Apparently Sanders and Trump agree on somethng. MTB will love that! They both want to save stupid people from themselves. https://www.indiatoday.in/world/us-news/story/bernie-sanders-open-to-teaming-with-trump-on-curbing-credit-card-interests-2634568-2024-11-16

He does have an unhealthy alliance with Putin, but there are conservatives in this country that are driving him as well. There are multiple forces which are using him as a conduit.

My feeling is that he is not deliberately trying to harm the country. He doesn't give a **** about the country. He only cares about himself.

One of them might be President.

It's not Sanders's fault they lost this year. Get over it.

I like Scott Livingstne. They should get him signed up long-term before he gets too expensive.

You are probably right.

This one hits close to home since most of our work is connected to that agency.

Starting out with a fortune makes it easier to be that way whereas building from the ground up requires a lot more know how.

I always though Musk looked kind of effeminate. I wonder if his hatred and abuse of his kid was really projection.

His death might just make it worse. Who are the alternatives? JD Vance. He probably wouldn't impulsively start a nuclear war, I guess.

One could argue that the 55 or so percent that didn't vote at all don't give a **** and wouldn't know if they were in a dictatorship.

Is it true that Boebert is going to be the secretary of education? Or is that just a joke. I can't tell anymore.

Do we know anymore that the majority of people will mind living with the consequences? We have assumed that most Americans would not want a right wing authorotarian dictatorship, but maybe they actually do.

freak show

I'd be wary of Bohm. He is not a good fielder and has had one year (2024) with more than 1 WAR. In that one year, he didn't hit in the second half.

There is no immediate crisis now, just the potential of some really bad stuff down the road. I am not quite as alarmed as some here are, but I think there is real chance for slow erosion of democracy and freedoms. That's not the tangible thing that will make non-voters vote though. What it will take for the Democrats to get back in control is bad economy during Trump's presidency and a candidate that people can get behind. You can't predict that far ahead.

I don't care. Nobody should want to see people killed over politics.

Not caring if people get deported and killed because they didn't vote the way you wanted sounds very Trumpy to me.

True, They already tried that and failed miserably.

It's all about timing. In 2020, we were in the middle of the worst public health crisis of our lifetimes. The whole country was shut down due to Covid and the president wasn't taking it seriously - denying that it was real, making jokes about it, blaming it on everyone else and wondering whether it would be helpful if everyone injected themselves with disinfectant. His complete incompetence and stupidity made past non-voters want to vote for him in hopes that they they could get their lives back to normal again. There was no such crisis this time around, so non-voters went back to being non-voters again.

Can I assume you'll disapprove when Trump pardons all of them?

The one thing you'll never get a response to is the Pence thing. That is the one thing I have noticed that made even makes election deniers a little uncomfortable.

I think anything dealing with something like tax cuts will go through. I can see where something like eliminating the Dept will be viewed as unnecessary and not necessarily beneficial to their constiuents.

There's a reason why education sucks... There's a reason why it will never be fixed... The owners of this country don't want that... They want obedient workers... https://www.google.com/search?q=george+carli+education&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS1097US1097&oq=george+carli+education&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQABgNGIAEMgkIAhAAGA0YgAQyCQgDEAAYDRiABDIJCAQQABgNGIAEMggIBRAAGBYYHjIICAYQABgWGB4yCAgHEAAYFhgeMggICBAAGBYYHjIKCAkQABiABBiiBNIBCDYwMzBqMGo0qAIAsAIB&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:e8e5d063,vid:sNXHSMmaq_s,st:0
