Actually, AI-generated podcast hosts have been around for a while. There's no way that "Wiger" character on @getplayedpod.bsky.social is real.

I'm sure they are "working" in the sense that they are getting in DT's head. But I don't see how they are converting any voters from republican to democrat.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

The fact that we are pursuing (and getting rejected by!) college coaches tells me we won't be attracting a top coach or free agent. Even in the best case scenario, when does the "rebuild" end? Two years? Four?

The Democratic Party’s problems are not about being moderate or left. That’s a consultant and pundit red herring The problems are in party organization, the culture of “it’s their turn” nominations, candidate recruitment, gerontocracy, inability to shape media topics, and coming off hella lame

Yes, Harris fumbled that question and the republicans got a huge clip to play in their transphobic ads. But if she had responded with an ad that said "I support equal rights for Americans, regardless of their gender or sexuality" people would have respected her more.

You nailed the first section on economics. But your answer on culture (to refuse to answer questionnaires on trans issues) is very disturbing. How would that play out in reality? Interviewer: "Should transgender people have equal rights to healthcare?" Candidate: "I refuse to answer the question."
