I don't like either team, but I am rooting for the Braves over the Phillies because ATL won the division and already defeated PHI by 6 games across a 162-game marathon. They shouldn't have to win a 3-game series to advance past them now.

Trump thinks that because he's changed the name of AI, now all concerns expressed about it previously are a hoax. The illogic is breathtaking. (Note that in this clip he's also lying about economic growth.)

Has he considered that the reason they haven't used their account is the same reason I've paid car insurance for over a decade and not used it, because in that tine I haven't had an accident? Does he think you only need insurance if you're already ill? Aren't those called underlying conditions? 🙄
