  • A guy who has never held office anywhere, isn’t a Democrat, and believes the free market will fix climate change should be the Dem candidate? He’s not a serious option.

    I will admit I love his “Ellis Island” style immigration, but that would be immediately disqualifying for exactly the kind of centrist and never-Trumper people we need to win over.

    It doesn’t matter who you or I will vote for. People that understand the danger of Trump would vote for a ham sandwich. What matters is who swing voters and never-Trumpers will vote for.

    Most of them would never vote for anyone from California because that state is synonymous with the worst problems of the left. They would also never vote for Whitmer because she is a self described progressive (and let’s be honest, being a woman doesn’t help with more traditionally minded centrists).

    Jared Polis would be ideal, although I would bet unfortunately being gay and Jewish would hamper him. His type of politics is exactly what we need to appeal to those toying with the idea of Trump.






  • I used a convection toaster oven in the kitchen.

    That fried the circuits of 1/3 of the house. Some amateur electrician tied in several new circuits into the same kitchen breaker. They used undergauged wire on top of it.

    Cost us $6k to fix and that was a hell of a deal from some Covid - unemployed union electricians. They put in 3 breakers where there was one before. The electrician had a hell of a time tracking where all the lines came from. That included a 3ft fireball shooter ng out of the wall because a line was love when it shouldn’t have been.





  • American values? Can’t have that!

    Like the separation of church and state?

    Immigration? Come on in, we’ll worry about it later!

    That’s how 99% of the country got here. It’s what made (and still makes) this country great. Incorporating people from around the world is an American value.

    Trump is running again? Let’s do EVERYTHING and ANYTHING to stop him from campaigning!!

    What about the American value of respecting law and order by not supporting a convicted felon for president?

    Crime is getting worse? Let’s ease up on punishment! Crime isn’t getting worse.

    Crime is actually going down.

    Biological men want to compete with women in sports? Okay!

    Accepting those with different beliefs and respecting the way they choose to live their life is another American value.
