Because for them its an "Outside Context Problem". It all comes back to "Demographics is Destiny". That theory was was first proposed around 2000 but after 2008/2012 that viewpoint really took off among the Left. But nowhere was it more accepted. More wholeheartedly believed. More treated as Gospel. Than among Millennials. Think about it. The first time many of them voted for the President was in '08 or '12. They came of age under Obama. All the pollsters. All the academics. All the talking heads. They all agreed on one thing. "Demographics is Destiny". Millennials honestly believed no Republican was ever going to be President again...and if by some miracle a Republican did become President... they would be a bland inoffensive Jeb! tier "Centrist" Republican... and then Trump came along and cataclysmically shattered their entire worldview. They just can't even. They just can't handle. They just have no frame of reference for something like this. They just have no fucking idea what to do.

Demographics *is* Destiny.

What is beyond them is the concept that people on the Right are also capable of reading. The Leftists aren't kidding when call racist rightwing people idiots and ignorant. They are wrong about both, especially the last one.

So all those online articles, magazine articles, and specials covering in various ways the changing demographics, Leftists actually think the Rightwingers can't read those.

The Left thinks the Right is illiterate, and they were also certain that the White parts of the Rust Belt would never start voting in a Conservative fashion.

One is that Trump rescinded Curry's invitation (okay, Curry didn't want to go in the first place).

That's normal etiquette. If you're extended an invitation with an RSVP and you respond "no", the invitation is considered declined and therefore rescinded. (And if you're rude enough to go around saying, "hell no, I wouldn't be caught dead around So-and-so", then you deserve to have the invitation publicly rescinded--though I'm sure Miss Manners would recommend a much more passive-aggressive phrasing.) So if you show up afterward anyway, the host is in the right to turn you away.

So, ironically, Trump is being more polite and less assholish than Curry, who apparently also threw a basketball around in the same room with a china cabinet and a president who was apparently born in a barn because why would you do that?

Anyone remember the "war on women" that was a talking point on the MSM around the time Romney made his "binders full of women" comment ?

Another reason why they can't come to grips with the fact the pussy grabber in chief beat the first female candidate.

The funniest part about "binders full of women" is that Romney was being a SJW and those were the people who dragged him through the mud.

That was blown up into a huge story but looking back at it, it was a pretty big blow to the credibility of the mainstream media. They made a story out of nothing to prop up their guy.

Right and I agree here. But I'm also hearing that he rescinded the invite to the entire team, which would make Trump an asshole too. Kind of like that teacher who makes the entire class stay inside for recess because one kid was goofing off.

(And Tim Thomas was a dick too. I'm seeing some of the same people who supported Thomas now criticizing Curry, and vice versa.)

"Nine to Five" was a nice little movie.

I love a lot of Dolly Parton's music, I think Jane Fonda was a very talented actress, and I always liked
Lily Tomlin in general.

But fuck these three with their political crap on a show about entertainment.

And fuck Stephen Colbert with some rusty garden shears.

If you look at Dolly's face through out the little speech, she's pretty shocked and embarassed through out the whole thing like she couldn't believe they'd be this vicious and knew if she said anything, the Hollywood mafia would use any action she makes against her. So she joked about herself later on and let the other two talk. From what I heard, Fox News had shown some camera work that went to her face which showed these expressions more.
 
Here's something I've found.

The article powiedział(a):
Kerr spoke about the importance of everyone’s voice to be heard in the decision, sweeping from the players on the roster, all the way to the executives in the front office and ownership:

“It’s important for everybody to express their views, not only players, but coaches, management and ownership… We will be deciding in the next couple of days what we want to do.”

So they were dragging their feet, passing the decision from one person to the next, and letting Curry be the public face of the delay.

This visit is supposed to take place in February. Does anyone know how far out the White House plans visit schedules for things like this? I wonder if they didn't run out the clock on this one. I'm told that's a typical strategy for a team that thinks any more plays are too much of a risk.

Forget the "Binders". Anyone remember when the MSM accused Romney of bullying a gay kid to suicide in high school or some shit like that?

Trump Colluded With Russia and Will Be Impeached, Says Maxine Waters
By Jason Le Miere On 9/23/17 at 7:30 AM
Outspoken Donald Trump critic Maxine Waters on Thursday guaranteed that there was collusion between the president and Russia and called on the black community to demand his impeachment. Waters, the long-time Democratic Congresswoman from California, has frequently called for Trump to be removed from office, citing a variety of alleged offenses.

But her latest tirade against the United States’ 45th president may be her most severe yet. Speaking at a town hall on civil rights for the Congressional Black Caucus, Waters called on the black community to step up and make their voices heard in opposition to Trump. Adding that there was no strict definition for what constituted an impeachable offense.

“How many in your organization have said ‘impeach 45?’” she said. “Impeachment is about whatever the Congress says it is. There is no law that dictates impeachment. What the Constitution says is ‘high crimes and misdemeanors,’ and we define that.

“Bill Clinton got impeached because he lied. Here you have a president, who I can tell you and guarantee you is in collusion with the Russians to undermine our democracy. Here you have a president who has obstructed justice. And here you have a president that lies every day.”

While the Constitution dictates that a president can only be removed for “treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors,” it is ultimately a political and not a legal decision. That reality is why the chances of impeaching Trump within the near future are viewed as slim to non-existent with Republicans controlling both houses of Congress.

One of Waters’ fellow California Democrats, Brad Sherman, began the process against Trump in July, filing articles of impeachment in the House of Representatives, accusing the president of obstructing justice over his firing of former FBI Director James Comey. Trump later said he had the investigation into whether he colluded with Russia on his mind when he decided to fire Comey. It has been reported in recent days that the man now leading the investigation, special counsel Robert Mueller, is seeking documents related to Trump’s dismissal of the former FBI director.

If he is impeached, Trump would become just the third president to suffer such a fate, following Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton. Both were later acquitted in the Senate. Waters, though, has already made up her mind that it is time for Trump to go.

“Thank God that the special counsel is beginning to connect the dots—and understand Facebook's role in it, social media's role in it," she continued in remarks that earned a standing ovation. “When is the black community going to say, ‘yeah, Impeach him’? It's time to go after him. I don't hear you. Don’t another person come after me and say ‘you go, girl.’ No, you go.”

If Curry isn't going to show up, I find it hard to believe anyone else would. He's the star of that team and if you show up that locker room is probably going to turn on you. If Trump reneged the entire team's invitation it's because he knows that and wants to save face. Ego is a big deal for him and having 3 or 4 players show up makes for a bad photo op.

I think both Thomas and Curry are lolcows for this. Meeting the president, even if you think he's a door knob, should be an honor. Not many people get to do that. On top of that, shifting a team event to focus on your absence is a pretty strong sign that you're an attention whore or that you think you're so good, you'll get the opportunity to meet a president you like.

The difference between Thomas and Curry will be the fallout. I doubt anything will happen to Steph Curry. Pretty much everyone in the media called Tim Thomas neurodivergent for skipping out on Obama. That ended with him going from one of the best seasons in his career in a huge market to playing for shitty teams in small markets.

Even if you don't agree that a public servant is somehow a person worthy of reverence, though, you still acknowledge they're a fellow human being. If you don't want to go meet with someone, you politely decline, the same as you would for anyone else, and wish a great time on those who are going. You certainly don't run around spazzing about how much you hate the host and how dare he invite you, and what a bad person he is for taking offense at your spazzery.

And you also don't throw basketballs indoors, but anyway.
