Portuguese, because I'm much more likely to go on a return visit to Brazil than I am likely to ever go visit Italy.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cxww834p37voBayern are in advanced talks with... Vincent Kompany to be their next manager. A managerial appointment that I'm sure Bayern hopes will turn out like Xabi Alonso, but one which is more likely to be a stop on a managerial career somewhere in between the ignominious depths of Super Frank and Stevie G and the failing up mediocrity of Roberto Martinez...

At least we got good memes out of this.
I have had a ridiculous number of posts deleted for "Excessive Hyperbole" that refers to Biden's cognitive decline, while there is an entire thread up on Trump's cognitive decline. I've wondered about this. I have concluded that it's simply an attempt to control the narrative here.
Re: excessive hyberbole and the the TOS.

The words "false" and "intentionally misleading" were added to the TOS when Dave added the excessive hyberbole category back in 2010 I believe.
On this basis, the entire thread is Excessive Hyperbole and ought to be deleted. All of it.
Well, nothing I'm saying here is intended to comment on your experiences. I'm just trying to find a silver lining in what turned out to be a hoax.

If this is a re-alignment election, why?
Because it's about past time. Re-aligning elections are events that tend to happen approximately every generation or so, and as such we're sort of overdue for one right about now.
And yes, the 2024 re-alignment that polls are suggesting is real.
There’s also been a lot of digital ink spilled on reasons why men might move away from Dems en masse.
Depending on which surveys you choose to consult, the gender gap has narrowed either slightly or significantly since 2020, but either way the chasm between the two sides appears to have closed somewhat during this time frame. This continues the trend we saw from polling during this spring's primary race, where Trump performed better among women than men while Haley did better with men than women, despite the candidates' own respective genders. Of course the GE electorate will look far different than that of the GOP primary, but this general rule can still be decently instructive for what we'll see in the fall.
We just had a realignment in 2016, although 1980 was a part 2 to the realignment of the late '60s/early '70s one which cemented said trends so I can see the parallels.

Wacko crackhead (like, say, any other devoutly religious person, who also believes in equally preposterous fairy tales).
But I gotta say, I give him credit for at least thinking outside-the-box. Assuming those are his own thoughts while on a wicked salvia trip or something... and not something he is merely regurgitating from something he read in a New Agey space crystal book or on Erowid.
And no, I didn't watch the video. And have zero desire to.
But what I say is correct.

There should be a caveat that Vanderbilt tends to always dramatically underestimate Republican margins.
Most safe state polling tends to underestimate the winning party in general.
This is true.
