Trump will try to fire him and then move on.

If their job description was Apple Genius, or if they scored above 139 on an IQ test, I would Call them that.Anchor describes people who anchor a tv program that Involves the reporting of others, it’s not an award of merit.

Yes, 'anchor' is almost universally applied to those who host (or, anchor) a show that involves *primarily* news reporting from others. For shows where some or no reporting is mixed in with opinion and commentary, they tend to be referred to as a host. For example:

Rachel Maddow

Host of 'The Rachel Maddow Show'

Rachel Maddow is host of the Emmy Award-winning “The Rachel Maddow Show” on msnbc.

Hope that clarifies the confusion.

Hope that clarifies the confusion.

It doesn't. Anchoring the election reporting but hosting his own show.

I guess it matters what we're focused on. Or maybe not. In any case, I'm willing to put up with it. Not like it's more confusing than say, math.

>> [m]ost of the [Trump campaign’s] objections ... are grounded in an extraordinary failure to understand how elections function.”

Oh gee, another thing Trump can't understand.

And there it is - the Grand Old Party has become a party of cheaters, sore losers and traitors.

Not to mention the abusive partner gaslighting the nation.

Sioux.

Incorrect.

Lakota, Nakota or Dakota.

Three different dialects. The Lakota are comprised of 7 bands and are the largest and most western of the three groups, occupying lands in both North and South Dakota. The Dakota, or Santee Sioux, live mostly in Minnesota and Nebraska, while the smallest of the three, the Nakota, primarily reside in South Dakota, North Dakota, and Montana.

And that is just in the US. Nakoda (Stoney) - Wikipedia

Right, but this is an elected lawmaker who cannot spell nor presumably understand that which he desires to happen. How does such a person get into power?

He followed the motto, "If at first you don't secede, try try again."

 

[WolfEyes]

No, that prick, there I go again with the cuss words, is nothing but a grifter pure and simple. I don't want to disparage NYC as that is his home, especially since they hate his guts, but yeah, he is a northerner.

Not to mention that fact that if you weren't born in the south you are NOT a Southerner. If you're from the "North" you're a damn yankee. If you're from the western states or anywhere else, you're a foreign yankee.

That thing (assTrumpet) is none of the above. It's not even human.

Bravo to this young man! Today was also my grandfather's birthday (He served in the SE Asian Theatre of WWII). If he were still with us, he would have the same thing to say, I'm positive.

My maternal Grandfather's birthday is the 16 - he served in the Pacific too - on the Tennessee. And yeah. I come from a long line of soldiers and sailors, including my dad. The constant right wing attacks on everything they fought for, and even on them is just .... beyond angering.

Yeah, mine was a scout in the 132nd Infantry Regiment serving in the Phillipine Islands, Bougainville, New Caledonia and Guadalcanal. There is a book of personal accounts written regarding their personal experiences. It's out-of-print I believe, but I still have his, bookmarked and note-filled version (Orchids in the Mud). I also have the assorted medals he received during his time spent there. They were passed down to my mother who has since passed them to me.

My father also served, but that was in peacetime Japan, oddly enough right about the same time as Lee Harvey Oswald and they were both air traffic controllers.

I've always agreed with the words of that great political philosopher Michael Corleone, in Godfather III: Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment.

Corleone had it almost right.

Never hate. It affects your judgment.
