I use ābuffoonā in the sense that neither of them have the chops to be POTUS.
Hard disagree on the share of voice of the loud Left. Theyāre deafening across the country and their message is amplified in all universities by those that have never done anything but amplify that signal.
This election is a clear pushback on Wokeism and identity politics. Couple that with the border nightmare they created and you have a rout.
Itās up to you if you want to help reshape the Dem party to get back to their moderate, Keynesian economics and good foreign policy chops. Iām doing my part on the GOP side to root out Trumpism but that role just got a lot harder.
We will be on the cover of Science magazine early next year for finding the first small molecule blocking attachment of SARS-CoV-2 to the ACE2 receptor on human cells. It locks the SARS2 spike protein into its trimeric state, where one arm of it can't fold back to bind ACE2.
But come April 2025, we're unfunded.
Seriously, I think there should be a lot more research like this. I'm sure the pharmaceutical companies are doing a similar thing but it's not easy. A lot of trial and error but hopefully and educated guess for the trial.
I think you misdiagnose the takeaway on the election. There certainly is a pushback on those things, but I'm not sure it's the defining takeaway from the election. If the economic assessment of the electorate was positive, I think Harris would be President. I think both Brad and Goat have been nailing it with their take on what Harris should have been doing and what her prospects were given the hand she had to play.
You've already said that Democrats have been mostly right in terms of policy, especially economic ones, so I'm a little confused about "getting back" to their moderate policy chops.
And we'll have to "hard disagree" on the loudness. We have a large variety of institutions across the political spectrum and I don't find universities to be a substantially louder voice than other large institutions.
That is really terrible. I love Indiana. Even if I think you all are somewhat simple.l and childlike.
Youāre not jaded. Stay that way.
I was just about to post the following
That broad can leave her Gen X card at the counter on her way out...maybe the boomers will take her in, more her style anyway.
Iāve raised over a mil in the last three years from Corp grants. For one product. Minimal effort. Pfizer. Gates. Foundations. Thereās got to be Corp/foundation outlets for important research.
Thanks Chicago. You give really good compliments.
They havenāt left the building on their policy but they lead with rhetoric and the rhetoric is woke identity politics. If you poll independent voters and moderate republicans that despise Trump, theyāll mostly agree that whatās distasteful about the modern Democratic Party is its messaging from the loud Left. Their border policy is just a nested piece of their play on identity politics and itās snapped them.
And Iām sorry but I highly disagree on universities not amplifying the loud Left more than other institutions - especially if you define institutions as corporations. Corporations are abandoning Wokeism like delta-front property in New Orleans. Their studies found itās a cancer and is yet another reason why I trust the market more than Iāll ever trust government and academia.
Edit: have you forgotten the debacle from the deans of MIT, Harvard etc?
