Right. JaMarcus Russell is not qualified to be an NFL QB. That break-dancing lady from Australia is not qualified to be on the Olympic break dancing team.

I just read about that the morning. Basically it was because there was no degree of difficulty adjustment. The rankings were based on sanctioned competitions, but the quality of the competitions varies widely. She was in the Oceania region, which isn't competitive so she won the tournament handily with very high scores.

It's like if college basketball teams were assessed solely on their record, so that a team could get a number 1 seed by playing (and pummelling) exclusively the weakest teams.

Not sure, but I think she used the first question as a prompt to give what was basically an “opening statement” - if you will. They weren’t allowed to give an opening statement, so she snuck one in there. She coulda, shoulda worked in a bit more of a direct answer to the question, in and amongst said opening statement - would have been better. But I is what it is.

I was also a little worried after the first few minutes. She was very clearly nervous AF.

There were opportunities for her to BUST his ass early that she didn’t take. I do not agree with her strategists who are clearly coaching her to concede the economy is bad. It’s not, and the numbers back that up. There are ways to craft an argument which would acknowledge that there is work to do while highlighting what has already been done.

And tariffs. My god this guy is a buffoon. I was really hoping she would talk about the effect his tariffs had on the farming industry in particular and the government bail outs that ensued. Tell people how the retaliatory efforts from China reduced U.S. agricultural exports by 27 billion from mid 2018 when the tariffs were imposed to the end of 2019. And then make sure you highlight how the bail out funds were distributed in a partisan manner. If your county voted red for Trump you got your money first.

These people have no business anywhere near the White House. I’m so glad she calmed down and spanked his ass!
 
I really wanted for her to school him on what standing means bc he clearly didn't.

My lord that would've been the best probably behind the "Tim and I own guns so fuck all the way off on that BS" and "I was in the capital on J6 while you were in the bunker watching the insurrection you created"
 
Did anyone else catch something Trump did/said during his close? Look at what he's saying starting at about 0:45 in the link below. He's been squinting at the camera for the whole close, and then he says, "we can't sacrifice our country based on bad vision." Bad vision? Did he just insert what he was currently experiencing into his discussion? And isn't that a symptom of dementia?
