    Heard it directly from someone familiar with Mandel's mouth... His strategy is to try to get banned from Twitter and use it as a rallying cry. There's really no other path to victory over Timken/Vance/Kasich et al in the primary unless he somehow becomes the victim of a culture war. While his rhetoric is racist, xenophobic, and wrong - I do get a certain degree of schadenfreude watching a single man's avarice and moral pliability ruin his own career and a family name that took decades to build in Northeast Ohio. For the Office fans in the forum - Mandel is to Trump what Andy Bernard was to Michael Scott early on in the office - the consummate "yes man"

    Lol! I actually like JD Vance - I think his intelligence leads to pandering, and I'm just concerned that could turn into a Hawley / Cruz sort of thing. Re: Money. Look at Georgia - it literally was the difference between stimmy and no stimmy - Senate races will only get more expensive as the country stays polarized

    Vance is a more likeable Tom Cotton, imo.

    It gives the city a "bazooka" so to speak, in the event that a sale is ever necessary, it will fetch a pretty penny

    He's also the reason we still have Cleveland Public Power
  6. Agreed - Nonetheless, I think the project actually ended up looking better than the renderings (which were admittedly ugly as sin)
  7. KEEP IT OUT OF FRANK JACKSON'S HANDS

    Lol yes - and unfortunately there's case law to support this. Nonetheless, I always shovel and just assume my mailman won't try to bankrupt me

    I once had a law professor who explained that, as a homeowner, you're better off not shoveling snow from your porch. The moment you begin shoveling, you assume a responsibility for its condition.

    No - and as a lawyer I'd recommend against it. If you acknowledge some sort of inherent danger or fallibility then you'd also (arguably) be assuming some responsibility for it - and therefore liability. Law school turns you into a bad neighbor.
  11. Really coming along. It looks like it will have a nice relationship with Franklin
  12. My mom hadn't missed a Michael Stanley concert since my state football championship game in 2008. She was an absolute diehard.
  13. ^Looks great. I really hope they can take advantage of the summer and get opened by June 1
  14. No... I'm just referencing their mere, counterproductive existence
  15. Cleveland CC: "Let's make sure we do what we can to support rail transit!" Ohio general assembly:
  16. Tbh - height in the Flats won't add much to the skyline anyways, as it's already 80'-100'ish lower than the rest of Downtown, so I'm not too disappointed.
  17. Down 41% YTD in my "fun" portfolio. :|
  18. Progress on the MyPlace development on Franklin. They’re really cruising.
  19. What other cities still have this?
  20. For all of those in opposition to street level transit - can you tell me how many people died from this?
  21. ^Look at all the people on that trolley
  22. Det Shoreway 501c3 supported their decision... bleh
  23. Copy this and you’ll be able to paste it to the thread in 2024 and it’ll be just as applicable
  24. I am trying not to be insensitive... But they've had over a decade to save this building, and it just sat vacant
