And, even if they aren't, all you have to do is believe they are, and it becomes true.

Well that would have been helpful to know in past elections before it actually became true on its own.

Did you just fall for a liberal parody picture that's 5 years old?

that likelihood hasn't occurred to you?

No... it hadn't, at all. It's not something that I'm threatened by or vulnerable to, to even notice or care. So what if he was? When guys like Vance and Carlson say shit like this, it merely outs THEM! They just reveal their own sexual insecurity... like you just did! It implies there's some alleged defect or weakness that doesn't exist in being gay and/or bi, or whatever the hell. Whatever it is, you DO NOT want to be gay or bi... oh, lord, no! That's worse than cancer! "Straight" is a mental construct that humans created, just like everything else.

Judging by looks, Trump wears more facial bronzer than Siegfried AND Roy. So, clearly Trump has blown a ton of guys! I'm sure you can excuse him.

Every time i read a wonky looking poll i'm fortunate enough to come across stuff like this. I suspect polling is less of a thing next season.

When I hear that... I don't think he's saying he wants to have Liz Cheney shot. They edited this quite a bit. She, and her father, are/were pro-war when it came to sending US troops into the Middle East. That was one of the biggest mistakes in the history of American foreign policy. So, what I heard, or understood Trump to mean, was that if Liz (and, maybe her father), or any of those GOP warhawks, were on the business end of the bombs and the weaponry, they might be a little less eager to use military force to police the world, when it's your country in the cross-hairs. Of course, I understand how people could also understand it to seem like a man who is looking to get even with his own domestic political rivals, especially when you only hear 20 seconds of what he said.

Thank you for pointing out the silliness of these types of manipulative attempts. Both sides say enough stupid stuff without having to make it up.

It was, as usual, kind of a dumb thing to say at a pivotal time. But that's his entire presence in American politics.

The polling is definitely broken. When you have people like @DaveChapelle saying that anyone who votes for Trump is a racist, it's not surprising that people may be hesitant to tell a pollster they're voting for him just to get a 10 minute tongue lashing.

It's an ancient proverb. It doesn't reflect anything specifically. It's certainly wouldn't reflect you, or anything you follow or believe. You're much too smart for that, just like me.
