Fetterman's growing on me

Wash the affected areas and apply Lotrimin twice a day. If it doesn’t clear up in 2 weeks, call a physician.

[George K]

God DAMN it. He's making sense again.

I don't know if it would pass legal muster, but...

[Mik]

Just heard on the news there's a plan to sell US Stell to a Japanese company. US Steel. SMH.

[Copper]

Eventually they'll own all the big US companies worth owning.

And of course the politicians led by the Big Guy crime family.

So, GM is safe, right?

Up about 3% over the last 12 years

Yes, I agree, safe

The 1980s called, they want their worries about Japanese ascendency back.

[Mik]

I was just thinking about that. We sold them so much commercial real estate at the high point and bought them back for pennies on the dollar.

They don't need GM if they own Elon.

if they own Elon

How would they pronounce that?

Stop and think about what he just stated. “As a Harvard Alum”…

The whole hoodie wearing, Mon Valley Blue Collar image is an act. It’s a fake. Western Pennsylvania has been a little bit of a problem area for Dems. Pittsburgh was a reliable city for them through all the Union activity. They have lost that area. They are crafting Fetterman to try and win back some of the blue collar common sense guys they have lost there.

[George K]

Jesus...

[Mik]

He's not going to be very popular in the party.

Meh… I’m cynical. I think the Powers That Be in the Democrat Party realize they have overextended themselves and are preparing for a shift to the center. Having Fetterman take the lead also helps them try to resecure the rust belt cities…

[Mik]

Possibly. But I have a sneaking suspicion that the [prevailing belief in Washington is that we will need these people to keep the economy growing and our social programs in place. That would explain why we've done essentially nothing about it for decades.
