  1. Vivek is such a total sleazeball. But he has no chance to be nominated.
  2. I suppose recreational cannabis is competition to the liquor elite here. Can't be having competition, can we?
  3. An interesting premise (a love affair between the Latino-ish son of a U.S. woman president and a comely British prince) gets played as a light engaging family friendly soap opera. It's no must see but it's a fun see.
  4. Yes. The way he accelerated Covid vaccine production and rollout. His base hates that, but it was very good.
  5. Yeah. White people's problems. Looking for things to be offended about. They're not shooting us. That's a good day.
  6. Am I'm the Emperor of San Francisco.
  7. He made a hard decision about what is best for all the people. That's what good presidents do. It's impossible to please everyone on every issue and action.
  8. Will he be joining the picketing workers? I doubt he would, but if he does, even a broken clock is right twice a day. All I've heard from him so far about the strike is cynical fear mongering against the adoption of electric vehicles.
  9. Of course it doesn't. I don't think we need Brit-centric usage police on this forum. I'm not saying you should use Americanisms. Just that sometimes I choose to.
  10. It's an origin theory. I give it credence as Yiddish has had a massive influence on American English.
  11. I get it. You're against Biden. I find your attacks cheap and weak.
  12. If you literally translate "where the sun don't shine" to Thai, do Thais understand that we're talking about buttholes?
  13. It means exactly the same thing as couldn't care less in actual usage. If you can't process that that language has oddities, I could care less.
  14. First time. It's obviously a campaign event. What's your problem with a campaign event? Again it's not only about Michigan but yes Michigan is a very important swing state. Hillary Clinton made the fatal mistake of not doing enough to win Wisconsin. No democrat is ever likely to make that kind of mistake again.
  15. I must be out of my mind then.
  16. Yes, I did mean Newsom. He's the only one that would meet the description of star. I'm ignoring the silly Michelle Obama is going to run stuff. That's almost all from republicans.
  17. No. You know that too. Why the play dumb charade? Americanism Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster Maybe Brits don't get sarcasm? ‘Could Care Less’ Versus ‘Couldn’t Care Less’ - Quick and Dirty Tips
  18. Uncle Joe has a long history of being pro union and pro workers rights. Of course he wants the votes of union members and workers nationally. It would be weird if he didn't. He make a great contrast to tax cuts for the rich, fake populist, demagogic grifter Mr. Trump.
  19. It's an Americanism is all. I grew up using it and I like it.
  20. So Meestur, you say you're a Thai national? So where are you REALLY from, Meestur?
  21. No. I'm just being true to authentic Americanisms. If you don't like it, I could care less.
  22. I don't take any such polls seriously at this very early stage. We don't even know who is going to be nominated. Trump is under indictment on 91 felony charges. While most of those won't be resolved before the election, some will, and his odds of acquittal on all charges is very very remote. How will non maga facist republicans and independents react to a candidate headed to prison that can't even vote. Also, Trump clearly is very unhealthy and has brain processing problems. His brain farts get more scharty on a daily basis. Biden on the other hand, unfairly labelled as having dementia without any medical evidence, when such a case could easily be made even more so for Trump, is also at an early stage of the nomination process. He might be bluffing a run to avoid being a premature lame duck. He might have a health crisis. There is still PLENTY of time for a democratic STAR with landslide potential to get the nomination instead. Caring about polls at this stage is purely inside the beltway type stuff.
