For a "white supremacist" it is. For a GOP candidate it is, too - we haven't seen anything like this for 60 years. I mean, another explanation is maybe you've been gaslit by the press, but that's a "conspiracy

Isn't it amazing when a "white supremacist" improves his vote share of _every_ minority demographic (getting the highest share of GOP minority vote since the 60s), and does worse with white men. A goddamn miracle. This is the

Reminds me of an old Soviet joke. The government made vodka more expensive, so son walks up to his alcoholic dad and says, "Gorbachev made vodka more expensive, dad, so you'll now drink less!" To which dad responds, "No,

I wonder if it's BMI per se, or the lack of exercise? While the two are correlated, they are not the same - you can be fat and muscular at the same time. And if it's just BMI, then through what mechanism it increases the risk.

The DNC had at least _half a dozen_ better candidates this time. They had better candidates last time, too. It's just that the establishment wants to be in control, so they put Biden in (and Clinton last time). If that's not obvio

But it is. International law is basically an illusion. It only works while participants agree - there's no way to enforce it because countries have sovereignty and as such they can do as they please if they really want to. Treaties are
