Lol. Typical blame the voters bs...and not blame the DNC for putting forth yet another horrible, corrupt candidate. A legit candidate would've beat Trump in a landslide.
As if you'd grant any Dem candidate "legit".

Mueller makes clear, for instance, that the Trump campaign not only knew that Russia was interested in helping it win the election but was happy to have that help.
LOL. I'm glad you got that one little excerpt from that long ass article written by one of the only true journalists in the entire world- which completely blew up Russia hoax to smithereens. So you read that one sentence and didn't read anything else I take it?

Again- that doesn't have to do with intelligence- that has everything to to with EGO and pettiness. You're talking about maybe the most arrogant, egotistical person in the world. He literally cannot help himself.

And the twitter spats and his mouth didn't lose him an election. A global health crisis emanating from China which cratered the US economy and left 200,000+ dead lost him the election. COVID never happens- Trump would've crushed Biden in a landslide.
I consider someone that can't control his ego and arrogance to the point of failure as stupid, but it really doesn't matter.
He lost to a slug like Biden of his own doing.  He has only himself to blame.

They had a couple of them. Tulsi would've wiped the floor with Trump imo. 

And DNC co-ordinated to torpedo Bernie- wasn't an all-out rigging like 2016- but it was still some very shady shit nonetheless.

In a way sure- but that pettiness and giant ego has also in part made him the success that he is. Trump has such an ego- my guess is he is going to run again in 2024. He is not going away in the night with grace.

Biden better push forth a progressive agenda and really change things in this country if he wants to win re-election. Judging by the names bandied about in his transition team and a potential cabinet- fat chance that happens. Looks like it'll be the same old cast of goons with some awful republicans thrown in and nothing will really change. And when more people are hurting financially and the status quo remains- Biden will be in real danger of losing 2024.

It's consistent with literally everything. Russia wanted and did try to influence the election to help Trump. He didn't mind, but there wasn't any sort of criminal collusion. That's the Mueller report. There was no hoax. It was real. In fact, the saddest part about it is we know beyond all doubt that foreign countries use social media as a propaganda effort to influence elections, but people would rather close their eyes and cry hoax instead of just living in reality.

And arguably it was his mouth that WON him the election 4 years ago.
This is exactly what won him the election. He shit all over the establishment GOP and Dems and hammered them all to bits. And the people of this country who are sick and tired of corrupt establishment politicians- loved it.

He ether'd Hilary in the debates in two instances. When the moderator brought up the "grab her by the p***" audio tape and Trump flipped it on Hillary by bringing 6 of the MANY Bill Clinton sexual assault accusers and sitting them in the front row and Trump said "what I said was words, I'm not proud, it was locker-room talk, Bill has said worse to me on the golf course, and Bill, but what Bill Clinton did was actions, actions are worse!" He flipped a grotesque negative against him and punted it to Hillary and put all that huge negative on her. Something that should've hurt him- didn't- and it actually might've hurt Hillary- because a lot of people question why she would stick by someone that is a flat out known sexual predator like Bill Clinton.

And then when Hillary said "it's a good thing someone with your temperament isn't President" and Trump goes, "yeah, cause you'd be in jail." He destroyed her right then and there, and it was all over.

And then his final political ad was a stroke of fake populist genius. He kept promising to "drain the swamp" bring manufacturing back, etc., etc., etc... and everybody should've known it was fake populist bs- the dude is a billionaire and grew up rich- he has nothing in common with the common man- he shits on gold toilets and owns sky-scrappers for f***sake.

You are delusional. That's all I know. You need to stop getting your news from MSNBC/CNN aka CIA Propaganda/DNC State TV bud.

Yup, she's a republican alright, a pro-choice republican that's for medicare for all and ending the bullshit 7 wars and drone bombings. Imagine that. LOL.

Dear Lord have mercy. You need help.

If you really think Russia spending $100,000 on some Facebook Ads had ANYTHING at all to do with Hillary Clinton- one of the most corrupt, unlikeable politicians in the HISTORY of this country- who hangs out with certifiable war criminals like Kissinger- who voted for the criminal, illegal Iraq war, pushed the Obama administration into the complete destruction of Libya & Syria- losing then you are the one not living in reality.

What Russia did was mf'ng CHILDS play. Like I said- our CIA actually RIGGED an election in Russia in the '90s. Not did a couple of social media ads and memes. Like actually had people on the ground in the country- actively working with Yeltsin and his security state goons to get him re-elected and steal an election.

It is a hoax. It didn't influence or affect jackshit. It is PATHETIC that people even say that. And the rest of the world LAUGHED their asses off at the dumb people in this country who claimed Russia "interfered" with US elections. And the US doesn't run social media ads in other countries. We flat out rig elections and topple governments. Google Timber Sycamore Syria. Google Russian 1996 election. Google Bolivia. Google Venezuela Juan Guaido CIA. THAT'S A HELL OF A LOT MORE THAN $100,000 WORTH OF FACEBOOK ADS.

To put it in caps land. It HAPPENED. To think it didn't happen you have to be STUPID. To think it isn't happening now you have to be BLIND. It doesn't mean the election was rigged. It means our population is willfully IGNORANT. Electing IDIOTS was Russia's goal, and it was SUCCESSFUL, which means they will keep TRYING.

LMAO. This is hilarious. You've bought hook line and sinker into this boogeyman DNC bullshit.

Do you HONESTLY THINK $100,000 in Facebook Ads titled the 2016 election. If you do- you are naive. As hell. It had a negligible affect at best.

Trump is many things, but he isn't an idiot. And if Russia was trying to "interfere" with the election- BIG LOL- it's goal would be not to help Trump, but to hurt Hillary. Why? Hillary is a war-hawk who was openly talking about expanding NATO and going to war with Russia before she ever ran for President. Gee, I wonder why they wouldn't want that? LOL.

This is entirely true.  Live by the sword, die by the sword, as they say.

I could stand to follow Badge's lead and lose some weight.

The COVID lockdowns didn't help me much. Normally you'd think that would give me tons of extra time to walk, hike, etc. But we got the puppy, and his early months he was NOT on board with walks. And I didn't want to put him in his crate to go take walks of my own, so I spent a couple months doing absolutely nothing. And of course with stress and everything, there was more eating and drinking going on than normal.

Starting to get better... The puppy now wants demands a walk first thing in the morning so we're typically going 2 miles every morning, and sometimes more. With the golf, I'm getting some range time and when I play a course I walk the course, so that's a little more. I feel like things are starting to get back, and I'm probably back to my pre-COVID weight.

But I could really stand to lose another 20-25 lbs.
Good luck, my friend.

I'm in a weird spot. I got a little bit bigger muscle-wise at my last job because of free gym membership. My new job had a gym, but less stuff, so less heavy weight. I think I lost a little weight with that, then I started running, which knocked down the weight a little more. 

Then the pandemic started. On the one hand, I've been good at running every other day and doing an abbreviated lift session on the off days (only so much one can do with limited gear and body weight), plus a long walk. It means my feet have been giving me issues. Sleep issues have also meant my running performance has dipped, which sucks. I'm a little worried I'm snacking too much. Have a sweet tooth I've been indulging too much. 

Your post inspired me to get on the scale (I don't believe in them for the most part), up 7-8 pounds, I think from the last time I looked I don't know how good or bad that is. Wish there was an easy body fat percentage test that was reliable. That's such a better number.
