I'm a fan of your stuff, but I’m just not going to agree with you on this one. He chose to stay. He’s gotta deal with that to some extent.

The organization wasn’t worthy of Anthony Davis; definitionally, it is not worthy of receiving a trade package equal to his value. Take what you can get in exchange for the guy you alienated, scrubs!

I know this doesn’t always work for the legions of fans who do the armchair GM “Gotta Get Assets!” thing but I really think that for the Pelicans it’s really best if they just take the best deal they have out there and move on. Sure, maybe the Boston deal is marginally better or LA makes their deal a little bit better

I would say they view her a bit differently. She is the rube that is going to help hand them political power. Other than that you are pretty much right.

Republicanism is like a dozen donuts on a table where a rich guy, a poor white guy, and a poor black guy are sitting. The rich guy comes, takes 11 donuts, then says to the poor white guy “that black guy wants your donut!”

The problem is that these people are blaming Trump when they should be blaming the Republican Party as a whole. It wasn’t just Trump who scammed them. The entire GOP including the sainted John McCain screwed them. This is the problem with focusing on Trump as the source of all evil. He’s just the avatar. The entire

Anyone who can’t do this math: votes Republican...but shouldn’t.

Racism is a hell of a drug.

“There’s no valid financial reason for the vast majority of Republican voters to vote Republican.”

This is how Republicans keep winning.  They quite literally steal from their base, and then blame the broke person.

How To Vote Your Interest:

They don’t live together. 

That is pretty much what I said in my living room, though I think I went with “I quit. You don’t get to give me orders anymore, bitch!”

“That five agents at the DEO know Supergirl’s secret identity feels like a pretty massive thing for the show to just offhandedly reveal.”

When Haley said “That’s an order” to Supergirl I REALLY wanted her to say “I don’t work for you anymore”. A “bitch” tacked onto the end would have also been welcome.

I expected this would end up with one of the Morai on the verge of killing Haley and Alex letting it in order to keep Kara’s secret.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Alex turns villain at some point, even if only for an episode or two.

Do you suppose those five agents were the only ones who knew her identity because so many people die while working for the DEO?

If anything that felt like too few DEO agents who were in on Supergirl’s secret, but this is not a show that’s tremendously concerned with consistency from season to season — that’s what network changes and showrunner switches will get you.
