I am not at all salty. The results were pretty much what I expected. Harris was seriously one of the weakest presidential candidates since... Hell, I don't even know. Pelosi and Schumer forced Biden out and replaced him with someone that is arguably weaker than him. As in, if he would have ran, he wouldn't have won, but he would have gotten more votes.
She lacked personability, charisma, the ability to connect with people. At times awkward. Whoever ran that campaign was completely clueless.. Or maybe they just knew it wouldn't work, but it was like they were so worried about losing some of the black male vote they failed to reach out to the middle of the road voters. At least thats what the results suggest.
Im just playing devils advocate. What was mentioned could be looked at in two ways.. The only alcohol I drink is tequilla on rocks.

Sensible political discourse on the OT!? That's actually nice to see.

i’m busting your balls buddy
yeah, i truly wonder who made the final call to pull Biden and swap in Kamala. She was disliked by pretty much everyone until this past August. Who made that call and what was their reasoning. Was it really to take a dive and rally for 2028? And did they just hope with media manipulation and with “vote blue no matter who” / anyone but Trump mantra would work? I dunno.
It’s like the 2012 LSU Natty to pull JLee for JJ, i’d love to have been in the room when that decision was made.

Isn't that what Mansa Musa literally did, which is supposed to have single handedly caused inflation that destroyed Egypt's economy for a decade?

I'm half convinced that they replaced Biden with Kamala just because they figured that 2024 was a lost cause, so they might as well nominate Kamala now in order to prevent her from winning the nomination in 2028.

It’s mostly just stocks in companies. Not much to manage. The revenues have to be managed but you can just pay a guy to spread that around each month.

These two things have very little correlation. This is why Democrats advocate for stupid shite, they dont understand the very basics.

I know a few billionaires. They dress, act, and drive like people who make $250k per year except when it comes to vacationing.
There’s some cut off with real wealth wherein it just doesn’t matter anymore.
Edit: they all refuse to fly commercial. So I guess that’s a difference too.

It's not out of the realm of possibility, but I'm sure you're quite aware that price manipulation through commodity trading has been going on for centuries.

You buy a software company for $40 billion. You build robotic dogs that have flame throwers.
In your free time you create an APP that gives you election results 4 hours before the MSM announces the winner.
And you build a spaceship to go to mars.
