I have a weird thought sometimes: maybe it will turn out drumpers are descendants of Neanderthals, while the rest of us homo sapiens?

(72,315 posts)The Neanderthals had empathy. They took care of their sick and injured, and mourned their dead. Calling the Trumpsters Neanderthals is an insult to Neanderthals.

(26,525 posts)Love that stuff - anthropology and such like that, too.
Did not know that about Neanderthals. I started to read the book "Sapiens" by Harari a couple years ago but found it too depressing (basically, they everything they touch, dies...). Maybe in the future...

See also: Sheriff of Nottingham.
Law enforcement always supports right-wing establishment power and wealth. That's why the sheriff of Nottingham is an archetypal character.

(2,574 posts)Joe Biden campaigners were forced to cancel an event in Texas on Friday as tensions flared in the key battleground state ahead of election day.
Local Democrats said they were forced to pull the plug on a gathering scheduled to take place in Pflugerville a small city about 17 miles north of Austin due to "security reasons".
It came as vice-presidential candidate, senator Kamala Harris, completed a whistle-stop three-city tour of the Lone Star state in a last-minute bid for votes.
Traditionally a Republican stronghold, the battle for Texas's 38 electoral college votes is likely to go down to the wire.

I have a awful feeling that the next few days will get worse.
