I'm a Shapiro fan. Obviously, everything he says is truth and divine light.
I appreciate how you'll at least make points, arguments, and express your PoV rather than tell me exactly what it is I believe, call me alt right, *enter all the BS political fan boy Thriller does.*
Mainly, I appreciate you wanted to get drinks.

The image of the father and daughter who didn't make it has generated strong reaction here in the states. This image, taken on the Mexico side of the Rio Grande, is getting a strong reaction in Mexico:
https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/26/americas/mexico-immigration-crackdown/index.html
"Can the National Guard detain migrants so they don't cross into the United States?" one journalist asked. "Because you could even see that they were separating a family. It's very severe. ... I wanted to ask you to respond to those who say Mexico is building a wall with these 15,000 troops from the National Guard on the border."
"It's not like that," López Obrador replied. "It's more than anything regulating the entrance in the south. If these cases occurred, they were not instructed to do this. It's work that corresponds to immigration agents, not to the military. But it could have happened."

Thriller made some *** wipe super personal comment like that a while back. I should find it and post it in here.
There's got to be someone else that remembers what he said.

Yeah, I saw the video. The guy did the same thing that every one does on the left and tried to put him in a corner and ask him questions that were either false or clearly wrong. Shapiro got pissed and walked out assuming the guy was the same type of person (he's not, I guess he's a conservative brittish dude if I remember correctly) that always interviews him.
The first thing Shapiro did afterwards was apologize, admitted his hypocrisy in breaking his own rule and letting emotions get the best of him and admitted he didn't do his homework. Not a lot of politicians would do this.
So yeah, Shapiro got owned. Sometimes, if you're around long enough and in the public eye, you're going to get owned, make dumb decisions, etc. Like Rocky said, "It's not about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward." Good thing Shapiro is on the owning side more often than not.
Not a lot of politicians can admit when they're wrong. He can. Not a lot of political "fan boys" can admit when their politicians are wrong or got owned (see this thread for example.) I can.
Btw, I want to point out that this is the guy @Carbon13 that made some bigotry comment about mormons and white people when the Jazz's draft pick was compared to Jimmer and not Lillard.

Lol Jimmer sucks ***
I'm sure he made a few comments that were easy to read that way.
Anyone have any thoughts on last nights debate?
Don’t like Castro’s open borders stance.
I agree with the candidates that want to let people keep private insurance while getting those without insurance on Medicare.
Didn’t really buy into their crap about the economy not being good for the average worker. It simply is. That doesn’t mean it’s not clearly skewed to the rich and powerful. But don’t feed me ******** to make your point.
Lot of demonizing and denigrating the rich last night. At least that’s how it sounded to me.
Good points on amending/changing tax laws so companies pay a fairer share of taxes. Some of them pay very little.
Liked Gabbard pushing back on the idea of another war.
I think Castro, Booker and Gabbard did the most good as far as getting people to look into them. Was looking at internet searches and they rocketed up the list after and during the debate.
Warren seemed very passionate and sincere. That’ll help her greatly.

In the NBA, absolutely. However, his college career was a spot on comparison and for you react by saying something about the comparison was only made because of white people and mormons is pretty lame.

I wouldn't say the economy is necessarily good. There is a ton of underemployment--an all-time high since the recession iirc. And I personally feel like the bubble is going to burst really ****ing soon.
It's hilarious that these scumbags denigrate the rich as if they're living on subsidies their selves. Just more bs they know the public wants to hear.
I'm not against companies paying their fair share of taxes but I doubt it happens. Again, this isn't rocket science. They know what libs want to hear and spew that bs out.
All politicians are complete and utter pieces of ****.
The pivot in messaging was overnight. Trumpians said "unemployement is improving under Obama, but the stat is totally misleading. It does not consider underemployment and people who have quit looking for work to "the unemployement number is at a X year low, thanks to our dear leader"
Fact is that employment improved throughout the Obama presidency and continues to improve. Contrast to they lying narrative "awful before, awesome under Trump" that the Trumpian mental midgets will tell you.

Yes, more are employed. Yet, underemployed.
