  1. You guys are right. I had a little too much fun with it, but see the error of my ways. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I think your grasp of reality is loose at best. Okay, for the benefit of everyone else, I'll stop screwing with him. I just don't understand why people keep biting off on his trolling responses. Don't humor him anymore... His immediate go to is, "but you're not using facts, please give me yet another example I will ignore in my next response as well."
  3. and of the two of us, one of us has resorted to name calling. Have I gotten under your skin. Toughen up buddy.
  4. This is just getting fun. Did I trigger you? You're making it too easy. I started out trying to work with you, but your continued, intentional ignorance in the face of fact, reason and logic just makes it hard to take you seriously anymore. Notice what I bolded in your reply. You sure you wanna stand by that statement? You're embodying sexist ideas by saying emotion tends to a feminine quality. Ideas like that, men shouldn't exhibit emotion, are definitely sexist. In a real discussion/argument emotion has no place. You continue to ignore what people say, so now I'm just screwing with you. It is so predictable, the tropes you will immediately apply to a given response. If you think these are emotional responses, sorry buddy. And yes, you are right, I am condescending to you. That means to talk down to...
  5. Just helping you out here again buddy, since reading does, in fact appear really tough for you. Accusations alone can damage/destroy careers. If you haven't seen it, you aren't looking...
  6. Hate to quote myself, but since you continue to refuse to see the point, I'll post (with bold, italics to make it easier for you this time) this for others because I know you'll still ignore it. The thought process way back in the day created the system used now. That system is what makes it difficult for women/minorities. Again, Guardian doesn't seem to read too well, so I'll reiterate it one more time, suggestions on how to fix the process have all been said in here. I can't help you if you refuse to read it...
  7. Please, enlighten the group... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Agreed! CinC spoke out of both sides of his mouth on China until the Rona. Unfair trade out of one side, great leader, great country out of the other. His “hard line” with China could have been so much more effective, but I’ll take the little he did do. More than Obama by a far cry... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. That is absolutely the point trying to be made here. It wasn’t done because of/by sexist/racist people. The thought process at the time excluded those people. We haven’t corrected for it yet. The cockpit sizing issue is a very difficult one to tackle because it requires significant chuncks of dollars to fix. Other issues (before you ask, they’ve already been highlighted in here multiple times) are not as difficult to tackle. No one is accusing anyone of being racist/sexist.

  11. This was the equivalent of me asking you to show me a dog, you pointing to a dog and saying, "that's a dog" then me saying, "ok, I see what you're saying, but I don't see any dogs, can you show me an actual dog?" Except, in this scenario you gave an example of how the system can hurt certain people, and Guardian said, "ok, but I don't see how that hurts certain people. Can you show me yet another example I will disregard?" Just don't respond anymore. He'll ignore the facts and then say you're the one ignoring the facts. Give it about 5', he'll be on here saying I'm projecting, or to put it on his level, "I'm rubber you're glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you..." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I couldn't agree more with you on this. I don't think you should be able to run for president until 50, reason being you've actually lived some life to have experience on a large swath of subjects, yet young enough to still be "in touch" with younger people. No older than 65 because you're now officially too old to really be in touch with what is going on. Only my opinion. No data to back it up.
  13. You guys remember when Trump tweeted: "Vladimir Putin said today about Hillary and Dems: In my opinion it is humiliating. "One must be able to lose with dignity." So True". He said that on Christmas Eve in 2016. For anyone else, that would feel pretty silly right about now. But since he doesn't feel he lost, it doesn't apply. Funny huh!? Reminds me of when Obama read the mean tweet on Jimmy Kimmel. Trump said Obama would go down as one of the worst presidents in history. Obama then said, "At least I will have been a president..." He even dropped the mic. It was hilarious, but like Seadogs predictions, it didn't age well.
  14. I agree with much of what you say, but I'm curious as to what you're basing your assumptions of Trump's "earnest" intent on, or why you think he would only be doing it because that is what is advisors were telling him to say initially. On the medical conditions stuff, I don't get why people with zero access to the individual, zero medical training, especially in that particular specialty feel free to speculate on medical conditions. All these Monday morning quarterbacks claim sleepy Joe has dementia, and others say Trump is crazy or has Asperger's, or whatever. Could it simply be that Joe Biden is a 77 year old man, so a little slower in speech? I'm no expert, but I've talked to a lot of old people over the years. They just aren't as spry as they used to be. Could it be that Trump is simply an A-hole that thinks he's smarter than everyone else? Everything you're saying could very well be true. It's just interesting that everyone acts like they KNOW.
  15. Should we keep a running tally of your incredibly bold predictions? You're on a roll.
  16. Are you serious Clark? Absolutely valid that there will be recounts. Absolutely valid that Trump could still pull this one out. He'll need some luck though: From 2009 to 2019, there were 5,778 statewide general elections, according to the non-partisan group FairVote. In that span there were 31 completed recounts. Less than 10% resulted in an overturned outcome. Those that were overturned were in elections much closer than anything Trump is going to contest. The overturned counts were with margins of less than .05%. We're looking at over 2.5% in NV, .6% in AZ, .6% in WI, .2% in GA and .7% in PA. I'm not too great of a mathematician, but none of those are less than point zero five percent... https://www.fairvote.org/a_survey_and_analysis_of_statewide_election_recounts Correct me if I'm wrong (not uncommon), but it's the Trump camp that is crying about shenanigans in the elections. Everyone else, I mean I haven't taken a poll or anything, but everyone else says that the system works. We should let the system do its thing. You realize the scale of coordination that would have had to take place IOT make it appear as though Trump was in the lead, then craftily overturn it slowly? Yeah, sure the DNC is competent enough to pull that off. Okay. More likely, as has been repeated ad naseum on here, on every news site, to include Fox News, this was predicted because Trump encouraged in-person voting instead of mail in voting. That would give a lead initially to Trump, then a slowly diminishing lead eventually resulting in potential overturning of those leads. Follow the logic train brick. You guys keep claiming to love logic so much, but never seem to pay attention to it. So, I don't want you to feel like I didn't answer your question, no, no you did not get that right...
  17. I'm done trying to reason with you, make whatever childish claims you want. You don't read too well if that's what you got from his post. Stop being stupid, please, for the AF's sake. You continually cry about people not using reason, logic, data, etc., but it's crazy how the posts you complain about usually contain those exact things, then you never respond to any of it. Go away. You don't bring anything to the conversation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Point 8 is spot on unfortunately... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Don't be a tool. I read it wrong, that's why I asked for a link. He provided it. I was corrected. NBD. Point still stands, what's wrong with what she's asking? I think k she's way too immature/inexperienced to be good at her job yet, and the GND is a complete non starter, but she's got a point in remembering who the hypocrites are.

  20. Didn't scroll to yesterday. My bad, got zero issues admitting I don't Twitter good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. I guess I don't understand Twitter because the link you provided, at least show me, a timestamp of 3:18. You first posted this almost 25 minutes ago. How's that work? Does the timestamp refresh for the person looking at it. If not, you're reposting a fake tweet because her page doesn't show it. Totally possible I don't understand Twitter. First time I ever went to the site. I still ask, what's wrong with the question. Take note of the hypocrites...
  22. Please provide a link. Her twitter feed shows nothing like that. Look, I can do what you did: "I, Donald Trump, hereby and forthwith concede that I lost, and there were no shenanigans. I made all that up!" See, easy... ETA: reading the quote you attribute to her, what's wrong with that? Lindsey Graham should be forced to watch video of himself calling Trump all sorts of nasty things nonstop, until he was the President. Then, acting like he was the GOP's savior. Being shown their hypocrisy would be a good thing for them...
  23. Maybe I can't read good and stuff, but I just went to her page, saw nothing like this. Although she is pushing the GND which is ridiculous at best!
  24. I wish you guys could just put up or shut up with credible, hard, real evidence of the "level of shenanigans" put into play, especially of the magnitude claimed. Even Trump's own party (if you can ever claim he was GOP) recognizes how silly and childish this looks. But by all means, continue ignoring facts and reason. It makes you guys look even better...
