Welcome to real life, sexual desire is universal for humans regardless of the political opinions. Though I can imagine the progressive liberals would only like to think conservatives and Trump supporters are the only ones who can behave that way and the Democrats are too perfect to exist. If this happened to a GOP candidate, New York Times & co. would be all over it. It's funny such a left-wing tube like The Guardian has to make a stance and ditch the usual political lines to make liberals look at least awkward.

 

It is what it is, those liberals who wouldn't have voted for Biden anyway won't change their mind now. All those who stay at home actually help Trump. It seems to me Republicans are not as divided as Democrats and people will vote for him because he represents the party even if they dislike Trump himself. Those Democrats who dislike Biden simply won't vote for him and that's the end of it.

I absolutely agree about sexual desire, and it’s absolutely fine to have it, but how you act on it is another thing. 
 

Yes, Democrats and Republicans both love to virtue signal. That’s one of the consequences of a two party system. I will say that Democrats have proven to be anything but perfect in recent years. It’s embarrassing as a journalist, that many respectable outlets aren’t even chasing this story. Plus, when one does (Chris Hayes on MSNBC) Democrats get #FireChrisHayes to trend on Twitter for two days. 
 

Yeah, the progressive wing (30% of the party) will seriously question supporting Biden now. The problem for Democrats is that they encompass everyone who’s not a member of the GOP essentially. There’s multiple wings within the party itself. We’re generally less united, and have a wider range of policies. The GOP has a very clear unity around what they believe, and that works to their advantage unfortunately.

We’d just straight arrest these idiots in California. I never thought Covid would be the thing to push us ever so closer to Civil War...

The plot in the Biden scandal has thickened yet again. It’s become public knowledge that his campaign team went through some Senate record at the University of Delaware. He claims they were looking for proof that Tara Reade had submitted an official complaint. He says they didn’t find anything. When asked if he’d released what exactly his team went through, he said “there’s no need.”

 

So, he probably did it.

Calling CNN 'fake news media' because they mentioned there were rumours (it's not a normal thing for Kim Jong-un to not show his face for the opening of this thing or the celebration of some other random thing), lol. People tend to forget that CNN's main North Korea reporter literally said his sources had heard nothing worrying about Kim and the rumours about him being in trouble should be taken with a big grain of salt.

 

Even funnier when calling CNN fake news....compared with the state media of a semi-dictatorship :p

    • Looking at last season's 1st World Cup, it's worse for now and it should be the other way around. Bosa out of shape, Trentini weak. Both will drop to a lower group. It's similar to skeleton, i.e. regression instead of progress. I hope this doesn't mean Ghiotto is also in weaker form, because it could end up with 0 podiums this weekend.
    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad. By the way, this also applies to other sports: the above-mentioned Vitozzi in biathlon, Goggia in downhill, Brignone in giant slalom, etc.
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event 
    • In bed with the flu and few hours of sleep, but at least the insomnia will let me watch the first World Cup stage
