Ahh 4D chess Are you trying to say we don’t REALLY need to worry about a coming civil war because we already are in one? Geeee thanks Joe 1 Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 5 hours ago, Dr. Strangelove said: But, in all honesty, the chances of a Civil War are 0% for a variety of reasons. If we can agree to use lower cap civil war -- partisan opposition intense enough to spur physical face-offs and violence for months or years -- I'd put it at a solid 22%. That's a reasonable number based on my hunch that scenarios like J6 and the Gaza protests could be made broader and nastier with the right players stoking the fires. Not so hard to imagine. The apathetic majority will still be able to watch this on TV and cluck about it on Facebook. I think it's pretty generous of me to give things a 78% chance of not escalating. Since 2015 I've been quite wrong about what could never happen in the United States. What we are considering status quo in 2024 is real boil-the-frog s#!t. Link to comment

I would agree with everything you just said yet wouldn’t call it a civil war. I would also suggest that the left will go bats#!t crazy upon the off chance Trump actually wins and the new protests by the Left will be deadlier and more costly than the BLM summer of madness. 4 minutes ago, Guy Chamberlin said: No. Not at all.

No civil war love for the people who have promised a civil war if Trump isn't elected? Having already proved their willingness? Sure about that? And no blame on Trump should he execute the vengeance he's promised? Would standing against Trump be madness, or just the opposite? Could have sworn you agreed the man was unhinged. Oh ok. Sorry. Your carefully worded post makes it sound so. The part where I'm clearly worried and you're clearly not? Link to comment
teachercd Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Should have posted it here It is official on my site. The line is now even money. Each month (or so) the gambling line has changed in favor of JB. It is not -115 each. And still +3000 for RFKjr 2 Link to comment

Say what you will about Trump, he is never fazed by his improv public performances and neither are his supporters. 1 Link to comment

I found it funny that in the same day, he first ridicules Biden because he "has to use a teleprompter"....only to go to the net rally and has to stop his speech because he couldn't see his teleprompter. Typical Trump. 1 1 Link to comment
teachercd Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 A vegan cafe...in Wisconsin? A bank gave a small business loan for that idea? I know they love cheese but I can't imagine vegan cheese curds are all that popular. 2 2 1 Link to comment
teachercd Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Might as well put this hear. I used to watch Stern when he was on E all the time in college. LOVED his show and I have always thought he was one of the best interviewers ever, I know he will sometimes talk over the guest a bit but that happens. Now I will just catch some highlights of his shows here and there. And no, I have not listened to it yet. First I have to pick which movie I am showing in class today. Rocky IV? I mean, we are talking about the Cold War. 1 Link to comment

What I always thought is that he was always willing to ask the question that so many other people want to ask but are scared to do so....and he would do it in a way that the person would actually answer and not be offended.
