    I'm going to be curious to see how things develop with Trump's cabinet. If the house flips in the midterms, there's no way that some of these folks--Carson, Zinke, Mnuchin, et al--are going to be viable with actual congressional oversight going on. The person I'm watching is Nikki Haley. She's not going to sacrifice her future prospects for Donald Trump, so I suspect that she'll continue to step carefully until she can make a principled exit, remaining in the good graces of the base and the party structure.

    He should have also ignored Xi's recent ascent to political immortality.

    Because being the shut-ins on the block worked so well from 2009-2016.

    Love the passive voice there. "Had been bought."

    You know women...they love to shop.

    where do you think you can "Stop a storm" or whatever jibberish you are spewing? i in no way have ever said hurricanes would stop but here you are, acting like i did
    You literally said paying the price for voting in the "dumb**** orange one"

    Did you misspeak? Are you backing off that now?

    So the empiracally-observable fact that women like to shop at a higher rate than men do gives what insight into this particular situation?

    I'm not sure... you said this:

    So as to the particular value of that generalization?

    But what you're agreeing with is "women love to shop," not "women enjoy shopping more than men do."

    Men like baseball more than women do =/= men like baseball

    Maybe I'm having trouble keeping up.

    It was Julio who said "women love to shop."

    Then it was sturg who said "well, they do."

    Then it was Julio who said "UMMMMMMMMM" as if something was perplexing
