@Scaramucci True on the substance of the Kennedy-Nixon debate, the first televised. While Nixon (from what i read) won the debate on its substance, Kennedy took the win on his looks, makeup and presentation style. All attributes of todays social media.
@engineers_feed@elonmusk This is what NASA should focus its attention on, and new propulsion. Most everything else, commercial enterprise will and have done better.
@VOMexico@three_cube Always been the case. We treat the war on drugs as a supply problem when it's actually a demand problem. Much easier to vilifie the supplier than the local buyers that vote.
@castroejavier@Scaramucci "In 1985, 85% of Congress had served in the military". Meaning, 85% of those in Congress had shared values, shared pain, shared losses and trauma. You are not likely to see that again in your lifetime or mine.
Joy Reid's entire career is built on a lie: that everything in America is about race.
I represent a majority-white district in suburban Houston. President Trump would have won it by 20 points.
I won it by 27.
Why?
Because voters judged me by my service, my values, and my record, not the color of my skin.
None of that has anything to do with race.
And that's what race-baiters like Joy Reid cannot stand.
Her worldview depends on minorities being victims, conservatives being villains, and America being irredeemably racist.
Women serving in office, mostly DNC, and many others fought for Title IX for decades. How did elected officials, the vast majority in the DNC, including women members tear it all apart. It would have be kinder to young woman to simply keep them out of competitive sports. Hypocritical idiots!
@Rainmaker1973 While I agree fertility rates are a global problem, on a national level, for the US at least, it's not a problem. At any time we choose, we can open the borders and be flooded with new residents of child bearing age. For other nations, in particular Japan, Korea and China, no.
@EmmetPeppers Most people struggle figuring out the tip at a restaurant, not that they can't do simple math (because if they can affort to eat out they should have a clue ) they are just too lazy to make the effort. Same for causation vs correlation. IMHO.
