Very few people can recognize that level of dissonance. They have twisted stuff in their minds so long it’s impossible to see it.

I have so many questions.
This guy is s total fake. The corn pome accent and the conservative outrage. He was a Democrat until it was obvious he’d never win in Louisiana so he switched.
This is way too accurate.
Profound words by a wise man.
mereo@lemmy.ca is correct. We’ll never fix anything in the US. I used to be hopefulbut there’s just now ay as long as people buy into the BS conservatives sell.
That’s an advantage of a high volume car like a Camry.
Most public transit in my state goes where you don’t want to go and takes 3 times as long to get there. I remember a while back when the tax renewal came up there was a story in the local paper about a woman who was using the bus to get to work and it took 2 hours for what was a 15 minute drive even in traffic.
Hopefully you won’t run into the problem I had with my older car- parts availability. It’s only going to get worse as cars get older. Especially with the electronics.
Agreed. M is definitely the sweet spot for tech right now.
I’ve never heard of pigeon management but I have heard something similar described as playing chess with a pigeon as someone who “knocks all the pieces over, shits on the board then struts aroind like they’ve won”.

I’m sure Ben Shapiro will work wokeness into it somehow.
Didn’t W divest a bunch of stuff and setup a blind trust for the same reason. And if I’m remembering correctly didn’t the peanut farm had been Carter’s family for a while so he gave up something that meant something more than money.
I’m pretty sure most of his properties are extremely leveraged.
I think the reason it was such an issue with Trump is I can’t think of another president that had the infrastructure (i.e. his hotels) to make revenue via emoluments.
He’s got to be fuming. He’s managed to go 75 years without ever being held accountable by anyone for anything. And now it’s happening. He’ll drain the RNC by August.
The fact that no bond companies would accept real property as a collateral for the bond and only liquid or easily liquified assets points to the properties being leveraged to the hilt. If he ends up having to pay even a portion of this and has to start selling properties we should see a true picture of his financial status.
Kind of has a Willy Wonka “no, don’t, stop” vibe
