So if Trump wins, he will probably sell Vermont back to Russia, or something

GiddyGap ,

Nah, Trump will claim he won Vermont no matter what.

Canada here, how much for just Stowe?

Knowing Stowe, way too much.

I thought the GOP was united behind you Donny?

And she’s literally already dropped out.

But by the time NBC News projected Haley’s win in Vermont Tuesday night, Trump had already won 11 other states and built on his delegate lead.

Could have just done the headline and this. The rest is pretty much just filler.

I mean, I detest Trump as much as the next sane guy, but let's not kid ourselves..

    Nikki and Donald should have a bicycle race for 1/4 mile to declare the winner.

    FiniteBanjo ,

    It would be a death too good for Trump, but I'll allow it.

    BUT NO STAND-INS!

    For those who are unfamiliar with the Imperial mile, a 1/4 mile is about 3.15 ounces.
    In metric 1/4 km would be 250 meters, because metric makes sense, and k means thousand, and a quarter of a thousand is.... TADA 250! Go figure.
    In Imperial 1/4 mile isn't 250 anything, or any other round number of any unit that would make sense, because imperial is stupid, making any conversion a chore. Yet some people keep using it because reasons?

    dhork ,

    What do you mean? 1/4 mile is 15,840 inches. Totally logical.

    Buffalox ,

    Ah yes silly me. Now it all makes sense. 😋

    That was hilarious.😉
    Ah yes flaffenfeit too, where 1 square foot of cotton increased 23 degrees flaffenfeit is 728 megajoule.
    But in metric 1mm3 water = 1gram, increased 1C°= 1 calorie.
    I'd say one of those systems is better, and it aint imperial.

    A mile was originally "mille passus", which was Latin for 1000 paces because that's what it was, making 1/4 mile 250 paces. Not exactly precise by modern standards, but actually a logical measure for walkable distances.

    Buffalox ,

    That's some pretty long paces? So why not use those instead of yawns? Then at lest there would be 1 point where imperial made sense. Not much, but better than nothing.

    agamemnonymous ,

    A pace is two steps. The Roman gradus, or step, was half of that, roughly in the neighborhood of a yard.

    You know trump would use an electric bike

    Grandwolf319 ,

    If it’s all downhill and Donnie can keep the wheels straight, he might win cause of gravity.

    Gork ,

    If she really wants to get under Trump's skin, she should set her campaign slogan to, "I'm with Her."

    Tactical misgendering?

    A bold move, lets see how it plays out.

    Pithy and inaccurate

    Like political discourse in America.

    You're welcome. I was sitting on that for you.

    Peppycito ,
    @Peppycito@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Shallow and pedantic.

    You only feel that way because you aren't trying, don't believe it.

    Yawn

    TropicalDingdong ,

    Yeah she needed to win Virginia for this to have any real meaning.

    She has no events scheduled after today.

    I still thin she should stay in, just in case, just to be annoying.

    Fermion ,

    Trump has to be less than 1000 big macs from a massive heart attack. She should stay in the race as the contingency candidate.

    Bytemeister ,

    I don't think a lack of blood flow to trump's brain would meaningfully affect his outward appearance and behavior.

    Fermion , (edited )

    Yeah, but Trump probably hates Sanders enough to explicitly forbid a weekend at Bernie's arrangement. Even though that logic doesn't make any sense, that doesn't preclude it as a possibility.

    Plus we know from Giuliani that warm temperatures makes the makeup start to drip. Masking a corpse until November would take too much coordination to be a successful undertaking for the Trump campaign.

    So like 3 weeks or what?

    Until he declares RFK his running mate or some shit, and the next day he becomes the GOP frontrunner.

    I haven't checked, did they make the new McBurgers better or just cheaper production cost?

    🎶we need you, Nikki, right nooowwwww 🎶

    Oh wow that's a suprise.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Ambassador Nikki Haley has won the Republican presidential primary in Vermont, NBC News projects — her first Super Tuesday win amid a deluge of other state calls for former President Donald Trump.

    Despite the narrow Haley victory in Vermont, Trump is expanding his national delegate lead with wins in other Super Tuesday contests.

    In a memo ahead of the Jan. 23 New Hampshire primary, the Haley campaign wrote that “there is significant fertile ground for Nikki” on Super Tuesday due to those rules.

    Of the 874 delegates available on Super Tuesday, roughly two thirds are in states with open or semi-open primaries,” the memo added.

    At that event, Haley told the crowd, “I’m going to keep on fighting,” because, “70% of Americans say they don’t want Donald Trump or Joe Biden.”

    But by the time NBC News projected Haley’s win in Vermont Tuesday night, Trump had already won 11 other states and built on his delegate lead.
