    I literally think Dame could be mayor if he wanted to. He’s be good at it, too.

    Please, we need to keep politics out of the main forum.

    I know it's difficult but let's focus on Dame, what a great man we have leading our favorite team.

    The Trump shit needs to stop or I will have to move this thread to the OT section.

    Thanks.

    Dame is a prime example of a Community Leader. The letter O is for Oregon and the state is lucky to have that.

    He says some goofy stuff, but that is not what he said. He was talking about equality/equal justice under the law that he is insisting on.

    He absolutely did not and this is a false media narrative that's being debunked all over twitter. The video is available.

    In fact, here's the correction just published by the WASHINGTON POST:

    CORRECTION
    A previous version of this story incorrectly said that the president called the jobs report a “great day” for George Floyd, the black man killed by white police in Minneapolis. In fact, the president was referring to growing calls for equal justice under the law.

    Sure he could - have you forgotten the previous ones? There's a lot to choose from.

    It's disappointing that there is so much fake news out there....and on purpose. There was another story about how dire the uneployment situation was and that it was near 20% when in reality, it dropped by 2,500,00. Journalism from the vast majority of the media is dead. Sadly, people still believe much of the blatant untruth.

    There's no way this thread isnt political, it's based on Dame protesting police brutality....

    It's kind of why i put an "OT" title on it. Probably should have just posted it in the OT section and let it go full on Trump bashing.

    There was one in Tualatin, so it may be a legit question.
