I've heard often from Trump supporters: "he's not PC, but he's smart and he has a plan, so it's ok if he's a scumbag". Here's our 4D president, in his own words: Mar 3: "We won the war." Mar 6: “We don’t need people to join wars we already won”. Mar 7: "We defeated Iran." Mar 9: "We must...

Trump: I thought it was me as a doctor, I removed it because people were confused Vance: It was totally a joke, everyone is so thin skinned. Which is it?

Called it in the other thread. Trump always retreats when the consequences start to loom. He declares victory and tucks tail.

From Owasso, but living in Indiana now - would absolutely be interested if I was still there! Keep up the great work of spreading science to the local community.

One of two things will happen this week, possibly today: 1) Trump will 'declare victory' and say that the straights are open. 2) The Epstein files are so damning he'll go all in and announce a ground invasion around southern Iran to secure the straights. Neither are likely to lower oil...

Right, let's just legislate the greediness out of people, that always works. You can keep 'x'ing my posts or put boring responses to them, but I'm trying to engage with you. I even said "I don't want people to be in poverty, no one does". I'm saying the thing you think will help people will...

POTUS is really about launch attacks on Mexico to distract from this. Don't let up. If you care about this at all - PLEASE write your reps and senators tell them you want the focus on the full release of the Epstein files. Tell them to exert their constitutional power and be on the right...

What....? The only time we've ever grown greater than 10% is during WW2. Not even immediately after - literally just during the war. In the last 50 years, we've only hit above 5% twice. 1984 and 2021 (COVID recovery). This dude is gonna kill us all.

Simplistic, but no. I don't want anyone to be poor. I'm saying that locking minimum wage to higher and higher numbers will keep poor people poor. It's counter-intuitive, but the more open the marketplace is, the better the odds of people escaping poverty. It doesn't mean everyone will, but...

This is an area where I veer hard right (or off on to some weird Z access). The morality that says the government has no business telling consenting adults what they can and can't do in the bedroom or whether anyone has the right to take their own life is the same that say employment is a...

Man, I wrote a response to this like four times trying to cache it in proper terms and not have some guys come knocking on my door. Discretion has prevailed though. IF that does end up being the case, I'll post my response.

Well there's some learning for me. I thought only 50% was required after impeachment charges had been brought.

What's gonna be real fun is when the dems take the house and senate, impeach Trump, and he refuses to go because it was all 'rigged'.

Republicans are going to get wiped out in the midterms if this continues. You can feel some of them starting to squirm. Everyone - PLEASE write to your rep and senators. State and Federal. Let them know not only where your vote is going, let them know where your money is going. If you...

I would also disagree with that sentiment. I'd anecdotally measure left 2A approval at 25-30% with the right being 90%+. But all the same, this is what it's there for. "People shouldn't be afraid of their government. A government should be afraid of its people."
