Re: Eric Trump is a chip off the block

So what's next? That may well depend on who Trump chooses as his VP candidate. I'm reasonably confident that on the Democrat side of the aisle that the answer isn't Kamala Harris. It’s either Buttigieg, Newsom, Whitmer or someone we aren’t thinking of. The Governors of Kentucky and Pennsylvania cou...

Re: Eric Trump is a chip off the block

Interesting theory I had this morning. The question has now become why do we look at Donald Trump and say "I just can't quit you, baby?" Yes, there is quite a bit of pride involved, but I think it goes deeper. For many years, most of us got sick and tired of glad handing, promise making, "kiss the ...

Re: WDIV's Bryan Schuerman is a moron

The nasally voiced clown is forecasting a high of 75 degrees this afternoon. Is that forecast for Detroit or is it for Fantasy Land? Holy shit. Does he not realize we're on the cold side of a strong upper level low? There are air temps in SW Michigan in the upper 50s right now! That cool air is see...

Re: Eric Trump is a chip off the block

I've made very clear in here in the past that I could care less about Hunter Biden's laptop. In the same vein, I could care less about something Eric Trump posted on Twitter. I just don't care. Was it in poor taste? I can see why some people would be offended. But again, on a scale of 1 to 10 on ho...

Re: Eric Trump is a chip off the block

Per the logic of the thread title, does this make Joe Biden a crackhead? As to the story here - I see much ado about nothing. The entire weekend is about remembering people who literally gave up everything for this country. There are some things you simply leave alone until Tuesday. It’s not like t...

Re: Eric Trump is a chip off the block

So, if it was posted on the 23rd or the 28th it would be ok? I'm generally more concerned about the substance of post than the timing. I know people that get angry over stupid krap like this, they are not fun to be around... Appearances are everything. The timing is no coincidence and secondly the ...

It was posted on the 24th. If was posted on the 27th, I would concur that would be poor timing.
No big coincidence here… just more all about us for the cult to lap up. Nice try.

I mostly agree with you that it was a long-shot, but he needed it to get widespread ballot access.
He’ll likely make 270 EV’s worth and he “viable” by September. Trump’s appearance there didn’t sink RFK. RFK not being a true believer sank RFK.

Where's the kaBoo? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering kaBoo!

Trump did accomplish KO'ing RFK JR. for Libertarian. RFK Jr's running mate skipped the convention after the first vote.
RFK was NEVER going to be the party nominee.

Re: Red Lobster closing in Michigan?

Why would you go to Red Lobster when you could go to Eddie V's? It's not that much more expensive and you get a better meal. Uh.....thats the point. They're closing stores right and left, so no one is going. I'm sorry, did I say they weren't? I gotta say, when you try to appear aggressive, it comes...

Re: Trump Booed at Libertarian National Convention

While I consider myself as being somewhere between a Conservative and a Libertarian politically, the Libertarian party itself is a joke. The fact that Trump was booed by that group isn't surprising, and frankly isn't particularly newsworthy other than for the fact that Trump isn't used to being boo...
