“Whether it’s Trump not showing up or Rama Duwaji wearing $650 boots, both sides have made some questionable inauguration choices.” —- New York Times

It absolutely does not work that way. There is a presidential line of succession: there is not a vice presidential line of succession.

From your lips to…err….wait.

My guess is that it doesn’t REALLY have anything to do with church and state. It has everything to do with HIS church.

For all their obvious faults, the Founders were sincere about wanting America to succeed.

I would leave it to Revolutionary scholars, but I would be surprised if they did not have some a-holes LIKE McConnell. They just likely thought the system or peer pressure would contain them.

We would love to.

But, sadly, power and wealth are concentrated among folks with zero incentive to do that. Americans, by and large, do eff-all for the good of the order.

If we “bulldozed it,” it would be through a Constitutional Convention that would likely give guns personhood.

Thx, tho.

A million times this.

The Founders didn’t “get it wrong,” either. Unless you think the guys who lived at a time when bloodletting was an accepted medical procedure should have been able to see 250 years into the future.

So, serious question: is the reason electeds always do this because they want to burnish their resumes for re-election or higher office, because the voters are not that bright, or because they themselves are not that bright, or b/c they like hanging around sports teams?

Asserting something strongly > actual math in today’s society, sadly.

“Jim Jordan followed you.”

It’s possible. He will be 32 next week, though. His production could drop off a cliff before long. Or he could really be superhuman

Is it really successful, though? I mean, it seems to be a beaut for the Braves. For Cobb County taxpayers, maybe not so much.

This is not a conspiracy and is not new. The whole FOX=NFC, CBS=AFC thing went away years ago. That’s the framework, but certain games flip.

Welp. The time to be angry was 14 months ago, and we blew it, so….here we are.

You’re describing the Jets, right?

I know the Cowboys basically started this back in the day, requiring you buy a bond to get Texas Stadium built, but do you think if the people of Charlotte had told Jerry Richardson to sod off over PSLs back in 1993, we might not have this scourge?

Harvey is one of TV’s great characters.

Could they buy mine?

Here is your regular reminder that Gaines finished fifth.
