šŸ–• šŸŠ šŸ¤” A Continuing Round-Up of Trumpian Events šŸ–• šŸŠ šŸ¤”

Say youā€™re a football fan. On the one hand youā€™ve got a bunch of nerds giving you facts telling you why your team objectively sucks. On the other hand, youā€™ve got superfans and a squad of cheerleaders telling you why your team is great. Who are you going to listen to?

Sigh. Iā€™m getting a bit tired of his defenders calling him a genius and that everyone out to get him is a part of the deep state.

What is confusing to me on that is that the GOP keeps pointing to this and saying ā€œHunter Biden is unqualified for that positionā€¦something is fishy there!!!ā€

Uhā€¦doesnā€™t ā€œunqualified for the positionā€ apply to pretty much 99% of the executives in corporate america?! I mean reallyā€¦if we want to call Hunter Bidenā€™s being given a high paying job despite being unqualified for it, then we should be questioning the hiring practices of every child of some elite family name across the US.

FFS.

Such as, say, Rudy Giulianiā€™s son, who pulls in nearly six figures from his White House job where heā€™s the PR contact for visiting sports teams, which heā€™s ā€˜qualifiedā€™ for because he plays golf.

and while sticking to the WHā€¦Ivanka, Jared, and how many others? How is Sondlund even qualified to be an Ambassador to the EU?

Itā€™s just ludicrous to suggest Biden should be investigated for not being qualified. Other reasonsā€¦perhapsā€¦but not that one.

Not to mention pretty much everyone installed by the Trump administration. Incompetents are hired on purpose, in order to further degrade Big Bad Gubmint services.

The fact that Donaldā€™s brother is a seat warmer on the board of Bethesda should be a clear indication of how bad of a fit execs are for most companies. Heck, Bobby Kotick at Activision is another example. So singling out Hunter Biden is only going to demonstrate further that capitalism doesnā€™t promote excellence, so itā€™s more fuel for my arguments around the holiday dinner table. :smiling_imp:

Kotick at ActBlizz grinds my gears. Activision should have when they bought Blizz immediately promoted Morhaime to lead the entire thing.

ughā€¦i canā€™t even get started on this.

Totally valid. I was just surprised after having spent so much of the week listening to the testimony from the hearings. Once again fell prey to trying to match my internal bias to some kind of numerical indicator. My engineer side is very prone to wanting data, even when I know itā€™s ā€œdata.ā€

We never heard back on re-opening the Hillaryā€™s Emails investigation.

Smacks of desperation. It probably will work too.

A lot hinges on how the supreme court rules on the Tax Returns. Which will be any day nowā€¦
