I've spelled it 'superb owl' for years as a slight to the NFL for going after any business that uses their TM'd name for the game, even threatening lawsuits against mom-and-pop businesses for not paying a licensing fee to use the name to promote parties at their establishments.I think you meant SUPER BOWEL.
The Trump cult characterization doesn't refer to all of his voters, just the ones who think the guy can do no wrong and show unquestioned loyalty to him. You can often pick them out in real life by their attire, boats, flags, etc. and online by their refusal to accept any criticism of their dear leader.Denigrating a large swath of voters in this country - just because they vote differently than you - is one of the reasons he got elected. Please continue!
You know one now, Bazza. It's beyond hypocritical for anyone to call for draconian and injudicious cost-cutting and then spend (or support the spending of) millions of dollars on an ego show. Conservatives have been critical of celebs like Streisand and others who display the "sacrifice for thee, but not for me" lifestyle. It's the same thing.Have to disagree. I don't know of a single person who sits down with his family at dinner and they discuss how much was spent for the POTUS to attend the Daytona 500....or Super Bowl....and why it was a bad idea. The money could have been used better.
Instead the conversation is likely..."This is what the leader of a country looks like!"
Refreshing!
Of course not, but I guarantee there are people who no longer have jobs that are sitting at home thinking this.
And it's exactly this kind of thinking is why Trump won the election.The Trump cult characterization doesn't refer to all of his voters, just the ones who think the guy can do no wrong and show unquestioned loyalty to him.

Trump’s Personality Cult Plays a Part in His Political Appeal
Personality measures suggest Donald Trump exerts a cult of personality over his followers, people who are psychologically susceptible to his appeal. This could help explain how he has succeeded in U.S. politics while other populists have notwww.scientificamerican.com

Nope. The Trumpers will vote for him regardless of what anyone says about them. Trump won the election because the inflation issue was attached to the Democrats.
We often discuss the day's events during dinner. Why is that hard to believe?
All the excuses in the world don't excuse his behavior. The "it's just who the man is" has been used to dismiss without responsibility or explanation a plethora of despicable things he's done.
It was almost like that, except it was biscuits. I'm not a fan of coleslaw.
Who's dying on a hill? I'm just saying that it appears hypocritical to be decrying wasteful spending on a such a massive scale that you're cutting thousands of jobs and humanitarian programs while at the same time spending millions to spend a few minutes at a sporting event.
Yes he's an entertainer, he's a clown.
Not an excuse.
Nothing unusual about that.
He's done more in the first few weeks than any previous president I can think of. He has his cabinet members and staff fanned out across the world getting stuff done. Truly a breath of fresh air....
I've done it, in Singapore under Lee Kuan Yew. Difference was Lee actually loved his country and the diverse people in it. That said it was very oppressive in odd ways. I was there pre-internet so the news was heavily restricted, Lee famously hated the Wall Street Journal for instance allowing only a fixed number of copies in daily for business leaders and hotel guests. All Media was PG on sex hard R on violence (never understood that but I also don't understand our culture either) and very parochial and patriarchal. Best can be described by saying we got better info and more liberal media broadcast across the border from Muslim Malaysia which is also where we went to buy R Rated films.
Aw shucks, Baaza, are you going to continue to imply that I'm a liar? If you're not careful, I might start to doubt that "friendly fellow" image you've worked so hard to cultivate.Exactly. I just don't see it.....good Lord.....
