That ol' fucking turd Mitch... The last moron that needs to chime in on SCOTUS.
Isn't it being reported that someone advised him to say it while they were in a strategy break during the debate?Mjl wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 12:15 pmHe didn't bring it up, it came up in the context of a debate.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 10:59 amYes.

And without having to make it about yourself by declaring ahead of time because you want pats on the back.
Maybe you should find things out definitively before posting speculative rumors.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 6:28 pmIsn't it being reported that someone advised him to say it while they were in a strategy break during the debate?Mjl wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 12:15 pmHe didn't bring it up, it came up in the context of a debate.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 10:59 am
Yes. This.

That's kind of counterproductive to being a troll. Or, as you like to say, a cunt.PhDhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 8:07 pmMaybe you should find things out definitively before posting speculative rumors.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 6:28 pmIsn't it being reported that someone advised him to say it while they were in a strategy break during the debate?
Maybe I did, but wanted to pose it as a question anyway?PhDhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 8:07 pmMaybe you should find things out definitively before posting speculative rumors.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 6:28 pmIsn't it being reported that someone advised him to say it while they were in a strategy break during the debate?

It is being reported that in a strategy break during the debate that someone reminded him to announce publicly the decision he had already made privately. Your generalization makes it sound like he hadn't decided to do it until someone else told him to. That would be incorrect.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 6:28 pmIsn't it being reported that someone advised him to say it while they were in a strategy break during the debate?Mjl wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 12:15 pmHe didn't bring it up, it came up in the context of a debate.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 10:59 am

No. My comment was that he was reminded to make sure he used it (or in this case remembered to use it) as a bargaining chip on the campaign trail. That would be a totally correct statement.twocoach wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 9:11 amIt is being reported that in a strategy break during the debate that someone reminded him to announce publicly the decision he had already made privately.

That's flat out ignorant. He decided to do it because it is the right thing to do. It also wins him votes. These two things can exist separate of each other. The fact that it wins him votes to say it out loud doesn't mean that he shouldn't do it for fear that a constant contrarian might question his motives. The fact that a white constant contrarian thinks it cheapens it to say it out loud doesn't mean that it wasn't a necessary and important thing for African American citizens of the US to hear.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 9:47 amNo. My comment was that he was reminded to make sure he used it (or in this case remembered to use it) as a bargaining chip on the campaign trail.

He should have done it because it was the right thing to do instead of doing it to win votes by declaring it ahead of time. Just pick a black woman because representation matters. It doesn't need to be said that race/gender are why you're picking a person/from a group of people. It cheapens it in my opinion, which is totally fucking unfair to whichever very deserving woman of color he chooses.
He "used" it. That feels really slimy to me.twocoach wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 10:11 amThat's flat out ignorant. He decided to do it because it is the right thing to do. It also wins him votes.

No one cares whether it cheapens it for you and people like you or me. It is irrelevant.
It's almost like he was trying to win an election to be President of the United States.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 10:27 amHe "used" it.
