The Frankish Reich

I apologize. It appears I have hurt your feelings.

We know you love you some Trump. Other than those tremendous 4 years, what other President do you admire? I mean, he was all about Making America Great Again, so that presupposes some earlier golden age. Is it the 4.1% inflation rate at the end of Reagan's second term? Is it the 4.1% inflation rate just before the 2008 election when Obama won? Because then surely you'll love today's 3.24% rate!

I know that's how you feel. But you are objectively wrong. Again.

What do you call a Democrat who is planning to vote for Trump? A new-style Republican. Feelings. Whoa, whoa, whoa, feelings ...

The latest chapter in the ongoing story: post-Trump Republicans are now all about feelings, Democrats are now all about data.

Hmm, now that Alex Jones is back on Twitter, where do all our Trumpies stand on the repeal of section 230? They've been very quiet ever since the Musk buyout....

Inappropriate. I feel dirty because I laughed.

There is no "state interest" here in preserving potential life, since there is no potential life. It is almost a perfect test case for the post-Roe world. Texas will basically be forced to argue that there is a state interest in making a woman have a miscarriage/deliver a stillborn baby/deliver a baby that will die almost immediately after delivery.

It appears that everyone has moved on from Dylan Mulvaney. Except, of course, for one very trans curious poster here.

Dear ChatGPT, Thank you for the tips!

Amazing how quickly the balance of power changes. 2022: the great young QBs are in the AFC. AFC is entering a new era of dominance. 2023: never mind.

Broncos within one game of the Chiefs in the AFC West!

Holy crap! It didn't play to script.

Calling it now: defensive hold on the Bills. Or PI. Or roughing the passer.

Exactly what I thought. Would I decline it? Yes.

They left us enough time this time!! Thank you Travis.

So that when we inevitably settle for a FG, and then KC scores a TD, we'll have just enough clock left for one final hail Mary.

Herbert out for the Chargers. It's Easton Stick (who? what?) for the win.

Actually NYT playoff machine says ... go Bengals! Improves our chances of making the playoffs from 20% to 24%. (But I'm guessing the Colts will blow it in future weeks, so that may change my perspective)

C'mon, play for the tie!

And unfortunately he's off to a nice start today too. Or maybe I want the Bengals to win? I can't remember anymore.

It is Flacco. But imagine if Flacco had taken over for Rodgers in Game 1 for the Jets. He's not good, but he's not Zach Wilson or whoever else bad. You really can do worse than signing a QB off the street.

Casey thinks encouraging a little voter fraud is o.k. when Ron is the beneficiary. https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2023/12/09/casey-desantis-iowa-caucus-moms/

I finally watched a few "highlights." Dominated, of course, by Vivek and Christie, two candidates who are not winning anything. Vivek continues to campaign for VP while Christie is furthering his future as a TV pundit. DeSantis and Haley did nothing that 98% of the electorate will notice. At least Haley gets a tiny bit of screen time as the chivalrous fat man defends her honor. A total minor league affair on a minor league network. It will change absolutely nothing. We remain on the highway to hell, Biden-Trump II.

Wow. Big if true. We should definitely George Santos him.
