@jgfraser76 @Milajoy Did you get the answer to your question?

@KenCook_KC @Milajoy What am I missing? Why will Tom Massie be out.

The next Congress WILL NOT have... Al Green Jasmine Crockett Dan Crenshaw Eric Swalwell Mitch McConnell Nancy Pelosi Don Bacon Jerry Nadler Bill Cassidy. It's called draining the swamp.

I am going to explain this as simply as I can for those that still don't understand. You do not get the results you got in Indiana, Louisiana, and Kentucky with a sitting President in the low 30s approval rating. Therefore, the polls are fake. The reality shows Trump's approval is very high. What the final number is no one knows because the polls are so fake anymore, but it's certainly not in the 30s. The results tell you that in flashing neon letters. Everyone in power that believed the polls should immediately do a gut check and change course because the media siren polls are driving you all into the rocks.

This should make you question every single poll you've seen recently showing President Trump at an all-time low approval rating. Because what happened tonight would not have happened if those polls were accurate. Once again, like they have for the last 12 years, the polls are underestimating Trump.

@RandyGoat I hated Massie and Randy Paul for a LONG time because I cannot stand pious poseurs who vote for Rutabaga continuing resolutions, but suddenly discover "principles" to vote again Trump. Pure evil spooge.

@Pro__Trading Rich Baris should join Ann Seltzer in retirement.

When every other poll was favoring Gallrein this guy was pushing an outlier poll showing Massie winning. How damaging is this to Rich Baris' future in the polling industry?

MAGA is so “dead” and Trump is so “irrelevant” that Thomas Massie’s last-ditch effort to save his career is to try to deceive MAGA into thinking he’s endorsed by Trump.

Political cartoons of that day could get quite cerebal. The one below refers to arch nemesis George McClellan who was running against him in the 1864 campaign but got off to a slow start with regard to campaigning. Of course a few years ago, when McClellan was the top Union general, Lincoln had to finally relieve him due to the fact he always got off to slow starts in battles. The prevailing excuse McClellan gave was that he had to "entrench" his army to defend against "superior forces", usually overstated, and then accusing Lincoln of never giving enough reinforcements.

Magnificent auction of mostly Lincoln and other 1860 election candidates items, likely never see the like again. historical.ha.com/c/search/resul…

Rich Baris' credibility and reputation are about to be flushed down the toilet after tonight.

@Realglobalpol2 @Pro__Trading Was Rich Baris predicting a Massie victory? I haven't even looked at his account in months now.

@Pro__Trading Rich Baris' career should be over along with Massie's after tonight.

Massie is toast. He's under performing in the areas he had to dominate. To be honest, this isn't even looking like a close race.

@Sunchasegirl @0xRarest Everybody should plan.

@KenCook_KC @0xRarest Just stop. My mother was widowed at 36 with 5 kids. My dad was 46 and died of cancer when treatments lacked. Planning? Are you joking

This 68 year old lady down the street has been collecting Social Security for 6 years. Gets $1,840 a month. Her Medicare supplement and property taxes eat $1,420 of it. She’s now working 20 hours a week at Walmart just to buy groceries and keep the lights on. She paid into the system for 43 years. They keep telling her it’s “supposed to be enough.”

If you believe everyone who disagrees with you is a paid Israeli operative, you are an antisemite. Sorry to break it to you.

@Lance_in_DC @0xRarest We were told in the 1980s that pensions were ending. We need to stop being victims and start saving.

@KenCook_KC @0xRarest But we were also told we’d have defined benefit pensions from our employers. And that didn’t happen.

@Lance_in_DC @Bonzombiekitty @0xRarest There are plenty of retirement vehicles available besides the 401k.

@KenCook_KC @Bonzombiekitty @0xRarest The vast majority of employers don’t even offer 401ks. You’re living a privileged life and projecting that on to everyone else. Our leaders screwed us when they let our employment base go offshore.

@DancingEddie_ It is maddening. Over the years, there have been many complete washouts on summer holiday weekends in the Northeast. Come Tuesday, it's 80 and sunny!

nyc has had maybe the worst weather year it’s ever had mondays and tuesdays have consistently been excellent, but weekends have consistently been destroyed by terrible weather 70s-90s today, while Memorial Day weekend is rained out and cold horrendous

@MurrayHillGuy1 I'm actually convinced that they are making WW2 documentaries faster than I can watch them. It must be similar to how the women feel about Hallmark Christmas movies.

If you’re a boomer it’s time to pick your retirement crisis: 1. Golf 4 times a week 2. Becoming insanely political on Facebook 3. Get a RV you use twice a year 4. Only living your life for your grandkids 5. Randomly getting into WWII documentaries 6. Buying a Corvette at 62 7. Tell all the young people at work to stop working so hard 8. “Weed is so cool bro” 9. Walking around Costco for fun every Saturday 10. Obsessing over your lawn 11. Retiring then immediately getting another job a month later 12. Acting 25 again and also going out with 25 year old women 13. Pickleball injury, done for career 14.Watching Fox/CNN for 9 hours straight 15. Telling everyone how cheap houses used to

Pork or beef brisket with hot BBQ sauce and hot links (sliced hot sausage) seems to be the general consensus but it was never defined in the movie. Based on Sheriff Buford T Justice's experience, it evidently makes you run to the bathroom. So he probably shouldn't have ordered it if he was in such a damn rush!

@KenCook_KC @TheStingisBack Still not sure what was supposed to be on the original. Guessing some kind of spicy BBQ.

Smokey and the Bandit turns 49 today. If it weren’t for a space saga from a galaxy far, far away, it would’ve been '77’s biggest hit. Burt Reynolds starred, but Jackie Gleason flat-out steals the movie. Now, gimme a diablo sandwich and a Dr Pepper, ’cause I’m in a goddamn hurry.

@heavensbvnny Well if you can't get drunk at work anymore, you have to do it somewhere!

Why do people in movies go to bars after getting fired? That's the most expensive place to get drunk.

@shopitus @ChloesPlanet It's the only bread I can eat that doesn't make me bloat and put on weight. I use it to make meat & cheese sandwiches. I pay $12 a loaf to a local farm that bakes it. I remember when that same loaf would cost $6-7. One of these days, I'm going to have to start making it myself.

@ChloesPlanet You get the hang of it after a few tries.

Is making sourdough bread worth the effort? I like eating it, but it seems kinda hard

@SoDimensional @LarryWild2028 Thanks for clarifying, I read "Cackles" wrongly as "Cankles". I thought for a minute they were thinking of trotting that old war horse out one more time!

@KenCook_KC @LarryWild2028 Larry calls Kamala "Cackles" for obvious reasons. "Cankles" is Hillary.

Not a poll guy, but FWIW, new Democracy Institute poll shows JD Vance tied with Cackles, beating Gruesome; Rubio loses to Cackles; and DeSantis loses badly to everyone.
