    And somehow this is news…. Can we get Pat Sajak to weigh in? What about Bob Eubanks? Clearly we need to know what game show hosts think!

      It shines a spotlight on the fact that Newsome has suddenly pivoted on this transgender issue. (basically as a precursor to running for president) And people should know that this shithead has no actual integrity and will do or say whatever it takes to get the conservatives to like him more for the general election (he’s pretty confident that Dems will choose him regardless of his policies apparently.) So, if he’s altering his policy on transgender youth, it almost certainly means that he’s gonna attempt the Democrats continually failing strategy of appealing to conservatives.

        It’s little more than an outrage piece designed to provoke anger and get page hits.

        It’s a nothing-burger. I would bet money that prior to this piece, no one here or anywhere wondered what the host of Jeopardy thought of Gavin Newsom.

        And therein lies my point.

          If he was saying that newsom was right to throw trans people under the bus where you think they belong, you wouldn’t be griping.

                Man, looking through your comment history…

                You sure do seem to think you know the motivation behind what others think, feel, do… are you some sort of actuary? Maybe a mind reader? Perhaps you have a PhD in psychological profiling?

                If it’s none of these things, then you are by far- the most perfect example of “everyone that disagrees with me is a fascist/racist/genocider/nazi/etcetera… that I’ve ever seen.

                It’d be funny if it weren’t so sad.

                  And yet you’re still griping because Ken Jennings of all people isn’t anti-trans enough for you.

                    There you go again pretending to know what I’m about.

                    Get help man. This seems like it’s a serious issue with you. You don’t know shit about anyone, and seem obsessive about insisting you do.

          Before this “outrage piece” I had no idea that Newsom had come out against trans athletes. So it definitely serves a purpose other than click bait.

      Are you saying his opinion doesn’t matter because he’s a game show host? What do you know about his qualifications? Have you ever looked him up?

        He’s saying his opinion doesn’t matter because he doesn’t want anyone to read it.

          You’re invalidating his opinion by creating false criteria (being “news”) then failing it arbitrarily. You’re not offering definitions or reasoning, so I’m asking some leading questions to give you a chance to redeem yourself.

          But instead of answering, you backpedaled. So now you are dismissed.

          Hitchens’s razor: What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

          Bye bye :)

            Oh noooooooo! A random person named “stinky” dismissed my opinion of what is considered “news” on an unpopular social media platform! I suppose I should go walk into the ocean now as one generally doesn’t recover from things like this I’d imagine.

            For the record, I didn’t backpedal. I simply pointed out that your accusation was unfounded and inaccurate and attempted to put the discussion back on to the point I made, not the one you made for me. So, maybe learn what backpedaling means?

            Oh, and also- You probably should look up what invalidating means. Saying it isn’t news isn’t invalidating it. For example: I think my opinions are valid, but they’re not worthy of a news article. And that he’s just a game show host- his political opinion carries about the same weight as mine does.

            Best maybe you just get yourself a dictionary.

            Toodles! :)
