@AFpost Why are we supposed to care about Hunter Biden's endorsement, again?

@batterystaple42 @KawirWir Fair, and in fact so are the others, but not in the pure-play sense that OpenAI/xAI are.

@batterystaple42 @KawirWir OpenAi's overall favorability is still 38%. Apple's is exactly 50%. None of the AI companies command majority favorability and all of the FAANG/MSFT companies do.

@CFR_org No one forced those cities to sign agreements with FIFA. Chicago didn't.

Russia has never been classified as a third-world country. Indeed, in the whole first-second-third world paradigm, the COMECON bloc was considered "second world." You can debate whether that classification still holds true (I highly doubt it; as @BrianMcDonaldIE observes, the World Bank classifies it as a high-income country now), and whether the whole paradigm ever made sense. But it was never a third world country in the postwar era.

@gallarway @lawindsor I agree. There was a minimum winning coalition. Thus it is fair to say that the US defeated Germany, as it would also be fair to say the USSR defeated Germany.

And your data supporting this assertion is what, beyond partisan cheerleading? Clearly there has been significant preference falsification whereby Maine Democrats tell pollsters one thing and vote differently when they step into the voting booth, and it happens over and over again. That’s likely due to some combination of Collins’ moderation and her ability to deliver the appropriations bacon to Maine.

@gallarway @lawindsor Did you sleep through the lecture on D-Day? The USSR would not have defeated Germany on its own, which is why Stalin was so keen to have the Allies open a second front.

@metalbender_00 @PpollingNumbers No. It’s the Biden-Collins voters from 2020 who will judge his character. How you like them apples?

@ProfDBernstein A Platner victory would be a leading indicator that 2028 would be for the Dems like 2012 was for the GOP.

@shudnell @CookPolitical @amyewalter The polls have underrated Collins in every election since 2008 (probably earlier, but I couldn’t easily find data from 1996 and 2002). How was she able to pull this off (“IN MAINE”) if she can barely talk and never visits her constituents?

@speechboy71 @HereQueerNow Also, Platner kept a symbol from *Nazi Germany* to remind himself how evil the *United States* is? Surely a military history buff would have realized that the United States defeated Nazi Germany. Does he think the soldiers on D-Day were acting as agents of evil?
