Yes sir. Not sure how I missed it all these year, but not even sure 5 years ago it made as much sense as it does today. The antitrust thing is conflicting, but shows titans putting their hand on scale and makes u wonder how they currently support progressives. Fact is the whole thing is a Dem scam for votes, just like this foreign collusion and corporate support.
We can add this to your list of Dem sheep stupidity.
Funny how that works. Sadly, you’re correct but we need to go through the charade so it at least appears people in DC care. This story will get complete cover though because both sides do things like this.
Disagree. He’s down 30%. He’s down that bc 30% of the country would cheer Trump on while he was plowing their wife.
You can observe whatever you want about the proggies adopting many of the populist goals from the omaha platform. However, WJB was a Dem, and trust-busting TR was a Rep. That is an amazing series, esp the one on westinghouse, morgan, tesla, and edison, but i mustve missed the ep you are talking about.I watched the History channel with "The Men who Built America" and learned about the titans collaborating against WJB, the first progressive Prez candidate. Wonder what the Gates, Bezos, Zuckers, and Buffets of the world are thinking. Then get TDR in as VP as he was antitrust and to watch that backfire, Very interesting. Produced in 2012, Cuban even made a comment about his rivalry with Trump.
This election seems to parallel that era.

Edit: to ref your other post, i think theres a good reason you didnt know that all these years. Ha

Politics comes down to power and money - and usually power is all about getting more money. It's still all about do as I say not do as I do. The party that claims not to support big business has it's hands as deep in those pockets as anybody else. Just look at who attends the speeches the Clintons have given for years. Generally there's more of both money and power to be gained in times of change; for example, who gained financially over the table from globalism - it wasn't the many who loved cheep Chinese goods. You can bet the politicians who brokered the arrangement did very well on untraceable payments. Joe probably did better than Hunter, but it's not something we'll likely ever know.
I figured out Teddy Roosevelt initials quickly, but wasn't sure about Bryan. Didn't he run for Pres about as many times as Biden?Yes sir.

No man, I'm not meaning it that way at all. What I was trying to say, and apparently did a poor job of saying it, is that I am not surprised that was something you had never heard before.I am sure I have as I have a PS degree. Just do not get to memorize it for class like a history teacher.
At least you HAD some learned years LOL.Not sure and dont want any more red marks for my lack of memory. That whole era between Reconstruction and WW1 just was not that interesting to me during my learned years.. Industrialization, western expansion, Spanish American War and labor issues were about all I remember.
no clue as to how many times he was "in the hunt" for the nominationI figured out Teddy Roosevelt initials quickly, but wasn't sure about Bryan. Didn't he run for Pres about as many times as Biden?
