@ZaidJilani I think the idea is that if a YIMBY can win in San Francisco, that is good news, because that city has more lefty hostility to YIMBY-ism than many other cities. Doesn't seem like the logical inconsistency you are making it out to be.
@damintoell@Patterico JD Vance would run cover for him on the Sunday morning shows, explaining why the 22nd amendment can't bar him from seeking 3rd term. Conservative pundits will coalesce, remarking that JD is "making some good points."
@damintoell@Patterico I also think people haven't fully thought through the "he can't run again" thing. If he wants to run, he will. Red states will put him on the ballot. Their Supreme Courts will have to deal with the legal challenges. SCOTUS will delay until after election day.
@tuquoque3@EsotericCD Even in a very blue state like California, with very blue state problems, it’s quite possible to overstate the importance of state and local politics on where you choose to live. These people that expect everyone to just pack up and move after an election are weird nerds
@goodkarmadude If you have not already, you should listen to the History of English podcast by Kevin Stroud. The first several episodes go through the history of all indo-European languages and it was so amazing. My family thinks I’m unwell.
@jbarro Even with market conditions being suboptimal right now, my basic mutual fund provided through my employer has gained significantly since I opened it 5 years ago.
Solana lost about 95% of its value in a little over a year.
@EsotericCD@DrewSav For example, I remember you telling everyone you voted for Mark Kirk, and then later said you didn’t (too demonstrate principles), and it turned out you lied about it. But I’m guessing you wouldn’t prefer that one, either.
@EsotericCD I find it odd that people are so incredulous that he is just a true racist and white nationalist. Why is it so hard to believe when he tells us what he is? And what would it take to believe someone is truly racist?
