Back in the 1980's, A&W tried to add a third (1/3) pound burger to compete with McDonald's popular quarter (1/4) pounder. It failed they found because so many people thought that 1/3 was less than 1/4.
And that helps me understand how/why people voted for Trump.

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.
Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.
We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

Hi, immunologist here:

RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation”
That’s NOT how immunology works.
He is an anti-science profiteer.
Start calling him such.
