Look, I think some of Lee's marketing ie, "Come to TN our dime" is stupid, but I wouldn't list Lee is terrible. I didn't vote for him anyway.

I know I was extremely harsh on Lee early on in the pandemic for some of his decisions but all in all he's done a fairly decent job by leaving it up to the localities. He crapped the bed when he signed this legislation so I won't be voting for him this time around.

The whole premise is absurd just like you defending a shot that kills your immune system and makes you test positive for Covid.

It's as absurd as your belief that I've "defended" anything you just described.

"Kills your immune system" lulz.

LOL, get off OAN you goof.

At least you didn't try and defend against your false equivalency, deflection was a smarter approach.

There needs to be a train going all the way from Nashville to Gallatin and Nashville to Columbia that helps get morning commuters downtown and the Hadley Bend connector needs to get done and ASAP to make another viable way north into summer county other than 65 to vets.

Precovid MCS recorded a little fewer than 300k passenger trips. About 600 roundtrip passengers per day (5 days a week, 50 weeks per year). I omitted weekends and trips for special events.

This is not being enforced in Tennessee. Not yet anyways. I don’t know if it will be in the future or not.

A vaccine mandate was implemented at UT. Only when they realized the number of people that they were going to lose did they start giving mass exemptions.

I don't understand. Doesn't the Music City Star provide service all the way to Lebanon and stop in Gallatin?

No. Just between Lebanon and Nashville.

I listen to Democrats talk and get the feeling they need to experience real life. I listen to Republicans talk and I want to give them a hug and tell them they don't have to be so angry all the time.

No one sounds good anymore.

It's a uniparty, there is no opposition. Until we get an actual opposition party, the government will continue to suck.

Aw shoot. Yeah, Gallatin and Hendo are further north. My bad.

Based on the passenger counts on the current line, I cannot imagine 2 new rail services alleviating traffic at all.

Lee is a uniparty guy. He's no real opposition.

IDK. IMO I think service from Gallatin/Hendersonville to Nashville would help, if a Gallatin commuter wants to ride the train to Nashville they have a 20-30 minute drive just to get to the train. Depending on traffic they can drive to Nashville in about the same amount of time.

I'm glad you find humor in my post however time will prove me right, if the jabs worked you wouldn't need a ****ing booster every month. As far as OAN goes I have access to it but my channel of choice is Real America's Voice, you should try it sometime it's possible you may learn something from guests such as Robert Malone or Naomi Wolf who's a Democrat by the way..

Nah, we’re actually better off being low key and out of the spotlight. Have you seen the influx of folks into Texas and Florida because they’re always in the news?
We don’t need more hysterical screeching Dems flooding into the state trying to change it towards their viewpoint. We already have more than plenty of them here.

The Star as is is not is not set up very good and only runs up to Lebanon. They need that line to have much better options.

The star travels by current rail and is not easy to use. It needs to leave Nashville and go straight up Lebanon Pike, Gallatin Rd, and down the side of 65. There needs to be a major parking lot at concord and one at cool springs mall exit.

This would greatly increase useage.

No. It's the limited availability of the line that is killing it.

Republicans are angry because Democrats refuse to experience real life, thus making most of their talking points fantasyland stuff. 🤷‍♀️
