Here is today's Matchup, A or B

If not for her looking like a smokeshow as Hela, I would've voted B.

I'll never understand religious people at all.

But something that truly baffles me is how evangelicals can actually think that God sent Trump to be their president.

Like, what?!?!?!

One of the truly frightening reasons has to do with his support for Israel which they see leading to war with Iran, nuclear confrontation and the "end of days".

Put that sucker on a bumper sticker.

Here's one description of the whole thing. Only in America would the prospect of a nuclear holocaust be a selling point.

Tough matchup. Gotta go A because I have a thing for gothed-out villainesses.

Literally the only reason I voted for her.

this is a quite an original story (points for creativity) but obviously so far fetched it falls into the same category as 'Russian infiltrants are leading the looting in US cities'.

I've seen a lot of "I guess you can strike Minneapolis off the list of hub cities now, har har har."

Wedgie's bold take: I'm going to go the other way. Their cases of COVID-19 seem to be somewhat in the middle (I'm just glancing at the CDC website), so it would be a bit of an NHL PR coup to say "we are doing this to help heal the Minneapolis community."

Yeah, no.

There are evangelicals who truly believe this.

It's not like this started with Trump. They've been hoping for this for years.

Once Trump is gone, they will move on to their next "leader."

I would hazard a guess they won’t be in the middle in a few weeks time

Would be a good PR angle tho

They will hold the playoffs in Chicago and Montreal, might as well pick the two Stanley cup finalists from the get go.

Ok Max, they're all making it up. You've asked before about getting help in understanding the context of US society and politics. Be prepared to be shocked when it comes to evangelicals and their role

He needs the Mayor and Governor to go along and he has openly mocked both of them. (I think the arena is in St. Paul)

Won't happen.

Texas or Florida are much more likely. He needs those electoral votes and the Govs are whores.

Huh?

I don't see how Trump plays into this. Are you thinking I'm talking about the DNC convention?

I'm talking about the NHL.

Neither Miami nor TB are on the list of 10 cities.

I am aware that in the US - like any underdeveloped and sociopath society - religion plays a very very big role in politics.
The biggest religion of the US is the $ though - it all is around that.

I was referring to the fact that I do not buy at all that all of these religious people are extremists who are keen on kickstarting an end of times through nuclear war.

Did anybody watch the 30 for 30 last night on Lance Armstrong?

Pretty fascinating.

I'm paraphrasing quite liberally here, but they asked him why he was such an SOB to people accusing him of doping, when he knew they were right.

He basically replied that he knew that to keep the lie going, he had to be 100%. Any letting up and it would crumble.

All of them? Of course not. I’m not religious myself but I respect those who use their faith to try to make the world better and are genuinely sympathetic and caring. The Bishop of Washington whose church Trump desecrated spoke beautifully about her beliefs and what she saw as responsiblities to care for others.

I have no idea how many of the crazies believe the other poop but they do love their heathen, adulterous President.
