    Classic. Tommy Lee Jones was amazing in those movies.

    and, yes, bargaining with terrorists just gets you more terrorism. It’s literally the history of Gaza for Israel.

    Shunned by his family over personality of his preferred presidential candidate. What have we become?

    Nate isn’t infallible.

    that said, we are so screwed if people can’t see past Kamala’s kabuki campaign.

    She doesn’t care. You can tell by how she “clarified” it.

    Trump scored an own goal with Vance.

    Kamala may have forfeited the game with Walz.

    My take is same as yours:  Kamala runs the basement strategy and wins because the media wants her to.

    She did say that she would have her people put together a presser by the end of the month…

    Made my day. I wish I had known about it before he died.

    “Are you ready to receive my limp penis” belongs in the annals of trash talk.

    Just got a D fundraising email from Gavin Newsome with the subject line “Trump was not prepared for this.”

    It’s a funny reflection. I don’t think anybody really thought Kamala was a viable candidate even just 3 weeks ago. Nobody was prepared for this, Democrats.

    I should add a 10 cent per reply charge to this website.  Junk fees for the win.

    He’s an interesting profile. I would probably vote for him if he were at the top of the ticket right now.

    That said, he presents a challenge for Kamala because he’s very pro Israel.

    I’m ready.  There are plenty of women who have been in the conversation that I would have voted for.  Condi is one.  Haley is one.

    It would be a stunning rise and fall for Vance if he were to “resign” because of the badgering over a few stupid comments 3+ years ago.  I’m actually stunned more by the media’s ability to turn “cat ladies” into an everywoman offense vs. just a cat woman offense.  Trump was never going to win the cat ladies.

    That said, I think Trump screwed up by not picking Haley as VP nom.  In the hardcore Trumper circles Haley is viewed as disloyal and in the pockets of the neocons.  I think that’s way too politically naive.

    There ought to be a law against this.

    I also would pass a law preventing or capping remittances to countries from whence asylum seekers come.  Why should you be compelled to send cash back to a country that is persecuting you?

    I don’t know what to say except that France is a far less stable society than people think. Get off the beaten path and bad things can happen.

    A friend who is a PhD scientist and businessman had to visit a smaller city in France about 7 years ago on business. He was out in the evening and was approached by a group of middle eastern youths. One of them knifed him in the face without warning. Truly maimed him. Awful story.

    A theory:  women can get away with more controversial and anti-patriotic swagger than men because women get a pass for doing stupid stuff more than men.

    It’s a bit like the comedian bill burr’s bit on white women and activism. For some reason, white women are in a different category than white men when it comes to offenses of racial iniquity even though they have ridden right along with white men.  Why?  Unclear.
