If they say Trump's winning, it's a trick to make Democrats think it's lost and stay home. If they say Trump's losing, it's a trick to make Democrats think they've won and stay home.

Maybe sometimes people just want to share opinions about what's going on. We should vote regardless, but not everything is a trick.

This was one of the many frustrating things about his Presidency. So many times he was reporting on what "someone" was saying was going on in the government. Motherfucker, you've got a big slice of the government working for you. Why don't you find out from them what's going on?

Yeah, I'd say an online poll is about as accurate a pulse of the people's opinions as a YouTube comment section.

Was it by any chance an online poll?

I don't know why I didn't realize before today that it could have been Barron Trump!

Convicted on appeal is a foreign (literally) concept to me as an American, so I had trouble parsing the headline.

He was acquitted by a lower court, so the prosecution appealed and got a conviction from the appeals court.

You mean like they could try to get leftists to vote for Jill Stein or write in Che Gueverra instead? I think they already do that, but not through right wing influencers, if you know what I mean.

This is now stale, but my greater point was that it is possible to exaggerate how brutal these procedures are in an effort to mislead. Groups like this will use scary language like amputation and mutilation, but they never refer to ovo-hystorectomy in the same way.

The lesser point was that I agree that spaying and neutering is a good thing. Part of that is the benefit to the animal. But none of these surgeries traumatize the animal for life, either. Social costs of ear cropping? Really? Is there no social cost to having no balls?

I bought a 3D TV and liked watching movies on it. Agree that being shot in 3D is better, but anything released in 3D in theaters was good enough.

I don't know why they died. Too bad. Did streaming kill 3D perhaps?

That is one of the messages, but you missed the main point. Native English speakers are ripped Chads, and non-natives are wimpy girly-men.
