I’m not sure whether he’s right or wrong. Trump was bleeding old white seniors. I don’t know that this makes them feel comfortable. It would drive black vote that’s for sure. Biden has multiple paths for victory, but I sure like having seniors in the column I’m cheering for.

Side note, heard your boy Michael Lewis on Simmons yesterday. Laughed at him talking about Trump ignoring all Obama team and his thinking that.”this guys is going to get us killed. I just wasn’t sure how.” I’m sure that quote is off. I’m paraphrasing. Heard he has how own podcast now, you in heaven? Does it deliver?
Thanks for the Simmons/Lewis heads up. I really can’t procrastinate on my sports any longer either, I suppose.

I am aware of his podcast. I don’t follow. He can come off as a whiney liberal. Even more annoying is that he is always right.

I think he is an incredible writer and he has lived a life blessed by chance connections and acquaintances. He runs better than anyone I can think of. Example: Blind Side was some black kid who he saw in his high school buddy’s house. Hell, Solomon Brothers and Liars Poker was just a lucky dinner seating next to an employee’s wife. He didn’t even have to interview during a time when it was ultra competitive

Honestly, I didn’t jump on “The Fifth Risk”. Knowing his liberal bent prejudiced my willingness to invest my time. Fast forward and it proved to be a freaky foreshadowing of Trump’s COVID shit show. Precisely why there was no preparation or response was laid out for you.
