I think NE would have been done WITH Brady given everything else that's happened since last season. Just maybe not so obviously.

Why is this even news? I mean, even in Buffalo Business First, why is this even news? This is simply a shady real estate deal on the part of the real estate broker/firm/sellers.

Now, I don't give a pile of dog poop if you want to call me names, impugn my motives, reply with memes or youtube videos or whatever, but I draw the line at smearing me by quoting me and then changing that post to fit whatever agenda you have. Not being a snowflake, I can take care of myself in ideological tussles, but I will not have my words altered so that somebody seeing that altered post in the future might think that I actually said something I didn't. I've had two posters do that to my quotes in the last week, both excusing themselves with "FIFY". Well, dudes and dudettes, you best not try to "fix it" for me. My words be mine, and don't mess with them. I don't care if you're supporting me or dissing me. Changing quoted statements is against the TOS and I will PM you a warning about it once when I see that you've done that, friend or foe. Do it again, and I will report you for it. If other posters want to accept others changing their quotes, that's their choice. I'm not policing PPP, just my own posts. I don't care if you rip what I have to say to shreds, but don't quote me and then change the wording of those quotes to pretend I said something I didn't.

Ummm ... how can a prediction be a "hoax"? What do you think will happen when Covid Donnie loses and refuses to accept it?

I expect it's many more than 10 Republican Senators who feel that way. It's probably only 10 who've actually voiced those fears and discussed it with their colleagues. I don't think that the election will be all that close, either in popular vote or in electoral votes that there will be much chance of Trump having a viable course of legal action. Even Republican pollsters are saying that Trump's got very little chance of winning. That doesn't mean that Trump wouldn't try the courts or that he wouldn't try to rally his Trumplets via social media to protest in the streets etc. Supporting Trump in refusing to leave office after losing the election would be the kiss of death to any politician. It would forever tarnish "Republican" with the "traitor" label, and doom the GOP's electoral prospects for the foreseeable future, maybe forever (ie, it would be replaced with another conservative party). If Covid Donnie is defeated and refuses to leave, I think both Congress and the Supreme Court will turn on him. The SCOTUS will throw out his legal appeals because they believe in the rule of law, and the House will impeach him and the US Senate will vote him out of office unless somebody can persuade him to resign. Pence will be POTUS until January 20, 2021. The GOP will then try to figure out how to rebuild from the political disaster that was Donald J Trump while the country as a whole will struggle to recover from the social and economic disaster that Covid Donnie visited upon this country. The new Congress sworn in on January 3, 2021 will pass a constitutional amendment providing for the removal of a POTUS if Congress determines that he's unfit for office and send it out to the states for ratification. It will be ratified, possibly in record time. The 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 25th amendments were all proposed and ratified in response to economic or political issues that arose shortly before their proposals. My guess is that it will be decades at least before the American electorate takes another flyer on a some wannabe President without some political experience.

Why is Kamala "annoying"? Because, like your hero Covid Donnie, you dislike successful, accomplished women who aren't subservient to bullies? Or because she wouldn't give a Internet tough guy wannabe like yourself a second look -- even in your wildest fantasies?

👍 👍 👍 Go, DeAndre!!!! The indignation of the Trumplets in that piece was hilarious, especially the one from the guy whining to the Cardinals on social media that he had his eight-year-old son with him. Trumplet Daddy is taking his kid to what is essentially a hate rally complaining that the kid was exposed to an obscene gesture ... priceless! That ranks up there with the Baby Trumps Ivanka and Jared threatening to sue the Lincoln Project because of their billboards in Times Square. Like most RW snowflakes these Trumplets can dish it but can't take it.

Sad but true.

I started this thread to remind people of the cost in human terms of Donald J Trump's politicization of the pandemic because dumbass Covid Donnie stupidly thought it would only hit blue states and big cities because it hit New York and Washington State first, and then moved on to the rest of the Northeast. The 225+k deaths are only the tip of the iceberg on human costs, however. Tens of thousands of Americans have suffered long term physical and neurological effects from Covid-19. We still don't know how many will be permanently disabled by it and how many may recover eventually. Tens of thousands American families have been hit with huge medical bills for family members who had severe cases of Covid-19 and landed in the hospital for weeks or months. The average Covid-19 hospitalization with complications costs about $20k more than health insurance generally covers. Millions of Americans have lost their jobs or their businesses, all of the state governments are facing huge deficits because of the costs of dealing with the pandemic amid cratering tax revenues, and entire industries like live entertainment and travel and tourism have been devastated. Meanwhile, Covid Donnie continues to claim Covid-19 is no big deal and that "we're turning the corner" while more Americans suffer. If you don't wish to be reminded of the cost of Covid Donnie's actions, don't read this thread. Demented and evil. Any ignorant ****head can get elected POTUS because if you put enough lipstick on a pig, enough fools will mistake it for a pretty girl to want to dance with it. Serious crises separates the pigs from the pretty girls. A sane individual sitting in the Oval Office amid a pandemic, even if he were a pig with lots of make-up, would have sense enough to defer to and follow the lead of the public health experts. He would care about the American people and the American nation enough to "do the right thing". Many of us have seen in our own lifetimes that even reprehensible politicians like Richard Nixon can suck it up and "do the right thing". All of us have seen a POTUS respond to crises the way we expect our presidents to respond: George W Bush rallied the country after the 9/11 attacks and then in 2008, he acted swiftly and brought Dems and Republicans together to prevent economic collapse. I've said this before and I'll repeat it. He's a sociopath at best. Nobody and nothing matters to Trump except his personal gratification. He could be much worse. His embrace of Qanon and other conspiracy theories might be either a result or a cause of what appears to be paranoia. He seems to be out of touch with reality. He cannot seem to separate fact from fiction. He seems to inhabit an alternative universe. He's Nero fiddling while Rome burns. Trump also seems to suffer from delusions that he's this all powerful, all knowing being who can do no wrong. He thinks that everybody loves him and agrees with him. He wants to be Vladimir Putin but he's more like Idi Amin or Pol Pot, willing to sacrifice millions for his self gratification. I think all Bills fans can relate to this. We've spent so many years waiting for the Bills to really "turn it around" and when they finally look to have done, we can't really be a part of it as fans. Football translates great to TV, but it's a poor substitute for the comaraderie of tailgaiting before the game and actually being there and cheering the Bills on to wins, especially after not have much to really cheer about for so long.

Exactly right. 👍

If you're a Trumplet or alt Rightist or some other assorted Rightie who gets his/her "news" from Right Wing twitter feeds, then you do probably "really believe Covid will go away as a story the day after the election" because you really believe that the mainstream media is using the coronavirus pandemic news to help Joe Biden. It doesn't matter to you that more than 225,000 Americans have died from Covid-19 because they were old or overweight or smokers or asthmatic or cancer patients/survivors or diabetics ...

I think that the most improbable part of the laptop story is that Hunter Biden would bother to have a laptop repaired or that he would take a laptop containing sensitive material to a mom-and-pop computer repair shop where he didn't know the proprietor personally. People with the kind of money Hunter Biden has don't repair old laptops, they trash them and buy new. They also send their assistants to run their errands rather than doing them themselves. Hell, people with the modest money I have aren't all that likely to have a laptop repaired.

You obviously don't watch much football. The Carp have been playing significantly better than the Pats or Jests. I think that they have more talent than either, especially at QB, and Brian Flores has been coaching lights out. He seems to get the most out of the talent he has, and his teams play tough. The Bills escaped Miami with a 3 point win in week 2. I think they'll need to be playing better than they have recently to beat the Carp again in the season ender.

The MSM doesn't have to portray Covid Donnie as the pathological liar, misogynistic bully, and pathetic coward. He does that all by himself. He decided to take advantage of the opportunity for free air time to get his message out to millions of 60 Minutes viewers, and he revealed the truth that he has no "message" except that he's a pathological liar, misogynistic bully, and pathetic coward with absolutely no substance. After telling Leslie Stahl that he wanted Obamacare gone and had a "great" health care plan to replace it that he would reveal "soon" and after he walked out on the interview, Covid Donnie sent his sycophant Kayleigh McEnany out with a huge tomb that was supposed to be the outline of his health care plan but turned out to be nothing more than a collection of exec orders and other bull manure but not even a rough outline of a health care plan.

Yes, yes there is, and yes they did. Originally the site address was a "secret" among selected snowflakes but it's since been posted in at least two threads that I've seen.

This bull manure is true only in the alternative universe inhabited by Covid Donnie and his loyal true believers like yourself.

I'm sure the folks at the Lincoln Project are shaking in their shoes. Politicians and their adult children who feed at the public trough by working for Daddy are fair game for just about anybody to say anything about them.

About 80% of Americans now live in areas classified as "urban", which is, IIRC, means a municipal area of 50K residents or more. Numerous states have traditionally been dominated by 1 or 2 big metros starting in the 1960s when the SCOTUS required apportionment of all local and state representatives be based on one person, one vote. These include California, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Washington. As population has shifted to the South and the West, these states have also become dominated by their big metros, primarily because that's where the migrants have settled but also because the rural areas everywhere in the country are emptying out. Now states like Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Texas and Virginia have also come to be dominated by their large urban metros. This maps shows pretty well where Americans currently live: US Population Density Map

Mark Short, VP Mike Pence's chief of staff, plus at least 2 other VP staffers, have tested positive for Covid-19. Mike Pence will continue his campaign tour instead of quarantining for 14 days as CDC guidelines recommends because being a politician running for office makes him "an essential worker". WH Chief of Staff Mark Meadows apparently tried to suppress the news of these positive tests.

That should cheer up the Trumplets.

De-Nial ain't a just a river in Egypt. Trumplets share the same alternative universe as their hero where they all deny any facts that they don't like.

Sour grapes, NB. You'd like him to disappear because he reminds even Trumplets what a lying, stupid, sociopathic turd Covld Donnie is.
