I heard Trump say he wants $12-$13/hr minimum wage. That might help.
He might do it. Obama and Biden didn't even bring it up. The new left doesn't give a ---- about the poor. It took Bernie to do that, and what happened? He was lucky he didn't end up like JFK, jr.
If Trump raises the minimum wage what could dems run on?

Trump is not going to permit the mid-term elections. How could he?

"Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the NFL will not be "able to sleep at night" over its decision to pick Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny as the 2026 halftime performer.
"Well, they suck, and we'll win, and God will bless us, and we'll stand and be proud of ourselves at the end of the day, and they won't be able to sleep at night because they don't know what they believe, and they're so weak, we'll fix it," Noem told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson on Friday."

Apparently MAGA world is floating the idea of a 'counter-halftime show' featuring Creed.

@#14 ... Trumpers hiding from this thread ...
Yeah, the absence of the apparent Jeff alias seems to be most pronounced this evening. Good to see that I may not be the only one who noticed that absence.
Does it coincide with Pres Trump's lack of public appearances since last Tuesday?
Wish I knew. It might be interesting to see the explanation for their possible eventual return?

The NFL is in it for the money.
Bad Bunny is a very popular artist.
Which is likely why the NFL chose him.
What does the Trump administration have against Capitalism?

But, so long as we seem to be on the topic of sports, let's move to passion.
Yeah, sports fans have a passion for the teams they like.
But passions taken more widely ...
Positive passions: hope, aspiration, a vision of a better life for all
Negative passions: anger, hatred, resentment, the urge to dominate
It seems to be easier to motivate people with negative passions, than it is with positive passions.
As Pres Trump seems to have discovered.

Explains the US Ryder Cup fans. They didn't support their team, just yelled insults at the other team.

... Sometimes I try to do things and it just don't turn out the way I want it to And I get real frustrated and it's like, I take my time and I try real hard But no matter what I do, no matter what I try it never works out It's like I concentrate on it real hard but it never works out It's like, I need some time to figure these things out But there's always someone there going "Hey, Mike, you know, we've been noticing you've been having a lot of problems, lately, you know" "And like, maybe you should talk about it, you'll feel a lot better" And I go, "No, it's okay, I'm having some problems, I'll figure it out myself" "Just leave me alone, I'll figure it out" And they go, "Why don't you talk about it? You'll feel a lot better" And I go, "No, I don't want to. Just leave me alone, I'll figure it out myself" And they keep on bugging me And it builds up inside, it builds up inside ...

^ Lotta fancy words for "Haters Gonna Hate." Not that you're wrong, of course! Republicans have taken Hate and made it their political touchstone.
Every Republican here can name three out-groups they hate: Immigrants, Trans, Muslims.

#18, 19, 23 ... Yep. It's easier to be against something than it is to be for something.
Classically humble TV characters like Andy Griffith or Mister Rogers are seen as weak in these days of social media and podcasts and "owning" the libs. Empathy and compassion are for wussies. Just ask Elon Musk or Charlie Kirk. Nowadays rage is all the rage.
If you're a shallow, hateful person, unwilling to be vulnerable and considerate of others in your short life on earth, you can convince yourself that rudeness equals strength. But it's a sad, delusional way to live, and it's got America and a pickle.

Mr. Rogers wouldn't be allowed in Drinky Pete's Military. Bob Ross would be booted out.

Of course, Kristi Noem still thinks that Puerto Rico is a foreign country and that Bod Bunny will be here illegally...

So, all that matters is the top .01%
As long as they are happy that is all that matters.
Signed the gop and trumpers.
