    I liked the television commercial where Tyson is all ears, maybe a little barbecue, Ha Ha, Lol.

    I hope you are happy, creator of this thread, just to hear your beloved hero's name, it must excite you. This thread does need to come to a close, riding off into the sunset.

    Some females do and that is factual, some males too, But truthfully bad boys are one can short of a six pack, slipping off their cracker so to speak

    I doubt Ali would be more popular, he's nowhere near as exciting of a boxer

    "Slipping off their cracker" I love that phrase. There are one or two staff in my workplace whom I'm going to use it on very soon.

    Tyson would have the more intense fan base and Ali a bigger one globally if that makes sense.

    I think we can all agree that Tyson set the world alight when he burst onto the scene, whereas Ali was an interviewers dream who appealed to the wider Audience.

    Trump was saying if he lost in 2016 it was rigged-& despite easily losing the popular vote, he won the electoral vote by narrow margins in 3 states. Hillary was up even more in the polls. This is a much more likely scenario for claiming fraud: nobody said it was.

    Before the 2020 election Donald was pre-emptively saying if he lost it would be because of cheating. All could see that corrupt gerrymandering was not going to be enough to win.
    The results were consistent with the polls.
    He is both delusional, & his uber-fragile Ego cannot accept what his tyrannical Father conditioned him to believe he would be if it was true: a loser.

    The allegations of any kind of significant fraud were laughable.
    They lost virtually every one of many dozens of court challenges: & before all types of Judges, including Republican & Conservative ones.
    Then he tried to cause a coup d'etat via terroristic means: 'Trial by Combat". Causing mutilations & deaths.

    You should question anyone's credibility-or your own-IF they always stick to what is approved by "their" side or tribe.
    Someone who never finds serious corruption on "their" side, never admires or finds anything good about even the motivations of their political opponents...That is not me. I can list many Conservatives I respect & admire due to their principles, & admire the good intentions of especially the Elder Bush, Reagan, McCain, Romney, Dole...Even while differing on most of their ideologies.

    But Trump is another animal altogether.
    Here in NYC we have seen up close his extreme inhumanity & vicious oppotrunism for decades.
    He is literally a Sociopath. He loves nobody & nothing, lacking any real ability for compassion & concern for the general welfare-or others.
    A Malignant Narcissist, pathological liar, viciously racist, sexist, authoritarian, complete business incompetence & bankruptcies, sued 1000's of times for crimes & endlessly corrupt, no intellectual depth, no loyalty, no core principles...

    You have drunk the Kool-Aid of what has all the characteristics of a Toxic, Conspiracy-Crazy, Fear & Loathing peddling Cult of Personality.
    An intrinsic part of this sick dynamic involves Fear-Mongering & encouraging sometimes clinical Paranoia: ignoring all evidence about Dear Leader's psychopathology, as they smear everyone who shows or proves it as somehow Evil.

    Many supporters are full of hate, fear & racism. Many others are very decent people who are delusional about him & the tranparent techniques & propaganda of a would be dictator who seeks to erode trust in every person & institution that even questions him.

    You wrote an entire essay filled with crap.
    Trump is the best President, end of. Biden is a senile scum, no man in their right man would of voted for him.
    And there was plenty of proof of fraud. Even if this election was run a million times, Biden still wouldn't get 81 million votes.
