But it was only ever about party. Because the only principle the Republican party has atm is that anything they do to hold onto majority power as a minority is good & anything that reduces their majority power in favor of the people's majority is bad.
Not a great outing for Semedo. Or for Pauno using Semedo.
Joao only registered 7 touches, hence his score.
Combo rating top 3: 1. Meite [3] 2. Moore [8*] 3. Richards [5]
Meite's 1st time there.
With Joao sitting most game, Moore took over season lead. Suppose it's time to start thinking about _why_ he's more effective this year. Some will just say he's playing better. Okay, but...
My working theory: Pauno's 2 mids give more immediate shield/recover on his side (as does move away from Bowen's man-marking in mid, along w offering clearer picture), Laurent more disciplined in def duties than Pele, & more focus on big switch/over top keep him from letting off.
Can we talk about the cognitive dissonance required of a party politician?
A thread about @SenAlexander and his thoughts on the impeachment of President Trump v the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett:

Here's @SenAlexander, Senator from my state, Tennessee. He's a Republican. A good Republican.
Once, running for President, he warned, “The worst thing we could do is to replace the arrogant empire we defeated with an arrogant empire of our own.”

You may remember that the current president, Donald Trump, was impeached for withholding Congressionally-appropriated funds from Ukraine in order to coerce that country into investigating American citizens (& political rivals).
