    To be fair, all three are insane racists. Trump's just honest about. Either of those three would be disastrous.

    To be fair, you're proving his point about buying your way to success.

    Trump has spent relatively very little money on his campaign. If you could straight up buy national elections, Jeb would be decisive winner. Although I don't know if this is really the appropriate thread to discuss Donald Trump.

    Analogy works better on the Democratic side, where party-connections, media support, and all the other sort of prestige marks of wealth have determined the course of the race.

    Yeah, it's purely from a money standpoint on both sides.

    Jeb blew thru 100 mill. He essentially said he was running, looked at the field, realized it looked bad and just raised some money for himself, and it looks like he'll get to take home 24 million dollars, there are rules, but with PACs the loops holes are pretty huge.

    Enh, I'd argue Trump is leading BECAUSE he's a billionaire who has huge amounts of press attention due to his various previous expeditures. But it's a fair point about campaign spending in this particular election.

    I'm proud of everyone for their civil discourse regarding politics.

    I think everyone with a brain is just so embarrassed about how fucked up it is, they just couldn't.

    Is Jerry talking about Clash Royale or another, unnamed game when he's talking about "a Korean free-to-play Monopoly"?

    I appreciate the sad look Tycho has when he confirms his daughter's belief.

    I thought that was his son...

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    I assumed he was talking about Game of Dice? I've tried that game and it has all the elements that I like but it was just too loud/busy on the screen. I couldn't figure out exactly what I was suppose to be doing.

    Thanks for this, Jerry can sometimes get a bit Byzantine in his phrasing and the boy does go off on tangents :)
