    That top one is the reason I can’t watch soccer. What a lame thing to watch a professional athlete do.

            Eventually, though the transition was gradual. We are watching the transition happen live in front of our eyes with Donald Trump, who already preemptively has the legal ability to assassinate his political rivals if he were to so choose. However, he did “not” actually overthrow the government - do you see the difference? Yeah, I’m not sure I do either, but some people claim to, so there’s that, and somehow that seems to make all the difference in the world, in terms of people not wanting to fight back.

      Tell me, you’ve never watched an entire match without telling me, you’ve never watched an entire match.
