That should tell you something about how important the USPS is for your Amazon deliveries. I literally am not saying people should lose their jobs. I was posting about how little I use the mail system and wondering about the rest of you. Link to comment

I'm pointing out that you probably use the mail system a whole lot more than you might realize. 1 Link to comment

But both of those pale in comparison to how bizarre it is that people will still vote for him, and be proud of that vote. That is the truly aberrant behavior. Link to comment

I think it would be closer to 25% Trump, 25% Biden (until they kick him to the curb and bring in the real person) and 50% not voting. 1 Link to comment

I was just doing the very scientifically sound method of assuming. Going off of state results: 59% of "all" Nebraskans voted for Trump. Nebraska is clearly a red state. Passionate sports fan tend to be right-wing So I jumped to the conclusion that a board of passionate fans, most living in a "red state", will be higher than the state average. Let the mods put a poll on the home page. Keep it private, no comments allowed. I'd be curious! P.S.: I'm most likely wrong. I was reading the comments under a 247Huskers article about the possibility of not having football next year. I was so surprised, I actually took a count of comments. At the time I read it, there were 62 comments. 32 comments weren't political in nature, but cautious about our situation. 29 comments made a point to blame the Trump administration for their lack of a timely response, and only 1 made a point to defend Trump. So.... 1 1 Link to comment
