President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

[PEPPERJAX]

No, I don't ....

..... but I would like to fill AOC's void with my D.

Gold brotha!

No, I don't ....

..... but I would like to fill AOC's void with my D.

I think she is seen as the defacto future and connection to the younger generation in the D party.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

As much as I hate taking up for a blowhard like Majors, you're mistaken in this example

Hey!
Nobody talks about Majors like that!

LOL.

Nah, I'm sure Fox News would love that though. They love to talk about her. She can be entertaining at times. That's about it.

 

[EasternVol]

Yeah, the social justice christ is everywhere

Like in the Bible?

 

[PEPPERJAX]

I think she is seen as the defacto future and connection to the younger generation in the D party.

The younger D party she appeals to will be all grown up when the future arrives. Her shelf life will be similar to a fidget spinner or POGS. Cool for a few years and that is about it.

Chief is capitalized.

Your welcome

Actually, it's only capitalized when part of a formal title and/or preceding a name.

 

[GordonC]

Edit: I'm mistaken. When quoting someone's words, the commas are outside of the quotes. His wasn't a quote of speech

Periods and commas always go inside closing quotation marks (AP and MLA). @Dink is correct on this. @McDad It's because of the size of the . and the , in early American presses. And the rule is only in American English.

Unless either of you are from across the pond, it is highly likely you are mistaken.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Trust @GordonC , he is an educator.

probably either way on that because he's technically using it as your title as a noun of direct address

This is the key right herruh

Be serious, here.
She has a large following for a Rep. She has a reddit sub dedicated to her. A thread here.

She is dynamic and garners a lot of attention. I don't think her views align with the majority of people in the party. But as the old guard ages out, you have to think she has the inside track, right?

Since when has Trump purported to be a free-market conservative? How is this position of any surprise to a guy who spends a bunch of time reading/posting on a political subforum?

There are caps in the NFL, that does not mean there is no free market system. Caps are necessary to keep a level playing field else you want to see the same rich team with the richest boosters in the playoffs year after year?



AI Overview

In the NFL, salary caps are a collectively bargained limit on how much each team can spend on player salaries,
according to the Patriots.com and the North Texas Daily. They were created to limit financial risk, preserve the financial integrity of the league, and promote parity between teams. However, salary caps do not mean there is no free market in the NFL.
Here's a breakdown

• Impact on the market: The salary cap limits the total amount teams can spend, but it doesn't dictate how individual players are paid within that limit.
• Player Choice: Players are still free to negotiate with any team, and teams can still compete for player talent through contract offers.
• Competitive Balance: The salary cap aims to prevent wealthy teams from dominating the market by signing all the top players, thus fostering competitive balance across the league.
• Player Compensation: Salary caps can restrict the earning potential of players, particularly elite athletes whose market value may exceed the cap limit.
• Impact of Increased Cap: When the salary cap increases, it can lead to increased competition in free agency as teams have more money to spend.

In essence, while the salary cap imposes a spending limit, a form of a free market still exists, with teams competing for players and players choosing where they want to play, albeit within those established financial boundaries

Idk.
Her 15 minutes of fame should have expired by now.

If I had gone with "Chief Tries-Too-Hard," it would have been more certain.

Time for some evolution then.

Viva le Commas outside quotation marks!

Well

Pogs and fidget spinners lasted a little while longer than 15 minutes too.

Unfortunately most Republicans in Congress are MAGA and almost all those who aren't will vote per iTrump's demands, so we've got Democrats vs MAGA.

There's probably at least some truth this observation. I was mostly just talking in general. I've said it before but the vast majority of the people that got Trump elected wouldn't be caught dead in a MAGA hat. Moreover the insistence by a good chunk of the Left that anything right of themselves is dedicated MAGA is absolutely to their detriment.

or "Chief Glass Houses and All"
also well did

Personally, one of my favorite pastimes is being corrected incorrectly.

Glad you caught that.

May be.

If it isnt her, like @BowlBrother85, I don't see anyone stepping up.

Or used as a name, like Chavis.
