Harris vs. Trump 2024

So all the whining, pre emptive claims of "cheating" and ridiculous stunts like this...

Does that sound like a campaign that believes it is "winning"? This action exemplifies the desperate nature of resorting to a Hail Mary. It's a perfect combination of both whining and claiming pre-emptively that he was "cheated"... Anyone else would be embarrased to try and pull such a ridiculous stunt...

ETA-Aloha beat me to the punch. But I'll go ahead and leave my post intact because I think the Meidas Touch video contains context that the Axios story doesn't. Like why Trump chose that particular district and judge for his ridiculous lawsuit...

Any serious, reliable and objective news organization would be embarrassed to have done this in the first place.

Trump's first EO...

We had a lot of kids in our neighborhood. My disappointment was the number of houses participating. Maybe 1/3 were handing out candy. It seems many quit during COVID and never went back.

But the correct answer is to eliminate DST. It is a stupid law built upon a faulty premise; that it saves energy. We can go to year round standard time, year round DST, it doesn't matter. Just stop messing with the time.
Agree. A lot of the older folks I work with said they were turning off their lights or going out for the night to avoid it. Others with young kids said they were both walking with them so would not be handing out candy.

When are kids were young one of us always stayed home to hang out candy.

We got a contender

Really? Where the hell have you been somewhere without cable or internet? Last 20 years 7 Sweet 16's or better(2) , 5 B10 championships and 2 B10 tournament championships. IU 3 Sweet 16's(0 Elite 8), 2 B10 championships and 0 tournament championships. Pre Edey is such BS. You are the guy why Purdue people come here and just tee it up and smack. The total delusional guy who secretly outside this cesspool is marred in apathy about "their" school the last two decades. Got news from you bruh, not going to change with Edey being gone this year. Purdue will finish ahead of IU this year and the pundits all predict. Of course the "expert" opinions here think exact opposite lol

The IU fanbase such as yourself draw so many parallels to Nebraska football fans stuck in the 80's and 90's . But hey the championships you share memories with fans of Cinncinnati Bearcats and University of San Francisco Don's are always there. So transparent. If you were a Florida Marlins baseball fan would be happy won two WS and equal of a successful franchise to the LA Dodgers.

Too funny, bravo keep it up great reading!
The problem for PU fans is you guys do have decent success... at things no one remembers or cares about. Sadly, with the unbalanced schedule and addition of the conference tournaments, that now includes winning the B10 regular season. You'll be remembered far longer for what you almost accomplished last year (NC final appearance) than any of the other "accomplishments" you mentioned. You know what it makes you when you are one of the most successful programs at feats that are irrelevant?

Trump's first EO...

Looking back to Halloween, as a kid, the fun part was putting together a costumes as a family project. To my pleasure residents would often make a comment on my costume.

Buying or renting a costume didn't exist. That would eliminate the fun of creating your own new identity.

Biggest disappointment last night was the lack of originality in the costumes with many not even having a costume.

As to an Executive Order on Halloween, should be on a weekend. Working parents coming home at dinner time and taking the kids out to beg for candy (which they shouldn't eat in the first place) doesn't sound like a wholesome fun time for a family to me.

Something in your post made me think about Des Moines. They don't trick or treat on Halloween but the night before except this year when storm warnings moved it back a day. They call the 30th "beggars night". The kids are expected to go around and recite a couple of lines of verse, sing, or tell jokes, in return they get candy. This started in the 30s after Halloween vandalism became too much for the town.

Trump's first EO...

Move DST back to October week before Halloween.

Whole generation of soft kids that only trick or treat in the daylight.

8pm, just got dark, and it's basically dead. 😄

Rhule vs Cignetti

Here is what We need to look at. Cignetti came into a situation where the Coaching change led to a lot of Player turnover. He had to work quickly and fortunately had connections through James Madison and the Sunbelt Conference to find experienced Players Who had histories of being productive and could play in the Big 10. Long term that may not work Year to Year. But now He has the best of both Worlds. With a Year under his belt, He and his staff should now have connections to high school programs and with the success the program has had, there has to be wide spread interest in that recruiting pool. And now He has proven He can bring in transfers from various programs, get Them to buy into His system and play effectively. So there should be interest there also.
I would expect fewer transfers and more high School recruits going forward, so He can have more consistency with Players Who may stay in his System for 4 or 5 years.
Yep. Sure there are risks next year, maybe our QB isn't as good or something else changes. Nebraska could get better over time I don't know.

But the article tries to say recruiting this year (coming off a good maybe very good season) will be tougher than it was last year (when he inherited a team in November that won nine total games the last three years). Why would recruiting be harder now?

Women dominate early voting

The pundits are wrong. This is good news for Trump. These women are voting Daddy Trump, protector of women.


LOL, two garbage sources. Seems like you're worried.

Rhule vs Cignetti

I've never read a softer statement than this. Hopefully, no explanation needed:

"Nebraska was expected to be ruined at Ohio State last Saturday. Instead, the Big Red rose to the occasion and lost a game (21-17) that they arguably should have won."

The next president inherits a remarkable economy

Friedman is absolutely correct. So, how did we get here? Because a rising tide didn't lift all boats. People don't understand the relativity of money. MAGA got a tax cut and fell behind. Therefore(they think), the problem must be that the Chinese and Mexicans stole their high paying jobs. Or that the government gives too much to the poor.

The real problem is when MAGA got their $1k tax cut, other people got $20k tax cuts, $50k tax cuts, and $1M tax cuts. Year after year. Money is relative and when you realize what that means, you also realize there's no panacea. Your wealth/well-being is relative to the wealth/well-being of everyone around you.

Look at what happened with the stimulus. Everyone got an equal amount and in the long run no one was better off. Imagine if you didn't receive the stimulus. Were you better off? But now imagine if your stimulus was $1M, and everyone else's stayed the same.

The tax code controls the balance between classes. The progressiveness of the code is much more important than the rate.

With Trump, MAGA will get the tariffs and another tax cut. And while we relive the mistakes of the past, there will still not be a strong middle class.

I ask any of the MAGA people on this board, if you want to make America great again, why hasn't anyone suggested using the tax code from the period when it was great?
Stimulus didn’t go to everyone. It was cut out at a certain income level. I didn’t get it and that’s OK.

Puerto Rico Lovin Trump

Not sure if Biden's comments on busing blunt Trump's racist attacks on the Central Park 5, even after they were exonnerated...And the difference between Robert Byrd and other former Klan political figures, is that Byrd apologized and repudiated his racist past. While other former Dems just became Pubs and maintained the same racist orientation, see Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond etc...

The fact that you don't know about Byrds public apology and repudiation of his racist pasts indicates you are an ignorant (not stupid) Trump voter. Are you aware that Obama gave a eulogy at Byrds funeral, as did Reverand Al. And also the NAACP considered the new Byrd an ally in the fight vs discrimination? From the statement the NAACP released following Byrd's death...

NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous said, "Senator Byrd reflects the transformative power of this nation."

"Senator Byrd went from being an active member of the KKK to a being a stalwart supporter of the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act and many other pieces of seminal legislation that advanced the civil rights and liberties of our country," he added"

So am I right. Were you just ignorant of the facts when you tried to point to Byrd as an example of "Biden's racism"...

Btw, Trump's issues with PR go beyond the comedians remarks. He deliberately delayed and limited assistance to PR after the Hurricane, and when he did visit embarrassed himself by shooting paper towels (like fts) into a crowd of devastated people...

Are you aware that Trump was awarded Rainbow Coalition Man of the Year. He is has received recognition from the NAACP prior to becoming a Republican. So a Democrat can go from being a racist just by apologizing. However a person who was loved by minorities to becoming a racist by becoming a Republican. Try as much as you like the Democrat party was the party that supported slavery.

Also just because Trump like many other people was wrong by believing what he thought were facts that turned out to wrong make you racist. Just because the victims were black. As for the PR issue, there was a immediate response that was held up by local government. Which by the way was extremely corrupt and inept. The goods were on location. Yes tossing toilet paper into the crowd while insensitive it is not racist. The fact is he did show up in PR.
