🚨🇺🇸☝️#THE BEST — Rory McIlroy gives high praise to America when asked his impressions of the country: “Everyone wanted to make it in America. It's the land of opportunity. And I still believe it's the best country in the world, and if you come here and work hard and dedicate yourself, you can be or do whatever you want.
I am unbelievably grateful and lucky that I got to come to America early on. I think success is celebrated here. I think there's a wonderful sense of work ethic. And yeah, I live here. My wife is American. My daughter is American. I have a lot of affinity towards this country, and I think everyone that lives here should have that same affinity because it is, it's a wonderful, it is a wonderful place.” @TrackingRory
"I think that is more of where the angst is coming from is that there isn't this grace period" 😬
- @Jsirles71 compares JJ McCarthy's situation to Josh Allen's in his rookie season
It is still absolutely wild to me there are fans out there saying JJ McCarthy isn’t the answer.
After 1 bad week. In his second career start, behind a banged up offensive line.
We as a fanbase need to be patient. He is 22 years old. He has to DEVELOP.
I mean the data is available @colincowherd
He only trailed for 27 plays his senior year and by NCAA PR it was his top category 😂
And he went undefeated
This is one of the most important parts of Tucker Carlson’s speech and it got overlooked
American can’t afford to buy homes, Tucker says this is a National Emergency
“At some point the basic economics really matter. And they matter because not that it's bad that rich people are getting richer, it's bad that everyone else is getting poorer. And it's especially bad the young people can't afford homes.
Let me just put a very precise point on this. If you want a measure of how your economy is doing, I personally favor eliminating GDP as a measure. I don't even know what that is. It's clearly not relevant.
— My measure is really simple. I got a bunch of kids. Can they afford houses with full time jobs at like 27, 28? And the answer is no way. And the answer is that 35 year olds with really good jobs can't afford a house unless they stretch and go deep into debt. And I just think that's a total disaster. That's a complete disaster. Why?
Two reasons:
- One, if people don't own things, they don't feel ownership of the country they're in. And the country gets super volatile because people feel like they've got nothing to lose. When you have a lawn, trust me, you're thinking long term.
- Second, it's really hard to have a family without a house. It is. It's like super fun to live in an apartment. If you know there's like a bar downstairs, you're in a cool neighborhood. I'm in East Village. It's so cool. Try to have three kids. You're not going to have three kids there. You can. Nobody wants to raise their kids in that neighborhood. Nobody wants to raise their kids in an apartment. People do it. People, they have to. Nobody wants to. People want a little house. Not some McMansion, just a little normal house.
That is the actual American dream.
— But most people's parents can't afford to do that. — So that is a national emergency.
One of the reasons it's happening is because normal people with normal jobs no longer believe they can win in this system and that all the money is going to the worst people, and no one even stops to ask what the hell is going on. What I'm saying is that our leadership class should say something about it and should assign a moral value to it.
And if you're getting rich by loaning money to people at incredibly high interest rates, that's something you're gonna have to talk to God about. That is not good. That is not virtuous. That's disgusting”
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY in power seems to care about this
