I am taking issue with your calling them "habitual losers" since it's demonstrably untrue. If you only look at the last election, you can't call it "habitual". If you widen the timescale, the worst possible is the last 3, in which they still won 1/3. In any other timescale, they were even or won more. Sure, there are other offices, but the presidency is quite a big one to overlook.

I said that you aren't ever going to understand what really happened if you start with a false premise, and you're obviously going to defend your false premise to the end, so I'm out.

Yes! Let's have some reflection and not pick the timescale to suit a narrative. The "habitual losers" won 3 of the last 5. Pelosi, Clinton, Biden etc. were all very present when Obama was in the Whitehouse.

I totally agree that it's ridiculous to lose to Trump, but you can't claim that they lost because their platform could never win, because it already has - including against Trump.

Why did they lose? I don't know - but I do know that you aren't going to find the answer if you start from a false premise.

I wasn't suggesting that they do. I was commenting on the fact that they don't even have the decency to pretend.

Absolutely. Trump wants to sell that info, not give it away!

Of course. It's just that they haven't even come up with a plausible excuse.

it’s standard for providers to bill for two colonoscopies if they remove two or more polyps in different ways.

Billing for 2 procedures instead of 1 could conceivably explain why the bill was twice as high as the estimate. It could not possibly explain why the bill was three times as high as the estimate.

It would be a 'critical position for fighting Trump' if you hadn't voted Trump in.

The "habitual losers" won last time around.

In the medieval period, there was the common idea that if something is too perfect, it must have been made by the Devil. To forestall accusations of having done a deal with the Devil, craftsmen would often deliberately introduce flaws in their design.

That's why there are always gaps in my dovetails.

Thou is singular and you is plural. Thou art. You are.

OK, I misunderstood you. Would calling them "senator" be better?

How clearly can Musk telegraph that if you want safety, you shouldn't drive a Tesla? More evidence that he is a genius CEO.
