    Update on how things are going.  
    Things that have happened since Donald Trump won. 1. Putin said he wants to negotiate 2. HAMAS wants to end the war in GAZA 3. A caravan of migrants on their way to America turned around 4. announced a complete restructuring of 5. for Ag 6. The stock market is BOOMING 7. Trump declares war in the Deep State & Left Wing Censorship Machine 8. Announced Susie Wiles as COS
    Perfect example of believing tiktok bullshit... Hamas lol
    Really? Robert Kennedy Jr., who has no position in the government and no authority, has "announced a complete restructuring" of the FDA, an agency whose powers are prescribed by Congress? Is this like when Trump announced that Mexico was going to pay for the wall that never got built?

    If anybody can just announce stuff, I hereby announce a complete restructuring of Major League Baseball to go back to a balanced schedule and having only division winners qualify for the postseason.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    While you’re at it, get rid of the NL DH. National League ball just isn’t the same without me.

    Fresh out of the Kat and Sea dungeon…… this thread was pure gold. If anyone has any Super Bowl predictions please post as well. 

    All you had to do was follow the Real Clear Politics polls that I posted a few times a week or just simply listen to me. 

    Anyways I hope everyone gets the help they need, finds a new country or benefits from the prosperity that will be in your future here. 

    As Mick says…….”You can’t always get what you want, but if you try you’ll find, you get what you need.”


    So long friends!

    I was very much anti-DH for my entire life as a rabid baseball fan. Then they implemented the DH in the N.L. and... it was fine. It bothers me philosophically, but it has not detracted from my enjoyment of the game in any respect. We had reached a point where pitchers were virtually automatic outs. It turns out that having a competent hitter up at all times has its merits.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    Here’s a prediction from a very smart individual, and he’s not MAGA either.  The future is bright…for us all.

    Oh, please. F Bill Ackman. That sociopath went on CNBC and made sky-is-falling comments that helped tank the market in March 2020 while he was secretly shorting it. He should be in jail. Seriously, f that guy.

    Trump was president before. We've seen this movie. The economy is bigger today than it was at the end of 2019 before the pandemic (and that's giving Trump a mulligan on the pandemic that he doesn't deserve-- factor in his horrendous mismanagement of the pandemic and the contrast is even worse). The stock market was already at record highs before the election, much higher than it was during Trump's term. The economy is already growing at the fastest rate over multiple quarters in decades. "Explosive growth will make up for the impact of tariffs"-- it's just the latest iteration of voodoo economics, the same B.S. trickle-down theory (tax cuts will lead to greater tax revenue because of growth) that's been disproven since 1980. Ackman just wants deregulation and tax cuts so he can get richer.

    Guys like Ackman do not care about anything but enriching themselves. John Paulson is another, going around telling people that when Trump was president, "there were no wars." There were wars all over the world from 2017 to 2021 including the one the U.S. was waging in Afghanistan for the entire length of Trump's term. F these selfish, greedy pricks. And I say this as someone who has made a fortune in the stock market.

  • Not predictions but info on how people voted that I found interesting.

    Younger people swung way right and voted more for Trump.  Now I read that most younger voters want a more autocratic leader in office but at the same time view the environment as a number one concern.  Even though that is one of their primary concerns they still chose to vote for someone whom is going to decimate the protections that we have in place for the environment...

    And they also didn’t vote for her because she didn’t commit to stopping Israel from doing what they are doing only to give the WH to an administration that will basically give Bibbi Carte blanch on Gaza and Putin on Ukraine! Americans Muslims will be going nuts

    I live in a rural county where a very large amount of people receive government assistance. They overwhelmingly voted for Trump. It will be interesting to see how they react when those programs start to get slashed after Trump takes office.

    Yep orange man won’t be able to sit on the fence on this issue! He’s either going to try to bullshit his way through it or commit to Israel full support! So yeah I’m glad MBS bone saw is not happy with him kissing up to Bibbi

    Not to mention that many of these young voters are strongly supportive of gay rights and women's rights (as they should be), positions that are not shared by Hamas (to put it mildly).

  • People are missing the boat on how big a role misinformation and disinformation played in this election.

    People didn't vote against their own self interests for no reason.

    I haven't dug too deep but I do wonder if voter suppression played a part. I know the GOP was really trying to take away the ability to vote for a lot of people.
