    Are u gaslighting me lol... we have been persuading you for days and to date ur only rebuttal is “my dads coworkers uncle said Biden is gonna Duk R Jubz”. If someone has been operating in bad faith here it’s not me.

    And man for another thing, one of the left critiques of Biden has been he’s a corporate dem. As a senator from Delaware way too cozy with big business. It was my understanding you associate with that branch of political thought. Now suddenly, bc some of your friends f--- w petro, you just Defer to the notion Biden will crush the houston economy. Which is it?

    and again, ur saying ur not engaging in bad faith while in the same breath dismissing the POV of those effected

    Biden and Trump are both corporate shills I just think Trump would shill for my hometown more

    Apparently skip stalks all his friends 24/7 & knows with absolute certainty whether or not they vote. And if they do vote, he knows exactly who they voted for & why they voted the way they did!! He obviously deserves all the credit if they do anything short of voting for a Republican!

    As much as you want to stroke your ego right now, maybe, just maybe, you should reevaluate & consider how people smarter than both of us have researched vote choice for decades & have found this isn’t how voters determine their vote choice. You keep trying to apply your anecdotes as the standard—they’re not.

    I haven’t lol. I just think the perspective of experts and actual energy/business leaders, and facts. is worth considering besides vague anecdotes from dudes u drink with.

    and yes the block of text u reupped was incorrect. I shared Actual job figures about hiring going on in new energy industries in ur hometown, and sample salaries . What is going on here lol

    dude what ? do u not have any close friends? I’m not taking about some dude I went to hs with and ain’t seen in years I’m talking about ppl I talk to on a daily or semi daily basis. Yes we share our thoughts and views and yes they tell me when something I’ve said convinced them to believe something they otherwise didn’t. It’s called interaction mf

    show me where this effects the Houston work force or is compellingly related in any way to my initial point, which was circled around from page 75 until page 79/80 when the actual energy industry info was posted

    reread from page 75 on and quote the exact post in which you feel like you compellingly delivered an argument to trump being better for the Houston work force that WASNT the post u just made 30 mins ago

    Glad you have social interactions. Really happy for you. However, your drunk Saturday night with the boys doesn’t totally wipe away a plethora of political science research lol. Whatever your friends concede to you after downing 5 beers doesn’t mean it ultimately impacts their vote choice. Maybe they concede to your argument & then an hour later change their mind. Vote choice & political opinions are complex. This s--- isn’t simple.

    and even if I were to concede that your anecdote is entirely accurate & true, it’s still just that, an anecdote. It’s not a peer reviewed research hypothesis about vote choice, it’s your own personal stories which, I’m sorry, don’t hold much weight.
