Aren't we?  How much of the budget to defend the US goes to Anthropic,
to contribute to the job of defense of the country?

And neither was the person that John refers to.  Even if referring to
the states, a "clean sweep" would refer to all the states, not just
the states that were most likely to go one way or the other, no matter
how much one may try to falsely claim that the only votes that matter
were the likeliest ones to change.  Obama and Reagan were much closer
to electoral clean sweeps.

Making blatantly false claims like that is boring.
