Funny-ish.

Listened to an interesting interview with Will Hurd, former Texas Senator running for president. Seemed like a smart guy, understands how nations work internationally. If I were American I’d want to know more about his platform.

You sure you don't want to know more about even further right wing Vivek Ramaswamy? Can't believe that guy is ticking up in the polls

I actually respect that he answers questions and overtly states his opinions. I disagree with pretty much everything he says but at least he isn’t a marshmallow.

True true, I can agree with that. I mean, I think he's insanely opportunistic and probably doesn't even believe all the things coming out of his mouth (playing to a specific base), but he'll at least put his position out in the open for people to judge him on. No wishy washy answers.

When questioned about “woke-ism” at an event he said he didn’t actually believe in the narrative, he’s moved on from that, though he’ll still bring it up when the audience is right.

Basically, when you’re speaking to morons, dumb down your talking points…

Really hope he doesn't get anywhere... but it seems like he's positioning himself to jump on the MAGA train after it's driver dies or goes to jail. Which will be somehow worse?

Yeah, he’s gathering the idiots to him for when the Orange meatball inevitably chokes on a Big Mac.

Proud Boys’ Enrique Tarrio gets 22 years in prison for Jan. 6 riots. Yikes. Funny thing, he wasn’t even in Washington DC when poop went down.

She’s an incredible athlete, an inspiration to all Canadians and hot as hell to boot (not that that matters, much).

She’s maybe not the champion we wanted, but she’s the champion we need, to further the pickle ball agenda!

Most likely.
There's a certain annoyingly familiar cadence to his posts.

Yeah, there no such thing as tone in a text, except where N4U/Nuckup is concerned.

How’s your team looking this year? Seems to be A LOT of optimism in the Canuck threads.

“I hope your second post is better than the first”

Just sounds like someone has worn out another user name.

Or....someone's user name is banned and this is a new one. 🤔 🤷‍♂️

Not Quinn, and honestly I don't believe QQ is N4U or whatever he was called.

SVR has posted the same question in about ten different blogs, this is the 1st group that has answered him, you guys really care, 🥰

Maybe, maybe not, but you can’t deny the styles are similar.

Also, Canuck fans are notoriously clique and conceited…
