There was one question that was like We should pursue progress at any cost or possibly the inverse of that, and I chose the weaker option that still agreed with that idea. Thats about it

Just wanna say that ROH is not a cheap buy. Sinclair Broadcasting isnt gonna want to sell now that they make a consistent profit on it.

Also I think their production values are pretty good these days.

And worse case scenario, if the will of the people is SO dumb as to re-elect him, he cant be President forever.

Would the U.K. be willing to re-do the referendum every 4 years?

Like, the US was never meant to have someone like Trump in office, but at least we set things up to deal with it if it ever happened

Have any of those 'things' we have set up actually done anything though?


Yes, actually.

Imagine Trumps reign in a world with no separation of powers?

Yes, things have gotten worse as Congress becomes his bootlickers and he wields executive authority to near maximum amount.

But I still think Checks and Balances are holding up better than I thought they would.

Could you imagine a successful fascist like Putin fearing to strike down a federal investigation into his campaign the way Trump clearly fears firing Mueller?

My memory is terrible anymore on some things. I can't even remember how Scalia died. Wasn't it just old age in his sleep?


One theory is that an overweight, out of shape, 79 year old with many known health conditions died of natural causes in his sleep.

The other is that President Obama sent hit men into his home, unbeknownst to his family, and had him murdered by smothering him with a pillow.

So the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

So then the truth would be that, for years, Obama had surreptitiously presented Scalia with opportunity after opportunity to eat his favorite unhealthy foods

I feel like Trump knows fuck all about judges and doesnt care enough to do any research, so he just nominates whoever his establishment buddies want him to and then moves on with his life.

Who's not afraid of booking intergender matches?

To be fair, WWE just had one last week

Also this is a great point:

Most intergender matches are more realistic than the last few Undertaker matches

Of course YOU think she deserves to be heckled


Depends on what you call heckling.

YOU probably think heckling is "why didn't you report it when it happened?"


In this case, its crowds yelling sexualized slurs at her.

Also even if she is hypothetically telling the truth, not sure what there is to report here. Shes not accusing him of anything criminal.

I honestly dont believe Lethal (or any roster member) has the sort of pull to get a popular woman fired over nothing in the midst of their attempt to actually build a womens division, as half-assed as that attempt has been.

I definitely wouldnt discount the idea that he made some shitty offhand remark to her at some point that shes pointing at now. Quite possible.

I have confidence that Kim Jong Un will honor the contract we signed &, even more importantly, our handshake. We agreed to the denuclearization of North Korea. China, on the other hand, may be exerting negative pressure on a deal because of our posture on Chinese Trade-Hope Not!


Emphasis mine.

Brock was in the octagon for two minutes and managed to push Cormier and nearly take out a cameraman


Brock wins if hes taking it seriously. Cormier is better pound-for-pound, but Lesnar has many more of those pounds. 80-20 odds on Brock

If he just sees it as a payday and wants no business actually being Champion and the promotional work that comes with it, Cormier could win. 55-45 odds on Cormier
