The Ultimate Fighting Championship folks.
Trump is a historically unpopular president. He polls at 40% but only half that strongly support him. The vast majority hate him or are defending him only out of partisan reflexiveness.
The only places Trump is not likely to get booed at are his own rallies & maybe white evangelical churches. Wide swaths of the population see him as toxic.
I'm puzzled that people are saying Trump got booed "even" at a MMA event. The fans of MMA are young & diverse -- it's a naturally anti-Trump crowd.

1. I've heard some people say that Biden is being cynical here, that he really doesn't believe this & is just saying it because it appeals to the older, centrist Dems who are his base. I want to argue on behalf of Biden's sincerity. He really thinks this.
2. The thing with Biden is that trans-ideological friendship isn't just a matter of rhetoric, it's a core part of his identity. It always has been, which is why he has so many stories about working with the likes of Strom Thurmond.
3. Biden is a man neither of the left or the right, but of elite friendship. He's buddy Biden, the guy who can bring people together and make deals. The enormous personal tragedies he's suffered is part of that -- it's made him open to people.

1. I have to say, I thought I'd never want to read another word on Scorsese & Marvel movies. I was wrong. This Scorsese op ed is excellent. nytimes.com/2019/11/04/opi…
2. Scorsese's real concern (obvious from his original remarks) wasn't about Marvel movies but about the diminishing theatrical spaces for non-franchise movies. That's a legitimate concern -- one that you don't have to dislike Marvel movies (or like Scorsese movies) to share
3. In terms of the dilemma of directors like Scorsese, Coppola, Bill Forsyth etc. in the age of franchise, it strangely mirrors the experience of artists like Don Heck (1929-1995) & Gene Colon (1926-2011) in the comic book industry as superheroes came to dominate.

1. Sanders and Warren are going to face a lot of headwind going forward, and one major source will be Nancy Pelosi.
2. Pelosi's interview with Bloomberg News was a pretty explicit shot-across-the-bow, letting Democrats know she'll stand in the way of a Green New Deal, Medicare for All & really any expansive policy commitments.
3. Some thoughts on how Sanders & Warren could deal with resistance from the congressional Democratic leadership. thenation.com/article/warren…

Why aren't Americans taking about the foreign influence in the US government that continues to send our men and woman to fight immoral wars?

#Trump when he campaigned for president, before he decided to let Adelson fund his campain!

Adelson was one of the biggest donors to Trumps presidential campain. Adelsons company saved 670 million dollars from the massive republican tax break. Adelson did not support the Iran deal & wanted the US embassy moved to Jerusalem.

Adelson has a direct line to #potus!

Adelson has private in-person meetings & phone conversations about once a month with #Trump!

Adelson used his access to move the embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and cut aid to Palestinians.

President #Trump will meet with the President of Switzerland at the White House tomorrow. 🤔🤔🤔
I see several media people stating it probably has to do with Iran, which could very well be....

In the statement, though, it says they will discuss "matters such as Switzerland's role in facilitating diplomatic relationships AND OTHER INTERNATIONAL ISSUES."

I wonder if anything will come up about the Swiss banks and related investigations that have been going on. 🤔

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

#Trump used the same trick as George W did in Florida. By removing voters of color in 28 states, Trump supposedly won the electoral college.
