Lindsey Graham on Trump:
“He’s a race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot. He doesn’t represent my party. He doesn’t represent the values that the men and women who wear the uniform are fighting for”
(2015)
@jaketapper It's been far less discussed than Biden's situation, yet you still felt it was important to write the Biden book. Are you actively investigating the situation with Mitch?
@chase_lanford@GunnelsWarren What is your reaction to the data: longer life expectancy, fewer infant deaths, etc? If people can't receive care until it's too late, that data should look different, right?
@ChinaPoliSci@actingliketommy Ok, maybe just maybe, there is a benefit in actually watching the clip before you comment. Then you would realize he pretty clearly covered that.
I could be wrong though. You may still not realize it.
@MichaelSalfino@Acyn It also ignores the fact that MAGA seems totally fine with the current Administration nationalizing privately and publicly held enterprises. Maybe they don't understand what socialism is.
@Solonoch55@ClutchFantasy A HC who wants to run the ball, an OL that may be the position of strength on the offense, lack of TE/WR that would dominate targets, and RB who just signed, is explosive w/ the ball, and a great route runner. Screams RB volume/touches to me
Mitch McConnell is actually the best Metaphor for, and representation of, America and our political system. He spent almost a century making the world a better place for only himself and his friends, married an immigrant while working tirelessly against other immigrants, manipulated the system to increase his power only to be usurped & made impotent by someone even more unethical, unscrupulous and power hungry. Then when the system is finally done with him, they keep his dead body on life support just to use him for one more power move until finally allowing him sweet sweet death while his wife flees the country and his children go into hiding. And when it's all said and done, he'll be best remembered for a meme that made him into a turtle. America.
@JackSpa65771628@randomnigerian_@SpartanBengal@Sighwyna@BillRussellNBA Yes, capable of what was shown in the video we are reacting to. So...again, repeating myself, and you making points that are either factually incorrect, irrelevant, or just further prove my point.
Reading comprehension doesn't seem to be your strength.
Muting.
@JackSpa65771628@randomnigerian_@SpartanBengal@Sighwyna@BillRussellNBA Show me in the video we are discussing, or anywhere in the conversation, where defensive ability or basketball IQ is being debated. Or how era adjustments for modern medicine, nutrition or fitness would impact Russell as a player.
Irrelevsnt, exhausting strawman argument. ✌️
@JackSpa65771628@randomnigerian_@SpartanBengal@Sighwyna@BillRussellNBA Dwight listed 6'11" for much of his career. In 2019 NBA changed to strict/true measurement WITHOUT shoes and he measured 6'9.75".
Fractional difference in height was never the point. Point: BR was great, but many today same size capable of that. Not a knock, just advancement
@JackSpa65771628@SpartanBengal@Sighwyna@BillRussellNBA Didnt realize we were doing Price is Right
All within ~ 1in of each other in height. Howard tallest, then Russell, then LJ. Essentially all the same height.
Point wasn't about fractions of inch/exact modern day player height comps. Didn't realize that's what you're doing
@JackSpa65771628@randomnigerian_@SpartanBengal@Sighwyna@BillRussellNBA His basketball reference page says 6-10 (they round) and 208 cm. If you look up 2019 true height, which is the year they changed to more strict measurements you'll see reporting from Shams and others on player height adjustments.
@JackSpa65771628@SpartanBengal@Sighwyna@BillRussellNBA That's a different argument.
The point is someone said only 2 people in the league could do what BR did in the video. I strongly disagree.
Players today are objectively bigger and more athletic on average.
All data supports that. Not much more I can say.
