Stop with the false equivalency. In 2000, only 5 electoral votes separated the candidates, and Gore was justified in waiting to concede because the difference came down to a recount in one state and the pending SCOTUS decision. Trump is currently behind by 74 electoral votes and none of his...

What does that have to do with baseball? BTW, I've worked in urban planning policy. Trump's "enterprize zones" are just another scam for developers like him to build high end real estate using tax-payer money. These funds and tax credits used to be granted on the condition that the developments...

The Dodgers won the World Series with a Black manager and a Mexican pitcher. Nothing Trump and Giuliani can do about that, triggered Yankees fans that they are.

I'm in the same situation, and as far I know all tourism outside of BA is off limits. Even people who live in the capital have a very difficult time just going to see relatives in the provinces, which all have different requirements, including a supervised 14 day quarantine (at your expense at...

Reread your original post, you made that implication about Buden voters, and I just responed to it. Scott Adams has said some favorable things about Trump and criticized him as well. He's also said: “The moment you join a group [or party], you start to identify your identity with the group’s...

Scott's a good guy, and I don't think it's fair for MAGA people to claim him. You're also making a Straw Man by asserting that most Biden voters had a high opinion of his "character." My summary of the election is that it was simply a choice between constipation and diarrhea. Which would you...

There's no proof of that. Biden did very badly with that same demographic because they will always vote GOP, and are pretty much a lost cause for the Democrats. There was an editorial in El País that pointed out the irony that they, more than anyone, should be averse to a strong man, or a...

GHWB is Yale (and Skull and Bones member) like his son.

I think the next demagogue/authoritarian could just as easily come from the other side, and maybe already has. I've taken note of how Kamala more and more deflects criticism of her sketchy record by crying racism and sexism. Even during the Obama presidency, white liberals regarded any...

Some would say this goes back to Dan "I'm as experienced as JFK" Quayle. The common denominator of course, is that all these half-wits have been from the GOP. The Democrats aren't too far behind, though, this may be the first time neither POTUS nor VP is Ivy League-educated.

He'd better not leave any beverages unattended around Kamala. She doesn't seem the type to wait four years for her turn.

First Word problems. There are families passing through my neighborhood every day digging through garbage. I'm sure they'd love to switch lives with you.

I somewhat disagree. From a policy standpoint, Bush was far, far worse than Trump. Two endless wars (one based on completely fabricated evidence), record deficit, worst recession in a century (until this year), just to name a few things. Most people who hate Trump hate what he stands for, and...

I think it's important to look at who the "protesters" are, not just their political banner. In Seattle and Portland the BLM protesters were majority white liberal college activist types and druggies who co-opted the original message into just a general anti-police, anti-Trump movement. In the...

The Republican strategy has worked in part because they've convinced poor and working class whites to view themselves as "white" and not poor (because this is a classist concept) and that their economic hardships are the result of being white in a system that gives everyone else advantages over...

I was almost going to say Ford, but it looks like he did do a little bombing in Cambodia.

At least Trump, unlike the last few presidents, hasn't started a war. Not yet, at least.

Good to know that it was the government and not the pandemic that caused all these problems. I've seen for myself that CABA has turned into the Mogadishu of the Americas.

I vote for Jimmy Carter. At 96, his brain is still functioning bettter than Trump's and Biden's combined.

They would have to be pretty stupid to come here instead of going somewhere in the Caribbean. Not to mention that even from CABA it's less of a bureaucratic hassle to fly to a beach in Costa Rica or Colombia than it is to travel to Mar de Plata.
