I feel bad for all the people that spent the last 20 years calling them lesbian slurs and making fun of their dunking abilities having to quit watching the wnba right after they started watching it this summer
Yes you missed something. She’s literally from Iowa and now plays in Indiana, 2 extremely red states. Nationally, she is the biggest and most influential female athlete right now. She’s a generational talent and with her background, it’d be easy for the uninitiated to believe she aligns with MAGA.
The media has continued to push the Midwest-white-Caitlin vs. the Southern-black-Angel Reese discourse for over a year now. It’s female sports at the intersection of race-baiting, culture wars, and political discourse.
Here are the top two (and locked) posts on r/wnba right now.
I still have no clue why Trump agreed to do that. Kamala stood to gain so much, tons of voters know nothing about her and you just gave her 2 hours of free airtime. Make her go win those swing states with as little mainstream exposure as possible.
I think it was one of the originally planned Biden vs Trump debates

He also agreed to do it, because despite what some of y'all have been worried about, he's been behind in the polls (including internal polling data he gets, other data points, etc.) leading up to this debate. If he had been clearly beating Kamala, I'm sure he wouldn't have gone through with the debate.
I’m sorry, does anyone think MAGA gives a shit about women’s basketball and does anyone think there are many MAGA WNBA players? Did I miss something with Caitlin?

They pretty much want their own version of Magic vs Bird for the Wnba. Except Cameron Brink is gonna come in and wreck some shit when she is back next season.

I don’t think I realized Jill Stein was running. I thought Cornell West was Jill Stein this time around. (I don’t care enough to google it.)
Republicans had to go hard on their spoiler 3rd party candidates. Jill Stein, Cornel West, and RFK Jr.
I still find it amusing that in my deep blue neighborhood, one house had an RFK Jr “Heal the Divide” yard sign up immediately when he announced he’d be running against Biden as a Dem a year ago. The sign stayed up all the way until a few weeks ago when he “dropped out” and endorsed Trump.

Ding ding ding. This is the answer. Trust the votes, not the polling.
I agree about the right wing polls but the notion that “when we’re losing it demobilizes” seems wrong. They were losing in 2016 and 2020 and mobilized hard. We thought we were going to lose in 2018/2022 and didn’t. Fear of losing seems like it mobilizes. Assuming you’ll win breeds complacency and gives people on the fence an excuse to stay home.

Not necessarily endorsing Seth or anything. Just also saw some of the videos of them being handsy and close up pics and I would fully believe that they are "a thing" or whatever that looks like. She's completely the type of bottom feeder that would do anything to be where she is and it pisses me off so much that such a dumb, evil person has such a place in history. Also completely believe he enjoys the female attention and touch so is going for her.
Not saying I def think there's anything there. Just saying I absolutely could see it. And if we found out years from now that she weaseled her way in and they were an item I just wouldn't be shocked

Typically, I would say that the revelation of an affair with Loomer would make for a great October surprise, but given how much everyone knows he's a philanderer already, I doubt it would move the needle at all. MAGA's angle would surely be, "Wow, look what a stud he is."
Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are going to shut down the government in order to hurt the economy so they can pin it on Biden/Harris and help Trump in his campaign, and I'm sure the media will play that up to the hilt.
Not trying to be all Shallow Hal on her, but she's kind of fugly and looks like a victim of too many plastic surgeries.
It's wild that she's only 31
Even worse. I looked better than her when I was 31. Perhaps Melania said no mas? The specific one where she's saying the White House will smell like curry* it looks like her face is as wide as it is long. Why people do all this shit to themselves, at least the ones without dysmorphia disorder idk.
* Reminds me of Trump trying to say there would be taco trucks on every corner like that's a bad thing. I try not to eat too much curry, at least Thai, because coconut milk isn't the greatest thing in the world to consume. I'm guessing Indian curries probably go more toward whey or yogurt? Still, I love the smell of Indian food which would be an improvement on the smell of McDonald's and Arfy's during the period of January 2017- January 2021

I don't suppose there's any chance Melania's memoir due out next month will be the October surprise? (Wishful thinking, I know.)
No way. The primary buyer of the thing is going to be MAGA folks, and promo she's put out for it has leaned heavily into support for her "beloved husband." Right wing grift is too profitable.
