Prickly City by Scott Stantis for January 13, 2023

Leeewzer!!!

If the desert wasn’t so far away I’d go there and jump around on rocks too.

Still the leader of the Republican Party.

Still a criminal POS.

If the news media covered politics like sports, you’d have a more honest accounting. Compare what you said and expected with what actually happened. Instead, we have only opinion that often isn’t based in any objective reality, just the magical thinking message.

Cant wait for the one where they find sensitive documents in Bidens home, in the garage and social media and news are silent about it. Unlike with trump when it wa the main talk for weeks.

Donnie says that the number of votes doesn’t count, only the Electoral College counts.

Unless he loses the Electoral College, too, then THAT doesn’t count either.

So he tries to play Calvinball with a National Election: “Let’s keep changing the rules until we figure out a way I win!”

And there are people who SUPPORT this total clown? What’s WRONG with them?

I went to Texas A&M. We were frequently outscored but never lost.

“The Bruins sure outskated the Blackhawks last night!”

“But the Blackhawks won.”

“But the Bruins outskated them.”

“But the Blackhawks put the puck in the other team’s goal more often.”

“BUT THE BRUINS OUTSKATED THEM!!!”

(An actual conversation I had in 2013.)

The cited criteria don’t apply to soccer.

Can you imagine what would happen if the coach of a loosing team went to the fans at the end of the game, claimed loudly to them that the refs were biased and that their team actually won, and incited them to storm the field, take over the official scoring, and change it to “get the win?”

I believe that team would be suspended from the league, and the coach either suspended for a long period or permanently banned.

As Carmen said, unlike other fields.

He would say that, wouldn’t he. After all, he got fewer popular votes in 2016 but made it to the Presidency.
