There’s a difference between knowing a lot and thinking you know a lot.

I don’t think I know a lot about Q. I don’t think they do either.

Good for you. Self reflection is healthy :sweat_smile:

Says the guy from Canada who talks US politics all day. :thinking:

Sounds like someone is jealous :rofl:. FYI I am quite knowledgeable about politics from many regions. Being American doesn’t give someone the exclusive right to discuss US American politics!!
