I don’t know, maybe because they’re athletes and not the cause of the conflict?

What a monumentally stupid fucking comment.

Yeah, providing nothing that could convince a realistic person that Texas is “blue”.

It’s because I think the GOP has all the voting machines rigged

Sure they do.

Repeated false hope doesn’t fire up anybody. It demoralizes people.

A lot of shitting on the possibility here.

For good reason, this claim is made constantly.

Fucking maniacs. Is not and never has been a “Christian country”.

The delusion that literally every employer is a billionaire is fucking embarrassing.

let’s go about it the right way.

By deluding yourself into thinking a business of any size is the same as mega corporations and doing nothing else. Good work.

No, they didn’t qualify. They did qualify for the “youth” version, but that’s later and in Qatar.

I would much rather provide a social safety net

Good news, you’re doing NEITHER.

I fucking hate the term “nothingburger”. Just lazy, dismissive bullshit. If you can’t see the significance of this, that’s on you.

I wonder what their alternative is…

We signed numerous agreements with the Soviet Union throughout the near half-century Cold War and they were a much more serious, direct threat than Iran is.

I mean, I don’t want to give David Cross a hard time about it, but it’s like, why did you go on his show?

Probably for the exposure to further his career. Disappointing but he may not actually care about what he says he does.

So purely baseless speculation with no ulterior motive, sure. You’re trying to insinuate conspiracy while maintaining plausible deniability.

Your “plausible alternative explanation” isn’t much different then saying the assassination attempt was conducted by space aliens. We can say all kinds of things if we disregard the need for evidence.

Journalists embed themselves in military units all the time. There’s a big incentive to take personal risk to get footage of major events.

Are we really pretending that the Trump administration had such a close relationship with certain media outlets that he convinced them to go along with this outlandish conspiracy and not a word of that has ever emerged?

Literally none of that proves any kind of premeditated conspiracy. The fact that the shooter was Republican and that Trump couldn’t use it to his political advantage makes it clear.

You just want to believe that because it’s more interesting than reality.

Then why do you believe that’s what happened?

I had heard it was due to a communication breakdown between the local authorities and Secret Service. It’s a stunning lapse but not impossible, presidents have been assassinated and attacked before.

and the Secret Service let him

They were probably getting him out of there after confirmation the shooter was killed.

Great seeing the left and right finding common ground in unrealistic conspiracy theories.

Journalists rushing to get shots of a historic moment, so shocking.

Trump is Neo dodging bullets apparently.
