I'd try one for $29.99, that's about it though.

right, I imagine the job will be finished. I mean, they always want a government so small as to drown it in a bathtub, but in reality they just want all the control. I just cannot imagine that turnip can hold togethether the coalition he's trying to build and a populist agenda is unworkable in practice. So I think at least a north/south divide will happen, but we're so fractured and fragmented that I could see additional pockets breaking off if that happens.

I do not have a detailed map for how it happens, I just think he's polarizing enough, and looking to change enough that we will not have a recognizable country.

I sincerely hope that I am just overly paranoid and falling vicitm to a derangement syndrome but given how it went, how it ended, and expecially considering the rhetoric coming out of the campaign, I have little.

I honestly don't think it matters. I believe turnip will sweep in project 2025 plans, we already know the supreme court is fully in his bag. My personal belief is that if he's elected, our contry is on course for a soviet style breakup.

Thankfully mine wasn't surgery, just a nasty knock to the noggin and subsaquent internal bleeding, but thank you. Up and forward, all we can do. Keep fighting the good fight friend, and keep listening to the right sort of people :)

I don't get the decision matrix of these folks. if we're after effective action, we know for 100% certainty that a 3rd party will not get elected in this nation right now. so, the decision should be who is going to be easier, better or more effective to work with, and I see zero choice when faced with this reality.

I wholeheartedly, 100% would LOVE to have a socialist candidate elected (not even because I'm a socialist, I just want all the ideas to be weighed, and that's why we have checks and balances). I just am tired of folks who let perfect be the enemy of good.

I'm sorry to hear it but I'm also glad that things are looking up?

Been a rough one sounds like. I too am a year and a half out from a brain injury, thankfully my insurance covered most of it, but it didn't cover the basement flooding, wife's layoff or kids braces 😆. Election aside, things are also looking up for me.

In all honesty, take care, sorry you've been having troubles. I'm not trying to belittle them with mine, just know that you have friends out there who feel your pain.

Excellent recap, love seeing a similarly obsessed Majority Report fan out in the wild. How's it going friend?

oh, I get it. the target of my ire isn't just elmo, it's the fact that so many smoothbrains can't see the naked truth.

The fact that this obvious liar and fraudster is the worlds richest human has just broken my brain. My god humans are stupid.

as I have climbed higher in the corporate world, this is becoming clearer and clearer. people respond far better to a confident idiot than they do a pensive expert.
