Yeah, it's something I have a hard time reconciling too. Normally I can separate the art from the artist, and I really want to like Cena, but he's really on the wrong side of history regarding China, the same way Charles Lindbergh was with the Nazis.
You know, Jimmy Carter is a pillar of competency in comparison to what is happening in the White House today. I guess one could say that his only achievement was rehabilitating Carter and sparing him from the moniker of "Worst Post-War President".
“The only thing we have to fear is...fear itself." - Franklin Delano Roosevelt
“You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.” - Abraham Lincoln
“My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” - John F Kennedy
“It is time for us to do what we have been doing. And that time is every day.” - Kamila Harris
All that shouts about "who gets to COUNT the vote" makes Biden sound like a real MAGA-head. I mean, I thought the idea that elections officials could manipulate vote counts was just rightwingnut paranoia... at least, that's all I've heard from Democrats and the media for more than a year (that is, after they gave up claiming that just that thing is how Stacey Abrams got robbed of her election and how Trump won the White House...).
Harris is a vacuous, babbling idiot. She opens her gob and nothing but nonsense comes out. Her speech doesn’t even have the benefit of being controversial, vulgar, bitter, or abusive. It’s fluff devoid of substance.
As an early Boomer, I have to disagree a bit. Make the rule that they cannot serve as President past their 75th birthday. I am still, I think, intellectually sound, but in many ways I have lost a half step or so. And it's not ill health or dementia. It's just the machinery wearing down I think. If we want a good combination of ability and experience I think only serving until 75 is a good idea.
How do I make a donation? I'm already a paid monthly subscriber.
Agree. JT needs a donate button.
Substack doesn't offer that. Yet...
Can't you add something to your website and point folks there?
This is my only website right now. I need to figure out a way to let you guys give me more money!
Just throw one of these in your bio (https://ko-fi.com/) - virtual "tip jar", like an e-thot only for 'e-thoughts...'
Hmmmmm...

I have trouble watching John Cena after his apology to the CCP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XI2IkPNteO4

Yeah, and James Gunn has said stupid stuff, and probably everybody else on the show. Ima just live my life.

Whenever politicians respond with word salad, it seems like there are only two flavors:
(1) Miss South Carolina 2017: 90 secs of Reeeeal Dumb
They have no idea what they're talking about but drop a few buzz words and "suchas" and "US Americans" without shame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSQVVmXbeeE
(2) Governor from Best Little Whorehouse in Texas: Does the Sidestep
"What the hell did he just say?" "Same as usual. Not a damned thing." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AALREbJZEZk
Kamala's pretty much Miss SC, all the time.

Ok, I feel better. (For now.)
