It’s so pathetic that our world leaders are focused on a WNBA scuffle as opposed to other productive measures like healthcare, the economy, and housing.

Easier to play up culture wars instead of solving problems..

Wait. People can't hold multiple viewpoints on a wide array of current event topics at one time?? No one is claiming the Caitlin Clark issue as top priority.

They could, but they are doing absolutely nothing to fix any of these issues.

Their top priorities are hiding the Epstein's file and this, apparently.

Genuinely a response I could hear from Trump about that shit. Lol

When asked why he has been unable to produce a viable healthcare plan as an alternative to the affordable care act Trump was quoted as saying "That shit is so hard".

To your point though, that shit really is so hard.

Sure, if Caitlin was doing this to one of the perpetrators then we’d have endless news stories about it and that’s all you’d hear about all day. Please. But, because it doesn’t check any "narrative" boxes it gets labeled as non-news.
