Has Trump endorsed Sessions yet?

A fine afternoon too. Tomorrow the cold front and glaciers show up.

On Bloomberg, centrist candidates generate even less appeal today than in the past. And Mike has less charisma than even the other boring fake moderates like Klobuchar, Buttagieg, and Yang. The only thing Bloomie has going for him is the ability to self-finance, but he'll be wasting his money.

I’m on the lanai, where it is currently 86 degrees. ( I know. Poor me). Expecting 12 people in a while for ribs, beans, brown bread, French bread, Mac and cheese, salad, appetizers and dessert. No keto involved.

Oh well...

If I had a compound next to The Mid-Ocean Club in Tuckerstown, Bermuda that is where I would spend my senior years not on a campaign trail.

jimmyk,

I agree with you. Democrats seem to think that money is the #1 thing for a candidate, but Trump had charisma, glamour, celebrity from his television show, and policies which caught the public's imagination, not to mention the voters wanting to tell all of the candidates (both sides) to stick it.

Now Trump also has the fact that he kept his promises and a good economy.

The call to the Ukrainian President was PERFECT. Read the Transcript! There was NOTHING said that was in any way wrong. Republicans, don’t be led into the fools trap of saying it was not perfect, but is not impeachable. No, it is much stronger than that. NOTHING WAS DONE WRONG!

Jim Eagle

Adam Schiff is single-handely giving Trump a landside victory in 2020 and most likely returning the House to the GOP. If that happens I hope someone in the GOP like Jim Jordan will have the cajones to bring Schiff up on not just Ethics charges but subjourning false testimony to a House committee.

He is deserving of whatever they can do to reduce him to tears and shivers.

JiB, I thought you were going to say the GOP should give Schiff a medal. Encourage him to keep going, and in a couple of years the D party will go the way of the Whigs. I'm (half) serious. I suppose it's more important to set the precedent of punishing these clowns.

This is about Kimberly Klacik, a black Republican running for Cummings' old seat in Baltimore.

David Horowitz @horowitz39 · 30m A hero of the coming revolution. April Ryan is of course an enemy of the revolution and an enabler of the corruption that Elijah Cummings was part of, and the oppression of inner city minorities not only in Baltimore but throughout the Democrat plantion nationally.

Beautiful day here in Cleveland.
Bloomberg will prove to be a non- factor in the election.
Joe Biden will falter on Super Tuesday.

Started out at 57F at sunrise. Now 76F with a gentle breeze and beautiful rollers coming off the Atlantic. Osso Bucco on the menu tonight. I can't go wrong with that.

Can only get the KC v. Titans game but it is a humdinger. I had forgot a power Derrick Henry can be when he gets the ball. Mahomes has thrown twice the passes as Tannenhill but they are only up 22-20.

Good game, if you like a penalty after every 2nd play.

I always wondered what a pro game would look like without any refs:)

Following up on some comments made about younger generations (and I really am not clear on the definitions of millennials,Gens-X-Zetc.) on the previous thread, I do see with my children and their peers an astonishing lack of self-esteem, a lot of loneliness and a lack of resiliance. Odd because it seems all through their schooling they got tremendous praise. Maybe they know intuitively much of it was disingenuous.
I also have noted that very few of them are interested in older movies.

Jim Eagle

peter,

Mine is 16. His priority is to get his driver's license and be able to drive our 2014 BMW 3 series Cabriolet as his own personal carriage:) He likes to sleep in on Sundays since at his school he has half days on Wednesday and Saturday but then he has football to go through. He stays more up-to-date on politics, movies, sports, music, miscellany than I do. They do all that on their iPhones.

I call them the cyber-generation.

And Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself.

Mass. people. Frederick's school Canterbury plays Middlesex School out of Concord next Saturday in New Milford, CT for some kind of private school championship. He is psyched.

"Marley was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. The register of his burial was signed by the clergyman, the clerk, the undertaker, and the chief mourner. Scrooge signed it. And Scrooge's name was good upon 'Change for anything he chose to put his hand to. Old Marley was as dead as a doornail.
Epstein, however, did not kill himself. "

Jim Eagle

Kelly being a Marine General, I believe but Tillerson being a private company CEO who Trump screwed up putting him a position he was not qualifiedl for, I do believe could be a resister. Trump did make some bad calls on personnel starting out. He had no experience with cabinet appointments or DC who's who. He has been a quick learner and Mulvaney and Pompeo have helped immensely.

Given the Senate #nevertrump crew led by McShame, how would Trump get anyone sane confirmed for his cabinet? He made the best of bad options.

Jim Eagle

Never like Spagnola's defenses and he once again shows why. Titans score with 0.23 remaining. Titans 33-32 without the extra points scored yet.

Tannenhill drives in for 2 pts. Now 35-32 Titans. Why couldn't he do that with the Jags?

Captain Hate

Just to be clear, what Trump is going through is really aimed at us for voting for an outsider unapproved by the unfree press.

GUS

One thing I've not seen commented on in the NFL, is that HAVING REPLAY, subjects every single call to excess scrutiny. The over "replaying" and constant focus on even the most minor or insignificant miss of a potential penalty, or the possibility any given play being called wrongly, interferes with the sport.

henry

GUS, it’s not a sport anymore... just a random feed into Fantasy League gambling.

GUS

Ok ok, I stand corrected. Joe Buck PLUS Troy Aikman is/are the WORST.

Another Bob

That’s the problem with replay GUS. The pressure to add it came from obvious, glaring errors. But it ends up being used exclusively for the “nits on a gnats nvts” calls.

But the problem goes beyond replay. The game is just plain overofficiated. NFL is trying to micromanage the rules and is failing badly. E.g. nobody, and I mean nobody, knows what pass interference is anymore.

GUS

Henry, I fear you are correct. I see it dying in our lifetime.

GUS

I agree A-BOB. When YOU and I, don't know what the rule is, it's a problem.

BTW. What a FUCKING PLAY by Aaron Rodgers.

GUS

Fantastic play ruled TD, will be overturned. RIGHT NOW.
What would have happened over the last 100 years, that this shitstain called the NFL keep HYPING TO NO END.

“a Trump commercial you won't see on TV”

That’s really good. Almost wouldn’t mind seeing Parscale run that.

GUS

A-BOB, TD was overturned, and I think technically and under the rules, it was a correct call. TECHNICALLY. For 99 YEARS of the NFL, it would have stood. And so would dozens of other calls.
So why should every SCORE, be automatically reviewed, and not every 2nd and 9, from the 43 yard line. Every play in the game leads to something.
I just find replay to be contrived and considered for obtuse reasons.

GUS

A-BOB, refereeing in the NFL is BEYOND BAD.
The refs are fighting for their careers.

[Nikki] Haley recounts a closed-door encounter with then-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and then-Secretary of State Rex Tillerson: "Kelly and Tillerson confided in me that when they resisted the president, they weren't being insubordinate, they were trying to save the country … Tillerson went on to tell me the reason he resisted the president's decisions was because, if he didn't, people would die. This was how high the stakes were, he and Kelly told me. We are doing the best we can do to save the country, they said. We need you to work with us and help us do it. This went on for over an hour."

Absolutely there were and still are. On air “talent” too.

If they’re not pedophiles/rapists, then they are covering for colleagues who are, and have no problem with that behavior.

“Everyone” knew about Weinstein, and Moonves, and Matt Lauer, and Bill Cosby, and Epstein, and...

Just like back in the 60’s, all our “elites” knew JFK was a drug-addled rapist whose incompetence nearly started WW3 and whose brother used the FBI to attacking personal enemies and probably had Marilyn Monroe killed, and they sold the Camelot lie all the same.

Our “elites” absolutely suck on every level, and they have the morals of a gutter rat, and they have done for decades.
