jeffw,

Even if he stays around .250, he’d make an excellent everyday Center Fielder because he’s just so incredible defensively. And he steals so much that every other base hit is like a double.

Trump leads Biden by 2 percentage points in a hypothetical head-to-head matchup in November. However, when voters were presented with a five-way ballot, which featured Biden, Trump, Kennedy Jr., Green Party candidate Jill Stein and independent Cornel West, Biden led Trump by 2 points.

A couple important points: leading in the popular vote doesn’t mean he leads in the right places. You can win the popular vote and still lose the election. Also, the poll assumes all of those candidates make the ballot, not some of them. Some people just pick a third party candidate no matter what, meaning some of the Biden support that went to other candidates could easily go to RDK Jr were he the only other candidate on the ballot. I’ll also point out that other polls have not been clear or have suggested Trump gets a bump. Not sure the MoE here but it could basically have no impact on the election.

Edit: MoE is 3.1% per NBC. That means the race is a statistical tie. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna148170

jeffw,

Only the trans ones, everyone else can express their gender!

jeffw,

In-state tuition is cheaper than going elsewhere. Some people have no choice

Why doesn't the concept of national debt apply on a smaller level to individual cities?

So the gist of national debt in my understanding is Nation A asks for aid of some kind from (or commits unintentional damages to) Nation B who later on deems Nation A owes them based on their interpretation of the ordeal, with varying layers of complexity....

jeffw,

Cities can go into debt. Some states or municipalities are required to have balanced budgets though.

jeffw,

No, you can’t do it in Congress. Like it or no, SCOTUS ruled you can’t.
