His most recent attack on DeSantis shows he has no regard for the republican party or for that matter, what's best for the country. His only concern is for himself getting reelected. He may quite poss

If Trump wins the nomination then democrats will win the election, regardless of who they trot out, just like in the last election.  I'm praying that DeSantis runs and the Trump brigade realizes that

If they would just count merch sales instead of votes, Trump might actually win.

The fact that Trump's supporters really, REALLY like him doesn't offset the fact that many, many more people hate him and will vote for anybody but Trump.  

 

Biden rolls in '24.

I’d like to see him flip NY. He wouldn’t need and swing state then. It could happen. 

that'll never happen.  but he could flip enough swing states to win.  should be a simple task for the right, but it's not going to be.  it'll be very interesting.

It was a big “what if” but still, think about it. How beneficial that would be for future elections. All the populated cities are Dem controlled. It’s why the electoral college was created.

It's possible.  Especially if this charade of trials continue.  Biden won NY by 20-22% in 2020.  He is only ahead by 10% now.  Quite a drastic drop.

Last time it happened was Reagan, sadly, the biggest thing that has changed is that apparently the country can't recognize a horrible President anymore.

NY, Chicago, and California are fed up with Dem control. What a glorious day if all turned red. You’d have Dems jumping out of windows. I like to think big.

That is not the reason the electoral college was created

But the president and vice president are not elected directly by citizens. Instead, they are chosen through the Electoral College process. The process of using electors comes from the Constitution. It was a compromise between a popular vote by citizens and a vote in Congress.Mar 14, 2024

It was created so that the entire country isn’t controlled by a few states. Where does your disagreement fall?

Again, that is not the reason. Do some research. How big was New York when the electoral college was created?.

At the time, it didn't matter which States were more populace than others.  The point for the electoral college was, like baddog said, they didn't want the most populace states, whichever they were at the time, AND in the future, to be able to have that much power at the expense of the least populace States.   Say now, NY, California, Florida and Texas could elect, by popular vote, the President in every election due to the amount of people in theses States.  The founding fathers, in their great wisdom, realized this was not right.  Therefore created the electoral college to elect Presidents.

Thank you. Her diploma never kicks in. Now I’m going to be asked what kicks in means.

      Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.

      I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.

      He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up.

      I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.

      Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
