "freest country in the world" and throwing them in shanty prisons.........................
...Not to mention Epstein.
If you can explain how "iden y politics" or a "lack of democracy in the primary candidate selection" were a worse choice than this, you'll have won a seat in the US Congress, tbh
The moment you use "DEI" you sound like a moron.
ing cult members. You people are so ing annoying. Go the away.
Trump and his team busted into Arlington National Cemetery for a photo op -- illegal to do -- throwing grinning thumbs-up over the graves of the dead soldiers. He performed fake fellatio on a microphone at a rally. He talked at length about how big Arnold Palmer's was. He kept talking about how immigrants were sneaking into people's yards to eat their pets. He claimed that kindergartners were pooping in boxes of kitty litter. His speech was filled with garbled nonsense that they claimed was a 'weave,' where he couldn't keep on any topic whatsoever. He brought a woman who insists that 9/11 was an inside job (Laura Loomer) to the 9/11 Memorial event.But that's the whole point, is it not?

The list is endless.
The worst campaign in US history was run by this decrepit asshole moron, yet he was constantly sane-washed by the media. None of this was allowed to break through unless you paid attention. The NYT was like "Trump gives a nuanced portrayal of his foreign policy" as their headline and if you actually watched any of it, the man was completely off his rocker.
And people want to say Kamala was a 'woke' 'DEI' hire. Lol, get the out of here. The elites wanted this garbage asshole clown elected and now it's incinerating the country.
Yeah, it was and continues to be a fascinating show to watch (thankfully) from afar.
During the elections run-up, I was under the naive impression that Americans, having already gone through a Trump presidency and the complete fiasco of his COVID handling, which seemed to single-handedly lose him the re-election, simply could not be stupid enough to vote him in once again. The felony convictions, the pornstar scandal..... It just seemed impossibly "anti-presidential".
Lo and behold, America. The world bears witness.
On a related side-note; I have a personal friend who's a US citizen and has lived there for almost 10 years, and was interested on his take since he could actually vote in the upcoming election.
He was completely unaware that Trump had bankrupted any businesses at all, let alone 6 casinos, and fully under the impression that the US needed a "strong and business-oriented leader" to "right the ship", and a woman like Kamala could not get it done (which is doubly funny since we're both from a country that has elected and re-elected a woman as President).
Fast-forward to this week -- he announces out of the blue that he's getting married. The first reason he lists? Getting papers for his girlfriend. Talked about doing a quick wedding, but still taking photos - as "evidence" - was shocking to hear. Talking about speeding up the process as much as possible...
I don't know if Americans realize just how much their country has been changed - the former "land of the free".
Feel it more on the state level tbh. Texas has become a show under Abbott. There’s a couple of frustrating things I have when it comes to politics. The first is when a person claims to be either a Republican or a Democrat. I immediately check out from them and their stances bc unless they are literally serving in the party they are neither. Now they may be a fan of views of one party but they aren’t ing a republican or a democrat. It’s like me saying I’m a member of the San Antonio Spurs bc I’m a fan of them. I have season tickets to the games even, so how am I not a member of the Spurs? The exact same thing with politics. Unless you’re an actual elected official (or running) then gtfoh with this I’m a Republican or a Democrat.
I also hate the whole well all politicians are guilty . It makes zero sense. It’s literally the response to every bad thing a party member has done. Take a guy like Ken Paxton. Dude was literally found guilty of fraud by his own peers. Has many other lawsuits against him for corruption, had to pay res ution for what he did and do community service all as part of plea deal. And instead of outing him out of office, the response it well Democrats are guilty of this too. In the old days if you were dirty and got busted you were kicked to the curb. Even if others were doing it, you knew the risks and took them anyway and if you got caught then you were cut. Now it’s like we get all the information, prosecute it, and then when it comes time to cut bait we just let the whole thing slide under the guise of “well the other party is guilty too.” It doesn’t make sense bc it’s not like by kicking out Paxton we are replacing him with a Democrat. You’re replacing him with another ing Republican. So why even bring up democrats? Just kick him out.
As a Texan I am beyond embarrassed that we will have Paxton as our next senator. Im embarrassed that we have Cruz as a Senator. The dude literally ran away from Texas during the power outage crisis that we faced where people froze to death and millions were without power. That’s who we are voting to represent us. Even if you align yourself with Republican views, fine but just get another republican. Sorry but when you run away from a crisis that involves the entire state where millions of people need help then I don’t think you deserve to represent us anymore. But apparently I’m in the minority.
I’m even more embarrassed that Abbott is our governor. This dude just lets us be butchered like cattle and gives zero s. His handling of Uvalde made me just shake with anger. It was just so callous. And his handling of the flood victims was just somehow even more idgaf about any of the victims. He literally compared the death of over 300 people, young children to the game of football. That’s just a level of not having a soul that I’ve never seen before from another human being never mind one who is supposed to represent us. And instead of having any actual morals or dignity or compassion we just keep voting for this guy bc people are “republicans.”
lol
Rent free
1) Cruz actually WROTE most of the bill to make sure texans did not have advanced warnings of catastrophies like the kerrville floods…and of course voted to defund NOAA, and the NWS…
then took a vacay to Greece and rushed back to lecture people about the “lost children” in the floods..
AND - sucking cultist texans will RE-ELECT cruz again (and yes- elect PAXTON also)
2) the GOP just took away healthcare for 17 million americans including republicans who voted for them- and DOUBLED the price of premiums for millions more enrolled in the healthcare exchange….while they lie to the faces of their victims, Fox propaganda will not even report this FACT…
and- piece of GOP cultists will vote RED in 2026 because the GOP was sneaky enough to make sure these healthcare cuts will not begin until AFTER the 2026 election…
this country has zero chance to ever thrive again when GOP voters are like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders over and over and over…

The Washington Wizards have waived Blake Wesley, league sources told Hoopshype
. Wesley, the 25th pick of the 2022 NBA Draft, was acquired from the San Antonio Spurs in the Kelly Olynyk trade.
Imagine keeping Branham over Wesley.
Once again DEI is only used as a full-in for the n word
Wesley
Damn, good addition for the Lakers. Maybe they make the second round with Smart.
Why would they cut Wesley, he was probably their best player on the roster...
Can we get Wesley back?
