Nice! Are they racing now?
AdLiban hour ago
Shortly.
pinkpantheroz

Is there betting?
AdLiban hour ago
Good evening

HI, TW
pinkpantheroz

Evening TW! How ae things with you?
AdLiban hour ago
PPO how are you.
twilson117

Hey Ad
twilson117

Fine thanks, starting races in the club tower just now.
pinkpantheroz

I just got a call from Trump asking if I could help him out. I said sure which door did you come int.
twilson117
an hour ago
So…looks like I’ll have to boycott MSNBC now that they hired Ronna McDaniel.
AdLiban hour ago
PPO which one is the Trump Dump that is going to get sunk?
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – Heh! 
AdLiban hour ago
She’s going to NBC, isn’t she?
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
So it sure looks like Trump will have his bank accounts seized on Monday!
AdLiban hour ago
Ad no just switch channels when she come on, or buy stock in TV mfg because you’ll be buying a lot of them due to breakage on your part. 
twilson117
an hour ago
PPO – Yes, they announced that she’ll appear on NBC and MSNBC. That’s a burning bridge too far.
AdLiban hour ago
from your lips….Ad.
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Ad I do not get the logic of that hire, I saw that today and was floored by it.
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – This is exactly why there are boycotts and how they work. If I keep watching MSNBC despite their acting in such a greedy, unethical way, it will only get worse there.
AdLiban hour ago
CBS and CSPAN for me from now on.
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
PPO – Those are good alternatives.
AdLiban hour ago
I think my DVD collection will get a good work out.
twilson117
an hour ago
CL is in the house!!
twilson117
an hour ago
Hi! Got here to see PPO for once. Hi Ad and TW – lovely to see YOU, too.
choicelady
an hour ago
But my official boycott starts today. Taking Maddow off the schedule for DVR. If she stands against McDaniel because she’s losing viewers, McDaniels will be gone.
AdLiban hour ago
Hey CL!
AdLiban hour ago
CL!
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
I said the one attraction for having Rona on MSNBC is to have live action when the FBI arrest her on air. Now THAT would boost ratings!
choicelady
an hour ago
FYI, Murph won’t be here tonight, he’s at a Kunce meeting and apparently, they want him to be a higher up on GOTV. Very cool!
AdLiban hour ago
Good for Murph!
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Little personal note – I just sold my ex’s house in OHIO for well over the original price. Even in the Rust Belt a nice house is desirable.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – Love it! But we can always get a perp walk video of her without having MSNBC prop up her sedition whitewashing.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad so Murph is moving up in the Kunce org. That’s good.
twilson117
an hour ago
Cool news about Murph!
choicelady
an hour ago
What’s the reaction to Kate’s cancer?
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
CL – That’s great news!
AdLiban hour ago
CL good for you on the sale.
twilson117
an hour ago
Ad – I know we can get the video, but how wonderful would it be to have her yanked off air talking to Andrea!
choicelady
an hour ago
PPO – On Twitter it’s quite mixed. Some are very unkind. Some are very sympathetic. And a tiny number are blaming Harry and Meghan. Go figure.
choicelady
an hour ago
PPO – I can’t help but have a few grains of skepticism about that announcement coming in the midst of condemnations of her and the royal family for trying to deceive the public.
AdLiban hour ago
CL – I would rather have McDaniel, Mitchell, and Tur in a discussion then a huge comical hook pulls them all off the stage for good.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad – I like the way you think!
choicelady
an hour ago
Oh, and Welker. So many I really can’t stand nor watch already on MSNBC.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad I see no value of having McDaniel on MSNBC no at all.
twilson117
an hour ago
I find I am pretty OK with MSNBC in the evening but NOT mostly by day.
choicelady
an hour ago
I mean, a RW corporations, Comcast, owns MSNBC so none of this is a surprise.
AdLiban hour ago
TW – how can they invite someone THEY showed participating in an illegal act on fake electors? It’s like having Al Capone opine on organized crime.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad do the words fair and balance ring a bell?
twilson117
an hour ago
got to go, sorry. losing signal
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Bye PPO!!
choicelady
an hour ago
PPO take care.
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – MSNBC is following the same corporate dictate that CNN has, “We need to be balanced in case Repubs win in Nov. So we need to hire RW liars and frauds to denigrate our reputation to have access and higher revenues.”
AdLiban hour ago
Insanity thy name is monopoly power.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – I feel the same way but the McDaniel hire is flipping the middle finger to MSNBC being a respectable news outlet. She is a massive liar and a participant in the attempted overthrow of our nation. Not acceptable. I am boycotting MSNBC completely until or unless they kick her out.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad I know you’ve mentioned that before, but it doesn’t make me feel any better about it. I like the fact that MSNBC is not being fair and balanced because there is no fair and balance with these seditionists.
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – perfect observation. Nothing is fair these days. It’s all for performative value.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad I would just like MSNBC to keep doing what it’s doing I don’t need the fakery of fair and balanced. It doesn’t exist in politics.
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – Exactly, a legit news operation deals in truth. Hiring a constant liar and fraud who committed sedition is not something I can abide and continue to be a viewer of such a channel. I am out until she is.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad – AMEN.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad do you actually think Joy Reid is going to be nice to her?
twilson117
an hour ago
Ad for the matter how do you think Lawernce will treat her?
twilson117
an hour ago
Lawrence will tear strips off her if they insist she is on his show. Joy might, too.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL – So true. News is a BS business now. There are plenty of legit journalists still in the field but most outlets, including the NYT, WAPO, and on and on, have RW propagandists writing for them. That is not what the decades of committed journalists that came before ever envisioned after yellow journalism was crushed.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad I give her three months before she quits and goes over the Russian station where she belongs or working Alex Jones selling fake supplements.
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – I think she will feel “disrespected”. Because she will be disrespected. She isn’t respectable. She’s a criminal.
choicelady
an hour ago
CL agree
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – As a matter of principle, at a minimum, all of the nighttime hosts should band together and say they absolutely will not have McDaniel on their shows or they won’t show up on a night when she is forced on their shows.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad – and the Sunday folks won’t either. Only the morning Andrea and Tur. The rest? No way.
choicelady
an hour ago
Can you SEE her with Jan Psaki?
choicelady
an hour ago
Don’t forget that NBC paid liar and racist Megyn Kelly a fortune to host at NBC then had to blow up that deal. This just proves they are morons in the executive offices at Comcast/NBC and learned nothing from that debacle.
AdLiban hour ago
Morning Joe would eat her lunch. For a former Republican, he’s death on the MAGA crowd.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad which idiot in management thought that was a good idea? They might as well bring back the Edsel it was an ugly car but have features that were ahead of its time. McDaniel has nothing but lies if I want to hear lies I’ll to one of the many TV evangelists and I never listen to them.
twilson117
an hour ago
I don’t know, I think Comcast/NBC will be pretty hard line about hosts accepting her on their shows as a commentator. Wonder how Michael Steele feels about it.
AdLiban hour ago
TW – I agree this is a ludicrous decision.
choicelady
an hour ago
Michael Steel will not suffer her. He’s been vicious ABOUT her, can’t see him being gracious TO her.
choicelady
an hour ago
It’s as bad as how insane I thought CNN was for having Rick Santorum as a regular over there. MSNBC just crashed at rock bottom.
AdLiban hour ago
If she wasn’t on video pushing the fake electors plot, maybe. BUT SHE IS.
choicelady
an hour ago
Ad Steele has no, absolutely no love lost for her she ruined everything he worked to build in the RNC she tore it all down. Can’t image he is a happy camper at all.
twilson117
an hour ago
TW – he’s been vicious about her sucking up to Trump. He detests her.
choicelady
an hour ago
Can you imagine the lectures that Comcast/NBC execs will be giving all the hosts who can’t stand her. “It’s still a popular perspective that half the country supports…” Oh yeah? Half the country can’t read past a 5th Grade level so should we have 5th graders hosting too?
AdLiban hour ago
For most of my adult life, there is always SOME idiot in the room with a “I have a GREAT idea” that turns out to be purely awful. I swear it’s the “I got a trophy for breathing” fools.
choicelady
44 minutes ago
Ad – BRING ON THE FIFTH GRADERS! They’re smarter than Rona.
choicelady
44 minutes ago
So do we think Trump will pull a last minute trick out on Monday or will Letticia James seize Trump’s bank accounts and start the process of taking his properties away?
AdLib44 minutes ago
CL that he has. I would tune in to watch that have plenty of popcorn
twilson117
43 minutes ago
Ad – I can’t see how he can do anything.
choicelady
43 minutes ago
CL and that idiot was always a senior manager
twilson117
42 minutes ago
CL – Actually, while 5th graders would probably be more entertaining to watch as they try to understand what the teleprompters say, the Repubs would only feel emboldened to tear down child labor laws even more.
AdLib42 minutes ago
TW – yup. Why do they let the mediocre climb that high?
choicelady
42 minutes ago
Ad so are you saying she will be doing her show with sock puppets?
twilson117
42 minutes ago
Ad – well, you have a point on the labor laws.
choicelady
42 minutes ago
CL – Trump could take hundreds of millions from Russia, Saudi Arabia, Musk, etc.
AdLib41 minutes ago
Cl everyone has the right to get to their level of incompetence.
twilson117
41 minutes ago
Ad – it was my understanding any money he gets has to be a gift not a loan, and I think his credit score is WAY down. Not sure any of them will bail him out now.
choicelady
41 minutes ago
I would like to see ALL of the principled hosts boycott hosting their shows for a week straight and see if that changes MSNBC’s minds at all.
AdLib40 minutes ago
TW = I totally agree about the right to incompetence. But that’s where it should STAY.
choicelady
40 minutes ago
Ad – I’m not sure the fill in hosts would fill in either.
choicelady
40 minutes ago
CL sadly that is true.
twilson117
40 minutes ago
CL – The truth is that any financial person with a functioning brain would know that Trump doesn’t pay his debts and they would lose whatever money they put up for him. Chubb was fine with being on the hook for $100M, of course we don’t know if Musk or the Saudis provided the availability of liquid cash as an assurance but no one appears to want to lose half a billion and likely more.
AdLib38 minutes ago
Maybe Mike Johnson will give her a call and ask her to come and work for him heaven knows he need help to ward off the evil witch known as MTG
twilson117
38 minutes ago
I’m not sure Rona could stand up to MTG. Everyone’s scared of her.
choicelady
37 minutes ago
Ad Rump is lying about having 500m
twilson117
37 minutes ago
TW – someone knowing way more than I do says his stating in court he had the money could itself be a crime. Every time he opens his mouth, it gets worse for him.
choicelady
36 minutes ago
CL – That would be affirming and inspiring to support the good folk at MSNBC if they used their power to push back against NBC’s betrayal of hiring McDaniel. And how could they choose McDaniel over their popular hosts?
AdLib36 minutes ago
Ad – Seriously. This is such a rotten decision by corporate. Dayum.
choicelady
35 minutes ago
CL with the information this will be one and only time you we hear me say, then let Trump keep talking.
twilson117
35 minutes ago
TW – I agree. He is truly his own worst enemy.
choicelady
34 minutes ago
TW – The funny thing about Trump bragging that he has half a billion in cash is that it completely destroys his motion to Engoran to put aside the deadline on Monday because his lawyers swore on his behalf that it is “impossible” for him to put together that amount of money.
AdLib34 minutes ago
Ad – the man does NOT think before he blurts. Never good.
choicelady
34 minutes ago
Ad not very bright for a Wharton Grad 
twilson117
33 minutes ago
CL – It is an absolute betrayal of NBC against its faithful viewers. My response is, “Fine, you think you can do this and keep me as a viewer? Wrong!”
AdLib33 minutes ago
TW – I don’t think he ever graduated. His name is NOT on the commencement bulletin. One of his profs said he was the “Stupidest student” he’d ever had.
choicelady
32 minutes ago
CL yeah I know I saw that some time back. Plus I read one his Prof’s said he was one of the dumbest students he ever had.
twilson117
31 minutes ago
I tend to remember if someone I was studying with criticized my approach to things, I learned from it. Donnie never did. Your teens and 20s are the time to find out you are NOT the brightest bulb and change. He didn’t.
choicelady
31 minutes ago
And let’s face it, Trump’s dementia is becoming more obvious every day and his desperation grows alongside it. No one who really thinks he’s likely to win an election acts as hysterical as he is acting. I think he’s been advised, the polls are worthless, Dems will once again win by outperforming margins and Trump will lose then be headed for prosecutions and prison with no recourse.
AdLib30 minutes ago
CL – I think you’re right, Trump is so militant about hiding his college records, you don’t do things like that without a reason.
AdLib29 minutes ago
The RNC directs money to Trump and his attorneys before anything else. Now Trump doesn’t have the money for rallies. And communities are no longer fronting for him. Pay up front, or don’t come.
choicelady
29 minutes ago
I just heard Lawerence say Trump’s mind works like a junkie only thinking about the thing in front of him what an apt description
twilson117
28 minutes ago
The calls for revolution if Trump loses are ridiculous. THIS time we have a president in charge of security who will exercise it. It is the Second Lost Cause. Fine with me.
choicelady
27 minutes ago
TW – that’s a good observation. I met RFK, Jr. years ago, and he had that same focus – not really in the room. He WAS a junkie. He still acts like one.
choicelady
26 minutes ago
And as we all knew, despite the Trumpian denials, they are pillaging contributions to the RNC for his legal defense payments so not only is Biden beating Trump badly in fundraising, the rest of the GOP is being robbed by Trump so he doesn’t have to pay his own legal bills. Trump is spending over $1 million a week on legal bills, none of that money will be available for him to use in the campaign or any other Repubs who counted on the RNC fundraising. Another huge but rarely discussed advantage Biden will have in the GE.
AdLib26 minutes ago
Ad – that confirms what I heard –
choicelady
26 minutes ago
Trump can’t hold rallies because he can’t pay for them.
choicelady
25 minutes ago
Ad I also heard the doners are getting tired of being asked and contributions are down. But there are those who will keep giving because as you said 5th grade reading level.
twilson117
24 minutes ago
Biden has purchased media funds, campaign trip funds, and DNC has downticket funds. The MAGA have nothing.
choicelady
24 minutes ago
CL – Yep, RFK Jr. just moved from one addiction to another. And how about the steroids he’s used? Those are okay but not vaccines?
AdLib24 minutes ago
TW – the little guys sending Trump money are burning out, too. That is way down.
choicelady
24 minutes ago
CL even when he does hold them he doesn’t pay.
twilson117
24 minutes ago
Ad – RFK’s idea of what’s good is what HE wants. Always a poor move.
choicelady
23 minutes ago
TW – Yes, I saw the numbers are collapsing for small donations to Trump. He has drained the suckers so dry and they just can’t keep it going.
AdLib23 minutes ago
TW – the problem with his long history of not paying is that cities are NOT fronting for him anymore.
choicelady
23 minutes ago
I think the scam on the Trump Bucks was maybe the last straw.
choicelady
22 minutes ago
CL RFK has no chance, but we have hope he doesn’t pull away enough votes to give Trump a win
twilson117
22 minutes ago
TW – I think he’s more likely to pull from Trump than Biden. He’s so RW that he appeals to the really stupid “never trumpers” far more than to indies who really value policy.
choicelady
21 minutes ago
CL this is going to be crazy and wild election.
twilson117
20 minutes ago
It may well be OR it may turn out to be an easy one. TRUMP is burning people out. They may just give up by November.
choicelady
20 minutes ago
The MAGA hard core is pretty small.
choicelady
20 minutes ago
CL – And there was a story out today about Biden campaigning in a number of states the past week and Trump only being in two states and his AZ rally for this weekend cancelled due to money issues. The perfect storm to destroy Trump is not going to be undermined by Loose Cannon, the SCOTUS, or anything else. The first criminal trial for Trump is likely starting on April 15th or thereabouts, he will be convicted by June. He is already going broke and as of Monday, James should grab all his bank accounts away, no delay on taking all that money. And the constant news stories about Trump’s criminal cases, the Repubs wanting to cut SS and Medicare and install a national abortion ban, and all the Repubs coming out saying they won’t vote for him (half of Haley voters are saying that), no way I can see how Trump gains as many or more votes as he did in 2020 which he needs to do to win. He will lose decisively and he will go to prison a broken and poor man,
AdLib18 minutes ago
CL – Like you said, RFK Jr. has an addict’s mentality, in a different way, all he’s doing is chasing a quick high in the short term, he has the vision of a blind man.
AdLib16 minutes ago
Ad – I agree though even if he did as well in 24 as in 20, it still wouldn’t be enough.
choicelady
16 minutes ago
Ad – I agree about RFK, Jr. I didn’t like him at all when I met him but didn’t know he was on heroin. He’s really no different now. Just a bit more focused.
choicelady
15 minutes ago
CL – Trump Bucks! He literally defrauds his followers and treats them like rubes and fools and yet for years they just said, “Thank you sir, can I give you more money?”
AdLib15 minutes ago
Trump bucks and the Golden Shoes – the end of a myth and the end of a dynasty.
choicelady
14 minutes ago
Listen in the background on Lawernce special show, turns out Trump doesn’t own what he claims he does. Ineresting.
twilson117
14 minutes ago
Trump is today’s P T Barnum without the circus or the charm.
choicelady
14 minutes ago
TW – I think RFK Jr. is having a lot of trouble getting on state ballots and also, I can’t see Dems going over to him as much as Repubs. He’s announced RWs as his potential VP choices, I think he has to declare by next week. Whichever RW he chooses will chase away Dems.
AdLib13 minutes ago
So Trump doesn’t own his own properties? Well, I guess I can see that.
choicelady
13 minutes ago
CL but he has plenty of suckers buying all his crap.
twilson117
13 minutes ago
TW – not at all sure about the Golden Slippers – they were discounted from $399 to $99 in a couple of weeks.
choicelady
13 minutes ago
And No Labels is trying their best to find someone to run for them to help Trump win but they lie and lie about, “We don’t want to do it if we would be a spoiler.” And yet they are pushing ahead as hard as they can to get someone, anyone, so they can serve Trump. They went from saying they would have a convention to choose their candidate to it all being Nancy Jacobsen’s choice now. Ain’t that democracy?
AdLib12 minutes ago
CL it’s octopus of owning a ground floor or some space leases bunch of complexity that is a gordian knot like situation. Hope James has a very sharp sword.
twilson117
12 minutes ago
He was having the Gold shoes made in China, and they demand money up front. If no one is buying, well – he’s out of big money.
choicelady
11 minutes ago
TW – James has a large number of very competent forensic economists on this. I heard Trump Tower isn’t owned by Trump and several floors are owned by the Saudis and Russians and Chinese. Not sure what he owns there.
choicelady
10 minutes ago
CL like everything else he was selling. Remember when Letterman exposed that on his show?
twilson117
9 minutes ago
CL – Exactly, Trump needs to gain at least 3 – 5 million more voters and take them from Biden to win. My bet is that Trump will underperform in the GE as he has in the primaries, he will get less votes than 2020 and maybe less than 2016. As I say often, what reason does any Biden or Indie voter have, who voted against Trump in the past, to vote for a more insane, more criminal, more dictatory Trump in 2024?
AdLib9 minutes ago
My dear friends – had my eye injections yesterday and am having some burning and side effects I need to tend. I will likely be here next Friday. We’re off to Fort Bragg Mon-Thursday, but should be here Friday. Sorry to bug out, but I need to get a cold cloth on the old eye. Talk to you next week! Let’s see what happens Monday!
choicelady
8 minutes ago
CL that’s correct the same holds true for some of the other props in NY.
twilson117

Take care CL.

Poor CL, hope she feels better!
