Knowing who gets into Cadet school, it’s not shocking that they’re racist, but it is saddening.

Good for him for finally standing up against the impeachment hoax that wasted millions of our tax payers money. He did jump on time, Red wave is coming November 3rd and it will sweep everything in it's path, the swamp will be drained. This is a beginning of a beautiful time for USA that started in november 2016 and won't stop any time soon, Thank you Adam Schitt, Thank you Pelosi, Thank you AOC #MAGA

I’m going to have to politely disagree with every single word in this post. So glad I voted for Pelosi in my first election. 

 

I’d say the whole email investigation wasted much more time and resources, but to each their own I guess. Like the SNL skit said last night, I do fear this election will come down to 1,000 people in the middle of fucking no where Wisconsin, who won’t even think about voting until the day of :p. Trump will not win the popular vote, that’s clear. Unfortunately (at least from my perspective) he still has a chance in the electoral college. I just hope we can end this disgraceful period of American history.
 

It’s so weird to live in this ultra divided nation. It wasn’t like this growing up. 2020 is going to be an interesting year.

The bookies know their stuff. Trump is odds on favourite against anyone. Hi will easily win next year.

Nothing is easy in American politics first off, and I think once the Democratic Party chooses their candidate, we may see a more united front against Trump. I honestly think there’s a chance that he wins the presidency buts looses the popular vote by like 7 million votes, which is just ridiculous, and would truly show how broken our democracy is. 
 

If he wins, we might actually get a vote on Calexit in 2022. My ideal country would be California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington. I’d vote to leave the union today.

Speaking of Wisconsin, how about this?

So much for a wonderful democracy when a quarter of million people are denied their voting rights. I bet the Democrats must love this judge now :p

    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?

    • Cattaneo was good but his peak was in Tokyo 2021. Then there was such stabilization - stagnation. In Paris the result was in line with expectations but without the wow effect. They threw everything that was best into the quadruple sculls and it was enough for a only silver. Now without the lightweight sculls in LA I think that radical changes are needed to remain competitive. Previously there was a 3-year Olympic cycle due to Covid, so big changes weren`t good but now I think the time is right. Although of course more funds are needed for this sport in Italy, because even the best coach will not overcome this vel our men`s alpine skiing sector
    • @Gianlu33 we posted the same (great) news at the same time  
    • Davide Tizzano (1996 Olympic Champion, men's double sculls) is the new President of the Italian Federation, as he defeated the (now former) President Giuseppe Abbagnale by a very small margin (52% to 48%) in last week's federal elections   and he's already at work to make up for the last 8 disappointing years (at least in terms of Olympic success): his first move is bringing back home  Antonio Colamonaci  who made  great in the past 8 years   https://www.oasport.it/2024/11/canottaggio-cambia-la-direzione-tecnica-dellitalia-arriva-il-guru-che-ha-reso-grande-la-romania/   let's see if he can make  great again, now
