So disagreeing with fellow party members makes you a traitor? I thought having a difference of opinion was a main tenet of American politics (and society).

What if the tables were turned and the Republicans were pushing a taking over of the election process.

I guess Rinos and Dinos are both traitors according to the extremists. Why the hell do the extremists command so much of our attention? Maybe it's because the media knows our desire to watch car chases and train wrecks?

Very interesting......., many of us see this, we have more in common than not, we understand it is Hollywood, Liberals and their deep rooted connection to politicians that run a narrative that is baseless and untrue. I have said man a time, if Hollywood and the media would just be 10% more honest elections would dramatically change. Maybe this movie is a start, holding my breath of course... Yahoo Movies: Matt Damon on playing red-state roughneck in ‘Stillwater’: ‘There’s so much more common ground than we think’
Kevin Polowy·Senior Correspondent, Yahoo Entertainment Thu, July 29, 2021, 8:00 AM
Socially and politically, Matt Damon sits on the opposite end of the spectrum from Bill Baker. That’s the character the actor portrays in Stillwater, writer-director Tom McCarthy’s dramatic thriller very loosely inspired by the story of Amanda Knox about an American dad desperately attempting to free his college-aged daughter (Abigail Breslin) from a French jail after she’s convicted of murder.
Damon is a wealthy Hollywood liberal. Baker is a struggling Oklahoma oil rig worker, or “roughneck,” who is conservative and who, Damon has said, would have voted for Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. To prepare for Stillwater, Damon and McCarthy spent weeks in Oklahoma engulfed in red-state roughneck culture.
Damon admits he took on the part to connect with Americans who have vastly different viewpoints.
“And help everybody better understand,” he says. “And also it’s a great reminder for me just in researching this and going down to Oklahoma and hanging with these roughnecks that I always leave those research trips kind of angry at politicians for stoking those divides as much as they do.

There seems to be quite a few of these guys that aren't so hard left. In fact, I'll bet there really aren't that many hard left, or hard right, people. It's just that the middle doesn't help the media sell viewership.

Two months ago Jay Leno burned his face off in a garage fire. Now he's broken his collarbone, two ribs and both kneecaps while riding a motorcycle across a parking lot and getting clotheslined by a wire he didn't see strung across the lot. Does this guy need a full-time babysitter or what?

Nice look for the Grammys. It's been a few minutes since I've last seen one of these. It's, uh, different now.

And to top it off, the awards were sponsored by Pfizer. You can't make that up either.
