  1. Start to tar and feather MAGAt Congresscritters, watch them decided which is a safer course to follow, fireship Trump of a safe stable course.

  2.  @brg2743  I jumped ship on CNN months ago, saw their drift and said "screw them". Let their advertisers pay big bucks for nobody to watch the channel.

  3.  @ericpeanuts5672  yep, they used big words and anything bigger than 3 letters defeats them.

  4. Oh, give it time. Trump's notorious for convenience shoving those close that aren't family under the bus. In fairly short order, Elon will be so deep under the bus that he'll be able to inspect the transmission bolts.

  5. If tearing one's shirt apart is considered leadership, what's it called when old underwear tears apart? Godhood?

  6. There is no nuclear button. Nuclear launch orders are conducted by a telephone call, per procedures outlined in the SIOP, with verification of identity conducted by someone in the line of succession. The nuclear football, just a communications device that's encrypted and portable, with a copy of the SIOP. Given Trump never could get past a single page of text and then, rarely completing the page, the book like SIOP just is far beyond his ability to manage. I do know a wee bit about things nuclear, I did start out my military career in nukes.

  8.  @kevseb66 well, if they made you make this speech, you'd be doing the same as you think, "My careers are over, I'll never get a job - even flipping motherfucking burgers!".

  11. Just go over everything he's actually announced that he believed are frauds and scams, then watch for him to open such up for himself and in investment schemes, buy in early, pump and dump before he can, leaving him with worthless investments. He's close to broke anyway, so taking from his only income - grifts, will bankrupt him quickly.

  12. It's a bit uglier than that. The bibles in question were sold previously and poorly by Lee Greenwood, with some alt-right crap tacked inside them as well. Reviews of sales were, "Pages were sticky and stuck together", "formatting is off of the page, where can I get a replacement?". "I bought this for my elderly father and he can't read the print" and "it's been nine months, where is my bible?". Originally offered in King James and NIV versions, the NIV people sent a cease and desist letter and that version was disposed of, leaving only the old poorly transliterated King James Middle English version available. I'm not joking about any of that. I'm being as serious as COVID in a cancer patient. BTW, Trump also criticized the Almighty for incompetence, because he'd never allow his son to get killed for anybody. Nope, still not making things up. Will Rogers famously said, "I never met a man that I didn't like". Obviously, he'd have had to withdraw that statement had he had the misfortune of meeting Trump. Yes, misfortune, I met him back around 2000 when he was guest of honor at a Chamber of Commerce function for the PenJerDel region. He was such an effective and wonderful guest, the following year suffered a 95% attrition rate. He was the boor of the party. Genghis Khan would've been more welcome.

  13. Well, obviously, lying in a church is acceptable. Otherwise, wouldn't Jesus have chided the Pharisees and Sadducees? Oh wait...

  14. What government job did he apply for? As you mentioned, one has no right to a government job, we do have an enumerated right to run for public office. Why do you want to help Trump eliminate our Constitution?

  15. I'm curious though, how many days of mandatory fasting is required of a governor after an attack on people in a city in his state? The rest of the MAGA antics, I'm entirely with you on. But, bitching that he went out for dinner is way too close to using those bastards playbook. The most he could do and should have done was visiting the victims and their families to show that the state has their backs. Beyond that, he's utterly useless at this point, as there are ample investigators on scene that are doing their jobs and anything he'd manage would only hamper their efforts. And having handled disasters myself, the absolute last thing in the damned universe that I wanted was some VIP's stomping around, getting in the way and generally being a distraction. And I'd have countered their border nonsensical antics with, "Wow, MAGA has kicked Texas out of the Union, along with Colorado!". It's always good to turn their own weapons against them, so by the time I'd be done, people would actually wonder if those states are being ejected from the union by President Musk and Vice President Trump.

  16. Emperor Musk will never allow his Empress Trump to be removed, well, as long as the empress behaves as desired.

  17. Yep, Trump as president is like having a constant Crohn's flare up.

  20. Our children's math and reading scores have dropped a lot since the shutdowns, so we need to ban books from the library, including dictionaries.

  21.  @Mac-cv7pn  and oddly, the council and executive got reelected since that petition was ignored.

  22. Top scientists? I work in IT, we have tons and tons of H1B visa holders in IT fields and trust me, not a one is a scientist. It's for skilled workers, typically technical and scientific, but not exclusively so. That said, it's not properly applicable for models... But frankly, that's the least of our immigration woes, the entire process really needs to be redesigned and streamlined.

  23. This proves it! Donald Trump is really an AI - Artificial Idiocy. OK, seriously though, AI's have the same problem dementia patients have when confronted with an outside context question like he was, with confabulation ruling the day. As for referring to oneself in the third person, I do get away with it, but that's largely because I'm well known to spend a lot of time beside myself. I'll just get my hat... Trump, what a ring piece!

  24.  @jacksprat3287  he's been trying his hardest, but the wealth shield from accountability keeps protecting him. Anyone of even upper middle class would've long been stored under the jail.

  25. No can do, cancelled mine ages ago, when Elon turned the place into a cesspool.

  26. And he'd rightfully sue for false charges. Article III, Section 3, Clause 1: Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court. Congress has not declared war, so we have no enemy. He's definitely not taken up arms against the nation. Too much of a coward for that. Now, one may well be able to make a case for sedition and for championing the overthrow of our government, both also major felonies.

  27. Can't act like you're in pain when pretending to be a tough guy. It's one way to know the poseur from the real tough guy, as someone that is tough will be continuing on while obviously experiencing pain. I've got no real doubt that he got grazed on the tip of his ear by a round. First lesson, bullets aren't explosive devices, they're not phasers, they're not death rays, they're projectiles that fly while spinning and not tumbling at that range. Hell, it wouldn't even be precessing at that range. So, a 0.22 inch chunk of metal essentially sliced the outer edge of the top of one ear lobe slightly, otherwise it'd have torn the lobe significantly due to the round's characteristics on any impact and low mass. There's a term for that type of injury. It's a boo-boo. Doesn't really need a cover, as is evident when he's golfing without a dressing. Although, to give him credit, I'd still need to wear a cone on my neck, he doesn't...

  28. Having actually met him around y2k at a tri-state Chamber of Commerce function, where he was the invited speaker of honor, what you see is what you get IRL. Reality TV didn't create him at all, he's always been this way and well, he was the boor of the party. It literally was so bad that the following year, the Chambers experienced a 95% attrition in attendance and nearly cancelled the function. They then spent an entire year apologizing incessantly to their entire membership to reacquire attendance to the function. Everything had to be about him, his perfection, everything he did was self-assessed as a success - including serial bankruptcies of his casinos, generating so many eye rolls that I was astonished that the planet stayed on its axis. I did get a laugh out of a few of his more recent appearances though, where he was complaining and shooing off flies. The Lord of the Flies and the Lord of the Lies, all rolled up into one. How biblical! And people self-professing to be Christians follow that lord, the antithesis of everything Jesus of Nazareth preached about.

  29. Patience is a virtue. Besides, never interrupt an adversary while they're making a series of grievous mistakes.

  32. Ironic. Due to needing an infusion of a biologic treatment, my hep B titer was taken. Last immunized around 20 years ago and it's faded, literally in the past few years. Got the first of the series two weeks ago, scheduled for the rest. Gotta check with doctor on the 'childhood' vaccines, but I'm sure DPT would be a good idea, as well as RSV and last exposure to OPV was in 2009 (long story on that one). Although, given a 20 year half-life on the hep B, I'm sure that my smallpox titer is also low, but I'm not military medicine or first responder team for infectious diseases any longer, so my chances of being exposed to orthopox strains is minuscule.

  33.  @wildtymes2429  so, you watched "As the Stomach Churns"?

  34. I know one woman who is utterly devoted to him. Of all people, a Black woman lawyer, needless to say, his least favored groups. Totally in his thrall, beyond reason. Damned shame, she's quite bright otherwise, but got captivated and bought into the religion.

  35. Since he took office, the Supreme Court has more and more, turned straight into the Trump Court, as the sheer volume of Trump cases going to it literally threatens to swamp it. Given the additional case load, perhaps there should be additional justices to relieve the load.

  36. My apartment building is quite diverse, nearly UN kind of diverse. As in, I quite have fun sharing recipes with neighbors, as I enjoy a widely varied diet. Out of an entire 13 story tall building, there is precisely one Black neighbor who is a Trumpite and thinks that he's the neatest thing to come around since sliced bread. The rest, well, suffice it to say that he's generally loathed. Having actually met that turd around 2000 at a Chamber of Commerce event, where he was an invited speaker, well the Chamber suffered a 90+% attrition rate for the following year's event, for he was the boor of the party. Will Rogers said, "I never met a man that I didn't like", he obviously was unable to have ever met Trump. Good for Will! I'm just glad that my parents didn't live long enough to see this specimen of inhumanity.

  40. I don't like them myself. But then, if I use a straw, I use my reusable metal ones. Usually, I don't bother with a straw and well, usually don't drink soft drinks anyway. Gotta watch my figure - whenever I look down...

  42.  @earlhopkins3745  that'll not happen, what he's been convicted on would be a max of a couple of years. But, an entertaining notion is what his reaction to prison food would be.

  43. Yeah, but Trump never pays what he owes.

  44. Surviving on medicaid as well, been way too sick to work, with an absurd number of issues popping up to annoy me. Well, issues that have tried to kill me, which is positively annoying. Cataracts nearly blinded me, could literally only see six inches and closer. Thyroid nearly blew out my abdominal aorta. Crohn's is the latest saga and oh, for fun, the hyperthyroid is now turning hypothyroid because my immune system got bored. Yeah, ya need a sense of humor... Keep on slugging, although as he shreds and burns the government, things are going to start to get really dicey. And I'm certain he'll eventually destroy my VA pension and my sole income, as well as Social Security and then, people are gonna get pissed when granny is tossed onto the street. At least my shelves are stocked. Even managed to get a dozen eggs, despite the expense of the armed guards... ;) Damned bird flu and congested conditions in battery farms.

  47. Sorry, we don't send US citizens to foreign soil for questioning and torture. Some Constitution thingie says it's a no-no. Besides, he isn't worth the fuel cost. Just grill him in a regular interview room, only allowing attorneys who are properly cleared to be near him and once detained, kept in solitary, like every other prisoner that's divulged classified information has been kept.

  48.  @kathybrigger9431  well, she did not commit any act of violence against her government, nor did she pretend to hold an appointed government trusted office. There are your differences. Now, while there are no grand jury charges pending, indeed, it's unlikely a grand jury would be presented anything due to judicial immunity and well, lack of evidence that a crime has been committed, she can be held accountable by the house and tried by the senate. And frankly, she should be.

  49. More like "he should be a candidate for the next available spot in the rubber room".
