Get away from the wife, go ride around in a cart and try to hit balls into a hole 400 yards away and drink beer. The worse you do, the more beer you drink, and the longer you stay away from the wife. Why would anyone want to be good at golf is beyond me. Plus the more times you have to hit the ball, the less cost per stroke.

Man... if your goal is finding ways to get away from your wife, and stay away as long as possible, maybe you need to get out of that marriage.

I really trust Trump on financial matters as far as i can throw him. he has a history of changing gears when it benefits him. The Trump U stuff shows he'll do whatever it takes to do turn a buck, say whatever he has to say. This is being done for a reason.

Serious question. I have job opportunities in Clarke County GA, Houston County GA, and Gwinnett County GA. Which of these would yall think would be the best to live for a young buck like myself?

you mean temper tantrum because they didn't get their way? there is reason to protest when human rights are violated, this is a tantrum.

My cousin is one of them. I asked her why she wasn't this mad last summer or on Election Day.

Met with an eyeroll and "we didn't think he'd win..."

I doubt that any of the people protesting voted for Trump. Too me, yesterday's demonstrations were akin to the tea party rallies that began about a year into Obama's first term with the chief difference being that most of those people waited until Obama actually did something they disagreed with before taking to the streets.

I think a lot of it is that they are a segment of the population that just likes the feeling of being "heard". They like the attention for lack of a better phrase. I think growing up on social media influenced that.

It's all anecdotal, but I always hear and see them reference "being a part of history." I think it started with the election of Obama and continued to things like the gay marriage ruling, BLM protests, etc. They're hooked on that feeling. It's backed up by an education system that semi-worships protest movements in many history classes.

I'm still building my thoughts around it but that's where I'm at. When you talk to them, a huge part have an incredibly shallow knowledge of what's going on. There are some that go beyond an emotional level, but they seem few and far between.

With such a divisive society people just want to be around other people that have a commonality. People require a sense of belonging and the comfort of not being alone in their beliefs.

Chuck Todd lecturing and being wildly snide to an admittedly goofy Kelkyanne Conway is falling right into what energized Trump's base.

4 years of this and he'll be reelected without breaking a sweat.

Its all just a PC cluster ***** between a president that literally said grab their you know what and the reactionary left who have to protest to prove their worth. Pathetic all around.

Really is. I havent studied the presidents much but this had to be one of the worst elections in recent history.

Well said, man.

Every month I just grow more and more libertarian.

I know it's usually perceived as "lazy politics" but I'll be damned if it doesn't sound better to me.
